AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
102 AM EST SUN JAN 5 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE OFFSHORE WILL BRING DRY WEATHER THROUGH TONIGHT AND
BRING MILDER AIR FOR SUNDAY AND MONDAY. THE LEADING EDGE OF THIS
MILDER AIR MAY CREATE SOME ICE IN PARTS OF WESTERN MASS AND
SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE LATE SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT. A COLD FRONT
WILL MOVE THROUGH NEW ENGLAND ON MONDAY FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER BURST
OF BITTER COLD. ANOTHER STORM MAY BRING SOME SNOW TOWARD THE END
OF THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THIS MORNING/...

1 AM UPDATE...

WIDE RANGE IN EARLY MORNING TEMPS FROM THE SINGLE DIGITS ACROSS
PARTS OF NORTHWEST MA/SOUTHWEST NH...WHERE WINDS HAVE GONE CALM.
THIS HAS ALLOWED FOR EXCELLENT RADIATIONAL COOLING CONDITIONS.
MEANWHILE...LOW LEVEL JET WAS ALLOWING FOR SOUTHWEST WINDS TO BLOW
OFF THE OCEAN HOLDING CURRENT TEMPS NEAR 40 ACROSS THE OUTER
ISLANDS. SHOULD SEE THIS LARGE  VARIABILITY IN TEMPS CONTINUE INTO
THE EARLY MORNING...WITH COLDEST READINGS REMAINING ACROSS THE
DISTANT INTERIOR.

ITS TOO DRY FOR ANY PRECIPITATION OVERNIGHT AND MAINLY JUST
EXPECT A FEW MID AND HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS PASSING OVER THE REGION.
PERHAPS SOME LOWER CLOUDS APPROACH THE SOUTH COAST NEAR DAYBREAK.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH 6 PM MONDAY/...
SUNDAY...
INCREASING MOISTURE OVER SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND AT 925 MB ON SUNDAY.
THIS LINES UP WITH THE CLOUDS OVER THE CAROLINAS STARTING TO MOVE
NORTH. SO WE EXPECT SKIES TO BECOME CLOUDY DURING THE MORNING AND
MIDDAY. CONCERN ABOUT EARLY MORNING PCPN IS LIMITED BY THE LOW
LEVEL SURFACE FLOW /DRY/ AS WELL AS THE LACK OF LIFT OVER OR THIS
SIDE OF NEW YORK CITY. MODEL QPF FROM THE NAM/GFS/GGEM/ECMWF IS
SOUTH OF NYC AT 12Z AND MOVING ACROSS CT AND RI AT 18Z. SO WE
EXPECT PCPN ONSET AROUND MIDDAY SOUTHWEST TO MID AFTERNOON NORTH.
THE GREATEST CONCERN IS THE PCPN TYPE. MILDER AIR MOVING UP FROM
THE SOUTHWEST WILL BRING TEMPERATURES UP WITH TIME. ALL MODELS
SHOW LOW LEVEL AGEOSTROPHIC WINDS IN A 30-35 KNOT DRAINAGE FLOW
FROM THE NORTH SUNDAY NIGHT. THIS WOULD SUGGEST COLD AIR BEING
TOUGH TO DISLODGE ESPECIALLY IN SOUTHERN NH AND WESTERN MASS.
BUT PRESSURE PATTERS SHOW HIGH PRESSURE MAINLY OVER THE
OCEAN...JUST A HINT OF A SMALL HIGH OVER THE MARITIMES THAT COULD
SERVE AS A FOCUS FOR MAINTAINING COLD AIR DRAINAGE OVER NEW
ENGLAND. TWO METER TEMPS SHOW LINGERING BELOW-FREEZING AIR IN
SOUTHERN NH/NORTHWEST MASS WITH THE GFS A LITTLE COLDER THAN THE
ECMWF. THE FORECAST HAS SOME INITIAL FREEZING RAIN IN THESE
AREAS STARTING MID AFTERNOON. A FREEZING RAIN ADVISORY IS BEING
ISSUED FOR SOUTHERN NH/NORTH-CENTRAL MASS/PARTS OF THE BERKSHIRE
EAST SLOPE.

SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY...
UPPER TROUGH DIGS OVER THE PLAINS WITH A BROAD SOUTHWEST FLOW OVER
THE EASTERN USA. SURFACE COLD FRONT IN THE GREAT LAKES/OHIO
VALLEY MOVES EAST BUT FORWARD PROGRESS SLOWS WITH TIME AS IT
BECOMES PARALLEL WITH THE UPPER FLOW. A 160 KNOT JET ROUNDS THE
BASE OF THE TROUGH AND GENERATES LOW PRESSURE WAVE ALONG THE
FRONT LATE SUNDAY/SUNDAY NIGHT. THIS WAVE MOVES NORTHEAST INTO
CANADA...PULLING A 40-50 KNOT LOW LEVEL JET ACROSS NEW ENGLAND AND
SWINGING THE SURFACE COLD FRONT EAST.

FOR US THIS MEANS INCREASING LIFT AND A STEADY FLOW OF MOISTURE
FOR CONVERSION TO PCPN THROUGH THE NIGHT AND INTO MONDAY MORNING.
TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN NEAR STEADY OR SLOWLY RISE OVERNIGHT.
THIS SHOULD SCOUR OUT ANY LINGERING COLD AIR IN THE
INTERIOR...CHANGING THE FREEZING RAIN TO RAIN. THERE IS ALSO
ENOUGH AIRMASS INSTABILITY...TOTALS WILL BE NEAR 50...FOR
SCATTERED THUNDER.

PRECIPITATION ENDS WITH THE COLD FRONT PASSAGE. TIMING OF THIS IS
SIMILAR AMONG THE VARIOUS MODELS...PLACING THE FRONT IN THE HUDSON
VALLEY AT 12Z MONDAY AND IN EASTERN MASS/RI AT 18Z. COLDER AIR
MOVES IN BEHIND THE FRONT AND MAY TRIGGER FALLING AFTERNOON
TEMPS. THIS COULD CHANGE ANY LINGERING RAIN TO SNOW SHORTLY BEFORE
ENDING...WITH A LIGHT ACCUMULATION.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
HIGHLIGHTS...

*COLD ARCTIC AIR FROM TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY
*OCEAN EFFECT SNOW POSSIBLE FOR CAPE AND ISLANDS
*WARM UP EXPECTED BEHIND A HIGH FOR LATE WEEK TO WEEKEND

MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT ON A CALMER WEEK AFTER THE LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM LEAVES. THE DISAGREEMENT OCCURS LATER IN THE WEEK (THURSDAY
TO FRIDAY) AS TO HOW FAR NORTH THE FLOW FROM THE GULF CARRYING
PRECIPITATION MOVES. ENSEMBLE MEANS ALL SHOW SOME
PRECIPITATION...BUT MINIMAL AMOUNTS. OPERATIONAL MODELS ALL SHOW
PRECIPITATION AROUND THE REGION...BUT DISAGREEMENT OCCURS AS TO
WHERE THE PRECIPITATION/FRONT ITSELF SETS UP.

TUESDAY...ONCE THE PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED COLD FRONT PASSES THROUGH
BEGINNING A PERIOD OF COLDER TEMPERATURES...RAIN SHOULD CHANGE TO
SNOW WITH ANY PRECIP BEHIND THE FRONT WITH MINIMAL ACCUMULATIONS.
THIS IS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE POLAR VORTEX FROM CANADA MOVING OVER
REGION. AS THE SOUTHERN AND EASTERN EDGES OF THE POLAR VORTEX MOVE
OUT TO SEA...THE JET AROUND THE VORTEX SETS UP OFF SHORE ALLOWING
SOME MOISTURE FROM THE SOUTH TO STREAM ALONG IT. NORTHWEST WINDS
DOMINATE THIS PERIOD...BUT THERE STILL MAY BE A CHANCE OF OCEAN
EFFECT SNOW ON THE CAPE AND ISLANDS DURING THE DAY AND INTO THE
NIGHT ESPECIALLY WITH COLD AIR ALOFT ALLOWING WARMER OCEAN AIR TO
RISE.

WEDNESDAY...FLOW DEAMPLIFIES SIGNALING A PERIOD OF SETTLED WEATHER.
THE FLOW IS STILL IN FROM THE NORTHWEST/WEST SO COLD AIR IS ALLOWED
TO CONTINUE TO MOVE IN. A HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM FROM CANADA MOVES
SOUTH OF THE REGION CONTINUING THE CALM WEATHER.

THURSDAY...COLD AIR IS STILL AROUND DURING THIS PERIOD...BUT AS THE
HIGH PRESSURE FROM THE SOUTH MOVES TO THE NORTHEAST...MOISTURE IS
ALLOWED TO TRAIL ALONG THE WESTERN SIDE FROM ITS SOUTHWEST WINDS.
THE MIXTURE OF THE COLD AIR AND MOISTURE SHOULD CREATE SNOW
SHOWERS/FLURRIES DURING THE DAY. DISAGREEMENT BETWEEN MODELS OCCURS
HERE AS TO HOW MUCH PRECIP AND ITS PLACEMENT.

FRIDAY...HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM BEHIND THE PREVIOUS FRONT MOVES IN
WITH THE NORTHWEST FLOW. CALM AND MODERATING TEMPERATURES IS
SIGNALED DURING THIS PERIOD.

SATURDAY...BEHIND THE HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM...WARM AIR MOVES IN
ACCOMPANIED BY A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM AND MOISTURE FROM THE GULF.
THIS IS ASSOCIATED WITH DIFLUENT FLOW SO PRECIPITATION IS POSSIBLE.
ONCE AGAIN...THE QUESTION IS HOW FAR NORTH THIS PRECIPITATION
EXTENDS. THE ECMWF BRINGS ONLY AS FAR NORTH AS WEST VIRGINIA WHERE
AS THE GFS BRINGS IT UP TO THE NORTHEAST. ENSEMBLE MEMBERS HAVE
QUITE A LARGE SPREAD FOR THIS EVENT.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

LOW...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT.
MODERATE...30 TO 60 PERCENT.
HIGH...GREATER THAN 60 PERCENT.

SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH MONDAY/...

TODAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.  MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS INTO MID MORNING
WILL GRADUALLY LOWER TO MVFR CIGS FROM SOUTH TO NORTH AS THE DAY
WEARS ON. A FEW LIGHT SHOWERS MAY AFFECT THE REGION
DURING THE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING...BUT POCKETS OF LIGHT FREEZING
RAIN/DRIZZLE ARE POSSIBLE WHERE TEMPS HANG CLOSE TO FREEZING
NORTHWEST OF I-95.

TONIGHT...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.  CONDITIONS DETERIORATE TO
MVFR-IFR LEVELS THIS EVENING WITH MOST LOCATIONS EVENTUALLY GOING
DOWN TO IFR LATER TONIGHT.  THIS A RESULT IN INCREASING BOUNDARY
LAYER MOISTURE...SO EXPECT LOW CLOUDS AND FOG TO FORM. POCKETS OF
FREEZING RAIN WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE IN THE EVENING ACROSS PORTIONS
OF THE INTERIOR...WITH RAIN SHOWERS ELSEWHERE.  IN FACT...MAY EVEN
SEE AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM AFTER MIDNIGHT.  THE OTHER CONCERN WILL
BE FOR LLWS AS A LOW LEVEL JET DEVELOPS ACROSS THE INVERSION.

MONDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.  MAINLY IFR CONDITIONS IN SHOWERS AND
PERHAPS AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM OR TWO.  IMPROVEMENT FROM WEST TO
EAST DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING AS COLD FRONT BRINGS
DRIER AIR INTO THE REGION.

KBOS TAF...MODERATE CONFIDENCE IN TAF TODAY AND TONIGHT.

KBDL TAF...MODERATE CONFIDENCE IN TAF TODAY AND TONIGHT.

OUTLOOK...MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY...

MONDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY...HIGH CONFIDENCE.  MAINLY VFR. MAY SEE
BRIEF LOCAL MVFR-IFR CONDITIONS ACROSS NANTUCKET AND OUTER CAPE IN
OCEAN EFFECT SNOWS AT TIMES.

THURSDAY...VFR WITH POSSIBLE MVFR DEVELOPING WITH APPROACHING
STORM SYSTEM.

&&

.MARINE...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

LOW...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT.
MODERATE...30 TO 60 PERCENT.
HIGH...GREATER THAN 60 PERCENT.

NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

TONIGHT...GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS OF 20 TO 25 KNOTS WILL CONTINUE
THIS EVENING AND THEN DIMINISH OVERNIGHT. SEAS OF 5 TO 7 FEET
WILL LINGER THIS EVENING OVER THE EXPOSED WATERS. A SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY CONTINUES.

SUNDAY...WINDS AND SEAS DIMINISH THROUGH THE DAY...AND REMAIN
BELOW SMALL CRAFT LEVELS.

SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY...INCREASING WINDS ABOVE THE SURFACE WITH
40-50 KNOT SOUTHWEST WINDS EXPECTED AT 2000-3000 FEET. THIS WILL
SUPPORT INCREASING SOUTHEAST WINDS SUNDAY NIGHT AND SOUTHWEST
WINDS ON MONDAY. GUSTS WILL REACH 25 TO 30 KNOTS ESPECIALLY ON
MONDAY. THE INCREASING WINDS WILL SUPPORT BUILDING SEAS WITH 5 TO
8 FOOT SEAS EXPECTED ON THE EXPOSED WATERS MONDAY. A SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY WILL BE NEEDED.

OUTLOOK...MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY...

MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE.  A
TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT BETWEEN LOW PRESSURE IN THE MARITIMES AND
HIGH PRESSURE IN THE MID-ATLANTIC WILL KEEP STRONG WESTERLY WINDS
OVER THE WATERS THROUGH MUCH OF THIS TIME.  BECAUSE OF THIS...SEAS
WILL DIMINISH ONLY VERY GRADUALLY.  WESTERLY WINDS TO NEAR GALE
FORCE WILL NOT ONLY NECESSITATE THE ISSUANCE OF SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORIES BUT WILL ALSO INCREASE THE LIKELIHOOD OF FREEZING
SPRAY...PARTICULARLY MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY. THERE IS A LOW
PROBABILITY OF HEAVY FREEZING SPRAY...BUT LIGHT TO MODERATE FREEZING
SPRAY IS MORE LIKELY.

THURSDAY...WINDS AND SEAS DIMINISH AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE
REGION.
