COD...

VERY MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIR MASS AHEAD OF A SLOW MOVING FRONT
BRING SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THOUGH THIS
EVENING...ESPECIALLY AREAS NORTH AND WEST OF BOSTON. MORE
WIDESPREAD SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL ARE
EXPECTED FRIDAY INTO FRIDAY NIGHT. TROPICAL STORM ARTHUR WILL
PASS SOUTHEAST OF OUR REGION FRIDAY NIGHT SATURDAY HAVING A
SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON THE MARINE COMMUNITY. HIGH PRESSURE THEN
BUILDS OVER NEW ENGLAND WITH FAIR AND DRY WEATHER FOR THE WEEKEND.

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
THROUGH 10 PM... LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS MOVING IN FROM NEW YORK
WILL ARRIVE AT THE EAST COAST ABOUT 10PM TO 1030 PM. OBSERVATIONS
AT POU SHOWED PEAK GUST OF 39 KNOTS...SO AT LEAST INITIALLY WE
WILL EXPECT STRONG GUSTS WITH THESE STORMS. ADJUSTMENTS TO THE
REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST TO MATCH CURRENT OBS. A SVR TSTM WATCH
CONTINUES THROUGH 10 PM FOR WESTERN/CENTRAL/NORTHEAST PARTS OF
OUR AREA.

TONIGHT... REMAINS OF THE COLD FRONT WILL SETTLE OVER SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND. LINE OF SHOWERS/TSTMS OVER CENTRAL NY/PA MOVING NORTHEAST
EXTRAPOLATES TO WESTERN NEW ENGLAND AROUND 10-11 PM. MEANWHILE A
PLUME OF MOISTURE EXTENDING NORTH FROM HURRICANE ARTHUR WILL FEED
INTO THE FRONT AND GENERATE MORE SHOWERS/TSTMS WITH HEAVY DOWNPOURS.
AND THE UPPER JET WILL SWEEP OVER NEW ENGLAND PROVIDING DYNAMIC
SUPPORT. THIS WILL CONTINUE A CONCERN FOR FLASH FLOODING OVERNIGHT.
WE WILL CONTINUE THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR THE CT VALLEY FROM
CHESHIRE CO NH TO HAMPDEN CO MASS. MAY NEED TO  EXPAND IT BASED ON
THE EVENTUAL EXTENT OF AFTERNOON CONVECTION.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...

DURING FRIDAY NIGHT ARTHUR MAKES ITS CLOSEST APPROACH TO SOUTHERN
NEW ENGLAND. THE ECMWF AND NAM TAKE THE CENTER OF ARTHUR JUST S/E OF
THE 40N 70W BENCHMARK...WHILE THE GFS CONTINUES TO BE CLOSER TO
NANTUCKET.  THE NHC TRACK CONTINUES TO HAVE ARTHUR MOST LIKELY
PASSING NEAR OR JUST S/E OF THE BENCHMARK. ARTHUR WILL LIKELY BE
CLOSE ENOUGH TO BRING THE THREAT OF HEAVY RAINS.  THE MAIN HEAVY
RAIN THREAT INTO FRIDAY NIGHT LOOKS TO BE ACROSS EASTERN MA AND RI.
RAINS FROM ARTHUR LATE FRI/FRI NIGHT COULD TOTAL 2 TO 4 INCHES IN
THAT AREA...WITH LOCALIZED HIGHER AMOUNTS POSSIBLE. IN

CROSS THE AREA DURING THE MONDAY NIGHT TO TUESDAY
TIMEFRAME...BRINGING THE RENEWED CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS.

WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY...IT IS POSSIBLE THAT A WEAK HIGH PRESSURE
