AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
1103 AM EST WED DEC 10 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
STORM CENTER WOBBLING AS IT WEAKENS ACROSS SOUTH COASTAL NEW
ENGLAND THROUGH THE MAJORITY OF THE WEEK WILL PERSIST WITH PERIODS
OF LIGHT SHOWERS AND SNOWS. IMPROVING CONDITIONS EXPECTED SUNDAY
AND ESPECIALLY EARLY NEXT WEEK AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE
WEST.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
1040 AM UPDATE...
LOW PRES ROTATING ACROSS SE MA AND CAPE COD THIS MORNING AS LIGHT
PRECIP ROTATES AROUND THE DEEPENING UPPER LEVEL VORTEX AS IT TAKES
SHAPE ACROSS SE NY INTO W MA/CT. PRECIP FILLING IN ACROSS E MA
WITH BEST SHOT OF PRECIP THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON ACROSS CAPE COD
AND THE ISLANDS AS WELL AS ALONG IMMEDIATE E COASTAL MA. WITH
CYCLONIC FLOW ACROSS THE REGION...COULD SEE LIGHT PRECIP BREAK OUT
PRETTY MUCH ANYWHERE DURING THE AFTERNOON. KEPT MAINLY CHANCE POPS
ACROSS MOST OF THE REGION BUT DID INCREASE POPS TO LIKELY OVER THE
CAPE AND ISLANDS WHERE BEST SHOT OF PRECIP LOOKS TO OCCUR.

WITH LIGHT FLOW AND SOME THINNING OF THE CLOUDS MAINLY OVER WESTERN
AREAS...TEMPS LOOK TO HOLD STEADY THROUGH SUNSET. HAVE ADJUSTED
FOR THIS TREND. OTHERWISE...REMAINDER OF FORECAST LOOKS GOOD BUT
DID UPDATE TO BRING CONDITIONS CURRENT.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...

LOW PRESSURE CONTINUES TO OCCLUDE ACROSS THE NE U.S. AS IT
REMAINS CUTOFF FROM THE MARITIME FLOW ROUND WHICH WARM...MOIST
HIGHER THETA-E AIR UNDERGOES CYCLONIC ISENTROPIC ASCENT
/TROWALING/ IN A COMMA HEAD FASHION.

A COMBINATION OF WRAP AROUND ASCENDING MOISTURE REARWARD OF THE
LOW ABOVE A LOW-LEVEL DRAW OF COLDER AIR S/W OUT OF CANADA LENDS
TO THE PERSISTENT MOISTENING OF THE LOW TO MID LEVEL PROFILE
THROUGH THE DENDRITIC GROWTH ZONE REGION /SUBSEQUENTLY RESULTING
IN THE RETURN PRESENCE OF ICE WITHIN THE ATMOSPHERIC COLUMN/. THUS
EXPECT THE LIKELIHOOD OF SNOWS THAT EXPAND W TO E THROUGH THE
FORECAST PERIOD WITH THE GREATEST AMOUNTS ALONG THE W-SLOPES OF
HIGHER TERRAIN PER OROGRAPHIC LIFT PROCESSES BENEATH MODEST QG-
FORCING /MUCH OF THAT FORCING OCCURRING WITHIN THE LOWEST 5 KFT
AGL/.

LOOKING AT ONE DECENT SHOT TOWARDS THE LATER HALF OF TODAY INTO
THIS EVENING WHERE INGREDIENTS COME TOGETHER ACROSS W NEW ENGLAND
BENEATH THE H85 LOW WHERE LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE OF H925-H85 FLOW
LENDS TO PRONOUNCED LIFT UP AGAINST HIGHER TERRAIN BENEATH THE
MAIN MID LEVEL IMPULSE. COULD END UP THAT THE BULK OF MOISTURE
RESIDES ALONG THE W- SLOPES OF THE BERKSHIRES WHERE THE NOSE OF
THE AFOREMENTIONED TROWAL RESIDES. NEVERTHELESS AGREE WITH THE
PREVIOUS FORECASTER OF THE NEED FOR A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY FOR
THE E SLOPES OF THE BERKSHIRES AS THERE IS THE EXPECTATION OF 2 TO
4 INCHES OF SNOWFALL /W FRANKLIN AND W HAMPSHIRE COUNTY MA/
BEGINNING THIS AFTERNOON AND CONTINUING INTO THURSDAY MORNING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY/...

MAJORITY OF THE FORECAST GUIDANCE SUGGESTS A CONTINUALLY WEAKENING
LOW OVER THE NE-CONUS AS IT UNDERGOES OCCLUSION. RETROGRADING N/W
AS THE TROWALLING OF MOISTURE IS STRETCHED AND ERODED BY THE DRAW
OF DRIER AIR INTO THE SYSTEM...LOW LEVEL FORCING AND DYNAMICS
WEAKEN.

STILL AN APPRECIABLE AMOUNT OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WITH THE
PRESENCE OF ICE WITHIN THE ATMOSPHERIC COLUMN. DESPITE THE LACK OF
LIFT...CAN NOT RULE OUT FLURRIES WITH THE DRAW OF COLDER AIR
REARWARD OF THE LOW. NOT ANTICIPATING APPRECIABLE ACCUMULATIONS TO
WARRANT HEADLINES THOUGH CAN NOT RULE OUT SNOWFALL AMOUNTS UP TO
AROUND AN INCH...THE GREATER PROBABILITY OF WHICH WILL BE ALONG
THE W SLOPES OF HIGHER TERRAIN WHERE OROGRAPHIC LIFT IS MAXIMIZED
/I.E. BERKSHIRES AND THE WORCESTER-TOLLAND HILLS/.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
HIGHLIGHTS...

 * REMAINING UNSETTLED WITH SCT RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS THROUGH THE END
   OF THIS WEEK...AND POSSIBLY INTO SAT
 * IMPROVING CONDITIONS SUNDAY AND ESPECIALLY EARLY NEXT WEEK

CLOSED LOW WILL MEANDER ACROSS NEW ENGLAND THROUGH THE END OF THIS
WEEK...AND LIKELY INTO THIS WEEKEND AS NORTH ATLANTIC BLOCKING IS
WELL ESTABLISHED. TYPICALLY THESE BLOCKS ARE SLOWER TO BREAK DOWN
THAN GUIDANCE SUGGESTS...SO THREAT OF ISOLATED TO SCATTERED
RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS WILL LIKELY PERSIST INTO SATURDAY. CERTAINLY
NOT LOOKING AT WIDESPREAD PRECIP AND MOST OF THE TIME WILL BE
DRY...BUT THERE WILL BE RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS AT TIMES AS COLD POOL
ALOFT WITH 500 MB TEMPS -25 TO -30C AND DEEPER MOISTURE AXIS WILL
BE PRESENT INTO SATURDAY. CERTAINLY CLOUDS WILL BE TOUGH TO BREAK
UP AS WELL.

IMPROVING CONDITIONS EXPECTED BY SUNDAY AND ESPECIALLY EARLY NEXT
WEEK. THE CLOSED LOW AND COLD POOL ARE FINALLY FORECAST TO MOVE
AWAY FROM THE NEW ENGLAND...SURFACE AND UPPER LEVEL RIDGING
BUILDING IN...AND GOOD DRYING IN THE LOW AND MID LEVELS. BY NEXT
TUESDAY...THE NEXT NORTHERN STREAM SHORTWAVE SHOULD BE APPROACHING
AND WE COULD HAVE A FRONTAL PASSAGE WITH A LOW PROBABILITY FOR
SHOWERS.

WE USED A BLEND OF AVAILABLE GUIDANCE. LOOKING AT SLIGHTLY BELOW
TEMPERATURES THROUGH THIS WEEKEND...MODERATING A BIT EARLY NEXT
WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION /16Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

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

TERRAIN. MAY SEE BRIEF IMPROVEMENT TO MVFR FROM TIME TO TIME.
LARGE RANGE OF VSBYS...GENERALLY IFR THOUGH OCCASIONAL IMPROVEMENT
TO MVFR TO LOW END VFR ACROSS CAPE AND ISLANDS.

TONIGHT INTO THURSDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

MVFR-IFR CIGS AND VFR-MVFR VSBYS OVERNIGHT. WILL SEE IMPROVEMENT
DURING THURSDAY WITH LOW END VFR TO MVFR CIGS. MIX OF MVFR-IFR
CIGS WITH THE W-E PRESENCE OF SNOW MAINLY ACROSS CT VALLEY TO E
SLOPES OF BERKSHIRES. WILL SEE INCREASING SW WINDS THROUGH THE
FORECAST PERIOD THE STRONGEST OF WHICH WITH GUSTS UP TO 30 KTS
ALONG THE S COAST TERMINALS INCLUDING CAPE COD AND THE ISLANDS.

KBOS TERMINAL...MODERATE CONFIDENCE IN TAF.

SHORT TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...HIGH CONFIDENCE.

SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES CONTINUING AS SEAS GRADUALLY DIMINISH.
WILL ALLOW THE SMALL CRAFTS TO DROP FOR BOSTON HARBOR AND
NARRAGANSETT BAY. THIS A RESULT OF THE LINGERING LOW CENTER WHICH
WILL WOBBLE ACROSS THE REGION TODAY INTO TONIGHT...LIFTING N/W
INTO THURSDAY. A TIGHTENING PRESSURE GRADIENT ALONG THE SOUTHERN
PERIPHERY OF THIS LOW PRESSURE ALLOWS FOR INCREASING S/SW-FLOW IN
EXCESS OF 25 KTS.

OUTLOOK...THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY...GRADIENT RELAXES AND EXPECT DIMINISHING
WINDS AND SEAS. WEST WINDS FRI GRADUALLY VEERING TO NORTH BY SAT.

A BIT AS GRADIENT INCREASES. CHANCE FOR GUSTS TO 25 KT...
ESPECIALLY ACROSS EASTERN WATERS.
