AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
955 AM EDT SAT SEP 6 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP THROUGH THE AREA TODAY WITH SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS. HIGH PRESSURE BEHIND THE COLD FRONT WILL BRING DRY
WEATHER AND NEAR SEASONABLE TEMPS TOMORROW. A FEW SHOWERS ARE
POSSIBLE AT TIMES TUE THROUGH NEXT FRI...BUT THE MAJORITY OF THE
PERIOD WILL LIKELY FEATURE DRY WEATHER. JUST BELOW NORMAL TEMPS
EARLY IN THE WEEK MAY MODERATE TO A BIT ABOVE NORMAL BY NEXT
THU/FRI.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
955 AM UPDATE...

AN AREA OF STRATUS/LOW CLOUDS CONTINUED TO SLOWLY ERODE ACROSS
WESTERN AND SOUTHERN SECTIONS OF OUR REGION THIS MORNING. THIS A
RESULT OF DEEP LOW LEVEL MOISTURE THAT HAS BEEN TRANSPORTED
NORTHWARD. STILL EXPECTING THESE LOW CLOUDS TO DISSIPATE BY LATE
MORNING. GIVEN THIS CLOUD EROSION...STILL EXPECT PLENTY OF TIME
FOR DESTABILIZATION AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT AS DEWPOINTS REMAIN
AROUND 70. LATEST SPC MESOANALYSIS ALREADY SHOWS MUCH OF SOUTHERN
NEW ENGLAND WITH MOST UNSTABLE CAPES IN EXCESS OF 1000 J/KG.
EFFECTIVE BULK SHEAR OF 20-30 KTS ALREADY IN PLACE...BUT NOTING
STRONGER SHEAR ACROSS CENTRAL NY STATE...WHICH SHOULD HEAD OUR WAY
FOR THIS AFTERNOON. WILL NEED TO CONTINUE TO MONITOR SHEAR VALUES
THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON. ONCE THE LOW CLOUDS FINALLY BREAK UP...
THINKING MOST UNSTABLE CAPES IN EXCESS OF 2000 J/KG ARE IN REACH.
THIS COMBINATION OF SHEAR AN INSTABILITY WILL LIKELY LEAD TO A FEW
STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS LATER TODAY.

MAIN CHANGES THIS MORNING WERE TO SKY COVER AND TEMPERATURES TO
REFLECT OBSERVED TRENDS. STILL THINKING THE TIMING OF THE COLD
FRONT AND CONVECTIVE WEATHER LOOKS REASONABLE.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...

THE PRIMARY ISSUE STILL REMAINS TORRENTIAL RAINFALL WITH THE
POSSIBILITY OF LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING. PWATS NEAR 2.0 INCHES
/2-3 STD DEVIATIONS ABOVE NORMAL/...DEEP WARM CLOUD DEPTHS AND LOW
MAGNITUDE CORFIDI VECTORS SUPPORT HEAVY RAIN OUT OF THIS
CONVECTION WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF SLOW MOVING OR EVEN
BACKBUILDING STORMS. RAINFALL RATES OF 2.0+ INCHES AN HOUR ARE NOT
OUT OF THE QUESTION. THIS COULD EASILY CAUSE LOCALIZED FLASH
FLOODING...ESPECIALLY IF ANY STORMS STALL OVER AN URBAN AREA OR AN
AREA WHERE DRAINAGE IS TYPICALLY POOR.

REGARDING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WITH PLENTY OF INSTABILITY TO WORK
WITH...THE FACT THAT IT STILL LOOKS LIKE SHEAR LAGS A FEW HOURS
BEHIND THE FRONTAL PASSAGE MAY NOT MATTER QUITE AS MUCH. STILL
NOTE ABOUT 25 KT OF 0-6KM SHEAR AHEAD OF THE FRONT...AND ITS NOT
OUT OF THE QUESTION A SHORT PERIOD WHERE 30-40 KT COINCIDE WITH
THE INSTABILITY AND A LOW LVL BOUNDARY TO SUPPORT A STRONGER
DISCRETE STORM. THESE CELLS MAY LIE AHEAD OF WHAT MAY BE A LINE
OF CONVECTION THAT MESOSCALE MODELS ARE HINTING AT. THE PRIMARY
ISSUE REMAINS STRONG GUSTY WINDS FROM ELEVATED CORES POTENTIALLY
SUPPORTING A WET MICROBURST WITH SHALLOW INVERTED-V SOUNDINGS. OR
STRAIGHT-LINE ALONG AN ORGANIZED BAND. HOWEVER...MODEST HAIL-CAPE
OF AROUND 500J/KG COULD PRODUCE SOME ISOLATED SEVERE HAIL SHOULD
ROTATING UPDRAFTS BECOME APPARENT. FINALLY...DO NOTE THAT WITH THE
ONSET OF STRONGER SHEAR LATER...THERE IS A BRIEF SPIKE IN NEAR
SFC HELICITY AND EHI. THANKS TO HIGH DWPTS SUPPORTIVE OF LOW
LCLS...A BRIEF TORNADO IS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION. ALL OF THESE
FACTORS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH SPC DAY 1 PROBS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM SUNDAY/...
TONIGHT...
COLD FRONT WILL BE MOVING SLOWLY OFFSHORE BETWEEN 00Z AND 06Z.
WITH SOME SHEAR LEFTOVER AND MOISTURE POOLING...COULD SEE SOME
CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY LINGER THOUGH ABOUT MIDNIGHT /04Z/ ESPECIALLY
SRN CT/RI AND SE MA. NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION SOME THREAT FOR HEAVY
RAIN AND SEVERE LINGERS AS WELL AS LONG AS THIS CONVECTION IS
MAINTAINED. HOWEVER...WITH THE FRONT SHIFTING OFFSHORE...THE LOSS
OF DIURNAL HEAT SUPPORT AND GRADUAL ENTRAINMENT OF DRY AIR FROM
THE NW...SUSPECT ACTIVITY WILL BE ON THE WIND DOWN BETWEEN 00Z
AND 04Z...LEAVING SOME -SHRA IN IT/S WAKE. HAVE TIMED THE SLIGHTLY
SLOWER POPS ACCORDINGLY. OTHERWISE...OUTSIDE OF SOME FOG DUE TO
LEFTOVER GROUND MOISTURE...ANOTHER SOMEWHAT MILD /ALTHOUGH COOLER
THAN FRI NIGHT/ NIGHT IS EXPECTED AS REMNANT CLOUDS WILL TAKE SOME
TIME TO DIMINISH.

SUN...
IMPROVEMENT DAY. HUMIDITY DIMINISHES AS DWPTS DROP BACK INTO THE
LOW 50S AND EVEN POSSIBLY 40S WITH FULL MIXING INTO THE AFTERNOON.
COLD ADVECTION ALOFT WILL ALLOW H85 TEMPS TO FALL BACK TO AROUND
+10C. SO WITH THAT MIXING HIGHS SHOULD REVIVAL AROUND THE MID
70S...WITH A FEW UPPER 70S POSSIBLE. THIS IS CLOSER TO...IF NOT
EVEN SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL FOR EARLY SEPTEMBER. OTHER THAN A FEW
DIURNAL CLOUDS OR LEFTOVER CONVECTIVE CI...MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES ARE
LIKELY.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
HIGHLIGHTS...

* DRY WEATHER WITH PLEASANT TEMPS ON MON
* A FEW SHOWERS POSSIBLE AT TIMES TUE THROUGH FRI BUT NOT A WASHOUT
* TEMPS MODERATE TO NEAR OR JUST ABOVE NORMAL BY THE END OF NEXT WEEK

DETAILS...

SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY...

HIGH PRESSURE NOSING DOWN FROM NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND WILL RESULT IN
NEAR TO JUST BELOW NORMAL TEMPS.  LOW TEMPS SUN NIGHT WILL BE IN THE
40S ACROSS PORTIONS OF SOUTHWEST MA/NORTHWEST MA TO MAINLY THE 50S
ELSEWHERE.  HIGH TEMPS MON WILL MAINLY BE IN THE LOW TO MID 70S...BUT
SOME UPPER 60S ARE POSSIBLE ALONG THE EASTERN MA COAST WITH GUSTY
NORTHEAST WINDS OFF THE OCEAN.

MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY...

LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST OVER THIS TIME.  A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE
EMERGING OFF THE MID ATLANTIC COAST WILL LIFT NORTHEAST.  DEPENDING
ON HOW CLOSE TO THE COAST THE SYSTEM TRACKS...WILL DETERMINE IF WE
HAVE A PERIOD OF SHOWERS OR REMAIN DRY.  CURRENT INDICATIONS ARE THE
BEST CHANCE OF ANY PRECIPITATION WILL BE SOUTH OF THE MA PIKE AND
ESPECIALLY FAR SOUTHEAST NEW ENGLAND...BUT EVEN HERE THAT REMAINS
UNCERTAIN. HIGH TEMPS WILL BE A BIT BELOW NORMAL IN THE UPPER 60S
AND LOWER 70S.  COOLEST TEMPS LIKELY TO BE FOUND ALONG THE COAST
WITH ONSHORE FLOW.

WEDNESDAY...

LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST CONTINUES OVER THIS TIME.  APPEARS THAT THE
WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE WILL HAVE PASSED TO THE NORTHEAST OF THE REGION
BY WEDNESDAY.  ODDS FAVOR MAINLY DRY WEATHER ON WEDNESDAY...BUT
STILL CAN/T RULE OUT A FEW LINGERING SHOWERS ON THE COAST.

THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...

BY THU AND FRI...APPEARS TEMPS SHOULD MODERATE TO JUST ABOVE
NORMAL LEVELS AS FLOW ALOFT TURNS MORE SOUTHWEST.  THE NEXT COLD
FRONT MAY TRIGGER A ROUND OF SCATTERED SHOWERS THU AND/OR FRI.  LOW
CONFIDENCE ON TIMING...BUT RIGHT NOW THURSDAY LOOKS LIKE THE BETTER
DAY FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS.

&&

.AVIATION /14Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

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

SHORT TERM...THROUGH SUNDAY...

THROUGH 16Z...MODERATE CONFIDENCE. MAINLY MVFR/IFR CIGS ACROSS
THE WESTERN AND SOUTHERN SECTIONS OF THE REGION THIS MORNING. SLOW
IMPROVEMENT TO CONDITIONS...WITH VSBY IMPROVING FIRST. EXPECTING
MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS BY LATE MORNING MOST LOCATIONS.

THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH OVERNIGHT...MOST PLACES EXPERIENCE SOME
VFR THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. HOWEVER A COLD FRONT
APPROACHING...THEN CROSSING TONIGHT WILL BRING SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TO THE REGION WITH REDUCTIONS TO MVFR/IFR AT TIMES
FROM NW-SE. SOME STORMS COULD PRODUCE HEAVY RAIN AND GUSTY WINDS
AND/OR HAIL. THESE STORMS COME WILL GRADUALLY WIND DOWN BETWEEN
00Z AND 04Z TONIGHT...WITH SOME PATCHY FOG POSSIBLE IN ITS WAKE.
WINDS SHIFT TO THE NW BEHIND THE COLD FRONT AND MAY BRIEFLY GUST
TO 20-25 KT.

SUN...
MAINLY VFR BY MORNING.  NW WINDS.

KBOS TERMINAL...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TRENDS...LOWER CONFIDENCE IN
EXACT TIMING.

KBDL TERMINAL...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TRENDS...LOWER CONFIDENCE IN
EXACT TIMING.

OUTLOOK...SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...

SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY...HIGH CONFIDENCE. VFR CONDITIONS OTHER THAN
THE RISK FOR SOME LATE NIGHT/EARLY MORNING PATCHY GROUND FOG IN THE
TYPICALLY PRONE LOCATIONS.

TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...LOW CONFIDENCE.  A PERIOD OF MVFR-IFR
CONDITIONS AND A FEW SHOWERS ARE POSSIBLE TUE INTO EARLY
WED...WITH BEST CHANCE NEAR THE COAST.  THIS WILL DEPEND ON WHETHER OR NOT
A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE OFF THE MID ATLANTIC TRACKS CLOSE ENOUGH TO
THE OUR REGION.  OTHERWISE...VFR CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE.

&&

.MARINE...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

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

THROUGH TONIGHT...MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE. AS A COLD FRONT
APPROACHES THE WATERS FROM THE NW SW WINDS MAY BRIEFLY GUST NEAR
25 KT NEAR SHORE THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING. DECIDED TO
HOIST A SCA FOR THE NEAR SHORE WATERS OF MARTHAS VINEYARD
SOUND/BUZZARDS BAY/NANTUCKET SOUND AS WELL AS CAPE COD BAY FROM
2 PM UNTIL 7 PM.

SEAS SHOULD GENERALLY REMAIN BELOW 5 FT. ONLY CAVEAT WILL BE SOME SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS WHICH MAY CROSS THE WATERS LATE THIS AFTERNOON
AND EVENING. ISOLATED STRONG TO DAMAGING WIND GUSTS AND DANGEROUS
CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING ARE POSSIBLE WITH THE STORMS. WINDS
SHIFT TO THE NW LATE.

SUN...HIGH CONFIDENCE.
HIGH PRES BUILDS OVER FROM THE N...MAINLY QUIET BOATING WEATHER
RETURNS.

OUTLOOK...SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...

SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY...MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE.  HIGH
PRESSURE TO THE NORTH AND A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE TO THE SOUTH WILL
GENERATE A PERSISTENT NORTHEAST FLOW OF AIR AT THE SURFACE.
NORTHEAST WINDS MAY GUST AT TIMES TO BETWEEN 20 AND 25 KNOTS...WITH
THE STRONGEST WINDS MOST LIKELY ACROSS THE SOUTHERN WATERS.  SEAS
SHOULD ALSO BUILD TO ABOVE SCA THRESHOLDS ACROSS THE OUTER-WATERS
MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY FROM THIS LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM.

WEDNESDAY...MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE.  LEFT OVER NORTHEAST SCA
SWELL REMAINS POSSIBLE ACROSS THE OUTER-WATERS INTO WEDNESDAY IN THE
WAKE OF THE DEPARTING WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE.
