AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
113 PM EST WED JAN 8 2014

.SYNOPSIS...

COLD WEATHER FROM AN ARCTIC AIRMASS WILL CONTINUE INTO TONIGHT...
BUT WITH WEAKER WINDS. TEMPERATURES WILL WARM LATE THIS WEEK INTO
THE WEEKEND WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL AND STRONG WINDS EXPECTED
LATE SATURDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT. MAINLY DRY AND CONTINUED MILD
WEATHER EXPECTED EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...

1 PM UPDATE...

NO MAJOR CHANGES TO THE FORECAST. ABUNDANT SUNSHINE HAS ALLOWED
FOR CONTINUED WARMING OF SURFACE TEMPERATURES INTO THE TEENS WITH
HIGHER ELEVATIONS REPORTING SINGLE DIGITS. WITH HIGH PRES BUILDING
NORTH FROM THE SOUTHEASTERN CONUS...WINDS ARE BEGINNING TO
DIMINISH WITH SEVERAL LOCATIONS ALREADY REPORTING LIGHT AND
VARIABLE WEST WINDS. HIGHS STILL FORECAST TO REACH INTO THE TEENS
TO LOW-20S ACROSS THE COASTAL PLAINS.

OCEAN-EFFECT CLOUDS STILL PERSISTING...IMPACTING BLOCK ISLAND AND
NANTUCKET.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/...

TONIGHT...
HIGH PRES BEGINS TO CREST OVER FROM THE SW ALTHOUGH WILL BE
ACCOMPANIED BY A WEAKENED SHORTWAVE PASSAGE DURING THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS. THE HIGH LOOKS TO CONTINUE TO SUPPLY A DRY COLUMN SO THE
ONLY IMPACTS FROM THIS WEAKENED WAVE LOOK TO BE SOME MID CLOUDS
BUILDING OVER ESPECIALLY FROM THE S. ALSO...CONTINUED RISK FOR
SOME LIGHT OCEAN EFFECT SNOWFALL ALONG THE ISLANDS AS WINDS REMAIN
OUT OF THE W-NW AND WEAK COLD ADVECTION OCCURS WITH THE WAVE
PASSAGE. IT WILL ONCE AGAIN DEPEND ON EXACT TRAJECTORY AND BANDING
SETUP...BUT THE RISK FOR SOME LIGHT SNOWFALL IS NON-ZERO.
OTHERWISE...THE WARMER MID LVL TEMPS AND EXPECTED CLOUD COVER WILL
KEEP MIN TEMPS WARMER THAN PREVIOUS NIGHTS...RANGING FROM THE
UPPER SINGLE DIGITS TO JUST SHY OF 20F.

THU...
1035+ HPA HIGH PRES CRESTS OVER THE REGION DURING THE DAY THU WITH
CLEARING SKIES THROUGH THE MORNING AND CONTINUED MID AND LOW LVL
WARMING FROM ATTENDANT RIDGING. MIXING SHOULD ALLOW HIGHS TO
REACH INTO THE 20S TO LOW 30S AT MOST LOCATIONS...STILL BELOW
NORMAL...BUT WARMER THAN THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS. DRY WX
PREVAILS UNDER STRONG SUBSIDENCE.

&&

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

HIGHLIGHTS...

*  GRADUALLY WARMING TOWARDS THE END OF THE WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND
*  LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN AND STRONG WINDS LIKELY LATE SAT INTO EARLY
   SUNDAY
*  MAINLY DRY AND MILD EARLY NEXT WEEK

OVERVIEW...
PATTERN SHIFT EXPECTED DURING THE EXTENDED PERIOD AS POLAR VORTEX
RETREATS NORTHWARD WITH LACK OF ANY HIGH LATITUDE BLOCKING BRINGING
A PROGRESSIVE PATTERN AND CONSIDERABLY MILDER CONDITIONS.  MID LEVEL
RIDGE BUILDS OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC THIS WEEKEND WHICH WILL BRING
A PERIOD OF UNSEASONABLY MILD CONDITIONS. 00Z MODEL SUITE IS MORE
ROBUST WITH AN APPROACHING MID LEVEL TROF AND FRONTAL SYSTEM
SUGGESTING THE MILD WEATHER WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY A PERIOD OF HEAVY
RAIN AND STRONG WINDS ESPECIALLY SAT NIGHT.  ECMWF IS MORE AMPLIFIED
THAN GFS AND HOLDS ON TO THE RAIN THROUGH MUCH OF SUNDAY BUT WE
LEANED TOWARD CONSENSUS OF MORE PROGRESSIVE SOLUTION WITH GRADUALLY
IMPROVING CONDITIONS DURING SUNDAY. WEST COAST RIDGE AND MIDWEST
TROF SETS UP EARLY NEXT WITH SW FLOW ACROSS NEW ENG WHICH WILL
MAINTAIN MILD CONDITIONS.

THU NIGHT INTO FRIDAY...
STRONG HIGH PRES ACROSS NEW ENG MOVES OFFSHORE ON FRIDAY. MODELS ARE
FAIRLY AGGRESSIVE IN MOISTENING THE COLUMN LATE THU NIGHT INTO FRI
AS FAST MOVING SHORTWAVE MOVES JUST SOUTH OF NEW ENG.  SOME LIGHT
QPF IS GENERATED FRI MORNING WHICH MAY BRING SOME LIGHT SNOW OR
FLURRIES TO THE REGION. WE HAVE JUST SLIGHT CHC POPS FOR NOW.
AFTER A COLD NIGHT THU NIGHT...TEMPS MODERATE THROUGH THE 30S ON
FRI...WITH SOME LOWER 40S NEAR THE S COAST.

FRI NIGHT INTO SUNDAY...
MAINLY DRY FRI NIGHT AS AREA OF MOISTURE MOVES OFFSHORE BUT WILL
HAVE TO WATCH POTENTIAL FOR A PERIOD OF LIGHT FREEZING RAIN IN THE
INTERIOR TOWARD DAYBREAK SAT AND SAT MORNING AS WARM AIR ADVECTION
INCREASES AND DEEPENING MOISTURE RETURNS FROM THE WEST.  PRECIP
WOULD BE LIGHT BUT ANY FREEZING RAIN WOULD RESULT IN HAZARDOUS
TRAVEL.

SHOWERS INCREASE LATE SAT AND ESPECIALLY SAT NIGHT AS COLD FRONT
APPROACHES FROM THE WEST WITH DEEP MOISTURE PLUME LIFTING NORTH
INTO THE REGION AHEAD OF THE MID LEVEL TROF. THIS SYSTEM IS RATHER
ROBUST WITH GFS INDICATING A 100 KT SOUTHERLY LOW LEVEL JET MOVING
INTO THE REGION SAT NIGHT. ECMWF MORE CONSERVATIVE BUT STILL HAS
80- 85 KT LOW LEVEL JET. GEFS ENSEMBLES FORECASTING +3SD LOW LEVEL
JET AND PWAT ANOMALY WHICH IS PRETTY IMPRESSIVE AT THIS TIME RANGE
INDICATING POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAINFALL AND STRONG WINDS. IN
FACT...PROBS FOR GREATER THAN 1" HAVE INCREASED TO 60-70 PERCENT.
TEMPS WILL LIKELY RISE INTO THE 50S SAT NIGHT AND WOULD NOT BE
SURPRISED TO SEE SOME 60 DEGREE TEMPS IN THE COASTAL PLAIN WHICH
WOULD ENHANCE THE THREAT FOR STRONG WINDS.

SHOWERS WILL LINGER INTO SUNDAY MORNING AS FRONT MOVES THROUGH WITH
IMPROVING CONDITIONS POSSIBLE SUN AFTERNOON...BUT TIMING OF FROPA
AND IMPROVEMENT IS UNCERTAIN.

MONDAY INTO TUESDAY...
LOOKS MOSTLY DRY AND A BIT COOLER...BUT TEMPS REMAINING ABOVE
NORMAL.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...

MODERATE...30 TO 60 PERCENT.

ALLOWING WINDS AND SEAS TO CALM. BREEZY WEST WINDS AROUND 10 TO
15 KTS DURING THE DAY OVER THE EASTERN WATERS WITH LIGHTER FLOW TO
THE SOUTH...VEERING MORE SOUTHERLY OVERNIGHT INTO FRIDAY MORNING.
