AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
333 AM EDT THU MAY 15 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A WARM FRONT WILL LIFT ACROSS THE REGION EARLY TODAY...ALLOWING
FOR WARMER AND MORE HUMID CONDITIONS TO DEVELOP. WINDY AND WARM
FRIDAY AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT ALONG WITH ISOLATED
SHOWERS. LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL
MOVE ACROSS THE REGION FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY AHEAD OF A SLOW
MOVING COLD FRONT. SEASONABLY COOL UNSTABLE AIR WILL THEN MOVE
IN...GENERATING CLOUDS AND SCATTERED SHOWERS THROUGH MIDWEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
11-3.9 IR CHANNEL SHOWS A BROAD AREA OF STRATUS CONTINUES TO
BUILD INTO PORTIONS OF NRN NEW ENGLAND THIS MORNING...ALTHOUGH
THE BACK EDGE IS BEGINNING TO SHOW SIGNS OF LIFTING OUT AT ACK
WITH SLIGHT NE PUSH OF WARM FRONT. OTHERWISE...ONLY A FEW SPOTS OF
FOG/DZ ACROSS THE REGION THIS MORNING AS THE BULK OF THIS INITIAL
ROUND OF MOISTURE IS MAINLY TRAPPED IN THE H95-H8 LAYER AND NOT
IMMEDIATELY AT THE SFC.

THIS SFC WARM FRONT SHOULD FINALLY BEGIN TO MOVE N AS INITIAL COLD
FRONTAL WAVE WELL TO THE W WILL MOVE INTO CANADA ALONG WITH ITS
SHORTWAVE...ALLOWING WINDS ALOFT ACROSS NEW ENGLAND TO SHIFT TO
THE S. THIS COMBINED DIURNAL TEMP INCREASES AFTER SUNRISE SHOULD
BE ENOUGH TO FINALLY GET IT MOVING. THE FRONT IS LIKELY ONLY TO
FULLY MANIFEST ITSELF AS AN INCREASE IN LOW LVL DWPTS...ALLOWING
THEM TO SHIFT INTO THE LOW 60S FOR MUCH OF THE DAY.

IN SPITE OF THIS WARM FRONTAL PASSAGE...UPPER LVL RIDGE AND SFC
HIGH PRES RIDGE TO THE E REMAIN IN CONTROL SOMEWHAT...TRAPPING THE
MOIST LAYER /AND STRATUS/ BENEATH SUBSIDENCE INVERSION.
THEREFORE...DO NOT EXPECT TEMP INCREASES TO BE AS HIGH AS THEY
COULD WITH H85 TEMPS IN AVERAGING AROUND 12C BY 18Z.
THEREFORE...WILL CAP MOST TEMPS IN THE LOW-MID 70S AWAY FROM THE S
COAST...WHERE ONSHORE SLY FLOW WILL KEEP THINGS COOLER. SHOULD THE
STRATUS DISSIPATE FROM S TO N...OR EVEN A BIT IN THE E THANKS TO
STRONGER SUBSIDENCE...HIGHS MAY NEED TO BE RAISED SOMEWHAT FROM
CURRENT FORECAST.

THE KEY WITH ANY PRECIP WILL BE IN WHAT...IF ANY OF THE MODEST
INSTABILITY IS ABLE TO BE TAPPED. THE COMBINATION OF THE
INCREASING DWPTS AND WARMING SFC TEMPS MAY ALLOW FOR MODEST SB
CAPE VALUES GENERALLY 200J/KG OR LESS...BUT SHOULD THE STRATUS
HOLD LONGER IT WOULD LIKELY TO BE LESS. WITH THE WARM FRONT MOVING
INTO NRN NEW ENGLAND...MOST OF THE AVAILABLE FORCING IS WELL W
ALSO...SO WILL REALLY NEED TO WATCH THE AREAS IN NY/PA FOR ANY
CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT WHICH MAY SPILL INTO THE WRN REACHES OF SRN
NEW ENGLAND. HAVE CAPPED POPS AT CHANCE MAINLY FROM ABOUT THE CT
VALLEY INTO THE BORDER WITH ALY. GIVEN THE MODEST INSTABILITY
CONTINUE TO KEEP TS OUT OF THE WX...BUT AS MENTIONED
ABOVE...SHOULD MORE BREAKS OF SUN OCCUR...DESTABILIZATION MAY BE
UNDERESTIMATED.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...
TONIGHT...
ANY CONVECTION OR -SHRA ACTIVITY SHOULD DIMINISH WITH LOSS OF
DIURNAL HEATING GIVEN THE MODEST INSTABILITY AVAILABLE.
OTHERWISE...SIMILAR SETUP TO WED NIGHT AS SLY FLOW SHOULD ALLOW
FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF STRATUS TO DEVELOP AND BUILD N ESPECIALLY
ACROSS INTERIOR SRN NEW ENGLAND. A LOOK AT MODEL SOUNDINGS SUGGEST
A BIT MORE NEAR SFC MOISTURE HOWEVER...SUGGESTING THE POSSIBILITY
OF A LITTLE MORE LOCALIZED FOG DEVELOPMENT. DON/T CURRENTLY HAVE
ENOUGH CONFIDENCE IN ANY DENSE FOG GIVEN THE DAYTIME MIXING MAY
ACTUALLY KEEP OVERNIGHT DWPTS IN THE UPPER 50S...BUT THIS MAY NEED
TO BE WATCHED. WILL KEEP ANOTHER ROUND OF LOW CLOUDS...FOG AND DZ
THANKS TO THE TRAPPED MOISTURE. MINS ARE LIKELY TO REMAIN
MILD...ONLY FALLING BACK INTO THE UPPER 50S AND LOW 60S.

FRI...
A SECONDARY FRONTAL WAVE WILL BE SLIDING ALONG A SLOW MOVING
FRONTAL BOUNDARY TO THE W. THIS SHOULD ALLOW FOR ONE MORE SHOT OF
MESOSCALE RIDGING WITHIN THE WARM SECTOR ACROSS THE AREA FOR THE
EARLY HALF OF THE DAY ON FRI. THEREFORE...THE PRIMARY ISSUE WILL
BE DEALING WITH LEFTOVER FOG/STRATUS TO START THE DAY...WHICH WILL
LIKELY KEEP HIGHS A BIT LOWER THAN THEIR POTENTIAL ONCE
AGAIN...MAINLY IN THE UPPER 60S AND LOW 70S. BY AFTERNOON...MAY
START TO SEE ENOUGH SUNNY BREAKS TO YIELD MODEST INSTABILITY AHEAD
OF THE APPROACHING FRONT. SO WILL GRADUALLY INCREASE POPS FROM W
TO E AND INTRODUCE SOME TS /MAINLY ISOLATED FOR NOW/. MAIN ISSUE
WOULD BE SOME BRIEF HEAVY RAIN GIVEN HIGH PWATS OF 1.5+ INCHES
/NEARLY 3 STD DEV FROM NORMAL/. HOWEVER...THE MAIN BULK OF THE
PRECIP WILL LIKELY HOLD OFF UNTIL LATE EVENING HOURS.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
BIG PICTURE...
DEEP TROUGH CENTERED OVER THE GREAT LAKES WILL DOMINATE THE
EASTERN USA THIS WEEKEND. ANOTHER TROUGH MOVES ASHORE OVER THE
WESTERN USA AND NUDGES THE WEATHER SYSTEMS EAST A LITTLE. BUT AS
THE EASTERN TROUGH MOVES TO NEW ENGLAND IT WILL DRAW A CLOSED LOW
WEST FROM THE ATLANTIC OCEAN...WITH THE TWO SYSTEMS MERGING INTO A
CLOSED LOW OVER SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND THAT LINGERS OVERHEAD MONDAY
THROUGH WEDNESDAY. COLD AIR ALOFT /COLD POOL/ WILL MOVE IN WITH
THE UPPER LOW AND REMAIN OVERHEAD THROUGH MIDWEEK. THE APPROACH OF
THE TROUGH PROMISES A PERIOD OF SHOWERS FRIDAY-SATURDAY WITH MILD
TEMPS. THE SUBSEQUENT UPPER LOW OVERHEAD WILL MEAN INSTABILITY
CLOUDS/SHOWERS AND COOLER TEMPS EARLY NEXT WEEK.

THE DAILIES...

FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY...UPPER FLOW IS SOUTH TO NORTH AND SO IT
WILL OPPOSE ANY FAST MOVEMENT OF WEATHER FEATURES TOWARD THE EAST.
STRONGEST LOW LEVEL JET WINDS /40 TO 50 KNOTS/ MOVE OVER NEW ENGLAND
DURING THIS PERIOD WITH THE SURFACE COLD FRONT REACHING THE HUDSON
VALLEY AROUND MIDNIGHT AND SLOWLY CROSSING SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
DURING SATURDAY/SAT NIGHT. THE STRONG LOW LEVEL JET ADVECTS 1.5 INCH
PCPBL WATER VALUES...2 STD DEV ABOVE NORMAL...AND GENERATES
ISENTROPIC LIFT. THIS WILL BE JOINED WITH THE RIGHT-ENTRANCE REGION
OF THE UPPER JET DURING THIS PERIOD. STRONG LIFT AND ABUNDANT
MOISTURE POINT TO THIS AS BEING THE PERIOD OF HEAVIEST
RAINFALL...WITH OVERALL AMOUNTS OF 1.0 TO 1.5 INCHES COMMON AND
LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS AT OR ABOVE 2 INCHES LIKELY. HEAVIEST AMOUNTS
ARE FAVORED IN WESTERN NEW ENGLAND...THE PCPN IS LONGEST IN DURATION
THERE AND THAT AREA IS CLOSEST TO THE RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION/UPPER
VENTING. IN ADDITION...THERE WILL BE MARGINAL AND ELEVATED
INSTABILITY WITH TOTALS IN THE MID TO UPPER 40S. THIS WILL
CONTRIBUTE A POTENTIAL FOR SOME WIDELY SCATTERED THUNDER.

SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY... THE FRONT MOVES OFF...SLOWLY...BUT THE
DEVELOPING CLOSED UPPER LOW WILL MOVE OVER NEW ENGLAND AND TAKE UP
RESIDENCE FOR A FEW DAYS.  IT WILL DRAW IN COLDER AIR AT MID
LEVELS...ESPECIALLY MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. COLD ADVECTION
ALOFT WILL CREATE 850-500 MB LAPSE RATES EITHER SIDE OF 7C/KM AND
TOTALS OF 50-55 ESPECIALLY ON MONDAY-TUESDAY-WEDNESDAY. COLD POOL
CLOUDS WILL DOMINATE EACH DAY WITH SUFFICIENT INSTABILITY FOR
SCATTERED SHOWERS/TSTMS.

.AVIATION /07Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

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

SHORT TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...

THROUGH TODAY...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TRENDS BUT LOWER CONFIDENCE IN
TIMING.
MAINLY MVFR IN LOW CIGS /ALTHOUGH LOCALIZED IFR POSSIBLE NEAR S
COAST/ WELL INTO THE MID 14-16Z FOR MANY SITES ALTHOUGH A SLIGHT
IMPROVEMENT TO VFR IN SRN NH AND SE MA EARLIER. THEN...EXCEPT FOR
MAYBE CT AND SRN RI TERMINALS /WHERE LOW CIGS HOLD IN/...A BRIEF
AFTERNOON IMPROVEMENT TO VFR IS POSSIBLE...BEFORE THINGS DIMINISH
AGAIN BY EVENING. LOW PROBABILITY OF AN AFTERNOON/EVENING -SHRA
IN THE WEST. A FEW S WIND GUSTS TO 20 KT DURING THE
DAY...ESPECIALLY IF THE SUN BREAKS OUT.

TONIGHT INTO FRI...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.
ANY AREAS NOT ALREADY MVFR ARE EXPECTED TO ONCE AGAIN DETERIORATE
TO MVFR IN LOW CIGS AND MORE WIDESPREAD FOG. SOME IFR ALSO
POSSIBLE. DURING THE DAY FRI...SOME IMPROVEMENT TO VFR POSSIBLE
ESPECIALLY ERN MA AND RI...BUT LOW CLOUDS AND FOG MAY LINGER IN
THE INTERIOR. OTHERWISE...TOWARD EVENING EXPECT A RETURN TO
MVFR/IFR EVERYWHERE IN LOW CIGS...RAIN AND FOG...ESPECIALLY BY FRI
NIGHT. SOME SOUTHERLY WIND GUSTS UP TO 25 KT POSSIBLE.

KBOS TERMINAL...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN OVERALL TRENDS...LOWER
CONFIDENCE IN TIMING OF MID MORNING IMPROVEMENT. CIGS MAY BOUNCE
BETWEEN MVFR/LOW VFR DURING THE EARLY MORNING.

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

OUTLOOK...FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...WIDESPREAD IFR IN SHOWERS AND FOG.
SCATTERED TSTMS AND LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS. HEAVIEST PCPN IN THE CT
VALLEY WILL BE ROUGHLY MIDNIGHT TO DAWN/IN THE CENTRAL HILLS 3 AM TO
MID MORNING/COASTAL PLAIN DAWN TO MIDDAY. STRONG SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST
WINDS AT 2000 FEET AGL WITH SPEEDS 40 TO 50 KNOTS. THIS WILL MEAN
LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR.

SUNDAY-MONDAY... VFR WITH MVFR CIGS/VSBYS IN SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
ISOLATED TSTMS.

SHORT TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...HIGH CONFIDENCE.

THROUGH TODAY...
MAINLY QUIET BOATING WEATHER TODAY AS HIGH PRES CONTINUES SLOW
MOVEMENT OFFSHORE. ANY REMAINING SE WINDS SHOULD SHIFT TO THE S
THIS MORNING. ONLY SOME EARLY MORNING FOG TO DEAL WITH.

TONIGHT INTO FRI...
WITH PERSISTENT SOUTHERLY WINDS...EXPECT A S SWELL TO DEVELOP
ACROSS THE SRN WATERS TONIGHT...BUILDING INTO FRI. SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORIES HAVE BEEN ISSUED FOR TONIGHT ACROSS THE S...AND ARE
LIKELY TO BE EXPANDED INTO THE E FOR FRI. WINDS MAY COME CLOSE TO
BREAK 25 KT NEAR SHORE DURING THE DAY ON FRI...BUT THE STRONGEST
WINDS ARE LIKELY TO HOLD OFF ACROSS THE WATERS UNTIL FRI NIGHT.
WILL NEED TO WATCH FOR MORE FOG AND LOW VSBYS OVERNIGHT TONIGHT.

OUTLOOK...FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE

FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY...COLD FRONT APPROACHES FROM NEW YORK WITH
STRONG WINDS ABOVE THE OCEAN SURFACE...ENOUGH TO SUPPORT 25-30 KNOT
WINDS AT THE SURFACE. SEAS CONTINUE TO BUILD WITH HEIGHTS 5 FEET OR
HIGHER ON ALL EXPOSED WATERS. REDUCED VSBYS IN SCATTERED TSTMS AND
HEAVY DOWNPOURS. WINDS AND SEAS WILL DIMINISH SATURDAY EVENING AND
NIGHT. SMALL CRAFT HEADLINES WILL CONTINUE ON MOST WATERS. THERE IS
A LOW CHANCE OF SOUTH GALES.

SUNDAY-MONDAY.. WINDS AND SEAS CONTINUE TO DIMINISH BOTH DAYS. WINDS
WILL BE EAST TO NORTHEAST ON THE WATERS EAST OF MASS...AND NORTHWEST
ON THE WATERS SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND. SPEEDS WILL BE AT OR BELOW 15
KNOTS.  SEAS ON THE OUTER WATERS WILL BE 5-6 FEET.
