AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
1021 AM EDT THU AUG 28 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT MOVES OFFSHORE THIS MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN
WITH DRIER WEATHER AND LESS HUMIDITY FOR TODAY AND FRIDAY.
HURRICANE CRISTOBAL WILL PASS WELL OFFSHORE TODAY BRINGING
DANGEROUS SURF AND RIP CURRENTS TO SOUTH FACING OCEAN BEACHES OF
RI AND MA. PLEASANT LATE SUMMER WEATHER WILL CONTINUE ON
SATURDAY. A FRONT WILL SLOWLY MOVE ACROSS NEW ENGLAND LATE SUNDAY
AND MONDAY BRINGING SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.

&&

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

1030 AM UPDATE...

FORECAST REMAINS ON TRACK FOR THIS MORNING. HAVE INCREASED TEMPS
SLIGHTLY AS THEY ARE WARMING QUICKER THEN PREV FORECASTED.
REGARDLESS DEWPOINTS HAVE BEEN FALLING ALL MORNING ALLOWING FOR
COMFORTABLE AIR. WINDS HAVE STARTED TO PICK UP ACROSS THE INTERIOR
AND HAVE INCREASED THEM ACCORDINGLY. THIS IS SUPPORTED BY BUFKIT
SOUNDINGS WHICH SHOW MIXING UP TO 850 MB. ANTICIPATE DIURNAL CU TO
DEVELOP TODAY AS THERE IS STILL SOME MOISTURE LINGERING AROUND
THE 850 MB LEVEL.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
DRIER AIR AT THE SURFACE BUT A LAYER OF 80 PCT RH LINGERS BETWEEN
800 AND 850 MB. UPPER TROUGH AND COLD POOL MOVE ACROSS NEW
ENGLAND...ALTHOUGH MOST OF THIS IS FOCUSED ON NORTHERN NEW
ENGLAND. DAYTIME HEATING IN THE MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES SHOULD REACH
850 MB OR A LITTLE HIGHER...TAPPING THIS MOISTURE AND FORMING
DIURNAL CLOUDS LATE MORNING AND AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY ALONG AND
NORTH OF THE MASS PIKE. THE MIXING WILL ALSO TAP A DEEP LAYER OF
20 KNOT NORTHWEST WINDS CREATING GUSTS TO THAT SPEED DURING THE
MIDDAY AND AFTERNOON.

TEMPS AT THE TOP OF THE MIXED LAYER WILL BE EQUIV TO 10C-12C...
SUPPORTING MAX SFC TEMPS IN THE MID 70S TO LOWER 80S. WITH
DEWPOINTS FALLING INTO THE 50S...THIS WILL MEAN A PLEASANT BREEZY
DAY.

HURRICANE CRISTOBAL WILL PASS ABOUT 375 MILES SOUTHEAST OF
NANTUCKET TODAY. TROPICAL STORM FORCE WINDS ONLY EXTEND ABOUT 205
MILES OUT FROM THE STORM. SWELLS ALREADY TRANSMITTED NORTH
THROUGH THE OCEAN...NOTING A 13-15 SECOND PERIOD OBSERVED ON BOTH
THE SOUTHERN AND EASTERN WATERS...AND A 7 FOOT HEIGHT HAS BEEN
OBSERVED AT THE BUOY SOUTHEAST OF BLOCK ISLAND. WAVE MODEL DATA
SHOWS A 7-8 FOOT SWELL LINGERING ON OUR SOUTHERN EXPOSED WATERS
THROUGH THE DAY AND THEN DIMINISHING TONIGHT. CALCULATIONS SUGGEST
BREAKERS OF 6-12 FEET ON SOUTH- FACING OCEAN BEACHES. WE WILL
CONTINUE THE HIGH SURF ADVISORY AND EXTEND IT THROUGH EARLY
FRIDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...
TONIGHT...HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE REGION AND SHOULD BRING
DIMINISHING WIND WITH DECOUPLING IN THE INTERIOR. DEWPOINTS WILL
FALL TO 45-55 MOST AREAS. THIS WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES INLAND TO
FALL TO THE UPPER 40S AND 50S. OCEAN INFLUENCE WILL KEEP COASTAL
AREAS AROUND 60 OR LOW 60S.

FRIDAY...
HIGH PRESSURE SURFACE AND ALOFT BUILDS OVERHEAD. THIS WILL MEAN
FAIR SKIES AND LIGHT WINDS...AS WELL AS SEABREEZES ALONG THE
COASTS. TEMPS ALOFT 8-10C SHOULD SUPPORT MAX TEMPS IN THE 70S.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
OVERVIEW AND MODEL PREFERENCES...
MEDIUM RANGE MODELS AND ENSEMBLES CONTINUE TO SIGNAL SURFACE AND
UPPER LEVEL RIDGING EARLY IN THIS PERIOD...THEN TREND TOWARD A
FLATTENING OF THE UPPER PATTERN ACROSS THE NORTHERN TIER STATES
MAINLY LATE THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. NOTING TIMING
ISSUES WITH SURFACE FEATURES BEYOND MONDAY WITH THE FASTER FLOW
ALOFT. ENSEMBLES IN THE LATER PERIODS APPEAR TO BE HANDLING THESE
FEATURES THOUGH LOWER CONFIDENCE FOR THE MONDAY-WEDNESDAY
TIMEFRAME DUE TO THE TIMING ISSUES.

USED A BLEND OF AVAILABLE GUIDANCE THROUGH MONDAY...WHICH SHOWED
GOOD CONSISTENCY TO PREVIOUS FORECASTS...THEN LEANED TOWARD THE
EC/GFS ENSEMBLES BEYOND MONDAY.

DETAILS...

FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT...
SURFACE AND UPPER LEVEL RIDGING TAKES OVER DURING THIS TIMEFRAME...
WITH THE BEST CONDITIONS EXPECTED SATURDAY WITH DRY AND
SEASONABLE CONDITIONS. EXPECT E-W ORIENTED HIGH PRES RIDGE ACROSS
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND AS WINDS BECOME MORE SOUTHERLY LATER SAT AND
SAT NIGHT. THIS RIDGE WILL HOLD OFF THE APPROACH OF THE NEXT
FRONTAL SYSTEM...KEEPING DRY CONDITIONS THROUGH SAT NIGHT. HIGHS
ON SAT WILL BE CLOSE TO SEASONABLE NORMALS /IN THE 70S/.

WILL SEE PATCHY FOG DEVELOP LATE BOTH NIGHTS...FIRST WITH
LIGHT/VRBL WINDS FRI NIGHT THEN BECOMING S BY SAT NIGHT WHICH WILL
BRING IN SOME MORE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE. UPPER LEVEL RIDGE STARTS TO
BREAK DOWN DURING SAT NIGHT...SO WILL NOT ONLY SEE HUMIDITY
INCREASE BUT TEMPS BE SEVERAL DEGS MILDER SAT NIGHT AS COMPARED TO
FRI NIGHT. FRI NIGHT LOWS WILL BE MAINLY IN THE 50S...THEN IN THE
LOWER-MID 60S SAT NIGHT.

SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT...
A ILL DEFINED WARM FRONT WILL CROSS THE REGION EARLY
SUNDAY...BRINGING WARM AND MORE HUMID CONDITIONS AS S-SW WINDS
TAKE OVER. THIS WILL ALSO USHER IN A ROUND OF SCT
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS ESPECIALLY SUN AFTERNOON/EVENING WITH BETTER
INSTABILITY. WITH A FLATTER...NEARLY ZONAL UPPER LEVEL
FLOW SUNDAY NIGHT...NOTING ANOTHER FRONT TRYING TO SINK S OUT OF
SOUTHERN QUEBEC/ONTARIO. APPEARS THIS FRONT WILL STALL ACROSS
NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND...UNTIL AN H5 SHORT WAVE MOVES OUT OF THE
GREAT LAKES ALONG THIS FRONT. THIS WILL BE FOCUS OF SHOWER/TSTM
ACTIVITY ESPECIALLY SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY...WITH BEST SHOT FOR
CONVECTION EARLY SUN EVENING THEN AGAIN FROM MIDDAY MONDAY ONWARD
WITH HELP FROM DIURNAL HEATING.

EXPECT HIGHS BOTH SUNDAY AND MONDAY IN THE 80S WITH LOWS BOTH
NIGHTS IN THE 65 TO 70 DEGREE RANGE.

TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...
WITH FAST MOVING UPPER LEVEL PATTERN IN PLACE...WILL SEE
CHANGEABLE CONDITIONS DURING THIS TIMEFRAME. AT THIS POINT...HAVE
CONTINUED LOW CHANCE POPS LATE TUE INTO WED AS ANOTHER FRONT
SWEEPS ACROSS THE NORTHEAST. HOWEVER...LOWER CONFIDENCE DUE TO
TIMING OF SURFACE FEATURES.

1030 AM UPDATE...
HAVE ADJUSTED WAVE HEIGHTS ACCORDINGLY TO WHAT IS OCCURRING THIS
MORNING. SOUTH OF BLOCK ISLAND...THE BUOY HAS REMAINED ABOUT 5 FT
WITH A PERIOD OF 13 SEC. APPEARS BOTH THE PERIOD AND SWELL WILL
MAX OUT BY THIS AFTERNOON.

TODAY AND TONIGHT...
SOUTH SWELL FROM HURRICANE CRISTOBAL WILL CONTINUE TO
BUILD...REACHING A PEAK OF 6 TO 9 FEET ON THE SOUTHERN EXPOSED
WATERS. THE HURRICANE ITSELF WILL PASS 375 MILES SOUTHEAST OF

MEAN LIGHT WIND...BECOMING ONSHORE NEAR THE COAST. SEAS WILL

S-SW WINDS GUSTING UP TO 20 KT ON SUNDAY...THEN DROP OFF A BIT
MONDAY. SEAS INCREASE AGAIN UP TO AROUND 5 FT ON THE SOUTHERN
