AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
1049 AM EDT TUE OCT 27 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL CROSS NEW ENGLAND TODAY...THEN PUSH E
OVERNIGHT. LOW PRESSURE MOVES THROUGH QUEBEC WEDNESDAY BRINGING A
COLD FRONT THROUGH S NEW ENGLAND. A WIDESPREAD APPRECIABLE
RAINFALL WITH ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS IS EXPECTED ALONG WITH WARMER
TEMPERATURES AND GUSTY WINDS. THERE IS ALSO THE THREAT OF COASTAL
FLOODING WITH ASTRONOMICAL HIGH TIDES. STEADY RAIN ENDS EARLY
THURSDAY MORNING BUT GUSTY WINDS AND FEW SPOT SHOWERS WILL REMAIN
POSSIBLE THROUGH THURSDAY AFTERNOON...DESPITE UNSEASONABLY MILD
TEMPERATURES. DRY AND MUCH COOLER WEATHER RETURNS FRIDAY AND
SATURDAY BEFORE MILDER TEMPERATURES ALONG WITH THE RISK FOR A FEW
SHOWERS ARRIVES EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...

1025 AM UPDATE...

VEIL OF HIGH THIN CLOUDS WORKING ACROSS THE REGION FROM THE W
THIS MORNING AS SEEN ON LATEST VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY...THOUGH
QUITE A BIT OF SUNSHINE STILL WORKING THROUGH. TEMPS REBOUNDED
NICELY AFTER OVERNIGHT LOWS IN THE 20S TO LOWER 30S. READINGS AT
14Z WERE IN THE UPPER 30S TO MID 40S INLAND...RANGING TO THE
LOWER-MID 50S ALONG THE IMMEDIATE S COAST.

HIGH PRES CENTERED ACROSS NEW ENGLAND WILL SLIP SLOWLY E THIS
AFTERNOON. LIGHT N-NE WINDS WILL SHIFT TO S-SW AS THE RIDGE AXIS
MOVES OUT OF THE REGION. WILL CONTINUE TO SEE MID AND HIGH CLOUDS
INCREASE AND THICKEN DURING THE AFTERNOON...THOUGH IT WILL REMAIN
DRY.

FORECAST PRETTY MUCH ON TRACK...THOUGH DID UPDATE NEAR TERM TO
BRING CONDITIONS CURRENT.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
EXPECT FILTERED SUNSHINE BENEATH A H85 +2C AIRMASS DURING THE
DAY. WILL LEAN WITH MILD CONDITIONS AROUND THE MID TO UPPER 50S.
WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE A FEW LOCALES COME IN AT OR ABOVE
60 DEGREES. WEAK GRADIENT MAY PROMOTE SEA BREEZES ALONG THE
IMMEDIATE COAST THIS AFTERNOON...HOLDING HIGHS IN THESE LOCATIONS
IN THE LOWER 50S.

WHILE OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES DROP TOWARDS MIDNIGHT...BUT LIKELY TO
SEE A NON-DIURNAL TREND IN TEMPERATURES THEREAFTER WITH THE ONSHORE
FLOW. LOWS AROUND THE MID TO UPPER 30S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
N-STREAM DISTURBANCE CAPTURES BOTH SURFACE LOW PRESSURE TO THE LEE
OF THE ROCKIES ASSOCIATED WITH MARITIME PACIFIC-ORIGIN ENERGY...AND
THE LATENT-HEAT REMNANTS OF HURRICANE PATRICIA. RAPID DEEPENING AND
LOW OCCLUSION WITH SURFACE PRESSURES DOWN TO AROUND 980 MB FOLLOW
BENEATH A POSITIVELY-TILTED TROUGH. IT IS AHEAD OF THIS MATURE- TO
DYING-PHASE OF LOW PRESSURE THAT THE ISALLOBARIC / GRADIENT RESPONSE
RESULTS IN STRONG S-FLOW AND ADVECTION OF ANOMALOUSLY HIGH MOISTURE
CONTENT NORTHWARD. CONVERGING AND UNDERGOING ASCENT BENEATH STRONG
DYNAMICS AND THE RIGHT-REAR-QUADRANT OF THE UPPER-LEVEL-JET ACROSS
THE NE CONUS AND THERE ARE SEVERAL THREATS TO CONSIDER IN PRIORITY:

 - POTENTIAL THREATS AND TIMING

1. STRONG TO DAMAGING WINDS... 2. MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN POTENTIALLY
LEADING TO URBAN / POOR-DRAINAGE FLOODING... AND 3. COASTAL FLOODING.

TIMEFRAME OF FOCUS FOR THESE POSSIBLE THREATS IS FROM LATE WEDNESDAY
ROUGHLY AROUND THE AFTERNOON COMMUTE...INTO THURSDAY MORNING. WILL
GO INTO FURTHER DETAIL ON THE THREATS BELOW.

 - STRONG TO DAMAGING WINDS

ISALLOBARIC/GRADIENT RESPONSE TO DEEPENING LOW PRESSURE WILL INVOKE
A STRONG LOW-LEVEL FLOW MODEL-AVERAGED AROUND 55 MPH JUST A COUPLE
THOUSAND FEET ALOFT. THIS WILL ALSO ADVECT N WARM 2M TEMPERATURES
ALONG WITH A CONDITIONALLY-UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH MODEL-AVERAGE
MUCAPES AROUND 250-500 J/KG AND NEGATIVE SHOWALTERS.

NOTING BUFKIT PROFILES ILLUSTRATING A WEAK INVERSION...WARMER 2M
TEMPERATURES N WOULD YIELD A GREATER LIKELIHOOD FOR MIX-DOWN OF
FASTER MOMENTUM TAKING PLACE ESPECIALLY AROUND MIDNIGHT THURSDAY
INTO THURSDAY MORNING AS WINDS VEER FROM SE TO S YIELDING A NON-
DIURNAL TEMPERATURE TREND...IN COMBINATION WITH CONVECTIVE
PARAMETERS AND PRESSURE FALLS ON THE ORDER OF 6 MB / 3 HOURS. CIPS
ANALOGS AND EC-ENSEMBLES SIGNAL STRONG S-FLOW POTENTIAL REACHING
WIND-ADVISORY CRITERIA...AS DO IN-HOUSE WIND-CLIMATOLOGY STUDIES.

SOME FULLY-LEAFED TREES REMAINING SUCH AS OAKS...WOULD EXPECT SOME
DOWNED TREE AND/OR TREE-LIMBS FOCUSING ON AREAS S/E OF THE WORCESTER
HILLS. A WIND-ADVISORY MAY BE SUBSEQUENTLY PRUDENT FOR THE WEDNESDAY
EVENING INTO THURSDAY MORNING TIMEFRAME. CONSERVATIVELY...EXPECTING
35 TO 45 MPH SOUTHERLY GUSTS...BUT CAN NOT RULE OUT LOCALLY STRONGER
POTENTIALS. HAVE HIGHEST CONFIDENCE OF IMPACTS FOR S/SE-COASTLINE OF
NEW ENGLAND. WILL ALLOW LATER SHIFTS TO EVALUATE AND MAKE THE CALL.

 - MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL / URBAN POOR-DRAINAGE FLOODING

S-FLOW ADVECTING N PWATS UP TO 1.8-INCHES PARENT WITH HIGH THETA-E
AIR AND +60 SURFACE DEWPOINTS. SUCH PWATS WITHIN MAX IF NOT ABOVE
OBSERVED PWAT CLIMATOLOGY. A CONDITIONALLY UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT
DEVELOPS AS NOTED EARLIER WITH THE STRONG LOW-LEVEL FLOW. CONFIDENCE
WANES AS TO WHETHER THE LOW-LEVEL FLOW IS CONVERGENT ACROSS THE AREA
AND AS TO WHETHER S NEW ENGLAND IS THE IDEAL LOCATION OF DEEP-LAYER
ASCENT BENEATH THE RIGHT-REAR-QUADRANT OF THE UPPER-LEVEL-JET. SOME
SUGGESTION BETTER OUTCOMES COULD BE FURTHER N.

NEVERTHELESS...ENSEMBLE-MEANS / CIPS ANALOGS WEIGH TOWARDS MODERATE
TO HEAVY RAINFALL OUTCOMES WITH AROUND 1-INCH STORM-TOTAL AMOUNTS
WITHIN A 12-HOUR PERIOD LATE WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY MORNING. LIKELY
THERE WILL BE LOCALLY HEAVIER AMOUNTS UPWARDS OF 2-INCHES WHEREVER
LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE CAN FOCUS PER CONVERGENCE AND IF SUCH CONVERGENCE
FALLS WITHIN A CONVECTIVELY-FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT. EFFECTIVE WARM-
RAIN PROCESSES CONSIDERING 12-13 KFT FREEZING LEVEL HEIGHTS BELOW
WHICH MOST OF THE MOISTURE IS CONTAINED.

NOT THINKING A FLOOD WATCH. ALSO FORECAST STORM-TOTAL RAINFALL WELL
BELOW FLASH-FLOOD GUIDANCE. CONSIDERING POSSIBLE LEAF-CLOGGED DRAINS
ALONG WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS...CONFIDENCE IS TOWARDS URBAN AND/OR
POOR-DRAINAGE FLOODING THAT CAN BE HANDLED BY SHORT-FUSED FORECAST
PRODUCTS. ISSUES POSSIBLY EARLY FOR THE HARTFORD-SPRINGFIELD METRO-
AREAS LATE WEDNESDAY IMPACTING THE AFTERNOON COMMUTES. OTHERWISE...
BULK OF IMPACTS OVERNIGHT WHICH LOOK TO RESULT IN MINIMAL IMPACT.

 - COASTAL FLOODING

PLEASE CONSULT THE CORRESPONDING SECTION IN THE DISCUSSION BELOW.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
HIGHLIGHTS...

* WINDY AND UNSEASONABLY MILD THURSDAY WITH A FEW SPOT SHOWERS
* DRY BUT MUCH COOLER FRI AND SAT
* MILDER TEMPS ALONG WITH A RISK FOR A FEW SHOWERS EARLY NEXT WEEK

DETAILS...

THURSDAY...

SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WINDS GUSTS OF 35 TO 50 MPH STILL POSSIBLE ON
COASTAL PLAIN THROUGH 9 AM OR SO WITH STRONG LOW LEVEL JET STILL IN
PLACE. ITS POSSIBLE STRONGEST WINDS END UP OCCURRING NEAR THE EARLY
MORNING RUSH HOUR...AS SURFACE WINDS VEER ALLOWING MORNING TEMPS
POSSIBLE TO APPROACH 70 ACROSS INTERIOR SOUTHEAST NEW ENGLAND.
SOMETIMES INTERIOR RHODE ISLAND AND SOUTHEAST MA END UP WITH THE
STRONGEST WINDS IN THESE SITUATIONS AS THEY WIND UP WARMER AWAY FROM
THE MARINE INFLUENCE ETC. EITHER WAY...GIVEN LOTS OF LEAVES STILL
ON THE TREES...A WIND ADVISORY WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED FOR MUCH OF
THE COASTAL PLAIN THROUGH EARLY TO MID MORNING GIVEN WITH THE RISK
FOR SOME DOWNED TREE LIMBS/ISOLATED POWER OUTAGES. THESE WINDS
SHOULD DIMINISH LATER IN THE MORNING AS COLD FRONT CLEARS THE
REGION AND LOW LEVEL JET EXITS THE COAST.

AS FOR PRECIPITATION...LEFT OVER SHOWERS POSSIBLE THROUGH MID THU
MORNING MAINLY ALONG THE SOUTHEAST COAST. OTHERWISE...DRY WEATHER
SHOULD DOMINATE THROUGH MID AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...POTENT SHORTWAVE
MOVING INTO WESTERN NEW ENGLAND SHOULD ALLOW SCATTERED SHOWERS TO
RE- DEVELOP DURING THE MID TO LATE AFTERNOON ACROSS THE INTERIOR
PERHAPS EVEN SURVIVING TO THE COASTAL PLAIN BY EARLY EVENING.

HIGHS SHOULD PROBABLY TOP OUT IN THE 70 TO 75 DEGREE RANGE FOR MANY
LOCATIONS GIVEN UNUSUALLY MILD START. AS MENTIONED IN THE PREVIOUS
PARAGRAPH...WINDS SHOULD DIMINISH SOME LATER IN THE MORNING ALONG
THE COASTAL PLAIN. HOWEVER...MAY SEE WESTERLY 30 TO 40 MPH WIND
GUSTS RE-DEVELOP ESPECIALLY ACROSS INTERIOR SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
BY LATE AFTERNOON AS COLDER AIR ALOFT MOVES IN STEEPENING LAPSE
RATES.

THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...

A SECONDARY COLD FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE REGION FRI...FOLLOWED BY
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN FROM THE MIDWEST FRI NIGHT AND SAT.  THE
RESULT WILL BE BE MUCH COOLER WEATHER. HIGH TEMPERATURES ON BOTH FRI
AND SAT WILL MAINLY BE IN THE 50S. FRI NIGHT/SAT AM WILL BE THE
COLDEST TEMPS OF THE NEXT WEEK AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN ALLOWING
FOR A GOOD NIGHT OF RADIATIONAL COOLING. LOW TEMPS SHOULD BOTTOM
OUT IN THE 20S TO THE LOWER 30S ACROSS MOST LOCATIONS.

AS FOR FRI AND SAT AFTERNOONS...IT WILL FEEL CHILLIER ON FRIDAY WITH
GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS AND A FAIR AMOUNT OF STRATO-CUMULUS CLOUDS.
MAINLY DRY WEATHER OVER THIS TIME...BUT A FEW SPOT SHOWERS POSSIBLE
FRIDAY GENERALLY ACROSS THE EAST SLOPES OF THE BERKSHIRES UNDERNEATH
THE STRATO-CUMULUS CLOUD DECK. LIGHTER WINDS AND MORE SUNSHINE WILL
LIKELY RESULT IN A MORE COMFORTABLE SAT AFTERNOON.

SUNDAY AND MONDAY...

BUILDING UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST
WILL ALLOW FOR A RETURN OF MILDER TEMPERATURES EARLY NEXT WEEK.
TIMING A BIT UNCERTAIN AS TO HOW QUICKLY THIS HAPPENS...BUT MON
LIKELY TO BE THE MILDER DAY. THE 00Z GFS OPERATIONAL RUN APPEARS TO
BE AN OUTLIER SHOWING A HEAVIER PRECIPITATION EVENT WITH A WAVE OF
LOW PRESSURE. AT THIS TIME...FOLLOWING A TAMER SOLUTION WITH SOME
WARM ADVECTION SHOWERS POSSIBLE SUN INTO MON WHICH IS WHAT MOST
OTHER MODELS SHOW...BUT FAR FROM A WASHOUT. AGAIN THOUGH ALL
OPTIONS OPEN AT THIS FAR A TIME RANGE.

EXPECTED. ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WITH IMPACTS TO VISIBILITY. GALE
WATCHES IN PLACE ACCORDINGLY.

OUTLOOK...THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...

THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE.

LEFT OVER SW GALE FORCE WIND GUSTS SHOULD EXIT THE E WATERS BY
LATE THU MORNING. OTHERWISE...COLD ADVECTION PATTERN SHOULD
SUPPORT WEST TO NORTHWEST WIND GUSTS OF 20 TO 30 KNOTS LATER THU
INTO FRI. SEAS OF 7 TO 12 FEET ACROSS THE OUTER-WATERS EARLY THU
AM SHOULD GRADUALLY DIMINISH THROUGH FRI AS FETCH DECREASES WITH
WINDS BECOMING WEST AND THEN EVENTUALLY WEST NORTHWEST.

SATURDAY...HIGH CONFIDENCE.
