AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
216 PM EDT TUE JUN 9 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
SPOTTY SHOWERS WILL AFFECT THE REGION THIS MORNING. A FEW STRONG
TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING TO THE NORTH AND WEST OF THE BOSTON TO PROVIDENCE
CORRIDOR. A COLD FRONT WILL PUSH OFFSHORE TONIGHT. DRY AND WARM
WEATHER FOLLOWS WEDNESDAY...BUT ANOTHER COLD FRONT MAY BRING A
FEW AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING...MAINLY ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE MASSACHUSETTS TURNPIKE.
DRY AND WARM ON FRIDAY LOOKS TO BE SHORT LIVED AS ANOTHER SYSTEM
MAY BRING A PERIOD OF SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS BY
SATURDAY.

&&

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

200 PM UPDATE...

SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE ALREADY STARTING TO DEVELOP ACROSS
WESTERN MA WITH A LINE OF STORMS OUT ALONG THE MOHAWK VALLEY.
WATCHING TO SEE HOW THESE STORMS DEVELOP AND EVOLVE IN WHICH WILL
IMPACT SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND. BIGGEST LIMITATION FOR THE REGION IS
THE LACK OF INSTABILITY. CLOUDS HAVE STARTED TO BREAK ACROSS THE
WESTERN PORTION OF THE AREA BUT IT MAY BE LITTLE TO LATE FOR US TO
GET THE NEEDED INSTABILITY TO SUSTAIN STRONG/SEVERE STORMS.

HOWEVER BOTH MU AND SURFACE CAPES HAVE INCREASED TO 1000 J/KG BUT
STILL LACKING ON THE LAPSE RATES. EVEN THOUGH THE INSTABILITY IS
LACKING...THE SHEAR MAY OVERCOME THE LACK OF INSTABILITY.
REGARDLESS...ANTICIPATE SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS COVERAGE WILL
INCREASE OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. MAY SEE A FEW STRONG TO PERHAPS
A SEVERE STORM OVER THE NEXT 3 OR 4 HOURS.

OTHERWISE...OUT EAST CONDITIONS CONTINUE TO BE SOCKED IN AS
SOUTHERN FLOW HAS KEPT THE MARINE STRATUS AND FOG OVER THE CAPE
AND THE ISLANDS.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...

VIGOROUS SHORTWAVE PUSHING ACROSS PA WILL ADVANCE THE COLD FRONT
TOWARDS NEW ENGLAND LATER TODAY. COLD FRONT IS CURRENTLY ACROSS
SYRACUSE DOWN TO HAGERSTOWN MARYLAND WITH SOME CONVECTION ALREADY
FIRING ALONG A LINE IN UPSTATE NY.

SCT SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE ACROSS THE REGION THIS MORNING
PER WEAK SURFACE TROUGH. THESE SHOWERS WILL KEEP THE CLOUD COVER
OVER MUCH OF THE REGION.

GUIDANCE AS WELL AS SPC AGREES THAT WE MAY SEE A FEW STRONG TO
SEVERE STORMS LATER THIS AFTERNOON. MAIN CONCERN IS LATER THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING IS THE POTENTIAL FOR A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS...MAINLY NORTHWEST OF A BOSTON TO PROVIDENCE LINE
WITH THE HIGHEST RISK IN WESTERN MA/NORTHERN CT. 0 TO 6 KM SHEAR
OF 35 TO 45 KNOTS IS QUITE IMPRESSIVE ALONG WITH A FAIRLY POTENT
SHORTWAVE/HEIGHT FALLS. BELIEVE THE SOUTH COST/CAPE AND THE
ISLANDS WILL MISS OUT AS THE STABLE MARINE AIR WILL DOMINATE THE
ATMOSPHERE TODAY.

THE BIGGEST UNCERTAINTY IT THE INSTABILITY POTENTIAL. THE
CONTINUOUS CLOUD COVER HAS KEPT MOST OF THE REGION STABLE THIS
MORNING. WAITING TO SEE IF WE WILL GET A BREAK IN THE CLOUD COVER
TO DESTABILIZE AND ALLOW THE SURFACE TO HEAT UP. PER LATEST VSBY
SATELLITE...THE CLOUD BREAKS ARE ACROSS UPSTATE NY...NEAR ALB AT
THE MOMENT AND COULD MOVE INTO WESTERN MA/CT LATE THIS MORNING.
WILL NEED TO WATCH THIS POTENTIAL CLOSELY AS IT WILL DETERMINE
WHETHER WE SEE MAINLY GARDEN VARIETY SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS OR SOME
SEVERE WEATHER ACROSS OUR WESTERN ZONES.

HAVE ADJUSTED THE FORECAST FOR TIMING PER LATEST HI-RES GUIDANCE
BUT OVERALL THE ONGOING FORECAST REMAINS ON TRACK.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM WEDNESDAY/...
TONIGHT...

BEST DYNAMICS LOOKS TO LIFT QUICKLY NE THIS EVENING AS COLD FRONT
MOVES ACROSS THE REGION. H5 S/W ALSO LIFTS NE...BUT SOME SHOWERS
MIGHT LINGER ACROSS FAR N MA THROUGH MIDNIGHT BEFORE ENDING.
DEWPTS DO NOT DROP MUCH OVERNIGHT...SO MAY SEE SOME PATCHY FOG
DEVELOP AFTER MIDNIGHT AS WINDS DIMINISH. TEMPS WILL FALL BACK TO
THE UPPER 50S TO LOWER 60S.

WEDNESDAY...

WEAK HIGH PRES BUILDS ACROSS THE REGION. HOWEVER...FAST UPPER
LEVEL WIND FLOW IN PLACE ACROSS THE NORTHERN TIER...SO EXPECT NEXT
COLD FRONT TO APPROACH DURING WED AFTERNOON. IT WILL BE A MILD DAY
WITH HIGHS MAINLY IN THE LOWER-MID 80S...EXCEPT THE 70S ALONG THE
S COAST AS WINDS BACK TO SW DURING THE DAY.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
HIGHLIGHTS...

* VERY WARM/HUMID THURSDAY WITH A FEW PM THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE
* DRY AND WARM ON FRIDAY BUT WITH LOWER HUMIDITY
* PERIOD OF SHOWERS/ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE SATURDAY

DETAILS...

WEDNESDAY NIGHT...

MILD TEMPERATURES EXPECTED WEDNESDAY NIGHT OUT AHEAD OF AN
APPROACHING COLD FRONT.  IN FACT...INCREASING LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND
NON-DECOUPLING WINDS SHOULD HOLD OVERNIGHT LOW TEMPS MAINLY IN THE
UPPER 50S TO MIDDLE 60S.  THERE IS A DECENT LOW LEVEL JET...BUT ITS
PRETTY VEERED OUT SO PROBABLY END UP WITH MAINLY A DRY NIGHT.
HOWEVER...MARGINAL ELEVATED INSTABILITY IS PRESENT SO LOW RISK OF A
SPOT SHOWER OR TWO OVERNIGHT.

THURSDAY...

A VERY WARM AND HUMID DAY ON TAP FOR SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.  HIGH
TEMPS MAINLY IN THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 80S AWAY FROM THE SOUTH COAST
AND ITS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION THAT A FEW LOCATIONS TOUCH 90.  IT
WILL ALSO BE HUMID WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE 60S.

THE BIGGEST UNCERTAINTY ON THURSDAY WILL BE IF WE ARE ABLE TO POP A
FEW STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS.  A COLD FRONT WILL BE WORKING
ACROSS THE REGION DURING THE AFTERNOON/EVENING.  GIVEN DEWPOINTS IN
THE 60S AND PLENTY OF HEATING...WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE A
CORRIDOR OF 1500 TO 2000 J/KG OF MLCAPE NEAR AND SOUTH OF MA PIKE
GIVEN TIMING OF FRONT.  0 TO 6 KM SHEAR VALUES WILL BE ON THE ORDER
OF 30 TO 45 KNOTS WITH MARGINAL MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES AROUND 6 C/KM.

THOSE ARE CERTAINLY SOME POSITIVE THINGS FOR POTENTIAL
AFTERNOON/EVENING DEVELOPMENT NEAR AND SOUTH OF MA PIKE.
HOWEVER...AS USUAL THIS IS NOT A CLEAR CUT CASE AND THERE ARE
SEVERAL LIMITING FACTORS.  SHORTWAVE IS WEAK WITH NOT REALLY ANY
HEIGHT FALLS AND SURFACE CONVERGENCE MAY BE LIMITED IF SURFACE WINDS
VEER OUT.  ALSO...A LOT OF DRY AIR IN THE MID LEVELS MAY TRY TO
LIMIT UPDRAFT POTENTIAL.

ALL IN ALL...WILL HAVE TO WATCH FOR THE POTENTIAL FOR A FEW STRONG
TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING MAINLY
NEAR AND SOUTH OF PIKE.  GIVEN LIMITING FACTORS THOUGH WE ARE NOT
COMPLETELY CERTAIN ON WHETHER OR NOT ANYTHING IS ABLE TO DEVELOP.

FRIDAY...

WHILE IT WILL BE ANOTHER WARM DAY WITH TEMPS CLIMBING INTO THE 80S
ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION...HUMIDITY WILL BE LOWER BEHIND THE COLD
FRONT...SO IT WILL BE MORE COMFORTABLE FOR OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES.
ALSO...DRY WEATHER THROUGHOUT THE DAY WITH LITTLE FOCUS OR
INSTABILITY FOR CONVECTION BEHIND THE COLD FRONT.

SATURDAY...

LONG RANGE MODELS SHOW A SHORTWAVE MOVING ACROSS THE REGION.  GIVEN
ITS THE CONVECTIVE SEASON...NOT A LOT OF CONFIDENCE IN
TIMING/LOCATION OF SHORTWAVE.  HOWEVER...CERTAINLY A DECENT SHOT AT
A PERIOD OF SHOWERS AND PERHAPS SOME THUNDER IF ENOUGH INSTABILITY
CAN DEVELOP.  GIVEN CLOUDS AND POTENTIAL PRECIPITATION...EXPECT A
RETURN TO SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES.

SUNDAY AND MONDAY...

LOW CONFIDENCE FORECAST.  PRETTY MUCH IMPOSSIBLE TO TRY TO TIME
SHORTWAVES THIS FAR OUT.  FEELING IS MUCH OF THIS PERIOD WILL BE DRY
WITH SEASONABLE TEMPS...BUT A FEW SHOWERS WILL BE POSSIBLE AT TIMES
WITH PERHAPS A BETTER SHOT ON MONDAY.

&&

AROUND 09Z-11Z. MAY SEE PATCHY FOG WITH MVFR-IFR VSBYS.

WEDNESDAY...LEFTOVER MVFR VSBYS IN THE EARLY MORNING IMPROVING TO VFR.

KBOS TERMINAL...MODERATE CONFIDENCE IN TAF. VFR...COULD SEE A FEW

MVFR-IFR CIGS/VSBYS MAY DEVELOP LATE ACROSS SOUTHEAST NEW ENGLAND.

.MARINE...

TODAY AND TONIGHT...PATCHY FOG WITH REDUCED VSBYS OFF AND ON
THROUGH TONIGHT. COLD FRONT SWEEPS THE WATERS LATE TONIGHT AHEAD
OF WHICH S-SW WINDS CONTINUE TO GUST AROUND 20-25 KTS...THEN
VEERING TO W AND DIMINISHING DURING THE OVERNIGHT. PATCHY FOG
WILL LINGER TONIGHT. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES CONTINUE AS SEAS OF
5-7 FEET GRADUALLY DIMINISH INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING.

WEDNESDAY...WINDS BRIEFLY SHIFT TO W AS FRONT CLEARS THE OUTER
WATERS EARLY...THEN WILL BACK TO SW AS NEXT FRONT BEGINS TO
APPROACH. WILL STILL SEE LEFTOVER SMALL CRAFT WINDS AND SEAS ON
THE OUTER WATERS WED MORNING THEN SHOULD DIMINISH.

OUTLOOK /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...

MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE.  OVERALL...WINDS AND SEAS SHOULD REMAIN
BELOW SCA THRESHOLDS MOST OF THE PERIOD.  HOWEVER...A PERIOD OF NEAR
SHORE SOUTHWEST WIND GUSTS NEAR 25 KNOTS AND CHOPPY SEAS POSSIBLE
THURSDAY AFTERNOON.  ALSO...MAY HAVE TO WATCH FOR A FEW STRONG
THUNDERSTORMS ESPECIALLY NEAR THE SOUTH COAST THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING.  FINALLY...A PERIOD OF SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS
ARE POSSIBLE SATURDAY.
