AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
332 AM EDT WED JUL 1 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL BRING SHOWERS...AND A CHANCE FOR STRONG TO
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS...INTO THIS AFTERNOON. THIS FRONT STALLS
NEAR THE SOUTH COAST THURSDAY...BEFORE MOVING OFFSHORE THURSDAY
NIGHT. ASIDE FROM A SPOT SHOWER POSSIBLE SATURDAY...MAINLY DRY AND
SEASONABLE WEATHER IS EXPECTED INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
A POTENT MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE AND ITS ASSOCIATED COLD POOL ALOFT WILL
APPROACH SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND EARLY THIS MORNING. THIS WILL BE
ENOUGH TO INITIATE SOME SHOWERS. SURFACE INSTABILITY REMAINS LACKING
DURING THIS TIME. HOWEVER...THERE IS SOME ELEVATED INSTABILITY
LEADING TO A FEW THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS WESTERN NEW ENGLAND. RECENT
TRENDS HAVE BEEN FOR THESE THUNDERSTORMS TO WEAKEN AS THE MOVE
FARTHER EAST.

THE LARGER QUESTION WILL BE HOW QUICKLY DEEPER INSTABILITY CAN BE
DEVELOPED THIS MORNING. GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO ADVERTISE A QUICK
INCREASE OF CAPE TO AROUND 1000 J/KG. WE ALSO NOTED THE ARRIVAL OF
RATHER STRONG LOW LEVEL SHEAR...WHICH WILL ONLY HELP TO FOCUS THIS
ENERGY. THAT SAID...WE DO NOT SEEM TO MAXIMIZE THE SHEAR AND
INSTABILITY AT THE SAME TIME. THUS...NOT EXPECTING WIDESPREAD
SEVERE WEATHER AT THIS TIME. THINKING IS FOR A FEW STRONG TO
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS...WITH THE MAIN THREAT BEING DAMAGING WINDS
AND/OR HAIL.

PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES REMAIN NEAR 2.0 INCHES INTO EARLY
AFTERNOON. COUPLED WITH THE STRONG LOW LEVEL JET...THIS IS A
RECIPE FOR HEAVY RAINFALL WITHIN THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. A
QUICK INCH OF RAIN IN LESS THAN AN HOUR IS NOT UNREASONABLE. THIS
COULD RESULT IN POOR DRAINAGE AND URBAN FLOODING. THE BENEFIT OF
THE STRONG LOW LEVEL JET IS STORMS SHOULD MOVE ALONG AT A FAIRLY
GOOD SPEED. THIS WILL REDUCE THE LIKELIHOOD OF FLOODING SOMEWHAT.
MAIN FLOODING THREAT WILL BE WITH ANY TRAINING THUNDERSTORMS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/...
A FEW LEFTOVER SHOWERS...AND PERHAPS A THUNDERSTORM OR TWO...ARE
STILL POSSIBLE EARLY THIS EVENING. OTHERWISE EXPECTING DRY
CONDITIONS FOR MOST OF TONIGHT. A COLD FRONT WILL BE SLOWLY
CROSSING OUR REGION TONIGHT...LIKELY STALLING NEAR THE SOUTH COAST
OF NEW ENGLAND FOR A TIME LATE TONIGHT INTO THURSDAY. LATEST
GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO ADVERTISE A DRY ATMOSPHERE...SO EXPECTING
MOST OF THURSDAY.

&&

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

 * SEASONABLE TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES EXPECTED.
 * LOW CHANCE OF A SHOWER MAINLY ON THE 4TH.

OVERVIEW AND MODEL PREFERENCES...MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE A SHIFT
IN THE OVERALL PATTERN FROM A HIGHLY AMPLIFIED REGIME TO ONE THAT IS
MORE PROGRESSIVE AND ZONAL.  THIS IS IN SPITE OF THE FAIRLY ROBUST
RIDGES IN PLACE ACROSS THE E PACIFIC AND THE BERMUDA HIGH N OF THE
ANTILLES.  ALTHOUGH THIS MORE ZONAL FLOW PATTERN DOES TAKE ON A
LONGWAVE TROF FEATURE BETWEEN THE TWO RIDGES...IT IS NOT OVERLY
DEEP/SHARP.  THIS ALLOWS THE RIDGING ASSOCIATED WITH THE BERMUDA
HIGH TO BECOME THE DOMINANT PLAYER FOR OUR SENSIBLE WX INTO EARLY
NEXT WEEK.  AT THIS POINT A MUCH DEEPER NRN STREAM VORTEX WILL BE IN
PLAY...AND WILL TRANSITION THE DRIER AND MORE STABLE REGIME ACROSS
THE NE CONUS TO A MORE UNSETTLED PATTERN.  THE ONLY FLY IN THE
OINTMENT IS ON THE 4TH UNFORTUNATELY...BUT MORE ON THAT BELOW.

DETAILS...

THU NIGHT INTO FRI...THE FIRST IN A SERIES OF MID LVL RIDGES WILL
BE MOVING THROUGH THE ZONAL FLOW PATTERN DURING THIS PERIOD. THIS
INTRODUCES A MAINLY DRY PERIOD WITH WEAK HIGH PRES IN PLACE ACROSS
SRN NEW ENGLAND. THERE REMAINS A FRONT STALLED TO THE S...WITH
SOME UPPER LVL MOISTURE SUGGESTING SOME PARTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS.
OTHERWISE...H85 TEMPS BETWEEN +10C AND +12C SUGGEST HIGHS NEAR TO
SLIGHTLY ABOVE SEASONAL NORMALS ACROSS THE REGION AWAY FROM THE
COAST WERE SEA BREEZES ARE LIKELY.

FRI NIGHT INTO SAT NIGHT...WITH THIS NEARLY ZONAL FLOW IN
PLACE...IT/S NOT JUST RIDGING...BUT WEAK SHORTWAVES TO CONCERN
OURSELVES WITH. MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE A WEAK PACKET OF
ENERGY PASSING THROUGH THE REGION DURING THE EARLY WEEKEND. THE
OVERALL COLUMN IS RELATIVELY DRY...WITH PWATS NEAR NORMAL FOR
EARLY JULY. HOWEVER...WITH THE FRONT STALLED TO THE S...THE
DEVELOPMENT OF A WEAK WAVE OF LOW PRES COULD BRING ABOUT MODEST
LIFT ALONG THE SRN TIER OF SRN NEW ENGLAND DURING THE DAY SAT.
THERE ARE TWO CAMPS HERE...GFS AND SOME ENSEMBLE MEMBERS WITH QPF
ACROSS THE REGION...AND THE ECMWF AND OTHER ENSEMBLE MEMBERS
WITHOUT. THEREFORE...CONFIDENCE NOT HIGH ON PRECIP CHANCES...BUT
IT IS LIKELY TO NOT BE A WASHOUT IN EITHER CASE GIVEN HOW WEAK THE
WAVE IS AND THE LACK OF MOISTURE. JUST A FEW PASSING SHOWERS TO
CONTEND WITH.

SUN INTO MON...AS DEEP ER WAVE FORMS ACROSS THE CANADIAN PRAIRIE
LANDS...A SECONDARY RIDGE WILL AMPLIFY IN RESPONSE TO WARM
ADVECTION FROM THE BERMUDA HIGH TO THE SE. THIS WILL YIELD ANOTHER
PERIOD OF DRIER AND WARMER CONDITIONS ACROSS SRN NEW ENGLAND.
BETTER CHANCES FOR TEMPS INCHING ABOVE NORMAL DURING THIS
STRETCH...THANKS TO MORE INFLUENCE FROM THE SE.

TOWARD MID WEEK...THE AFOREMENTIONED WAVE WILL BEGIN A SLIDE TO
THE E. THIS PARTICULAR FEATURE IS MORE ROBUST THAN PREVIOUS
WAVES...SO IT/S LIKELY A PERIOD OF WETTER AND UNSETTLED WX WILL
RETURN BY THE MID PORTION OF NEXT WEEK. UNCERTAINTY IN EXACT
TIMING.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

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

THROUGH 12Z...MODERATE CONFIDENCE. TIMING ISSUES REMAIN THE LOWEST
CONFIDENCE PART OF THE FORECAST. SHOWERS AND ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS ALREADY MOVING INTO WESTERN NEW ENGLAND...WITH
CONDITIONS LOWERING TO MVFR.

TODAY...HIGH PROBABILITY FOR WIDESPREAD SHRA AND SCATTERED TSRA.
RISK FOR A FEW STRONG STORMS AND HEAVY RAINFALL. IFR AND MVFR
CONDITIONS LIKELY IN SHRA/TSRA. CONDITIONS IMPROVING TO VFR DURING
THIS AFTERNOON...BUT SCT TSRA MAY REDEVELOP.

TONIGHT...MODERATE CONFIDENCE. PATCHY MVFR/IFR STRATUS AND FOG
DEVELOPING...OTHERWISE VFR.

THU...HIGH CONFIDENCE. VFR.

KBOS TERMINAL...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAF TRENDS. MODERATE CONFIDENCE
IN TIMING.

KBDL TERMINAL...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAF TRENDS. MODERATE CONFIDENCE
IN TIMING.

OUTLOOK...THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...

HIGH CONFIDENCE. MAINLY VFR. A FEW SHOWERS POSSIBLE ON SAT...BUT
MAINLY DRY OTHERWISE. SEA BREEZES LIKELY MOST DAYS.

&&

.MARINE...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

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

WINDS AND SEAS WILL INCREASE IN RESPONSE TO A FRONTAL SYSTEM
APPROACHING THE WATERS LATER TODAY. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES HAVE
BEEN EXTENDED FOR THE SOUTHERN OUTER WATERS AND RHODE ISLAND AND
BLOCK ISLAND SOUNDS.

OUTLOOK...THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...

THU NIGHT INTO FRI...HIGH CONFIDENCE. WEAK RIDGE OF HIGH PRES WILL
BE MOVING OVER THE WATERS THROUGH THE PERIOD.  ANY LINGERING SWELL
ABOVE 5 FT WILL RECEDE OVERNIGHT WITH QUIET BOATING WX EXPECTED
THROUGH THE REST OF FRI.

SAT AND SUNDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE. THIS PERIOD WILL BE
DEPENDENT ON HOW CLOSELY A WEAK WAVE OF LOW PRES PASSES TO THE S
COAST ON SAT. IF IT PASSES CLOSE ENOUGH...A PERIOD OF SWELLS
EXCEEDING 5 FT IS POSSIBLE. OTHERWISE...MAINLY QUIET BOATING
WEATHER WILL CONTINUE ESPECIALLY AS HIGH PRES RETURNS SUNDAY.
