AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
125 PM EDT SAT MAY 9 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW CLOUDS WILL GRADUALLY BURN OFF THROUGH THE AFTERNOON WITH
PERHAPS THE EXCEPTION OF THE SOUTH COAST, DRY WEATHER CONTINUES
ON SUNDAY BUT WITH MUCH WARMER TEMPERATURES. AN APPROACHING COLD
FRONT MAY BRING A ROUND OR TWO OF SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS MONDAY AND/OR TUESDAY...WITH THE BEST CHANCE ACROSS
INTERIOR SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND. SUBTROPICAL STORM ANA SHOULD PASS
SOUTH OF THE REGION DURING TUESDAY...BUT MAY RESULT IN SOME HIGH
SURF ALONG THE SOUTH COAST.

&&

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

LOW CLOUDS HAVE RETREATED TO S COAST...CAPE COD AND ISLANDS WITH
EXCEPTION OF FEW PATCHY LEFTOVER CLOUDS ACROSS INTERIOR. EXPERIMENTAL
GOES-E IFR PROBS CONTINUE TO SHOW HIGHEST VALUES CONFINED TO
SHORELINE AND POINTS OFFSHORE...WHICH IS WHERE CLOUD BANK WILL
REMAIN THROUGH LATE AFTERNOON BEFORE HEADING INLAND ONCE AGAIN
THIS EVENING.

&&

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

MOIST SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL ALLOW LOW CLOUDS AND FOG PATCHES
TO ADVECT BACK INTO THE REGION.  AREAS OF FOG ARE ALSO EXPECTED TO
DEVELOP...ESPECIALLY NEAR THE SOUTH COAST WHERE SOME DENSE FOG IS
POSSIBLE.  IT WILL BE A MILD NIGHT AS DEWPOINTS CLIMB.  THIS WILL
HOLD OVERNIGHT LOW TEMPS IN THE UPPER 50S TO THE LOWER 60S.

SUNDAY...

UPPER LEVEL RIDGE AND ABNORMALLY HIGH HEIGHT FIELDS FOR EARLY MAY
WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.  UNLIKE
TODAY...BOUNDARY LAYER FLOW WILL BE STRONGER AND MORE FROM THE
SOUTHWEST.  THIS WILL ALLOW LOW CLOUDS TO QUICKLY SCOUR OUR OUT BY
MID MORNING...EXCEPT ALONG THE SOUTH COAST/CAPE/ISLANDS WHERE THEY
MAY LINGER THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.  ACROSS THE REST OF THE
REGION...EXPECT A VERY WARM AFTERNOON.  DEWPOINTS BETWEEN 55 AND 60
WILL MAKE IT FEEL A BIT MORE HUMID THEN WE HAVE SEEN SO FAR THIS
SEASON...BUT BY NO MEANS EXTREME.  GIVEN 850 MB TEMPS AROUND
14C...EXPECT HIGH TEMPS TO REACH INTO THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 80S TO THE
NORTHWEST OF A BOSTON TO PROVIDENCE LINE.  SOUTHEAST OF THIS
REGION...IT WILL BE A FEW DEGREES COOLER ESPECIALLY NEAR THE SOUTH
COAST GIVEN THE MARINE IMPACT.

DRY WEATHER EXPECTED...ALTHOUGH THERE IS A LOW RISK OF A SPOT
SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM OR TWO IN OUR FAR NORTHWEST ZONES WITH SOME
MARGINAL INSTABILITY.  HOWEVER...BETTER FORCING WILL BE TO OUR
NORTHWEST GIVEN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE NOSING INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
SO WE MAY NOT SEE ANYTHING AT ALL.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
HIGHLIGHTS...

 * EXPECT MILD CONDITIONS WITH INCREASING HUMIDITY SUN NIGHT AND
   MONDAY
 * LOW CLOUDS AND FOG HANG ALONG THE COAST
 * REMNANTS OF ANA WILL PASS S OF NEW ENGLAND AS A COLD FRONT
   PUSHES ACROSS DURING TUE
 * HIGH PRESSURE BRINGS COOLER AND DRY FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE
   WEEK

DISCUSSION...

MODELS AND ENSEMBLES IN RATHER GOOD AGREEMENT FOR MOST IF NOT ALL
OF THIS FORECAST PERIOD. RIDGING WILL CONTINUE...SO EXPECT
SUBSIDENCE TO REMAIN IN PLACE AND KEEP MAINLY DRY CONDITIONS
SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY. HOWEVER...WITH INCREASING HUMIDITIES
/DEWPTS RISING TO THE LOWER-MID 60S ESPECIALLY ACROSS CENTRAL AND
SOUTHERN AREAS/...DIURNAL INSTABILITY MAY CAUSE A FEW STRAY
SHOWERS OR EVEN A THUNDERSTORM TO DEVELOP MAINLY ACROSS CENTRAL
AND NORTHERN MASSACHUSETTS INTO N CENTRAL CT DURING MONDAY/MONDAY
EVENING. BEST CHANCE WILL BE WELL INLAND WHERE K INDICES ARE
FORECAST TO BE IN THE LOWER 30S.

COLD FRONT WILL FINALLY...SLOWLY WORK OUT OF THE GREAT LAKES/OHIO
VALLEY...BUDGING THE BLOCKING RIDGE AS THE REMNANTS OF ANA ALSO
START TO SHIFT E-NE MONDAY NIGHT-TUE. THE REMNANTS SHOULD PASS
WELL S...BUT ATTENDANT S-SW SWELLS AHEAD OF THE SYSTEM WILL BUILD
INTO S FACING COASTAL AREAS ESPECIALLY ON TUE AND MAY CONTINUE
INTO WED AS THEY SLOWLY SUBSIDE. WILL NEED TO MONITOR FOR THE
POSSIBILITY OF HIGH SURF ADVISORIES ALONG PORTIONS OF THE S COAST.

BEST CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE LATE MON NIGHT
AND DURING TUE AS COLD FRONT WORKS ACROSS. BEST INSTABILITY ALSO
IN PLACE...SO THERE COULD BE A CHANCE FOR STRONG STORMS ESPECIALLY
AWAY FROM THE S COAST. HAVE MENTIONED THIS POSSIBILITY IN THE
HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK. INCREASED HUMIDITY AND PWAT/S OVER 1.5
INCHES MAY ALSO CAUSE SOME LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS...WHICH MAY
TRAIN ALONG THE SLOW MOVING FRONT IF THEY ORGANIZE NEAR OR AHEAD
OF IT.

CONTINUED LOW CLOUDS AND AREAS OF FOG WILL CONTINUE ACROSS COASTAL
AREAS...WHICH MAY ACTUALLY SHIFT A BIT FARTHER INLAND SUN NIGHT/EARLY
MON AND MON NIGHT/TUE WITH THE INCREASED DEWPTS.

MEDIUM RANGE MODELS AND ENSEMBLES HAVE BEEN IN REMARKABLY GOOD
AGREEMENT FOR THE MID TO LATE WEEK FORECAST. ONCE THE FRONT
CLEARS THE COAST LATE TUE...UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL PUSH E TUE
NIGHT. LARGE HIGH PRES WILL BUILD SLOWLY E WITH INCREASING NW FLOW
ALOFT BRINGING DRY BUT COOLER CONDITIONS FOR THE WED-FRI
TIMEFRAME. HIGHS ON THU MAY ACTUALLY RUN UP TO 5 DEGREES BELOW
SEASONAL NORMALS FOR MID MAY. BY NEXT FRIDAY...MIGHT START TO SEE
MORE DEEP MOISTURE WORK NORTHWARD FROM THE GULF OF MEXICO...BUT
HAVE KEPT A DRY FORECAST GOING FOR NOW.

&&

.AVIATION /17Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

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

MODERATE CONFIDENCE. IFR CIGS WILL PERSIST NEAR CAPE COD/ISLANDS
THROUGH LATE AFTERNOON WHILE OTHER LOCATIONS REMAIN VFR. LOW
CLOUDS/FOG HEAD BACK INLAND TONIGHT WITH WIDESPREAD IFR/LIFR...
ESPECIALLY NEAR COAST. INCREASING SW WINDS SHOULD BRING FASTER
IMPROVEMENT TO MVFR AND EVENTUALLY VFR SUN MORNING...EXCEPT ON
IMMEDIATE S COAST...CAPE COD AND ISLANDS WHERE IT WILL LINGER INTO
EARLY AFTERNOON.

AN ISOLATED SHOWER/TSTM POSSIBLE ACROSS NW MA LATE SUN AFTERNOON
OR SUN NIGHT...OTHERWISE VFR. ONCE AGAIN EXPECT IFR/LIFR TO
REDEVELOP ALONG S COAST...CAPE COD AND ISLANDS.

KBOS TAF...MODERATE CONFIDENCE...MAINLY DUE TO SOME UNCERTAINTY AS
TO TIMING OF ONSET OF LOWER CIGS.

KBDL TAF...MODERATE CONFIDENCE...MAINLY DUE TO SOME UNCERTAINTY AS

OUTLOOK...MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...

MONDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

VFR. BREEZY SW FLOW. IFR-LIFR LOW CLOUDS/FOG ALONG S/SE SHORELINE
TERMINALS...ENCROACHING INTO THE INTERIOR DURING THE OVERNIGHT
INTO MORNING PERIODS. -DZ POSSIBLE WITH LOW STRATUS AND FOG. LOW
CONFIDENCE -SHRA / TSRA OVER N MA INTO N CENTRAL DURING MON.

TUESDAY...LOW CONFIDENCE.

COLD FRONT SLOWLY MOVES ACROSS REGION. MIX OF LOW END VFR DOWN TO
IFR CIGS. LOWEST CONDITIONS EXPECTED ALONG COAST. BREEZY SW-
WINDS. SCT -SHRA EXPECTED. LOW CONFIDENCE TSRA.

VFR CONDITIONS. NW WINDS MAY GUSTING UP TO 20 KTS.

&&

.MARINE...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

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

SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...

TODAY AND TONIGHT...MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE.  WEAK PRESSURE
GRADIENT WILL KEEP WINDS/SEAS BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY THRESHOLDS.
THE MAIN CONCERN FOR MARINERS WILL BE AREAS OF FOG...WHICH COULD BE
LOCALLY DENSE AT TIMES ESPECIALLY THIS MORNING AND AGAIN TONIGHT.

SUNDAY...MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE.  DECENT MIXING OVER THE LAND
WILL RESULT IN A FEW HOURS OF NEAR SHORE SOUTHWEST WIND GUSTS TO 25
KNOTS DURING THE AFTERNOON.  SINCE ITS A 3RD PERIOD/MARGINAL EVENT
WILL HOLD OFF ON HEADLINES FOR NOW...BUT WILL NEED TO CONSIDER NEAR
SHORE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES.

OUTLOOK...SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...

SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

S-SW WINDS REMAIN BELOW SMALL CRAFT CRITERIA. SEAS MAY REACH
CLOSE TO 5 FT ON THE EASTERN OUTER WATERS FOR A TIME SUNDAY NIGHT.
EXPECT LOW CLOUDS AND FOG WITH REDUCED VSBYS DUE TO INCREASING
HUMIDITY ON THE S-SW WIND FLOW. SCT SHOWERS REACH THE EASTERN
WATERS LATE MON.

MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT...LOW CONFIDENCE.

REMNANTS OF SUBTROPICAL STORM ANA WILL PASS S OF THE WATERS WITH
S-SW SWELLS BUILDING ACROSS THE SOUTHERN WATERS INCLUDING RI AND
BI SOUNDS. SWELLS MAY INCREASE TO AS HIGH AS 8-10 FT WELL
OFFSHORE. SW WIND GUSTS UP TO 20 KT ALSO EXPECTED. SCATTERED
SHOWERS WITH LOW CHANCE OF TSTMS AS COLD FRONT CROSSES DURING TUE.
LOW CHANCE FOR WIND GUSTS AOA 25 KT AHEAD OF THE FRONT. VSBYS
RESTRICTIONS WITH PRECIP AND PATCHY FOG...IMPROVING DURING TUE
NIGHT.

WEDNESDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

WIND SHIFT TO W-NW WITH GUSTS TO 20 KT. LEFTOVER SWELLS UP TO 5-7
FT WED WILL SLOWLY SUBSIDE BUT MAY LINGER AT AROUND 5 FT ON THE
FAR SOUTHERN OUTER WATERS INTO WED NIGHT.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
SUNDAY...
TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO WARM INTO THE MIDDLE TO UPPER TO 80S
TO THE NORTHWEST OF A BOSTON TO PROVIDENCE LINE. GOOD MIXING OVER
THE LAND WILL LIKELY RESULT IN A FEW HOURS OF SOUTHWEST WIND GUSTS
OF 20 TO 30 MPH DURING THE AFTERNOON. GIVEN HIGHER DEWPOINTS...
RELATIVE HUMIDITIES WILL NOT BE AS LOW AS WE HAVE SEEN RECENTLY
BUT STILL ON THE ORDER OF 30 TO 40 PERCENT ACROSS PORTIONS OF OUR
INTERIOR ZONES.

...ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER POTENTIAL SUNDAY ACROSS MUCH OF SOUTHERN
NEW ENGLAND...

THE RECENT LACK OF RAINFALL HAS LED TO VERY DRY FUEL CONDITIONS
ACROSS MUCH OF THE REGION. SOUTHWEST WINDS GUSTING AS HIGH AS 20
TO 25 MPH SUNDAY AFTERNOON WILL RESULT IN AN ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER
POTENTIAL...DESPITE HUMIDITY VALUES BETWEEN 40 AND 50 PERCENT.

THIS IS ESPECIALLY TRUE ACROSS NORFOLK...NORTHERN BRISTOL AND
NORTHERN PLYMOUTH COUNTIES IN EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS WHERE WIND
GUSTS AS HIGH AS 30 MPH ARE EXPECTED.
