AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
113 PM EST THU NOV 26 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE REMAINS AN INFLUENCE ACROSS NEW ENGLAND THROUGH THE
END OF THE WEEK DURING WHICH TIME TEMPERATURES GRADUALLY WARM AS
THE HIGH MOVES OFFSHORE. A COLD FRONT FROM CANADA WILL CROSS THE
REGION FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY. HIGH PRESSURE THEN BRINGS DRY
AND COOLER WEATHER SUNDAY AND MONDAY. A STORM COMING OUT OF THE
WESTERN USA WILL BRING RAIN TO NEW ENGLAND LATE TUESDAY INTO
WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
115 PM UPDATE...
CLOUDS HAVE BEGIN TO FILL IN ACROSS THE REGION...AVERAGING OUT
PARTLY TO MOSTLY CLOUDY. LOW CLOUDS WERE IN EASTERN SECTIONS AND
MAINLY HIGH CLOUDS IN WESTERN SECTIONS. CAPE COD AND THE ISLANDS
WERE SUNNY AS OF 115 PM. IT WAS ON THE BREEZY SIDE IN EASTERN MA
AND RI WITH GUSTS TO 20 TO 25 MPH...ESPECIALLY AT THE COAST. THERE
WAS A GUST TO 30 MPH AT WORCESTER THIS PAST HOUR...AT A HIGHER
ELEVATION. TEMPERATURES WERE ON THE VERGE OF SURPASSING FORECASTED
HIGHS IN SOUTHEAST MA...BUT WITH CLOUD COVER ON THE INCREASE IT IS
ON TRACK...MAINLY FROM THE MID 50S TO NEAR 60 ACROSS THE REGION.&&

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

CONTINUED ANTICYCLONIC FLOW ROUND THE STRONGER AREA OF HIGH
PRESSURE TO THE E COUPLED WITH OVERNIGHT COOLING ... EXPECTING THE
LOW CLOUD DECK TO THICKEN AND LOWER. MORE MOISTURE IN THE AIR AS
DEWPOINTS KEEP RISING WITH THE ONSHORE FLOW. VALUES AROUND THE
LOW-40S SIMILAR TO SOIL TEMPERATURES WITHIN THE FIRST 5 CM.
GREATER INDICATIONS OF A SHALLOW UNIFORM MOIST PROFILE YIELDING
EITHER DRIZZLE AND/OR PATCHY DENSE FOG. THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR
SOUPY CONDITIONS AS BOTH THE NAM AND GFS BUFKIT SOUNDINGS SUGGEST
... BUT NOT ENTIRELY SOLD AS THERE WOULD BE HIGHER CONFIDENCE IF
DEWPOINTS WERE HIGHER RATHER THAN SIMILAR TO SOIL TEMPERATURES.
MAV / MET GUIDANCE DOES SUGGEST SOME VISIBILITY ISSUES OVER THE
CT-RIVER VALLEY. MIXED GUIDANCE SO WILL NOT LEAN PESSIMISTIC WITH
FOG AND/OR DRIZZLE AND RATHER FOCUS ON THE LOW CLOUD DECKS OVERALL
WHICH SEEMINGLY LOOK TO REMAIN AN ISSUE AROUND CENTRAL AND WESTERN
PORTIONS OF S NEW ENGLAND. WILL LIKELY CONTINUE TO SEE SOME HIGH
DECKS FILTER IN FROM THE W AS WELL. WINDS DIMINISH AS THEY BACK
OUT OF THE SW.

FRIDAY ...

EXPECTATION IS FOR THE CLOUD DECK TO ERODE BY TWO MEANS: ENTRAINMENT
OF LOW-LEVEL DRY AIR AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING WEATHER SYSTEM FROM THE
W ... AND SUBSEQUENT BOUNDARY-LAYER MIXING AS SUNSHINE BECOMES MORE
ABUNDANT AND TEMPERATURES WARM INTO THE LOW-60S. LOOKING LIKE A
FANTASTIC DAY OVERALL AFTER SOME MORNING CLOUDINESS. RECORD HIGH
TEMPERATURES ARE AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS DISCUSSION ... AND PRESENT
THINKING IS THAT WE WILL COME CLOSE TO RECORD HIGHS AT ALL CLIMATE
SITES NOTED EXCEPT BOSTON. BREEZY SW-WINDS WITH GUSTS UP TO 25 MPH
POSSIBLE.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
BIG PICTURE...

REX BLOCK OVER THE WESTERN USA THIS WEEKEND WILL BREAK DOWN LATE
SUNDAY INTO MONDAY. THIS WILL EJECT AN UPPER LOW INTO THE PLAINS
THAT REACHES NEW ENGLAND DURING MIDWEEK.

MODEL BEHAVIOR IS SIMILAR THROUGH MIDWEEK NEXT WEEK. THE ECMWF HAS
HAD A HISTORY OF RACING WELL AHEAD OF THE OTHER MODELS WITH THE
EJECTING WESTERN LOW. BUT WITH THIS MODEL PACKAGE THE TIMING
DIFFERENCES ARE GREATLY REDUCED...AND TREND TOWARD THE SLOWER
MODELS. THE FORECAST TRENDS TOWARD THIS CONSENSUS WHICH CONTINUES TO
FAVOR PCPN ONSET SEVERAL HOURS SLOWER THAN MODEL POPS WOULD INDICATE.

THE DAILIES...

FRIDAY NIGHT-SATURDAY...COLD FRONT ACROSS NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND AND
CENTRAL NEW YORK MOVES SOUTHEAST ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND LATE
FRIDAY NIGHT OR EARLY SATURDAY MORNING. BEST DYNAMICS REMAIN TO OUR
NORTH BUT SUFFICIENT LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE TO SUPPORT LOW-END CHANCE
POPS WITH THE FROPA. HIGH PRESSURE AND NORTH WIND WILL BRING DRIER
AIR AND CLEARING SKIES SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND NIGHT.

SUNDAY-MONDAY... ANOTHER NORTHERN STREAM SHORTWAVE BREEZES THROUGH
ON SUNDAY BUT WITH LIMITED LIFT AND MOISTURE. THIS WOULD BRING WINDS
AROUND TO WEST DURING SUNDAY FOLLOWED BY A SHIFT TO NORTH OR
NORTHEAST AFTER FROPA. BUT LITTLE OR NO PCPN WITH THE SFC FRONT.
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND MONDAY. MAX TEMPS
WILL BE A FEW DEGREES LESS COLD ON SUNDAY...THEN COOLER MONDAY
BEHIND THE FRONT...BUT GENERALLY IN THE 40S BOTH DAYS. MIN TEMPS IN
THE 20S INLAND AND 30S ALONG THE COAST.

TUESDAY-WEDNESDAY... THE EJECTING UPPER LOW FROM THE WEST WILL MOVE
ACROSS THE CENTRAL USA MONDAY AND GENERATES A SURFACE LOW OVER THE
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY MONDAY. LONG-RANGE MODELS ARE SIMILAR IN BRINGING
THE DIFLUENT ZONE IN THE UPPER FLOW OVER NEW ENGLAND DURING THE
AFTERNOON/EVENING TUESDAY. AT THIS SAME TIME SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE
SHIFTS WELL OFFSHORE. A 40-KNOT LOW LEVEL JET MOVES UP ACROSS NEW
ENGLAND BY TUESDAY NIGHT WITH INCREASING AND DEEPENING
