AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
450 PM EST THU DEC 3 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING DRY WEATHER THROUGH MONDAY WITH A WARMING
TREND THIS WEEKEND. THERE IS STILL QUITE A BIT OF UNCERTAINTY AS
TO WHETHER A DEVELOPING LOW OFF THE MID ATLANTIC COAST EARLY NEXT
WEEK MAY AFFECT THE REGION SOMETIME TUESDAY NIGHT AND/OR
WEDNESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
MAIN FOCUS FOR ANY LIGHT RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS THROUGH EARLY EVENING
WILL BE ACROSS UPSLOPE AREAS ALONG THE W SLOPES OF THE BERKSHIRES
WHICH MAY SPILL INTO THE E SLOPES BUT COVERAGE WILL BE LIMITED.
OTHERWISE...CLEARING SKIES EXPECTED TONIGHT AS SFC RIDGING MOVES
INTO THE REGION WITH GOOD MID LEVEL DRYING.

STRONG WINDS WILL BE A CONCERN INTO THE EARLY EVENING AND SOUNDINGS
SUGGEST THE PEAK OF THE WIND WILL OCCUR LATE THIS AFTERNOON. STEEP
LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES IN PLACE WITH GOOD PRESSURE RISES AND
SOUNDINGS SHOW POTENTIAL FOR GUSTS TO 40 MPH AND CANT RULE OUT ISOLD
GUSTS TO 45-50 MPH OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN IF WE CAN MIX DOWN WINDS
FROM THE TOP OF THE MIXED LAYER.

WINDS WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH TONIGHT...ESPECIALLY IN THE INTERIOR
BUT REMAIN GUSTY UNTIL WELL AFTER MIDNIGHT ALONG THE IMMEDIATE
COAST. LOW TEMPS WILL RANGE FROM THE UPPER 20S TO MID 30S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
FRIDAY...
A SECONDARY MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE WILL BE MOVING THROUGH SNE FRI
AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...THE COLUMN IS QUITE DRY WITH THE BETTER
MOISTURE WELL TO THE N SO EXPECT DRY WEATHER WITH JUST A PERIOD OF
SCT-BKN CU DEVELOPING IN THE INTERIOR DURING THE AFTERNOON. MAX
TEMPS WERE A BLEND OF AVAILABLE GUIDANCE...MID TO UPPER 40S EXCEPT
CLOSER TO 40 ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN.

FRIDAY NIGHT...
SHORTWAVE RAPIDLY MOVES OFFSHORE WITH STRONG HIGH PRES BUILDING
IN FROM THE WEST. EXPECT MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES WITH LIGHT NW WINDS.
MIN TEMPS RANGE FROM MID 20S TO LOWER 30S.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...

HIGHLIGHTS...

* DRY WEATHER AND ABOVE NORMAL TEMPS WILL LAST INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK
* LOW CONFIDENCE FOR ANY RAIN AND/OR WINDS EFFECTING THE REGION FROM
  LOW PRES DEVELOPING OFF THE MID ATLC COAST AROUND TUE-WED TIMEFRAME

OVERVIEW AND MODEL PREFERENCES...
MEDIUM RANGE MODEL SUITE CONTINUES TO SIGNAL SPLIT UPPER FLOW AS
HIGHLY AMPLIFIED BUT PROGRESSIVE RIDGE BUILDS ACROSS CANADA THIS
WEEKEND...THEN TENDS TO FLATTEN OUT BUT REMAINING SPLIT EARLY NEXT
WEEK. BIG QUESTIONS COME INTO PLAY WITH POSSIBLE DEVELOPMENT OF
LOW PRES OFF THE MID ATLC COAST AROUND MON OR TUE AS CUTOFF H5 LOW
MOVES OFF. HAVE BEGUN TO SEE DISTINCT BUT VERY DIFFERENT SOLUTIONS
ON THE 12Z ECMWF/CMC MODELS VS. THE GFS...WITH BOTH INTERNATIONAL
MODELS MOVING THE LOW OFFSHORE WITH LITTLE IF ANY EFFECTS TO THE
REGION. NOTED ONLY A FEW WEAK IMPULSE MON-TUE ON THE ECMWF.
HOWEVER...GFS BRINGS SHOT OF RAINFALL AND GUSTY NE WINDS AROUND
THE TUE NIGHT/WED TIMEFRAME. WILL NEED TO CONTINUE TO WATCH THE
EVOLUTION OF THIS SYSTEM CLOSELY THOUGH.

DEPENDING UPON HOW THE COASTAL LOW EVOLVES...LOOKS LIKE DRY
CONDITIONS RETURN FOR THURSDAY.

USED A BLEND OF AVAILABLE GUIDANCE FOR SAT-MON...THEN
TRANSITIONED OVER TO ENSEMBLE BLEND FOR MON NIGHT-THU DUE TO
FORECAST UNCERTAINTY.

DETAILS...

SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY...HIGH CONFIDENCE.
LARGE HIGH PRES EXPANDS FROM THE OHIO AND TENNESSEE VALLEYS TO
ENCOMPASS PRETTY MUCH THE ENTIRE EASTERN HALF OF THE COUNTRY BY
TUESDAY AS LARGE H5 RIDGE BUILDS INTO NORTHERN QUEBEC. THAT RIDGE
DOES FLATTEN OUT...WITH BROAD TROUGHING MOVING ACROSS LATE SUN/SUN
NIGHT. AS E-W ELONGATED SURFACE HIGH SINKS S LATE THIS WEEKEND...
WILL SEE WEAK COLD FRONT MOVING ACROSS WITH LITTLE IF ANY FANFAIR.
MOISTURE STARVED AND NOT A LOT OF MID LEVEL ENERGY WITH IT. NOTING
WIND SHIFT FROM SW TO NW DURING MON.

WILL SEE SEVERAL LOVELY EARLY WINTER DAYS ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH
AT LEAST SUNDAY. EXPECT GENERALLY MAINLY SUNNY CONDITIONS WITH TEMPS
RUNNING AROUND 10 DEGREES ABOVE SEASONAL NORMALS DURING THE DAY.
SOME CLOUDS MAY PUSH IN DURING MONDAY BUT IT WILL REMAIN MILD.

MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...LOW CONFIDENCE.
HIGH PRES CROSSES SOUTHERN QUEBEC TOWARD NORTHERN MAINE MON
NIGHT-TUESDAY...KEEPING DRY BUT COOLER CONDITIONS IN PLACE ON
E-NE WINDS. THE TRICKY PART COMES INTO PLAY FROM TUE AFTERNOON
THROUGH WED. AS MENTIONED ABOVE...TOUGH CALL ON DEVELOPING MID
ATLC COASTAL LOW /OR NOT/ THAT MAY OR MAY NOT EFFECT THE REGION.
USED ENSEMBLE GUIDANCE AND KEPT ONLY LOW CHANCE POPS GOING FOR NOW
WITH BEST SHOT FOR ANY PRECIP ACROSS SOUTHERN AREAS. THERE IS
POTENTIAL FOR GUSTY NE WINDS AS WELL. THIS IS ALL DEPENDENT UPON
TRACK AND STRENGTH OF THIS LOW. ALSO...DEPENDING UPON TEMP
PROFILE...MIGHT EVEN SEE SOME FREEZING AND/OR FROZEN PRECIP. THE
EVOLUTION OF THIS SYSTEM AS ITS TRACK WILL BE KEY. WILL CONTINUE
TO WATCH THIS CAREFULLY. FOR NOW... CARRIED ONLY CHANCE POPS WITH
MAINLY WET CONDITIONS.

THURSDAY...LOW TO MODERATE CONFIDENCE.
SENSIBLE WEATHER DURING THIS TIMEFRAME WILL BE DEPENDENT UPON
WHAT EVENTUALLY HAPPENS WITH THE COASTAL LOW AND ITS POSSIBLE
EFFECTS TO THE REGION. FOR NOW...ANY LEFTOVER RAIN ACROSS THE
CAPE AND ISLAND EARLY WILL MOVE OFFSHORE AS HIGH PRESSURE RETURNS.

&&

.AVIATION /22Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

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

SHORT TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...

MVFR...ESPECIALLY HIGHER TERRAIN. CLOUD COVERAGE WILL DECREASE BY
LATE AFTERNOON. W/NW GUSTS TO 35 KT EXPECTED TO DEVELOP WITH A FEW
G40KT POSSIBLE OVER HIGHER TERRAIN.

TONIGHT...HIGH CONFIDENCE. MAINLY VFR. LOW RISK OF MVFR OVER THE
BERKSHIRES. NW GUSTS 25-35 KT IN THE EVENING WILL GRADUALLY
DIMINISH THROUGH THE NIGHT.
