AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
126 PM EST SUN DEC 13 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A BACKDOOR COLD FRONT WILL RESULT IN COOLER TEMPERATURES TODAY BUT
IT WILL STILL REMAIN UNSEASONABLY MILD INTO MUCH OF NEXT WEEK. SOME
DRIZZLE MONDAY WILL TRANSITION TO WIDESPREAD SHOWERS MONDAY NIGHT AS
A COLD FRONT MOVES INTO THE REGION. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO NEW
ENGLAND AROUND MIDWEEK...THEN A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE MAY BRING MORE
RAIN THURSDAY INTO THURSDAY NIGHT. COLDER WEATHER FOLLOWS FOR NEXT
WEEKEND WITH TEMPS CLOSE TO NORMAL.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
120 PM UPDATE...
MOISTURE TRAPPED IN THE LOW LEVELS IS ALLOWING FOR A CONSIDERABLE
ABOUNT OF CLOUDINESS ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND. THIS MOISTURE
DOES NOT MIX OUT SO EXPECT MAINLY CLOUDY SKIES TO PREVAIL THRU THE
REMAINDER OF THE DAY. EVEN WITHOUT MUCH BY WAY OF SUNSHINE IT IS
STILL QUITE A MILD DAY BY MID DECEMBER STANDARDS. TEMPERATURES
WILL HOVER IN THE 50S THIS AFTERNOON...EXCEPT UPPER 40S ACROSS
SOME OF THE HIGHER TERRAIN.

EARLY MORNING DISCUSSION FOLLOWS...
645 AM UPDATE...
BACKDOOR FRONT S OF NEW ENG WITH LIGHT N WINDS AND NUMEROUS
STRATO-CU WHICH WILL DEFINE THE DAY WITH BKN- OVC SKIES
CONTINUING. THEREFORE...COOLER TEMPS EXPECTED IN COMPARISON TO
SAT...BUT STILL ABOVE NORMAL DUE TO A LACK OF SIG SNOW COVER IN
NRN NEW ENGLAND AND SSTS IN THE 50S. EXPECT HIGHS MAINLY IN THE
LOW-MID 50S BUT CLOSER TO 50 NORTH CENTRAL AND NE MA. A FEW UPPER
50S POSSIBLE MAINLY IN CT THANKS TO A HIGHER POSSIBILITY OF A
BREAK IN THE CLOUD COVER.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM MONDAY/...
TONIGHT...
MOISTURE REMAINS TRAPPED BENEATH A SUBSIDENCE INVERSION WHICH
BEGINS ABOUT H8 PER BUFKIT DATA. AS THE MID LVL RIDGE CRESTS
/HEIGHTS WILL ALSO BE FALLING IN RESPONSE TO OCCLUDING CUTOFF THE
THE W/ WILL LIKELY SEE THE INVERSION DESCEND. AT THE SAME TIME
CONTINUED INCREASE IN OVERALL MOISTURE...ESPECIALLY AT THE SFC
WILL LEAD TO AN INCREASED RISK FOR DRIZZLE/FOG DEVELOPMENT ACROSS
SRN NEW ENGLAND ESPECIALLY AFTER MIDNIGHT...AND EVEN MORESO TOWARD
DAYBREAK. A FEW OUTRIGHT SHOWERS POSSIBLE TOO AS THE UPPER LVL
FRONT BEGINS TO SHIFT N AHEAD OF THE TRAPPED SFC FRONT.
HOWEVER...PER BUFKIT...WILL LEAN MORE ON DRIZZLE THAN SHRA. MILD
OVERNIGHT MINS WITH CLOUDY CONDITIONS...MOS IS LIKELY A BIT TOO
COOL.  EXPECT MAINLY 40S.

MON...
CONTINUED DESCENT OF SUBSIDENCE INVERSION AS UPPER LVL RIDGE
BEGINS SHIFTING E AND OVERALL COLUMN MOISTURE BEGINS TO INCREASE
AHEAD OF THE MON NIGHT OCCLUSION. EXPECT CLOUDY/DRIZZLE/SHRA
ACTIVITY TO ONLY INCREASE IN COVERAGE THROUGH THE DAY...ENHANCED
BY WARM ADVECTION. COLD AIR DAMMING SIGNATURE APPARENT IN
MODELS...SAGGING IN MASS FIELDS AND OVERALL TROF IN POTENTIAL TEMP
PROFILES ACROSS THE INTERIOR. THEREFORE...COLD FRONT IS LIKELY TO
GET HELD UP UNTIL OVERNIGHT LLJ MIXES LOW-LVLS AND LIFTS IT N.
THEREFORE...LEANED ON 2M TEMPS WHICH SHOWED THIS SIGNATURE BEST.
EXPECT HIGHS ONLY IN THE LOW 50S SOUTH...TO UPPER MID 40S N.

&&

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

* WIDESPREAD SHOWERS MON NIGHT WITH GUSTY WINDS ALONG THE COAST
* WINDY AND UNSEASONABLY MILD TUE...THEN COOLER WED
* MORE RAIN LIKELY THU INTO THU NIGHT
* BLUSTERY AND COLDER NEXT WEEKEND WITH TEMPS CLOSE TO SEASONABLE
  NORMALS

OVERVIEW...
AFTER ROBUST MID LEVEL LOW MOVES TO THE EAST...RIDGING BUILDS BACK
INTO NEW ENG WITH RISING HEIGHTS THROUGH MIDWEEK CONTINUING THE
STRETCH OF MILD WEATHER. MODEL DIFFERENCES BEGIN TO INCREASE TOWARD
THE END OF THE WEEK REGARDING THE AMPLITUDE OF LONGWAVE TROF
APPROACHING FROM THE WEST WHICH AFFECTS TIMING OF IMPROVING
CONDITIONS AND ONSET OF COLDER AIR LATE IN THE WEEK INTO NEXT
WEEKEND. GFS IS THE FLATTEST AND MOST PROGRESSIVE OF THE MODEL SUITE
WHILE ECMWF IS MOST AMPLIFIED AND SHOWS A SECOND WAVE TRACKING S OF
NEW ENG FRI NIGHT. MANY OF THE GEFS MEMBERS AS WELL AS UKMET SUPPORT
A MORE AMPLIFIED SOLUTION THAN DETERMINISTIC GFS SO WE USED A MODEL
BLEND TO SMOOTH OUT THE DIFFERENCES. IT DOES APPEAR A FRONTAL WAVE
WILL BRING A PERIOD OF RAIN THU INTO THU NIGHT...WHICH MAY LINGER
INTO FRI DEPENDING ON THE AMPLITUDE OF THE TROF. COLDER AIR WILL
LIKELY BE DELAYED UNTIL FRI NIGHT INTO SAT.

DETAILS...

MON NIGHT...
MODELS HAVE TRENDED A BIT WEAKER AND FURTHER S WITH THE LOW LEVEL
JET WHICH WILL LIKELY RESULT IN SLIGHTLY LOWER RAINFALL AMOUNTS.
STILL EXPECT ABOUT A 6 HOUR PERIOD OF WIDESPREAD SHOWERS MOVING WEST
TO EAST ACROSS SNE DURING THE EVENING...THEN GRADUALLY TAPERING OFF
AFT MIDNIGHT. MARGINAL ELEVATED INSTABILITY COULD BRING AN ISOLATED
TSTM. RAINFALL WILL AVERAGE AROUND A HALF INCH WITH LOCALIZED
AMOUNTS UP TO AN INCH. WITH THE LOW LEVEL JET SLIGHTLY WEAKER AND
FURTHER S...EXPECT THE MAGNITUDE OF THE WINDS IN THE COASTAL PLAIN
TO ALSO BE WEAKER WITH POTENTIAL FOR A FEW GUSTS TO 30-35 MPH. TEMPS
IN THE INTERIOR WILL START OUT IN THE 40S THEN RISE INTO THE 50S
DURING THE NIGHT. TEMPS IN THE COASTAL PLAIN MAY APPROACH 60
DEGREES.

TUESDAY...
RATHER POTENT MID LEVEL LOW AND SHORTWAVE TRACKS ACROSS N NEW ENG.
BEST CHC OF SHOWERS WILL BE TO THE N BUT CANT RULE OUT A FEW SHOWERS
ACROSS N MA CLOSEST TO THE MID LEVEL LOW AND COLD POOL. EXPECT LOTS
OF STRATO CU ACROSS N ZONES WITH MORE SUNSHINE FURTHER S TOWARD THE
S COAST. WINDS WILL BECOME RATHER GUSTY DURING THE DAY AS TRIPLE
POINT LOW IN THE GULF OF MAINE DEVELOPS INTO A FAIRLY INTENSE STORM
AS IT MOVES TO THE NE WITH STRONG PRES GRADIENT DEVELOPING.
POTENTIAL FOR W/NW GUSTS TO 35 MPH BUT IT WILL BE UNSEASONABLY MILD
WITH TEMPS WELL INTO THE 50S TO AROUND 60 DEGREES IN THE COASTAL
PLAIN.

WEDNESDAY...
HIGH PRES BUILDS INTO NEW ENG WITH SUNSHINE AND DIMINISHING WINDS.
IT WILL BE MUCH COOLER WITH NE FLOW DEVELOPING WITH TEMPS MOSTLY IN
THE MID/UPPER 40S.

THURSDAY INTO SATURDAY...
LONGWAVE TROF APPROACHES FROM THE WEST WITH A FRONTAL WAVE LIKELY
DEVELOPING VICINITY OF MID ATLC COAST DURING THU AND TRACKING NEAR
OR SE OF NEW ENG THU NIGHT. THERE ARE MODEL DIFFERENCES IN THE TRACK
OF THE LOW BUT IT IS LIKELY TO BRING A PERIOD OF RAIN THU INTO THU
NIGHT WHICH MAY LINGER INTO THE FIRST PART OF FRI BUT THIS IS
UNCERTAIN. GENERAL TREND SHOULD BE FOR IMPROVING CONDITIONS ON FRI.
GFS APPEARS TO BE TOO PROGRESSIVE AND LIKELY TOO FAST TO BRING
COLDER AIR INTO SNE. COLDER AIR WILL LIKELY BE DELAYED UNTIL FRI
NIGHT AND SAT. BLUSTERY AND COLDER WEATHER LIKELY SAT WITH GUSTY
W/NW WINDS. TEMPS WILL BE CLOSE TO NORMAL FOR MID DECEMBER WITH
READINGS MID 30S TO LOWER 40S WHICH WILL FEEL A LOT COLDER GIVEN
GUSTY WINDS AND HOW MILD IT HAS BEEN RECENTLY.
