AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
509 PM EDT THU MAY 28 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT MAY BRING A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TO THE
REGION THIS AFTERNOON. A WIDESPREAD...SOAKING RAINFALL IS NOT
EXPECTED. ON FRIDAY...HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING DRY CONDITIONS.
ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL SLOWLY MOVE ACROSS THE REGION THIS
WEEKEND...BRINGING A GREATER CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND SOME SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS. THIS FRONT MAY LINGER NEAR OUR AREA INTO THE
BEGINNING OF THE NEXT WEEK...WITH HIGH PRESSURE RETURNING BY
MIDWEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
*** SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH IN PLACE THROUGH THIS EVENING ***

WEAKENING AND SLOWING COLD FRONT IS WITHIN 40 MILES OF THE MA/CT
BORDER AND CONTINUING E SHIFT. HAVE SEEN PLENTY OF CLEARING
THROUGH THE LATE MORNING AND EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS WHICH HAVE
ALLOWED MIX LAYER CAPES TO EXCEED 1000J/KG. 0-6KM SHEAR STILL
HOLDING ACROSS MUCH OF CT/MA/NRN RI AT OR AROUND 45 KT WITH SOME
LOW LVL HELICITY ESPECIALLY CONCENTRATED IN THE CT VALLEY...WHERE
WINDS BACK TO THE S. ALREADY BEGINNING TO SEE CONVECTION FIRING
AROUND 18Z. THE CORRIDOR OF LEAST STABILITY LAY FROM CENTRAL
CT...THROUGH TO NE MA...SO SUSPECT AS THE FRONT CONTINUES TO MOVE
THROUGH THIS REGION CONTINUED FIRING OF MULTI-CELL CLUSTERS UNTIL
IT REACHES THE SE AREAS...WHERE INSTABILITY/FORCING ARE BOTH
LACKING. MAIN ISSUES WILL CONTINUE TO BE STRONG WINDS WITH
LOCALIZED BOWING SEGMENTS ENHANCED BY INVERTED-V SOUNDINGS. SOME
HAIL CAPE STILL AVAILABLE...AROUND 200-300 J/KG. SEVERE WATCH
REMAINS IN PLACE THROUGH 23Z.

MESO-SCALE GUIDANCE SHOWS THE FRONT SLOWING TO A NEAR STALL AROUND
THE S COAST BETWEEN 06Z AND 12Z FRI. WITH THE LOSS OF DIURNAL
HEATING AND PLENTY OF DRY AIR MOVING ALOFT PER WV
IMAGERY...SUSPECT ANY REMNANT CONVECTION WILL COME TO AN END
MAINLY 03Z-06Z. ONLY ISSUE IS COASTAL WATERS...WHICH MAY HOLD ON
TO A LITTLE BIT MORE MID LVL INSTABILITY ABOVE THE MARINE LAYER.
GIVEN THE LATE TIMING...COULD ALSO BE A LITTLE BIT OF TRAPPED
MOISTURE BENEATH THE BUILDING SUBSIDENCE INVERSION/DRYING ALOFT.
THIS MAY LEAD TO SOME PATCHY GROUND FOG PARTICULARLY AREAS WHERE
SIG RAINFALL FELL IN STORMS AND/OR NEAR THE SOUTH COAST OVERNIGHT.
HAVE PATCHY FOG IN THE FORECAST. DWPTS WILL BE DROPPING...BUT
LEFTOVER CONVECTIVE DEBRIS CLOUDS AND THE SLOW MOVEMENT OF THE
FRONT WILL PREVENT TEMPS FROM COMPLETELY FALLING OFF THE TABLE.
EXPECT MINS MAINLY IN THE MID 50S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
TOMORROW...
WEAK RIDGE OF HIGH PRES WILL GRADUALLY CREST OVER THE REGION
THROUGH THE DAYLIGHT HOURS. WINDS WILL BE LIGHT...BUT GRADUALLY
SHIFTING BACK TO THE S...FROM THE NW THROUGH THE DAY. GIVEN THE
LIGHT WINDS...EXPECT LOCAL SEA BREEZES TO LIMIT DIURNAL TEMP
TRENDS NEAR THE COASTLINES. INLAND HOWEVER...WITH SOME
DOWNSLOPING...CT VALLEY LOCATIONS WILL MAKE A RUN AT THE MID 80S.
MAINLY UPPER 70S ELSEWHERE AWAY FROM THE COAST.

TOMORROW NIGHT...
ALTHOUGH SFC HIGH PRES CENTER WILL BE SHIFTING TO WELL S OF NOVA
SCOTIA...UPPER LVL RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO BUILD THANKS TO STEADY
WARM ADVECTION UPSTREAM. THIS WILL KEEP ANY ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED
WITH ANOTHER SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT...WELL TO THE W. EXPECT ONLY
INCREASING HIGH CLOUDS ACROSS THE W OVERNIGHT. THE ONLY CAVEAT MAY
BE NEAR S COASTAL REGIONS...WHERE SLY FLOW AND SLIGHT INCREASE IN
DWPTS COULD PROMOTE DEVELOPMENT OF SOME LOCALIZED MARINE FOG AND
STRATUS ONCE AGAIN. THIS RISE IN DWPTS WILL ALSO KEEP MINS UP A
BIT...MAINLY DIPPING INTO THE UPPER 50S IN THE COOLEST SPOTS.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...

OVERVIEW AND MODEL PREFERENCES...

OVERALL UPPER LEVEL RIDGING ALONG EASTERN SEABOARD APPEARS TO
BREAK DOWN SATURDAY...THEN TROUGH OUT OF CENTRAL CANADA BEGINS TO
SHIFT E LATE THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. ASSOCIATED COLD
FRONT WILL BE SLOW TO CLEAR THE REGION AS IT RUNS PARALLEL TO THE
UPPER FLOW. TIMING ISSUES COME IN PLAY FROM MONDAY ONWARD...
DEPENDING UPON HOW FAR S THE FRONT FINALLY SETTLES WHILE HIGH
PRES BUILDS OUT OF SOUTHERN ONTARIO AND THE GREAT LAKES EASTWARD.

LEANED TOWARD THE AVAILABLE GUIDANCE EARLY IN THIS PERIOD THEN
TRANSITIONED OVER THE GEFS AND ECENS GUIDANCE WHICH SHOWED A BIT
BETTER CONTINUITY.

DETAILS...

SATURDAY...HIGH PRES OFF THE EASTERN SEABOARD PUSHES FURTHER
OFFSHORE DURING THIS TIMEFRAME...WITH GOOD SW WIND FLOW AND
INCREASING HUMIDITY MOVING NE INTO THE REGION. MODELS TENDING TO
SLOW THE PROGRESS OF THE APPROACHING FRONT OUT OF WESTERN QUEBEC
AS THE UPPER RIDGE SLOWLY BREAKS DOWN AND SHIFTS E. HAVE MENTION
OF CHANCE POPS MOVING INTO WESTERN AREAS DURING SAT AFTERNOON...
THEN SHOULD PUSH SLOWLY SE SAT NIGHT.

GOOD INSTABILITY WITH THIS FRONT AS K INDICES INCREASE TO THE
LOWER-MID 30S. HAVE MENTIONED CHANCE POPS...BUT MENTIONED ONLY
SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS SAT NIGHT. NOTING INCREASING PWATS
ALONG AND AHEAD OF THIS FRONT AS WELL...UP TO 1.7 INCHES DURING
SAT NIGHT SO COULD SEE SOME LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS WITH ANY
ACTIVITY. WILL SEE HIGH TEMPS REACH AROUND 80 INLAND...BUT ONLY IN
THE UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S ALONG THE IMMEDIATE S COAST. MAY SEE
SW WINDS GUSTING UP TO AROUND 25-30 MPH ACROSS RI/SE MA SAT
AFTERNOON/NIGHT.

SUNDAY...LOOKS LIKE BEST SHOT OF MOISTURE MOVES ACROSS THE
REGION SUN/SUN NIGHT. CARRYING CAT POPS NEAR/ALONG THE SLOWLY
MOVING FRONT...AS WELL AS SOME SCT THUNDERSTORMS. PWATS INCREASE
TO 1.7 TO 1.8 INCHES...SO COULD ALSO SEE SOME HEAVY DOWNPOURS.
AT THIS POINT...THINK THE FRONT WILL PUSH NEAR OR S OF THE MASS
PIKE AROUND SUN NIGHT...BUT WILL TEND TO SLOW DOWN ACROSS SOUTHERN
AREAS OVERNIGHT. THIS WILL LOWER THE CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS AS
MORE STABLE AIR MOVES INTO N MA SUN NIGHT...BUT STILL COULD SEE
SPOTTY CONVECTION ACROSS N CT/RI/SE MA. HAVE KEPT LIKELY POPS
GOING THROUGH AROUND 06Z...THEN SLOWLY LOWER ACROSS CENTRAL AND
NORTHERN AREAS AFTER THAT. PRECIP LOOKS TO TAPER OFF ACROSS THE
ROUTE 2 AREA BY AROUND SUNRISE MON...BUT TIMING IS STILL IN
QUESTION.

MONDAY...A LOT OF UNCERTAINTY CONTINUES AS MOVING THE FRONT ACROSS
THE REGION...WITH TIMING DIFFERENCES AMONGST THE MODEL SUITE.
LOOKS LIKE THE CHANCE FOR PRECIP LINGERS THROUGH MON AND EVEN INTO
MON NIGHT...WITH THE BEST CHANCE ACROSS N CT/RI/SE MA. WINDS DO
START TO SHIFT AROUND TO N-NE ACROSS CENTRAL AND N MA SO THIS WILL
CUT BACK ON THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY AS COOLER AIR MOVES IN. FOR
NOW...TEND TO TAPER OFF PRECIP BY MON NIGHT ACROSS MOST
AREAS...BUT DO LINGER IT ALONG THE S COAST THROUGH AT LEAST
MIDNIGHT MON NIGHT. IT WILL BE MUCH COOLER WITH HIGHS ONLY IN THE
60S...AND MAY NOT EVEN BREAK 60 ALONG THE E COAST WITH ONSHORE
WINDS.

TUESDAY-WEDNESDAY...PRECIP SHOULD FINALLY PUSH OFF THE S COAST BY
AROUND MIDDAY TUE AT THE LATEST. NE WINDS PICK UP AS HIGH PRES
CROSSES NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND DURING THIS TIMEFRAME. HAVE CARRIED A
DRY AND SEASONABLE FORECAST ON WEDNESDAY.

DISSIPATE MAINLY ACROSS SE MA TOWARD 00Z THIS EVENING. BRIEF
IFR/MVFR CONDITIONS POSSIBLE WITHIN THE STORMS.
