AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BURLINGTON VT
745 PM EDT SUN JUL 19 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A WARM AND UNSTABLE AIR MASS WILL CONTINUE TO BE IN PLACE TONIGHT
PRODUCING SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. SOME
THUNDERSTORMS MAY TURN SEVERE WITH DAMAGING WINDS...LARGE HAIL
AND HEAVY RAINFALL THIS EVENING. A COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH
OVERNIGHT BRINGING AN END TO STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS.
QUIETER WEATHER EXPECTED ON MONDAY WITH A NOTICEABLE DECREASE IN
HUMIDITY LEVELS. ANOTHER DISTURBANCE MOVES THROUGH THE NORTH
COUNTRY ON TUESDAY. COOLER TEMPERATURES AND DAYTIME SHOWER
CHANCES THEN CONTINUE THROUGH THE REST OF THE WORKWEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 8 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
AS OF 727 PM EDT SUNDAY...IT'S BEEN AN INTERESTING AFTERNOON TO
THIS POINT AS WE'VE HAD A COUPLE OF SEVERE- WARNED THUNDERSTORMS
THUS FAR, BUT A GREATER NUMBER OF SEVERE STORMS HAVE OCCURRED
EITHER SOUTH, EAST, OR NORTH OF THE NORTH COUNTRY. AIR MASS IS
STILL UNSTABLE WITH SPC MESOANALYSIS DEPICTING AROUND 2000 J/KG OF
CAPE, THOUGH A BIT MORE IN THE WAY OF CONVECTIVE INHIBITION AS
WELL, SOME OF WHICH MIGHT BE FROM THE LARGE CANOPY OF ANVIL CIRRUS
BEING BLOWN DOWNWIND FROM INCREASING MID-TO- UPPER LEVEL WESTERLY
WINDS. STILL THINK SEVERE THREAT WILL CONTINUE AND THE SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM WATCH REMAINS VALID. THE HRRR, WHICH HAS DONE THE
BEST IN ITS RADAR DEPICTION TODAY, SUGGESTS THAT THE GREATEST
NEAR-TERM CONVECTIVE THREAT THRU SUNSET WILL EXIST ACROSS SOUTHERN
VERMONT AND ALONG A LINE FROM MONTPELIER NORTH. WE'LL ALSO BE
MONITORING ONGOING CONVECTION APPROACHING THE ST. LAWRENCE VALLEY
FOR LATER IN THE EVENING. THREAT OF STRONG TO DAMAGING WINDS AND
HEAVY RAINFALL WILL CONTINUE TO EXIST, AND WE'LL ALSO HAVE TO
WATCH FOR LOCALIZED FLOODING PARTICULARLY IN PARTS OF THE
NORTHEAST KINGDOM INTO NORTH-CENTRAL VERMONT.

IT WILL STILL BE QUITE MUGGY UNTIL THE COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH
THE AREA, WHICH ISN'T LIKELY UNTIL AFTER MIDNIGHT. I'VE SHOWN LOWS
IN THE 60S, BUT HUMIDITY LEVELS WILL STEADILY DROP AFTER MIDNIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /8 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 426 PM EDT SUNDAY...THE COLD FRONT MAY STILL BE CLEARING
FAR EASTERN VERMONT EARLY MONDAY MORNING. HOWEVER, MUCH QUIETER
WEATHER IS STILL ANTICIPATED FOR MONDAY AS SHORTWAVE RIDGING
BUILDS ACROSS THE NORTH COUNTRY. THOUGH 850 MB TEMPS WILL STILL BE
AROUND 14 TO 16C WITH MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES SUPPORTING HIGHS IN THE
80S, IT WILL BE NOTICEABLY LESS HUMID WITH DEWPOINTS BEING SOME 10
DEGREES LOWER THAN TODAY. COULD SEE THERE BEING AREAS OF FOG IN
THE FAVORED RIVER VALLEYS INTO TUESDAY EVENING WITH MORE
SEASONABLE LOWS IN THE 50S TO MID 60S.

NEXT SYSTEM APPROACHES FROM THE WEST ON TUESDAY AS A COLD FRONT
MOVES THROUGH. THE COLD FRONT ITSELF WILL BE MOVING INTO THE
AFTERNOON AND THERE IS SUFFICIENT ENOUGH DEEP-LAYER SHEAR TO
SUPPORT SUSTAINED THUNDERSTORMS. HOWEVER, INSTABILITY REMAINS IN
QUESTION. FORECAST NAM SOUNDINGS GENERATE THE MOST - ON THE ORDER
OF 1500 J/KG CAPE - BUT DEWPOINTS IN THE UPPER 60S WOULD BE
REQUIRED TO REALIZE THIS LEVEL OF CAPE WHICH DON'T SEEM REALISTIC.
ON THE OTHER HAND, THE GFS FORECAST SOUNDINGS PRODUCE CAPE VALUES
LESS THAN 500 J/KG. I THINK THE TRUTH MAY BE SOMEWHERE IN THE
MIDDLE OF THESE TWO SOLUTIONS, SO I'VE GONE WITH LIKELY POPS FOR
SHOWERS BUT CHANCE THUNDER. IT'S SOMETHING THAT WILL REQUIRE
MONITORING AS WE GO FORWARD. COLD FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE REGION
LATER TUESDAY/TUESDAY NIGHT WITH A DECREASE IN POPS INTO TUESDAY
NIGHT.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
AS OF 106 PM EDT SUNDAY...WITH PROSPECTS FOR STRONG CONVECTION
LATER TODAY, I'VE WORKED UP AN EXTENDED PORTION OF THE FORECAST
EARLY, LARGELY USING BLENDED GUIDANCE AND INCORPORATING 12Z/19TH
GFS. IN GENERAL, THERE REALLY ISN'T MUCH CHANGE COMPARED TO THE
PRIOR FORECAST. THE NORTH COUNTRY WILL BE UNDER INFLUENCE OF
CYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT AND THE EFFECTS OF 1000-500MB THICKNESS
TROUGHING WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. IN THIS LARGE- SCALE REGIME,
EXPECT THERE TO BE PERIODS OF PARTLY TO MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES AND
MAINLY DIURNAL/INSTABILITY SHOWERS WITH GREATER AREAL COVERAGE
NEAR THE MOUNTAINS. EXPECT TEMERATURES TO RUN BELOW LATE-JULY
NORMALS GIVEN COVERAGE OF DIURNAL CLOUDS AND COLDER THEMRAL
PROFILES. IT'S NOT UNTIL LATER SATURDAY THAT THE PATTERN BEGINS TO
CHANGE TO A RETURN TO WARMER WEATHER.

.AVIATION /00Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
THROUGH 00Z TUESDAY...AT 00Z MONDAY SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE ACROSS VT TAF SITES AND SOMEWHAT QUIET IN
