Area forecast discussion, Jul 19, 6:55 PM EDT, 35 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAY ME
655 PM EDT SUN JUL 19 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL PUSH OFFSHORE TONIGHT WITH SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS AHEAD OF IT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN FROM THE
WEST ON MONDAY. ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH FROM THE WEST
MONDAY NIGHT AND WILL CROSS THE AREA ON TUESDAY WITH ANOTHER ROUND
OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN FROM THE
WEST TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY. ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL DROP
SOUTH FROM CANADA ON THURSDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN FROM
THE WEST FRIDAY AND WILL SHIFT OFFSHORE ON SATURDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /TONIGHT/...
7PM UPDATE...
HAVE MADE ANOTHER UPDATE TO ADJUST HOURLY PRECIPITATION CHANCES.
FIRST ROUND OF ACTIVITY ALONG THE WARM FRONT IS GENERALLY WINDING
DOWN AS IT GETS FURTHER REMOVED FROM THE CORE OF THE JUICY AIR.
MEANWHILE... CONVECTION WHICH ORIGINATED NEAR ALBANY IS MOVING
NORTHEAST TOWARD SOUTHER NEW HAMPSHIRE... AN AREA STILL SIZZLING
IN UPPER 80S TEMPERATURES WITH LOW 70S DEWPOINTS. THE ACTIVITY
MOVING INTO NEW HAMPSHIRE HAS A HIGH LIKELIHOOD OF CONTINUING
THROUGH NEW HAMPSHIRE EARLY THIS EVENING BEFORE WEAKENING AND
PUSHING NORTHEAST.

515PM UPDATE...
HAVE EXPANDED SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH TO INCLUDE MORE OF WESTERN
MAINE AS THE AREA OF CONCERN IS EXPANDING A BIT. EVEN TO THE
NORTHEAST OF THE WARM FRONT... ENOUGH ELEVATED INSTABILITY EXISTS
TO GET A FEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS.

5PM UPDATE...
STORMS HAVE ORGANIZED MORE ALONG AND JUST NORTH OF THE WARM
FRONTAL BOUNDARY. A BROADER REGIONAL VIEW SHOWS STORMS ALONG THIS
LINE EXTENDING ALL THE WAY THROUGH TO THE QUEBEC AND ONTARIO
BORDER... GRADUALLY MOVING TO THE NORTHEAST. HAVE ADJUSTED THE
HOURLY PRECIPITATION CHANCES TO REFLECT THE ENHANCED CHANCES IN
THE AREA ALONG AND NORTH OF THIS BOUNDARY. ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT
HAS BEEN NOTED IN EAST CENTRAL NEW YORK AND COULD IMPACT SOUTHERN
NEW HAMPSHIRE EVENTUALLY TONIGHT. BUT FOR NOW CUMULUS FIELD HAS
BEEN SUPPRESSED IN THIS AREA DUE TO CONVECTION ON EITHER SIDE...
LEAVING THIS AREA TO ROAST IN THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY. OTHERWISE
FORECAST THINKING REMAINS THE SAME.

ORIGINAL DISCUSSION...
THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEGUN TO FORM WITHIN THE WARM AND HUMID AIR
MASS OVER THE SOUTHERN HALF OF NEW HAMPSHIRE AND FAR SOUTHWEST
MAINE. GIVEN THE HIGH INSTABILITY AND INCREASING SHEAR... SOME OF
THE STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING
WINDS. AS THE STORMS RIDE ALONG A WARM FRONTAL BOUNDARY THE LOW
LEVEL TURNING OF THE WINDS WILL ADD A THREAT FOR AN ISOLATED
TORNADO. SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED UNTIL 11 PM FOR
NEW HAMPSHIRE AND YORK COUNTY IN MAINE.

EXPECT STORMS TO EVENTUALLY FORM INTO A LARGER COMPLEX OF STORMS
AND MOVE ACROSS THE AREA OVERNIGHT. COULD SEE MUCH OF THE ACTIVITY
MOVE EAST BY MIDNIGHT. TEMPERATURES WILL BE WARM OVERNIGHT AS LOW
LEVEL HUMIDITY REMAINS HIGH. SOME LOCATIONS MAY NOT FALL BELOW 70
DEGREES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT/...
COLD FRONT WILL HAVE MOVED THROUGH THE AREA BEFORE DAYBREAK...
BRINGING ANY LINGERING SHOWERS OR STORMS TO AN END. LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE WILL BE A LITTLE SLOW IN ERODING OVER COASTAL MAINE BUT
IT WILL BE GENERALLY A DRIER DAY WITH WARM TEMPERATURES ONCE
AGAIN.

WITH DRIER AIR IN PLACE EXPECT A COOLER NIGHT MONDAY NIGHT WITH
TEMPERATURES FALLING INTO THE 50S AND 60S.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
FOR THE OUTLOOK PERIOD GENERALLY A MEAN LONG WAVE TROUGH POSITION
REMAINS ACROSS THE NORTHEAST SO A LACK OF HEAT AND HUMIDITY
SHOULD BE HIGHLIGHTED.

A SHORT WAVE CLIPPER SYSTEM WITH AN ASSOCIATED SURFACE COLD FRONT
WILL ROTATE AROUND THE BASE OF THE MEAN TROUGH IN THE EAST AND MOVE
ACROSS THE AREA TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT. THIS WILL CAUSE SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE AREA. THEN FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK
THE UPPER TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE SETTLES OVER NEW ENGLAND WITH A
CYCLONIC FLOW ALOFT AND DRY NORTHWEST FLOW IN THE LOWER LEVELS.
THIS WILL MEAN COMFORTABLE TEMPERATURES AND LOW HUMIDITIES TO
PERSIST WITH DRY CONDITIONS. DUE TO THE COOL AIR MASS ALOFT AN
ISOLATED AFTERNOON DIURNAL SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM CAN'T BE RULED
OUT...ESPECIALLY IN THE MOUNTAINS. TEMPERATURES WILL BE PLEASANTLY
COOL WITH DAYTIME HIGHS GENERALLY IN THE 70S TO AROUND 80 AND
OVERNIGHT LOWS IN THE 50S TO LOWER 60S.
&&

.AVIATION /18Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
SHORT TERM... VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED TODAY BUT SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE DEVELOPING THIS EVENING. MUCH OF THE
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL MOVE EAST OF THE AREA BY MIDNIGHT.
COULD SEE SOME FOG DEVELOPING OVERNIGHT ESPECIALLY IN AREAS WHICH
GET A GOOD SOAKING DURING THE EVENING.

LONG TERM...MVFR TO IFR POSSIBLE IN SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ON
TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY EVENING FOLLOWED BY MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS
THE REST OF THE WEEK.

&&

.MARINE...
SHORT TERM... WEAK PRESSURE GRADIENT LEADS TO LIGHT WINDS AND
FAIRLY CALM SEAS.

LONG TERM...SUB-SCA CONDITIONS ARE CURRENTLY EXPECTED TUESDAY THROUGH
THE REST OF THE WEEK.

&&

.GYX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
