AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
1123 AM EDT WED APR 6 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE MOVES EAST OF OUR REGION THIS AFTERNOON...WHICH
WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO MODERATE. ABUNDANT RAINFALL IS
EXPECTED THURSDAY AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT. UPPER LEVEL
LOW PRESSURE WILL REMAIN NEAR NEW ENGLAND THROUGH THIS WEEKEND...
KEEPING CONDITIONS UNSETTLED AND COOL. WILL HAVE TO WATCH A
DEVELOPING COASTAL STORM SATURDAY/SUNDAY. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN
BRIEFLY MONDAY...BUT ANOTHER SYSTEM LOOKS TO MOVE IN ON TUESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED ALONG THE EASTERN USA COAST IS PROVIDING
FAIR WEATHER. AFTER THE CHILLY START...MOST TEMPERATURES ARE
RESPONDING TO FILTERED SUNSHINE AND WARMING ABOVE FREEZING.

EXPECT INCREASING SOUTH-SOUTHWEST FLOW THIS AFTERNOON AS THE HIGH
PRESSURE MOVES OFFSHORE. SURFACE MAPS SHOW A TIGHTENING PRESSURE
GRADIENT OVER WESTERN NY/PA SIGNALING INCREASING WINDS. EXPECT
DEVELOPING WARM ADVECTION THIS AFTERNOON WHICH SHOULD CONTINUE
INTO TONIGHT. THIS WILL ALSO HELP TEMPERATURES TO CLIMB ESPECIALLY
IN CLOUDIER SECTIONS OF WESTERN MASS.

TEMPS ALOFT SUPPORT MAX SFC TEMPS AROUND 40. SURFACE TEMPS SUGGEST
MAX TEMPS THIS AFTERNOON 40-45. ALL OF THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH THE
EXISTING MAX TEMP FORECAST. WE WILL MAINTAIN THIS FOR THE UPDATE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/...
TONIGHT...

LOW PRESSURE ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES WILL LIFT NORTHEAST INTO
EASTERN CANADA. THE RESULT WILL BE AN INCREASING LOW LEVEL JET ON
THE ORDER OF 50 TO 60 KNOTS. THE WARM ADVECTION PATTERN WILL ALLOW
SCATTERED SHOWERS TO DEVELOP...PARTICULARLY TOWARD DAYBREAK
THURSDAY. LOW RISK FOR A BRIEF PERIOD OF LIGHT SNOW/SLEET ACROSS
THE INTERIOR AT THE START. EVEN IF THIS OCCURS WILL HAVE LITTLE
IMPACT. TEMPERATURES MAY DROP A FEW DEGREES EARLY THIS EVENING...
BUT SHOULD RISE AFTER MIDNIGHT.

THURSDAY...

A POTENT LOW PRESSURE MOVES THROUGH THE SAINT LAWRENCE VALLEY
THURSDAY. HOWEVER...06/00Z GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO SUGGEST SECONDARY
CYCLOGENESIS CLOSER TO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND DURING THE DAY. WITH
GOOD SYNOPTIC DYNAMICS IN PLACE...WE SHOULD SEE ABUNDANT
RAINFALL...ESPECIALLY DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS.

LATEST GUIDANCE STILL HINTING AT POSSIBLE ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS.
WHILE THERE IS SOME ELEVATED INSTABILITY...IT IS NOT VERY STRONG.
STRONG LOW LEVEL JET MAY SHEAR OUT ANY CONVECTION UNLESS THE
INSTABILITY INTENSIFIES. WITH THE CONSISTENT SIGNAL...DECIDED TO
INCLUDE A MENTION OF ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS.

PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES REMAIN AROUND AN INCH. PLENTY OF
CONVERGENCE FROM A STRONG LOW LEVEL JET TO BOOT. EXPECTING MOST
LOCATIONS IN SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND TO SEE 0.75-1.00 INCHES OF RAIN
DURING THE DAY THURSDAY. STORM TOTAL AMOUNTS SHOULD BE HIGHER THAN
THAT. THE COMBINATION OF THAT AMOUNT OF RAIN...ALONG WITH THE
MELTING SNOW...COULD LEAD TO LOCALIZED URBAN AND POOR DRAINAGE
FLOODING.

ALSO EXPECTING GUSTY SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WINDS AHEAD OF AN
APPROACHING FRONT THU AFTERNOON/EVENING. HEAVY RAINFALL MAY DRAG
SOME OF THE STRONGER WINDS DOWN TO THE GROUND...MAINLY ACROSS
CENTRAL AND EASTERN AREAS.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
HIGHLIGHTS...

* WET WEATHER CONTINUES INTO FRIDAY WITH BELOW AVG TEMPS
* POTENTIAL COASTAL LOW SAT/SUN COULD BRING MORE APRIL SNOW TO SNE
* WELL BELOW AVERAGE TEMPS FOR THE WEEKEND
* A BREAK IN THE ACTION ON MON/TUESDAY WITH MODERATING TEMPS

OVERVIEW...

BOTH 00Z DETERMINISTIC AND ENSEMBLES INDICATE AN ACTIVE WEATHER
PATTERN CONTINUING INTO THE WEEKEND WITH A BRIEF BREAK EARLY NEXT
WEEK. ENSEMBLE GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO SIGNAL THE 500 MB HEIGHTS WILL
BE 2 TO 3 SD BELOW NORMAL FOR THE PERIOD...LIMITING ANY
SPRING/SUMMER LIKE WEATHER AND TEMPS FOR NEW ENGLAND. MODELS ARE
BECOMING MORE PERSISTENT IN DEVELOPING STRONG BLOCKING. FIRST IS THE
ERN PACIFIC WITH A STOUT RIDGE AND SECOND...A STRONG OMEGA BLOCK
SETTING UP ACROSS THE ATLANTIC WITH VERY IMPRESSIVE RIDGE NOSING
POLEWARD INTO GREENLAND BY THE WEEKEND. THIS WILL KEEP NEW ENGLAND
UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF TROUGHING AND SEVERAL CLOSED LOWS ROTATING
AROUND THEMSELVES INTO THE WEEKEND. HOWEVER BY SUNDAY...UPPER LEVEL
HEIGHTS WILL BEGIN TO RISE AS A CUT OFF LOW FORMS IN THE SOUTHWEST.
THIS APPEARS TO BE SHORT LIVED AS ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL TROUGH FORMS
OVER THE NORTHEAST BY TUES/WED. OVERALL ANTICIPATE A PERIOD OF
ACTIVE WEATHER AND NEAR OR BELOW SEASONABLE TEMPS THROUGH THE
WEEKEND. THEN A BRIEF BREAK AND MODERATING TEMPS BY SUNDAY/MONDAY.

DAILIES...

THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL BE OVER THE REGION BY THURSDAY NIGHT AS
SURFACE LOW CONTINUES ITS NORTHWARD TREND TOWARDS SOUTHERN CANADA.
BULK OF THE HEAVY PRECIP SHOULD BE PUSHING OFFSHORE...HOWEVER WITH
SOME ELEVATED INSTABILITY STILL HAVE A SLIGHT CHC FOR A RUMBLE OF
THUNDER THURSDAY NIGHT. COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP THROUGH DURING THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS. HOWEVER COULD SEE LINGERING PRECIP ON THE WRAP
AROUND OF THE LOW AS ANOTHER SHORTWAVE MOVES THROUGH THE FLOW.

SHOWERY WEATHER WILL CONTINUE INTO FRIDAY. UPPER LEVEL LOW AND ITS
ASSOCIATED SHORTWAVE WILL PUSH TOWARDS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND FRIDAY
INTO SATURDAY. WHILE ANTICIPATE FRIDAY TO BE ON THE DRY...CANNOT
RULE OUT SHOWERY WEATHER THANKS TO COLD CORE LOW ALOFT COMBINED WITH
STEEP LAPSE RATES. INSERTED A CHC OF POPS FOR THIS PERIOD WITH
HIGHEST CONFIDENCE ACROSS THE INTERIOR.

SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

AS ANOTHER SHORTWAVE PUSHES CLOSER ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL
DEVELOP OFF THE MID-ATLANTIC COAST AND PAST EAST NEAR SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND AS IT HEADS TOWARDS THE MARITIME. THIS IS SYSTEM IS ONE TO
WATCH AS IT COLD BRING ANOTHER SHOT OF APRIL SNOW TO SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND. TRENDED THE FORECAST CLOSER TO THE EC AS IT IS SUPPORTED BY
THE SEVERAL MEMBERS OF THE GEFS AND UKMET. THE GFS SEEMS TO BE THE
LEAST ROBUST AND TO FAR OUT TO SEA. REGARDLESS...IF THIS LOW DOES
PASS FARTHER TO THE EAST WE STILL COULD GET INFLUENCED BY THE
INVERTED TROUGH. GUIDANCE WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE THE SURFACE LOW
AROUND OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL RUNS SO WILL STAY CLOSE TO THE
ENSEMBLES OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAY. RIGHT NOW THIS SYSTEM APPEARS
TO MOVE THROUGH SATURDAY INTO EARLY SATURDAY MORNING. IT MAY START
OFF AS RAIN...BUT ON THE BACKSIDE COLD AIR WILL BE USHERING IN
RESULTING IN A CHANGE OVER TO SNOW BY SAT PM INTO EARLY SUNDAY AM.
STILL A LOT OF UNCERTAINTY WITH THIS SYSTEM AS THE EXACT
STRENGTH...LOCATION AND TIMING OF THE LOW IS STILL IN QUESTION.
SOMETHING TO WATCH IN THE COMING DAY.

REGARDLESS...THIS SYSTEM AND ITS NORTHERLY MOVEMENT WILL RESULT IN
SOME COASTAL FLOODING AS TIDES ARE ASTRONOMICALLY HIGH. TEMPERATURES
THROUGH THIS PERIOD WILL BE BELOW AVERAGE.

SUNDAY INTO TUESDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

DEEP TROUGH WILL REMAIN OVER THE REGION ON SUNDAY AND BEGIN TO LIFT
BY MONDAY. HIGH PRESSURE TO THE SOUTH TRIES TO BUILD ON SUNDAY AS A
LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM DEVELOPS ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES. APPEARS ANOTHER
SHORTWAVE WILL MOVING THROUGH THE FLOW PUSHING THE LOW INTO NORTHERN
NEW ENGLAND. THIS WILL BRING A WARM FRONT THROUGH LATE MONDAY
RESULTING IN SNE GETTING WARM SECTORED FOR TUESDAY. A COLD FRONT
WILL PASS THROUGH LATE TUESDAY PUSHING THE REGION BACK TO NEAR OR
BELOW AVERAGE TEMPS. ONCE AGAIN HAVE A LOW CONFIDENCE ON THE
FEATURES OF THIS SYSTEM.

&&

.AVIATION /16Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

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

SHORT TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...

THIS AFTERNOON...HIGH CONFIDENCE. VFR WITH JUST A LOW RISK FOR
SOME MVFR CIGS TOWARD EVENING ACROSS NORTHWEST MA.
OTHERWISE...SOUTHWEST WIND GUSTS AROUND 25 KNOTS SHOULD DEVELOP IN
THE MID TO LATE AFTERNOON.

TONIGHT...MODERATE CONFIDENCE. MVFR-IFR CONDITIONS DEVELOP WITH
THE LOWER CONDITIONS MOST LIKELY ACROSS THE INTERIOR. THERE IS A
LOW RISK FOR A BRIEF PERIOD OF LIGHT SLEET/SNOW ACROSS NORTHWEST
MA THIS EVENING. OTHERWISE...POTENTIAL FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS
INCREASES AS THE NIGHT PROGRESSES. EXPECT SOME LLWS AS WELL WITH
STRENGTHENING LOW LEVEL JET.

THURSDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE. WILL LIKELY SEE MVFR-IFR
CONDITIONS IN RAIN AND FOG. PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN POSSIBLE IN THE
AFTERNOON/EVENING. S WINDS GUSTING TO 20-30 KT...MAINLY ALONG THE
COASTS.

KBOS TERMINAL...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAF.

KBDL TERMINAL...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAF.

OUTLOOK /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...

THURSDAY NIGHT...MODERATE CONFIDENCE. MVFR/IFR CIGS CONTINUE THROUGH
THE NIGHT WITHIN -SHRA AND FOG. IMPROVEMENT NEAR DAY BREAK.

FRIDAY...HIGH CONFIDENCE. MAINLY VFR WITH MVFR CIGS POSSIBLE IN -SHRA
ACROSS THE INTERIOR. GUSTY WESTERLY WINDS NEAR 20-30 KTS.

SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE. VFR CONDITIONS WILL LEAD
TO MVFR/IFR CIGS WITH HIGHEST CONFIDENCE ACROSS EASTERN TERMINALS
DUE TO -RA. VSBYS RESTRICTIONS POSSIBLE BY SAT NIGH WHEN RA
TRANSITIONS TO -SN. IMPROVING CONDITIONS BY LATE SUNDAY MORNING INTO
THE AFTERNOON.

&&

.MARINE...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

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

SHORT TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...

1120 AM UPDATE...AFTER REVIEWING DATA WE HAVE DECIDED TO EXPAND
THE GALE WATCH INTO THE REMAINING MARINE ZONES. ENOUGH POTENTIAL
FOR 35-40 KNOT WINDS TO WARRENT THE FIRST-STAGE WATCH HEADLINE.
REMAINDER OF FORECAST REMAINS THE SAME.

THIS AFTERNOON INTO TOMORROW...MODERATE CONFIDENCE. DEVELOPING
LOW LEVEL JET AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT WILL RESULT IN
SOUTHERLY WIND GUSTS OF 25 TO 30 KNOTS THIS AFTERNOON AND
CONTINUING INTO TONIGHT. WINDS MAY BRIEFLY TOUCH GALE FORCE...BUT
CONFIDENCE IN THAT IS NOT HIGH. AFTER COORDINATION WITH
SURROUNDING OFFICES...HAVE POSTED A GALE WATCH FOR MOST OF THE
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND WATERS. TIMING OF THE WATCH WILL VARY...BUT
MOST LIKELY TO SEE THE STRONGER WINDS DURING THE AFTERNOON.
CERTAINLY WILL NEED TO ISSUE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY HEADLINES AT A
MINIMUM.

OUTLOOK /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...

THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY...WINDS AND SEAS WILL SLOWLY DIMINISH
AS LOW PRESSURE MOVES AWAY FROM THE WATERS AND WINDS SHIFTS TO
THE WEST. LOW PROB FOR GALES ON FRIDAY DUE TO TIGHT PRESSURE
GRADIENT. OTHERWISE SCA WILL BE NEEDED.

SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY...ANOTHER WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE ACROSS
THE EASTERN WATERS SATURDAY INTO SATURDAY NIGHT. INCREASED SEAS A
FEW FEET AS WNA GUIDANCE IS UNDERDONE. VSBYS MAY BE RESTRICTED
FROM -RA OR -SN. SCA WILL BE NEEDED WITH A LOW PROB OF GALES BY
SAT NIGHT/SUN.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT...

HIGH ASTRO TIDES AND A STRONG SOUTHERLY LOW LEVEL JET WILL LIKELY
RESULT IN A 1 TO 2 FOOT STORM SURGE ALONG THE SOUTH COAST. TIMING
REMAINS UNCERTAIN...BUT WILL HAVE TO WATCH BOTH THE MORNING AND
EVENING HIGH TIDES FOR A DECENT SHOT AT A ROUND OR TWO OF MINOR
COASTAL FLOODING. HOWEVER...WINDS DO NOT APPEAR TO BE STRONG
ENOUGH FOR A SIGNIFICANT COASTAL FLOOD EVENT.

THIS WEEKEND...

WE WILL HAVE TO WATCH THE TRACK AND STRENGTH OF A DEVELOPING
OCEAN STORM SAT INTO SUN. BOSTON HAS A VERY HIGH ASTRO TIDE OF
12.2 FEET AROUND 2 AM SUNDAY MORNING...SO ANY EASTERLY COMPONET OF
THE WIND WILL RESULT IN MINOR COASTAL FLOODING. HOWEVER...A
STRONGER STORM CLOSER TO THE COAST IS STILL A POSSIBILITY AND THAT
WOULD BRING A MORE SIGNIFICANT COASTAL FLOOD THREAT. WILL HAVE TO
WATCH THIS CLOSELY.
