AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
354 PM EDT FRI APR 8 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
WEAK COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH NEW ENGLAND THIS EVENING. LOW
PRESSURE FROM THE GREAT LAKES WILL PASS SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND
SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND EARLY NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BRING
DRY WEATHER FOR SUNDAY AND PART OF MONDAY. ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL
BRING UNSETTLED CONDITIONS ON TUESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...

THIS EVENING...LINGERING CLOUDS AND A FEW LIGHT SNOWERS FROM
RESIDUAL INSTABILITY...BUT THIS SHOULD DIMINISH.

TONIGHT...
AIRMASS DRIES OUT ENOUGH TO BRING A PERIOD OF CLEARING...MOSTLY
FOR THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. INCREASING MID AND HIGH CLOUDS FROM THE
SOUTHWEST LATE TONIGHT. UPSTREAM AIRMASS FOR EARLY MORNING WILL
COME FROM THE SOUTHERN GREAT LAKES WHERE MIN TEMPS THIS MORNING
WERE 25 TO 35. OUR MIN TEMP FORECAST WILL BE IN THIS RANGE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...

TWO SHORTWAVES TO CONSIDER. ONE IS OVER THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES
AND MOVING EAST. THE SECOND IS DROPPING SOUTH FROM THE CANADIAN
PRAIRIES AND IS NUDGING THE FIRST SHORTWAVE ALONG. AS A
RESULT...LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPS AS IT MOVES EAST ACROSS THE
APPALACHIANS AND REACHES DELAWARE BAY SATURDAY MORNING. THE STORM
THEN TRACKS EAST AND PASSES SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND.

THERE CONTINUE TO BE IMPORTANT BUT SUBTLE RUN-RO-RUN DIFFERENCES
IN THE PROJECTED TRACK OF THE LOW AS IT PASSES TO OUR SOUTH. THE
12Z GUIDANCE SUITE SHIFTS THE TRACK AND RESULTING NEW ENGLAND PCPN
A LITTLE FARTHER SOUTH. EVEN SO...THE PROJECTED TRACK ALONG 39N
LATITUDE SUGGESTS THAT A GRAZING OF SOUTH COASTAL NEW ENGLAND
REMAINS PROBABLE. THERE ALSO CONTINUES A RISK THAT SUBSEQUENT
MODEL RUNS THE NEXT 24 HOURS MAY SHIFT THIS TRACK FARTHER NORTH
BRINGING HIGHER PCPN...OR FARTHER SOUTH LEAVING EGG ON OUR FACES.

PRECIP TYPE WILL BE A CONCERN LATE SATURDAY. THE EXPECTED PCPN
STARTS WHILE TEMPS ARE WELL ABOVE FREEZING AND SHOULD FALL AS
RAIN. GIVEN ENOUGH TIME FOR THE PCPN TO COOL THE AIRMASS...AND THE
COOLING DUE TO SUNSET...WE EXPECT THE AIR TO COOL ENOUGH FOR THE
PCPN TO CHANGE TO SNOW. WITH A FEW HOURS OF EVENING SNOW IT IS
REASONABLE THAT THE COAST MAY SEE AT LEAST A COATING. AREAS OF
CAPE COD AND THE ISLANDS MAY COME CLOSEST TO THE PASSING CENTER
AND GAIN SUPPORT FOR SLIGHTLY STRONGER SNOWFALL RATES THAT WOULD
SUPPORT AN INCH OF SNOW...POSSIBLY 2 INCHES IN SPOTS.

SHORTWAVE AND SURFACE LOW ARE INTO THE GULF OF MAINE/GEORGES BANK
BY 06Z...SO ANY PCPN SHOULD BE DIMINISHING AFTER MIDNIGHT. DRIER
AIR BRINGS A CLEARING TREND TOWARD MORNING. PRESSURE RISES OF 1-2
MB/HOUR FOLLOWING THE SURFACE LOW WILL BRING INCREASING NORTH
WINDS. COLD ADVECTION WILL ALSO DRAW STRONGER WINDS TO THE
SURFACE FROM 950 MB AND 925 MB...WINDS AT THESE LEVELS ARE
FORECAST AT 25-35 KNOTS OVER LAND. EXPECT A WINDY NIGHT.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
HIGHLIGHTS...

* DRY ON SUNDAY WITH BELOW AVG TEMPS
* MODERATING TEMPS WITH RAIN CHC FOR MON AND TUES
* HIGH PRESSURE MOVES INTO THE REGION BY WED

OVERVIEW...

BOTH 00Z DETERMINISTIC AND ENSEMBLES ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT THROUGH
THE PERIOD. HOWEVER STILL SOME MESOSCALE DIFFERENCES FOR EACH MAIN
WEATHER FEATURE. OVERALL ANTICIPATE BELOW SEASONABLE TEMPS INTO NEXT
WEEK WITH ACTIVE WEATHER ON MONDAY INTO TUESDAY.

ENSEMBLES AND GUIDANCE INDICATES A BREAK IN THE ANOMALOUS TROUGH
THAT HAS BEEN OVER THE REGION THE PAST FEW DAYS WITH WEAK RIDGING
LATE SUNDAY INTO MONDAY. YET ANOTHER ANOMALOUS RIDGE IS BUILDING
INTO GREENLAND MID NEXT WEEK WHICH WILL PUT NEW ENGLAND BACK UNDER
THE INFLUENCED BY ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL TROUGH TUES-THURS. THERE IS
SOME DIFFERENCES IN THE 500 MB PATTERN BETWEEN THE GUIDANCE AND IF
THE EC IS CORRECT THEN A PATTERN CHANGE IS POSSIBLE BY LATE NEXT
WEEK. HOWEVER MODELS TEND TO ALWAYS BE TOO FAST...SO KEPT WITH
COOLER CONDITIONS THUS INTO FRIDAY OF NEXT WEEK.

DAILIES...

SUNDAY...HIGH CONFIDENCE.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE BUILDING IN BEHIND THE DEPARTING SURFACE
LOW ON SUNDAY. THIS WILL INCREASE THE PRESSURE GRADIENT AND KEEP
WINDS UP UNTIL THE HIGH CRESTS OVER SNE IN THE LATE AFTERNOON.
WIND GUSTS COULD REACH BETWEEN 20-30MPH. IT WILL ALSO BE CHILLY ON
SUNDAY WITH HIGHS IN THE 40S WITH PERHAPS A FEW SPOTS REACHING
50F. THIS IS DUE TO COLD CORE LOW OVER THE REGION.

TEMPERATURES OVERNIGHT MAY DROP QUICKLY DUE TO RADIATIONAL COOLING.
HOWEVER...WAA AHEAD OF NEXT APPROACHING SYSTEM WILL RESULT TEMPS
REMAINING STEADY OR WARMING A FEW DEGREES INTO MONDAY MORNING.

MONDAY INTO TUESDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

POTENT SHORTWAVE WILL MOVE THROUGH THE FLOW...PUSHING A LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM FROM THE GREAT LAKES INTO NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND. THIS WILL
BRING A WARM FRONT THROUGH ON MONDAY RESULTING IN SNE GETTING WARM
SECTORED FOR TUESDAY. COULD SEE SCT SHOWERS ALONG THE WARM FRONT ON
MONDAY BUT CERTAINLY NOT A WASHOUT. THERE IS A CHC FOR A FEW SNOW
SHOWERS EARLY MONDAY MORNING AHEAD OF THE WARM FRONTAL PASSAGE DUE
TO OVERRUNNING. HOWEVER THIS WILL BE BRIEF AS TEMPS WARM INTO THE
50S BY LATE MORNING.

A COLD FRONT APPROACHES NEW ENGLAND ON TUESDAY...WINDS ALOFT WILL
REMAIN OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST. THIS ALLOWS THE FRONT TO BECOME HUNG UP
ACROSS THE REGION...WITH RAIN FOR MUCH OF THE DAY. THE EURO AND GGEM
ARE THE LEAST PROGRESSIVE WITH THE FRONT...HANGING IT BACK OVER OUR
REGION FOR MUCH OF THE DAY WHILE THE GFS/NAM ARE MORE PROGRESSIVE.
DECIDED TO DO A MODEL BLEND FOR THIS TIMEFRAME.

WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION ON WEDNESDAY. HOWEVER UPPER
LEVEL TROUGH WILL TAKE HOLD KEEPING TEMPS BELOW AVG WED AND
THURSDAY. THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR A FEW DIURNAL SCT SHOWERS BUT
ANTICIPATE MOSTLY DRY WEATHER FOR THIS PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

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

SHORT TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...

TONIGHT...HIGH CONFIDENCE. VFR. LINGERING SHOWERS THROUGH THE
EVENING WITH BRING MVFR VSBYS. DIMINISHING WIND AND CLEARING
SKIES AFTER SUNSET.

SATURDAY...HIGH CONFIDENCE. VFR THROUGH THE PERIOD MOST AREAS.
MVFR CIGS/VSBYS MAY DEVELOP ALONG THE SOUTH COAST TOWARD EVENING
AS RAIN EDGES ASHORE. WINDS BECOME NORTHEAST AND INCREASE DURING
THE AFTERNOON.

SATURDAY NIGHT...HIGH CONFIDENCE FOR VFR ALONG/NORTH OF BOS-BDL.
MODERATE CONFIDENCE VFR PVD-HFD WITH LIGHT RAIN POSSIBLE. MODERATE
CONFIDENCE MVFR/IFR CIGS AND MVFR VSBYS IN AREAS OF RAIN ALONG THE
SOUTH COAST IN THE EVENING. RAIN THEN CHANGES TO SNOW AT NIGHT
WITH AREAS OF IFR VSBYS...BEFORE ENDING OVERNIGHT. NORTHEAST WINDS
BECOME NORTHWEST BY MORNING WITH GUSTS 20-25 KNOTS INLAND AND
30-35 KNOTS CAPE AND ISLANDS.

KBOS TERMINAL...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAF.

KBDL TERMINAL...HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAF.

OUTLOOK /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...

SUNDAY...HIGH CONFIDENCE. IMPROVING CONDITIONS BY LATE SUNDAY
MORNING INTO THE AFTERNOON. VFR WITH GUSTY NORTHERLY WINDS NEAR 25-
30 KTS.

MONDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE. VFR WITH A LOW PROB OF MVFR CIGS
IN -SHRA. WINDS WILL SWITCH BACK TO THE SOUTH.

TUESDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE. COLD FRONT WILL PASS THROUGH
RESULTING IN MVFR CIGS AND VSBYS WITHIN +RA.

&&

.MARINE...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

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

SHORT TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...MODERATE-HIGH CONFIDENCE.

TONIGHT...WINDS DIMINISH TONIGHT BUT ROUGH SEAS LINGER ON THE
OUTER WATERS. HEIGHTS CLOSER TO SHORE MAY DIP BELOW 5 FEET. SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORIES WILL CONTINUE ON SOME WATERS BUT WILL BE ALLOWED
TO EXPIRE EARLY TONIGHT CLOSER TO SHORE.

SATURDAY...A WEATHER SYSTEM PASSING BY TO OUR SOUTH SHOULD VEER
WINDS TO NE AND INCREASE SPEEDS. WINDS REACH 25 KNOTS ON THE
SOUTHERN WATERS. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES CONTINUE ACROSS THE OUTER
WATERS AS WELL AS MASSACHUSETTS BAY AND THE RHODE ISLAND WATERS.

SATURDAY NIGHT...LOW PRESSURE OFFSHORE MOVES ACROSS GEORGES BANK
BY MIDNIGHT. THIS WILL BRING NORTH TO NORTHWEST WINDS ACROSS THE
WATERS WITH INCREASING SPEEDS. WINDS OF 35 KNOTS ARE LIKELY. A
GALE WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR ALL WATERS EXCEPT MASSACHUSETTS
BAY/BOSTON HARBOR/NARRAGANSETT BAY.

OUTLOOK /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

SUNDAY...DEPARTING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL RESULT IN NORTHERLY
GALES SAT NIGHT INTO SUN AM. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE
WATERS ALLOWING FOR SEAS AND WINDS TO RELAX.

MONDAY...HIGH PRESSURE ANCHORED OVER THE WATERS WILL ALLOW FOR SEAS
TO RELAX. WARM FRONT WILL PASS OVER THE WATERS LATE IN THE DAY
RESULTING IN SOUTHERLY FLOW. STILL COULD SEE SOME GUSTY WINDS NEAR
SCA DURING THE AFTERNOON.

TUESDAY...STRONG SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL TURN MORE WESTERLY AS COLD
FRONT PASSES OVER THE WATERS. SCA WILL BE NEEDED.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
COASTAL FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THE MASS EAST COAST FOR
THE LATE SATURDAY/SUN MORNING HIGH TIDE.

THIS WEEKEND...

WE WILL HAVE TO WATCH THE TRACK AND STRENGTH OF A DEVELOPING
COASTAL STORM SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY. BOSTON HAS A VERY HIGH ASTRO
TIDE OF 12.2 FEET AROUND 2 AM SUNDAY MORNING...SO ANY EASTERLY
COMPONENT OF THE WIND WOULD RESULT IN AT LEAST MINOR COASTAL
FLOODING ALL ALONG THE MA EAST COAST. A N OR NNE WIND IS
EXPECTED AROUND THE TIME OF HIGH TIDE AND THUS THE STRETCH OF
SHORELINE MOST AT RISK WOULD LIKELY BE HULL TO PLYMOUTH TO
SANDWICH TO DENNIS AND THE NANTUCKET HARBOR AREA. IT IS CERTAINLY
WITHIN THE REALM OF POSSIBILITY THAT NE AND N FACING SHORELINES
SOUTH OF BOSTON MAY EXPERIENCE MINOR TO MODERATE IMPACTS FROM THE
LATE SATURDAY NIGHT/EARLY SUNDAY MORNING HIGH TIDE. SOME EROSION
IS ALSO POSSIBLE.
