AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
335 AM EDT WED MAR 30 2016

.SYNOPSIS...

* UPDATES TO NEAR AND SHORT TERM PORTIONS ONLY...

HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE GREAT LAKES BUILDS E BRINGING LIGHT WINDS
INTO WEDNESDAY...MOVING OFFSHORE BY AFTERNOON ALLOWING MILDER AIR
TO RETURN. A COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH LATE THURSDAY NIGHT...CROSSING
THE REGION ON FRIDAY WITH LOCALLY HEAVY SHOWERS. AN ARCTIC FRONT
FOLLOWS SATURDAY NIGHT...BRINGING THE CHANCE FOR SOME WINTRY
PRECIPITATION. THIS WILL USHER IN UNSEASONABLY COLD TEMPERATURES
INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...ALONG WITH BLUSTERY WINDS.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...

CRITICAL TIMING OF HIGH PRESSURE S OF NEW ENGLAND SHIFTING E
WILL DETERMINE THE USHERANCE OF S FLOW ONSHORE AS WELL AS THE
POSSIBLE DEVELOPMENT OF A SEA-BREEZE ACROSS IMMEDIATE E COASTAL
MASS. THERE ARE SUBSEQUENT IMPLICATIONS ON 2M TEMPERATURES WITH
S/SE COUNTIES OF RI AND MASS WARMING INTO THE MID TO UPPER 40S BY
EARLY AFTERNOON DROPPING OFF THEREAFTER WITH INCREASING S ONSHORE
FLOW. WHEREAS THE INTERIOR SHOULD WARM INTO THE MID TO UPPER 50S
INTO THE AFTERNOON. S GUSTS 20 TO 25 MPH POSSIBLY AS HIGH AS 30 MPH
BY EVENING. INCREASING THIN MID-HIGH CLOUD LATE. OTHERWISE SUNNY.

&&

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

TONIGHT...

MAIN CONCERN IS WITH THE INCREASING S/SW FLOW AHEAD OF AN ELONGATED
STORM SYSTEM OUT OF THE CENTRAL CONUS. DESPITE THIN MID-HIGH CLOUDS
BELIEVE THE BOUNDARY LAYER WILL DECOUPLE BENEATH WARM AIR ADVECTION
PROCEEDING AROUND H925. W HILE THIS WILL LIMIT THE EFFECTIVENESS OF
MIXING DOWN OF FASTER MOMENTUM...SUFFICIENT PRESSURE GRADIENT SHOULD
RESULT IN S/SW GUSTS 20 TO 30 MPH. OTHERWISE RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE
AND DRY INVERSION REMAINS STOUT BENEATH WHICH DEWPOINTS RISE AND
MOISTURE POOLS YIELDING MARINE STRATUS WITH ONSHORE BREEZY S FLOW.
LESSER CONFIDENCE OF FOG. LOOKING AT A NON-DIURNAL TEMPERATURE TREND
BEGINNING AFTER MIDNIGHT.

THURSDAY...

WIND ADVISORY FOR PORTIONS OF SE NEW ENGLAND. ASSUMING OVERNIGHT
MARINE STRATUS ERODES...COMBINATION OF SUNSHINE AND S FLOW SHOULD
ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO WARM WELL INTO THE 60S. SUBSEQUENT BOUNDARY
LAYER MIXING UP TO H925 WHERE WINDS ARE SUSTAINED 45 TO 65 MPH
SHOULD EASILY RESULT IN GUSTS AT THE SURFACE THAT MEET OR EXCEED
WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA OF 46 MPH. CLIMATOLOGICALLY IT APPEARS WE
WILL FALL SHORT OF HIGH WIND WARNING CRITERIA. WOULD LIKE TO SEE
STRONGER S WINDS AT H925 AND GREATER PRESSURE FALLS. BUT NOT OUT OF
THE QUESTION THERE IS SOME RISK ESPECIALLY ACROSS SE MASSACHUSETTS
NAMELY PLYMOUTH AND BRISTOL COUNTIES WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR GUSTS
UP TO 55 MPH.

WILL START THE BALL ROLLING WITH A CONSERVATIVE FORECAST. CONFINE
WIND ADVISORY HEADLINES TO E/SE MASS AND RI WHERE CONFIDENCE IS
HIGHEST. WILL LET LATER SHIFTS EVALUATE AS TO EXPANSION N/W. HAVE
FORECAST STRONGEST GUSTS UP TO 50 MPH.

TOWARDS EVENING AS THE COLUMN BEGINS TO COOL WILL SEE INITIAL WAVES
OF MID LEVEL FORCING BENEATH INCREASING DIFFLUENCE. THOUGH CONTINUED
DRY INVERSION ALOFT...APPEARS OUTCOMES MAINLY IN THE FORM OF DRIZZLE
WITH INCREASING DEWPOINTS AND MOISTURE POOLING WITHIN LOW LEVELS.
CHANCE POPS ACCORDINGLY.

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

HIGHLIGHTS...

* WARMER TEMPERATURES LATE THIS WEEK WITH GUSTY WINDS THURSDAY
  INTO THURSDAY NIGHT
* SHOWERS WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN POSSIBLE THURSDAY NIGHT INTO
  FRIDAY
* ANOTHER FRONT WILL BRING A MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS EARLY
  THIS WEEKEND...THEN LATE SEASON ARCTIC COLD MOVES IN EARLY NEXT
  WEEK

OVERVIEW AND MODEL PREFERENCES...

12Z MODEL SUITE AND ENSEMBLES CONTINUE TO SIGNAL A TRANSITIONING
UPPER LEVEL STEERING PATTERN...WITH RIDGING ALONG THE EASTERN
SEABOARD. THIS WILL PROGRESS EASTWARD BY THIS WEEKEND AS LONG WAVE
TROUGH DIGS ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES. AS LONG WAVE RIDGE BUILDS
ALONG THE PACIFIC COAST INTO INTERIOR ALASKA...RESPONDING ARCTIC
AIRMASS DIGS WITH H5 SHORT WAVE IN THE OVERALL LONG WAVE TROUGH
TOWARD THE REGION LATE THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. THIS
WILL RESULT IN DAYTIME HIGHS RUNNING AROUND 15 DEGREES BELOW
SEASONAL NORMALS ON SUNDAY AND MONDAY. AS BASE OF VORTEX ACROSS
EASTERN CANADA REMAINS ACROSS NEW ENGLAND...MAY SEE ANOTHER SYSTEM
WORKS ACROSS THE NORTHERN TIER STATES TOWARD THE REGION NEXT
TUESDAY.

WITH THE RATHER GOOD AGREEMENT AMONGST THE MODELS AND ENSEMBLES
INTO THIS WEEKEND...USED A BLEND OF AVAILABLE GUIDANCE THROUGH
SUNDAY. BEYOND THIS...TRENDED TOWARD ENSEMBLES FOR MONDAY AND
TUESDAY... ESPECIALLY WITH TIMING OF THE POSSIBLE LOW PRESSURE
PASSING S OF THE REGION NEXT TUESDAY.

DETAILS...

THURSDAY...
HIGH PRES BUILDS OFFSHORE WITH LOW LEVEL WARM AIR ADVECTION IN
PLACE. S-SW WINDS BECOME GUSTY AS LOW LEVEL JET UP TO 60 KT FROM
H95 TO H85 PASSES ACROSS SOUTHERN AREAS. SOME QUESTION AS TO
AMOUNT OF LOW LEVEL MIXING THAT WILL DEVELOP WITH IT DURING THE
DAY...AS THERE IS SOME DISAGREEMENT BETWEEN THE NAM AND GFS. MAY
SEE SOME MIXING AWAY FROM THE COAST...BUT ALSO HAVE GRADIENT WINDS
IN PLACE ON BACKSIDE OF HIGH PRES OFF THE EASTERN SEABOARD. HAVE
MENTIONED GUSTS UP TO 35-40 MPH...BUT COULD SEE HIGHER GUSTS THAT
MAY APPROACH WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA. WILL HAVE TO WATCH THIS
ASPECT.

MILD AIR WORKS INTO THE REGION. EXPECT HIGHS MAINLY IN THE 60S...
BUT COULD TOUCH 70 ACROSS THE COASTAL PLAIN AND LOWER CT VALLEY.

CLOUDS WILL QUICKLY INCREASE DURING THE AFTERNOON AS SCT SHOWERS
MOVE IN AHEAD OF APPROACHING FRONT.

THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY NIGHT...
COLD FRONT SWINGS ACROSS THE REGION DURING FRIDAY. GOOD PWATS
MOVE ACROSS WITH THE SYSTEM...ON ORDER OF 1.2 TO 1.4 INCHES CLOSE
TO RECORD HIGH PWATS FOR APRIL 1 PER SPC SOUNDING CLIMATOLOGY.
STRONG LOW LEVEL JET ALSO CONTINUES ACROSS THE REGION...SO WOULD
NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE SOME ELEVATED CONVECTION FIRE. WILL BE
TOUGH TO MIX DOWN THE STRONGER WINDS EXCEPT IN ANY HEAVIER SHOWERS
MAINLY ACROSS S COASTAL AREAS OVERNIGHT INTO FRI MORNING.

FRONT SHOULD CLEAR THE COAST BY MIDDAY FRIDAY BUT SHOWERS MAY LINGER
AS UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE FOLLOWS LATER FRIDAY. WILL SEE BRIEF BREAK
IN THE PRECIP LATER FRI NIGHT...THOUGH CLOUDS WILL TEND TO LINGER.

SATURDAY...
WEAK RIDGE BUILDS ACROSS WITH BRIEF DRY PERIOD BEFORE NEXT SYSTEM
APPROACHES IN FAST FLOW ALOFT.

SATURDAY NIGHT-SUNDAY...
ARCTIC FRONT WORKS SE WITH ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOWERS. VERY STRONG
COLD AIR ADVECTION WORKS IN BEHIND THIS SYSTEM...WITH PRECIP
CHANGING OVER TO SNOW SHOWERS AS COLD AIR SPILLS IN. NOTING H85
TEMPS DROPPING TO -15C TO -18C...WHICH IS IMPRESSIVE ENOUGH FOR
EARLY APRIL BUT CORE OF THE COLD AIR REMAINS ACROSS QUEBEC INTO
NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND.

SNOW SHOWERS WILL LINGER INTO SUNDAY MORNING...THEN LOW PRES
MOVES INTO THE MARITIMES. BOTH THE GGEM AND GFS HAS THIS LOW
DEEPENING TO A SUB 970 HPA LOW...WHICH MEANS STRONG PRES GRADIENT
IN PLACE. WILL SEE BLUSTERY WINDS ON SUNDAY...WHICH WILL ONLY ADD
TO THE COLD. EXPECT DAYTIME HIGHS TO RUN 10 TO 15 DEGREES BELOW
SEASONAL NORMALS FOR EARLY APRIL. THE COLD TEMPS AND WINDS WILL
COMBINE TO BRING WIND CHILL VALUES TO THE TEENS ACROSS THE HIGHER
INLAND TERRAIN TO THE 20S ELSEWHERE SAT NIGHT.

MONDAY-TUESDAY...
SOME TIMING ISSUES IN PLACE DURING THIS TIMEFRAME...BUT SOME
CONTINUITY IN LAST FEW RUNS FOR MONDAY SUGGEST HIGH PRES WILL
BRING DRY BUT COLD CONDITIONS. SOME QUESTIONS FOR TUESDAY AS FAST
MOVING LOW PRES MAY PUSH TOWARD THE REGION OUT OF THE GREAT LAKES
ON TUESDAY.
