Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Taunton MA
1033 AM EDT Sun Oct 29 2017
.SYNOPSIS...
Intensifying early season coastal storm off the Mid-Atlantic
coast brings strong to damaging winds, a few strong to severe
thunderstorms and the potential for flash flooding late today
and tonight. Drier and cooler weather moves in behind the
weather system through midweek. A cold front may bring a few
showers late week.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
10 am update...
*/ Highlights...
- Strong to damaging winds across SNE this evening into tonight
- Potential for hurricane-force wind gusts
- Heavy rainfall with localized flash flood threat into tonight
- A few strong to possibly severe storms into tonight
*/ Discussion...
A dynamic, multi-faced storm system developing off the mid-Atlantic
coast, taking aim on the Northeast. Again, a lot of moving parts and
a lot of uncertainty in the near-term that are likely going to lead
to rapid-fire forecast changes. From the mid-level disturbance out
of the interior, to secondary tropical circulations developing off
the FL coastline (referred to as Phillipe), between interactions and
rapid cyclogenesis, there is the potential for change as we go into
tonight through Monday.
The baroclinic zone is set per clash of airmass over the interior.
The mid to upper level disturbance slowed by downstream blocking
will undergo a negative tilt and obtain greater cyclonic curvature
as its parent main vortlobe digs through the base of the trof. An
evolving H3 dual-jet structure aloft beneath which conveyor belt
motions enhance, the isentropic draw of warm-moist air into the core
of the low promotes rapid cyclogenesis across the baroclinic zone
straight N into Upstate NY, retrograding beneath the closing off,
stacking mid to upper level low in the process, from maturation
towards occlusion.
But overwhelming question, greatest uncertainty is how the synoptic
process above interacts with the aforementioned secondary tropical
circulations off the FL coast. Concerned that we'll see an evolution
towards a warm-core, hybrid low with such secondary circulations
becoming backed beneath the mid-level disturbance towards lower
heights. Taking on the crux of the higher sub-tropical thetaE and
instability along with the main low to mid level convergent forcing
along the nose of an attendant 90-100 mph jet at H925, potentially
as low as H95, coupling with the strong QG-forcing back over the
interior of the NE CONUS (think jet coupling with the surface cold
front), we may see the rapid deepening not so much across the Hudson
River Valley as earlier assumed with the mid-level disturbance, but
rather associated with the secondary circulation / hybrid warm-core
low. The 1.5 PVU surfaces are impressive, the tropopause fold just
showing how dynamic the system is towards bombing a central surface
pressure below 970 mb which impressively ensemble guidance captures.
A level of uncertainty we are tackling with the latest near-term
high-res guidance, how the hybrid warm-core low evolves. Does it
sweep across the interior as the HRRR suggests, hug the coast more
in line with the NAM, or stay offshore as the Canadian indicates?
Closely evaluating the latest HRRR / RAP model trends, the RAP still
holding onto the main action immediately beneath the mid-level
disturbance. Would like to see the 12z 3km NAM which hasn't done bad
in prior events. Will hit on the threat and impact specifics below.
*/ Threat and Impact Specifics...
DAMAGING WINDS...
Advertising 40-50 mph SE gusts across the interior, higher more so
over the high terrain, 50-60 mph for the coastal plain, and along
the coast, 60-70 mph. Conditionally unstable lapse rates, potentially
steeper as noted by the prior forecaster as the dry slot wraps into
the system, expected that would allow for mixing. Stronger wind
gusts with any heavy rain given mechanical mixing / precip-drag,
especially with any strong to potentially severe thunderstorms
(more on that below). Can not rule out hurricane- force wind
gusts along the coast simply associated with the bombing low at
roughly around 4 mb / hr, as subsequent isallobaric response.
Would require an update to HIGH WIND WARNING headlines, but would
like to see the 12z 3km NAM before making that decision. Will keep
with HIGH WIND WARNINGS. Anticipating widespread tree damage lending
to scattered to widespread power outages, likely some structural
damage occurring. Keeping in mind fully leafed trees.
A note on Monday, strong to damaging W winds expected behind the low
given +3-4 mb/hr pressure rises. The isallobaric response, W gusts
up to 60 mph are possible in an environment of steepening lapse
rates of 8-9 C/km, especially over the warmer waters along the
immediate coast. Boundary layer mixing dominating allowing the easy
mix-down of faster momentum for especially the early-half of Monday.
INTERIOR FLOODING...
Forecasting a 2-4 inch event with locally higher amounts. The FLASH
FLOOD WATCH continues with the expected threats of urban / poor
drainage flooding and the potential swell of small streams and
tributaries. Threat is across all of S New England. While there is
greater concern along the E-slopes of high terrain, and within urban
centers, flash flooding is possible everywhere.
Much of the focus on the strong punch, cyclonic, trowaling branch of
the warm-moist conveyor belt of sub-tropical air tonight with
precipitable waters up to 2 inches. High thetaE water content that
is completely abnormal for late October. Ushered in by a SE jet at
H925, as said earlier, of 90-100 mph, convergently focused into S
New England. High freezing level heights (+12 kft agl) beneath
strong deep-layer forcing, a saturated column throughout, resulting
in efficient, warm-rain processes. Looking at a slug of heavy rain
where 1-2"/hr rainfall rates are not out of the question, especially
with any strong to potentially severe thunderstorms.
Greater concern if the aforementioned hybrid warm-core low sweeps
across the interior. If so, would see greater and stronger onshore
flow of sub-tropical moisture along with a more enhanced threat of
strong to potentially severe thunderstorms in addition to the heavy
rain coincident with convergent forcing along the nose of the
aforementioned 90-100 mph low-level jet. Ensemble / CIPS Analogs
still hold the heaviest rain threat over W New England and into the
Hudson River Valley, but feel the signal as advertised by the HRRR
can not be ignored. This could result in more widespread 3-5 inch
rainfalls with locally heavier amounts. Could see the heaviest
rain over S/SE coastal New England.
Recalling, some areas received 4 to 5 inches of rain earlier in the
week. Some small creeks and streams remain a bit high than as of
earlier in the month. Also to consider leaf clogged drains.
STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS:
Still a risk for strong to possible severe storms this afternoon and
during the overnight hours, especially more so if the hybrid warm-
core low sweeps into the interior or hugs closer to the coast.
Dynamic system resulting in broad lift for the region. High amount
of 0-6 km shear with LI values below 0 and some SB cape moving through.
Southern New England will be in the warm sector at this time and
could see some iso strong to severe storms. Even the NCAR ensembles
is hinting at this potential, as well as CIPS Analogs. While confidence
is on the lower side, something to watch today.
COASTAL FLOODING...
In brevity, anticipating splashover, especially along Atlantic-facing
beaches, with impacts to vulnerable shoreline roads. With low astro-
nomical tides, and noting wave heights of 10 to 15 feet for a short
duration along the Atlantic facing beaches, while a surge of 1 to
3 feet can't be ruled out, there isn't a lot of time for swell to
develop. No headlines will be issued with respect to coastal flooding
but will note it in the HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK.
&&
.SHORT TERM /MONDAY/...
*/ Highlights...
- Another round of strong to damaging wind gusts during the day
*/ Discussion...
Negatively tilted trough across the region will begin to phase the
two upper level lows during this time. Thus pushing another strong
vort max through the region. Strong CAA behind the departing low in
combination with dry slot moving through will result in strong,
gusty westerly winds for SNE.
925mb LLJ nearing 40 kts will be overhead as the system departs.
Notice very strong pressure rises and steep lapse rates that will
tap into the jet and mix it fully down. Wind headlines will be
needed but will wait until we get through the first storm.
Even under CAA, temps still remain near seasonable thanks to some
downslope component and slight lag in the cooler air aloft. Highs
mainly in the upper 50s and low 60s.
Lastly, heavy precip will come to an end by Monday morning. However,
we could see lingering showers as the vort max rotates through the
region.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Big Picture...
Large scale pattern shows low pressure over Quebec and a broad
trough across most of the USA and Canada. High pressure sits over
the Gulf of Alaska. The Quebec low lifts north early week, leaving
something close to a zonal flow across the Northern USA through the
week. Shortwave ejects from Alaska Monday night and sweeps
southeast, crossing New England Thursday-Friday.
Missing data complicated the forecast and led to reduced confidence.
Mass fields showed the same general pattern through Saturday,
but with the usual differences in timing of individual waves in
the zonal flow. Thermal fields were also similar through this
period. Confidence is moderate-high.
Details...
Monday night...
Gusty west winds trailing the weekend system will continue to draw
cooler air over Southern New England Monday night. Lapse rates
continue to show mixing during the night, with winds of 30-35 knots.
Dew points lower some more, ranging through the 30s and lower 40s.
Expect a range of min temps in the mid 30s to mid 40s.
Tuesday-Wednesday...
High pressure builds over the region and should bring dry weather
both days. A weak cold front stalls to our north Tuesday and may be
a focal point for clouds of which some expand south into Southern
New England. The high, surface and aloft, will be overhead later
Tuesday night and Wednesday with mostly clear skies and light flow.
Mixing reaches to 850 mb Tuesday, with 20-25 knot winds in the mixed
layer and -1C to -3C temps at 850 mb. Expect gusty winds but less
than early week and sfc max temps in the 50s to near 60. Good
radiational cooling conditions Tuesday night with dew points in the
30s. Expect min sfc temps in the low to mid 30s away from the coast.
Good chance for frost away from the coast with a few sheltered spots
at or a little below freezing. Some increasing clouds Wednesday
especially in the afternoon but overall a fair day with temps
aloft still supporting sfc max temps in the 50s.
Thursday through Saturday...
Upper shortwave moves through during late week. Projected surface
pattern shows warm advection flow Thursday and cold advection flow
Friday. So possibly a warm front Thursday and cold front by Friday?
In any case, chance of showers during this time with a warming trend
each day.
High pressure then builds to our north on Saturday. This would bring
subsidence and dry weather, and part of the day looks to be
that way. But low level data also shows an easterly wind and
cool temps. Increasing low level moisture in the afternoon/night
suggests a chance of showers.
