NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
535 PM EDT MON JUN 19 2006

.....MULTIPLE CONVECTIVE OUTBREAKS EXPECTED IN SNE LATE TODAY THROUGH
SATURDAY IN WHAT LOOKS LIKE AN ACTIVE PATTERN WITH LARGE RAIN TOTALS
AND SEVERAL SEVERE WEATHER OUTBREAKS...

...MESOSCALE UPDATE PROVIDED AT START OF SHORT TERM SEGMENT...

.SYNOPSIS...
PULSES OF WARM WET ADVECTION WILL SPILL THUNDERSTORMS AND ASSOCIATED
VERY HEAVY RAINFALL THIS EVENING...TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND THEN AGAIN
EITHER OR BOTH THURSDAY...FRIDAY INTO EARLY SATURDAY.  SEVERE WX
ALSO ASSOCIATED /NOTE THE HAIL AND WIND IN SE LOWER MICH WHICH IS
A SIGNAL FOR A POSSIBLE REPEAT HERE TOMORROW/.

A BREAK SEEMS TO BE COMING LATE SATURDAY THROUGH MOST OF SUNDAY AS
AND THE FLOW TURNS WNW ALOFT WITH COOL HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING NORTH
OF NEW ENGLAND.

A WET SWLY CONVEYOR LIKELY DEVELOPS EARLY NEXT WEEK AND AMOUNTS MAY
BE LARGER THAN WHATEVER TALLIES BY NOON SATURDAY.  CPC DAY 6-14
ISSUED THIS AFTERNOON HAS WETTER THAN NORMAL PATTERN...AND IS
CONSISTENT WITH PRIOR OUTLOOKS THIS WEEKEND.

ALL THIS BORNE OF AN EVENTUAL STRENGTHENING RIDGE ALOFT JUST OFF THE
NEW ENGLAND COAST THAT SHOULD PREVENT THE QSTRY FRONT FROM MOVING
VERY MUCH SOUTH OF 40N THIS WEEKEND.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
UPDATE - MESOSCALE TRENDS...WITH LOSS OF HEATING SO WENT THE
CONVECTION. MOSTLY SCATTERED WIND REPORTS WHERE SVR DID OCCUR - AND
ONE OR TWO HAILERS - PER THE LSRBOX.  WILL TOUCH UP GRIDS FOR THE
OVERNIGHT FOR CLOUD DEBRIS AND WILL LEAVE CHC POPS OVERNIGHT OUT OF
RESPECT FOR THE ACTION MOVING ACROSS PA ATM.  BELIEVE MOST WILL
DIMINISH BEFORE REACHING THE ERN PART OF CWA.

FROM EARLIER DISC...
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 511 IN EFFECT FOR SRN NH...ALL OF MA
EXCEPT SE...AND HARTFORD COUNTY CT UNTIL 10 PM.  PRE FRONTAL TROUGH
EXTENDING FROM NH VT BORDER SOUTHWESTWARD INTO PA IS THE FOCUS OF A
LINE/AREA OF THUNDERSTORMS...MANY SEVERE.  LATER THIS EVENING AS
NIGHTTIME COOLING PROGRESSES...AIRMASS WILL BECOME LESS
UNSTABLE...AND SEVERE THREAT IS EXPECTED TO DIMINISH.
HOWEVER...CHANCE FOR SHOWERS WILL REMAIN IN EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE
AREA FOR MUCH OF THE NIGHT.

TUESDAY WILL BRING THE POTENTIAL FOR ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS
TUESDAY AFTERNOON. A COLD FRONT IS FORECAST TO TRACK EASTWARD ACROSS
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND DURING THE AFTERNOON.  WILL HAVE AMPLE
OPPORTUNITY FOR DAYTIME HEATING...SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE TSTMS
TUESDAY AS COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH. NAM HINTS AT LOW LEVEL STRATUS
WITH SW FLOW ALONG SOUTH COASTAL ZONES AS WELL AS CAPE COD AND THE
ISLANDS. IF THIS HAPPENS IT WOULD LIMIT INSTABILITY IN THOSE AREAS.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
TUESDAY NIGHT...WHATEVER LEFTOVER TSTMS WITH HAIL AND GUSTY WINDS
WILL BE QUICKLY DISSIPATING JUST AFTER SUNSET.  12Z GFS MOS MAV
GUIDANCE TEMPS.

WEDNESDAY... CONTINUES TO LOOK EXCEPTIONAL. COMFORTABLE HUMIDITY...
BRIGHT SUNSHINE AND WARM TEMPERATURES.  12Z GFS MOS MAV GUIDANCE
TEMPS.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT...WARM MOIST ADVECTION SEEMS DESTINED TO SPREAD A
SHOWER THREAT ACROSS THE REGION BY DAYBREAK THURSDAY. 12Z GFS MOS MAV
GUIDANCE TEMPS.

THURSDAY...PW 1SD ABOVE NORMAL AND HEATING UP.  HUMID. LOOKS POTENT
FOR AFTERNOON TSTMS. IF THEY DEVELOP...SEVERE POSSIBLE.  OUR PROB OF
RAIN CONSERVATIVE.  12Z GFS MOS MEX GUIDANCE TEMPS.

FRIDAY...PW STILL +1SD.  FRONTAL BOUNDARY IN THE AREA AND WITH WEAK
LOW PRES.  SEVERE POTENTIAL AND TRAINING OF EXCESSIVE RFALL POSSIBLE
IN THE AFTN. OUR PROB OF RAIN CONSERVATIVE.  COASTAL SEABREEZE OR NE
FLOW DEVELOPING BOSTON N SHORE IN THE AFTN AS FRONTAL BOUNDARY TRIES
TO SAG SOUTHWARD.  12Z GFS MOS MEX GUIDANCE TEMPS.

SATURDAY...LEFTOVER MORNING RAINS...DIMINISHING LATER IN THE DAY.
TEMPS UNCERTAIN BUT POSSIBLY MUCH COOLER BOSTON N SHORE THAN FCST AT
THIS TIME.  12Z GFS MOS MEX GUIDANCE TEMPS.

SUNDAY...HIGHLY UNCERTAIN REGARDING ANY RAINFALL AND TEMPS COULD BE
COOLER THAN FORECAST COASTAL MASSACHUSETTS. THE UK AND ECMWF MOVED
SOUTH WITH TODAYS 12Z RUNS BUT THE GFS 12Z ENSEMBLES ARE THREATENING
A QUICK RETURN TO WSW FLOW ALOFT.  12Z GFS MOS MEX GUIDANCE TEMPS.

MONDAY...THREATENING A TROPICAL CONNECTION ALOFT AS W ATLC RIDGE
ASSERTS ITSELF...AND SWLY OVERUNNING FLOW DEVELOPS WITH AN INVERTED
TROF OR FRONTAL SYSTEM NEAR THE SNE COAST. EC AND GFS NEARLY
IDENTICAL PATTERN.

&&

.AVIATION...
INITIALLY...VFR CONDITIONS EXCEPT FOR AREAS OF HAZE. LINE OF
THUNDERSTORMS TO MOVE THOUGH THIS EVENING...SOME MAY BE SEVERE.  IFR
CIGS AND VSBY POSSIBLE...LIFR IN STRONGEST TSTMS.  SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM WATCH IN EFFECT FOR A LARGE PORTION OF SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND UNTIL 10 PM...POTENTIAL FOR WIND GUSTS TO 60 KTS AND LARGE
HAIL UNTIL THEN.  LATER TONIGHT CONDITIONS IMPROVE...ALTHOUGH IFR TO
MVFR CEILINGS WITH FOG MAY PERSIST IN SOME LOCATIONS.

HAZY SKIES EXPECTED TO RETURN FOR TUESDAY...VFR SKIES TO
START...EXCEPT IFR CEILINGS ON CAPE COD AND ISLANDS DUE TO
SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW OVER ATLANTIC WATERS.

&&

.MARINE...
SHORT TERM...PROLONGED SW FETCH CONTINUES TONIGHT AND TUE AHEAD OF
COLD FRONT.  SCA FOR WINDS AND SEAS THROUGH TUE EXCEPT FOR BOSTON
HARBOR AND NARRAGANSETT BAY DURING THIS TIMEFRAME...COLD FRONT
FORECAST TO PUSH EAST OF WATERS TUESDAY EVENING.

LONG TERM...SCA SEAS DUE TO SW FETCH POSSIBLE LATE THIS COMING
WEEK ON THE S COAST OPEN WATERS.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
THIS PATTERN CONTINUES TO LOOK VERY WET AND POTENT.

TO SIMPLIFY...WEVE HAD GFS RUN AFTER RUN OF 7 DAY TOTAL RFALL OF
3.0-4.5 ACROSS AN 80 MILE WIDE SWATH CUTTING SOMEWHERE THRU SNE.
THIS FORECASTER HAS HIGH CONFIDENCE OF ITS OCCURRENCE.

IF I WERE TO CHOOSE AN AXIS FOR THE NEXT 5 DAYS...ID RUN ABOUT 40
MILES EITHER SIDE OF A BDL-BOS LINE.

FROM NOW THROUGH 21Z SAT...EXPECTING WIDESPREAD 2 INCH RAIN TOTALS FM
21Z TODAY THRU 21Z SAT OF 2 INCHES WITH ISOLATED 6 INCH TOTALS. THATS
OVER A 5 DAY PERIOD WITH A 36 HR PERIOD OF RECOVERY DURING MID WEEK.
DIFFLUENT THICKNESS ON THE PERIPHERY OF THE WESTERLIES FRIDAY IS A
PARTICULARLY VERY WET LOOKING DAY.

EARLY NEXT WEEK RENEWS THE POTENCY FOR LARGE RAINFALL BUT SINCE ITS
A WEEK AWAY CONFIDENCE MUCH LOWER.  IF THE MODELED PATTERN DOES NOT
FLATTEN AND THE EAST COAST RIDGE AND SWLY FLOW ALOFT CONTS TO BE
SUCCESSFULLY FORECAST FOR EARLY NEXT WEEK...THEN I THINK WE CAN COUNT
ON MORE SUBSTANTIAL RAINFALL.

IT IS SUGGESTED THAT ALL WATER INTERESTS CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE
PATTERN EVOLUTION THESE NEXT 10 DAYS. ALREADY LARGE MAJ-JUNE RAINFALL
AND THE POTENTIAL FOR SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNTS IN PARTS OF THE REGION
COULD POSE NEW WATER PROBLEMS FOR THE AREA.  NEWBURYPORT 28.16 SO
FAR SINCE MAY 1.
