AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA 1120 AM EDT SUN SEP 24 2006 .SHORT TERM /REST OF TODAY/... LATE SEPTEMBER SUNSHINE STRUGGLING TO BURN OFF LOW LEVEL CLOUD COVER ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. HOWEVER...WHERE THERE HAVE BEEN BREAKS...TEMPERATURES HAVE RESPONDED NICELY. FULL SUN TEMPERATURES ARE NOT EXPECTED TO BE REACHED TODAY...AND THUS WITH ABUNDANT CLOUD COVER WILL LOWER MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES BY A FEW DEGREES IN SPOTS. THERE IS STILL A POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE WEATHER THIS AFTERNOON...AS WIND FIELDS ARE FAIRLY IMPRESSIVE WITH BOUNDARY LAYER SPEEDS OF 35 TO 40 KT AND 850 MILLIBAR WIND SPEEDS UP TO 50 KT...WITH 700 MILLIBAR SPEEDS UP TO 70 KT. IN ADDITION DOPPLER RADAR INDICATING BROKEN LINE SEGMENTS ACROSS CENTRAL NEW YORK STATE WHICH WILL REACH THE WESTERN ZONES BY 17Z. HELICITY/LOW LEVEL SHEAR APPEAR FAVORABLE FOR THIS EVENT HOWEVER LOW LEVEL INSTABILITY IS LACKING. THUS CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH FOR A WIDESPREAD EVENT. HOWEVER POTENTIAL STILL EXISTS FOR STRONG GUSTY WINDS. THUS WILL CONTINUE THE WORDING OF GUSTY WINDS IN THE GRIDS/ZONES. WILL CONTINUE WITH A WIND ADVISORY ALONG THE SOUTH COAST FOR NOW. HOWEVER LOW LEVEL INVERSION AND CLOUD COVER APPEARS TO BE INHIBITING MUCH OF THE POTENTIAL MIXING WITHIN THE BOUNDARY LAYER. WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR SATELLITE AND OBSERVATION TRENDS...BUT MAY CONSIDER AN EARLY CANCELLATION WITHIN THE NEXT FEW HOURS. MARINE: MARGINAL GALES CONTINUE FOR THE COASTAL WATERS. && .PREVIOUS DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 344 AM EDT SUN SEP 24 2006/ SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH TONIGHT/... THE SHORT TERM FOCUSSES ON A COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE. THIS EVENT INCLUDES BOTH POTENTIAL NON THUNDERSTORM WIND AS WELL AS A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM THREAT. WE WENT WITH THE GFS TIMING OF THE FRONT...WHICH HAS MAINTAINED BETTER RUN TO RUN CONTINUITY. THE FRONT IS SUPPORTED OVER NEW ENGLAND BY THE RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF THE UPPER JET AND 50 KNOT LOW LEVEL JETS AT 850 AND 900 MB. ALTHOUGH MODEL INSTABILITY IS NOT OVERLY IMPRESSIVE...WITH TEMPS IN THE 80S AND DEWPOINTS IN THE MID AND UPPER 60S THIS MAY BE UNDERDONE. THIS POTENTIAL INSTABILITY...THE DYNAMIC SUPPORT...AND SEVERE-LEVEL WINDS READY TO BE MIXED TO THE SURFACE BY ANY STRONG HEATING. SEEMS LIKE ENOUGH TO MENTION STRONG WIND GUSTS WITH THUNDERSTORMS. THE GFS FORECASTS 25-30 KT WINDS AT 1000 MB OVER CAPE COD AND THE ISLANDS WHILE ALSO FORECASTING SURFACE PRESSURES JUST A LITTLE ABOVE 1000 MB. WITH 27 KTS NEAR THE GROUND AND 40+ KTS WITHIN MIXING RANGE ABOVE...THE CAPE AND ISLANDS ARE AT RISK FOR ADVISORY WINDS IN ANY CASE. THE CHANCES DIMINISH FARTHER NORTH AND WEST...WE WILL TRIM THE CURRENT ADVISORY FROM SOUTHWEST RI BUT MAINTAIN FOR BLOCK ISLAND AND THE SOUTH COAST EAST OF NARRAGANSETT BAY. THE FRONT MOVES OFFSHORE THIS EVENING...AND THE PRESSURE GRADIENT RELAXES TONIGHT TO THE POINT OF BECOMING BAGGY. THUS WE EXPECT WINDS TO DIMINISH POST FRONTAL. PATCHES OF MOISTURE ALOFT ALONG WITH A SHORTWAVE SUGGEST PATCHY CLOUDS OVERNIGHT...BUT THERE SHOULD ALSO BE A PERIOD OF MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES. WENT A COUPLE OF DEGREES ABOVE MAV TODAY AND AT MAV TEMPERATURES FOR TONIGHT. LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/... CDFNT WILL BE WELL SE OF SNE BY 12Z MON BUT SFC TROF WILL BE LAGGING BACK ACRS EASTERN ZONES WHERE BEST 850 RH IS LOCATED. WE SHOULD SEE BKN CU DEVELOP AND GFS HINTING AT A FEW SPRINKLES IN THE COASTAL PLAIN BUT WE KEPT IT DRY DUE TO LARGE T/TD SPREAD. MAX TEMPS WILL RANGE FROM MID 60S TO LOW 70S. GENERALLY MOCLR TO PTCLDY SKIES EXPECTED MON NGT WITH DRY NW FLOW IN PLACE. MOST CLOUDS SHOULD BE ACRS NW ZONES. LOWS WILL BE MOSTLY IN 40S EXCEPT LOW 50S IN BOS AND ALONG IMMEDIATE S COAST. UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE PASSES TO THE NORTH ON TUE WITH ANOTHER WEAK SFC TROF ACRS ERN ZONES AND SOME LOW LEVEL RH WHICH SHOULD RESULT IN SOME DIURNAL CU DURING THE DAY. 850 TEMPS ARE COOLER THAN MON BUT 2M AND 925 MB TEMPS ARE SIMILAR SO EXPECT MAXES IN MID 60S TO LOW 70S AGAIN ON TUE. HIGH PRES BUILDS OVER SNE TUE NIGHT THEN GRADUALLY MOVES OFFSHORE WED. MINS TUE NIGHT WILL BE MOSTLY IN THE 40S EXCEPT LOW 50S IN BOS. A FEW UPPER 30S ARE POSSIBLE TUE NIGHT ACRS NW ZONES WITH IDEAL RADIATIONAL COOLING. THEN NICE MODERATION ON WED WITH MAXES APPROACHING 70 BUT SEABREEZES WILL BE POSSIBLE ALONG THE COAST. MED RANGE MODELS ALL SHOW AMPLIFYING UPPER TROF ACRS GREAT LAKES ON THU WHICH LIFTS ACRS NORTHEAST DURING FRI WITH DECENT FROPA. THERE IS STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY REGARDING THE TIMING AS SEVERAL ENSEMBLE MEMBERS ARE SLOWER WITH FROPA THAN GFS/ECMWF. NONTHELESS...SFC RIDGE AXIS SHOULD KEEP IT DRY THRU THU. GFS/ECMWF INDICATE INCREASING CHC SHOWERS THU NIGHT INTO FRI WITH GFS INSTABILITY PARAMETERS SIGNALING POTENTIAL FOR TSTMS. HOWEVER...ENSEMBLE MEAN STAYS DRY THU NIGHT WITH NIL POP FOR 0.1...BRINGING BEST CHC RAIN ON FRI INTO FRI NIGHT. DUE TO UNCERTAINTY WE MADE NO CHANGES WHICH KEEPS THREAT OF SHOWERS THU NIGHT INTO FRI EVENING. AVIATION... MIXED BAG OF MVFR/IFR/LIFR IN FOG AND STRATUS EARLY THIS MORNING. CONDITIONS UPSTREAM IMPROVE TO VFR IN CLOUDS AND THIS LOOKS REASONABLE FOR US FROM MID MORNING. WINDS UP TO 50 KTS MOVE IN A COUPLE OF THOUSAND FEET OFF THE DECK...ESPECIALLY OVER RI AND EASTERN MA. SO LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR HAS BEEN INCLUDED IN THE BOS-PVD-HYA-ACK TAFS FOR THE AFTERNOON. THUNDERSTORMS WILL ACCOMPANY THE COLD FRONT AND WILL BRIEFLY BRING CIGS/VSBYS DOWN TO IFR...PROBABLY FOR 30-45 MINUTES BETWEEN NOON AND 8 PM. WE WILL INCLUDE CB GROUPS WITHOUT TSTM RESTRICTIONS UNTIL THE TIMING AT EACH STATION CAN BE CLARIFIED. MARINE... LINGERING SWELL TODAY BUT WITH DIMINISHING SEAS EXPECTED DURING THE DAY. WE WILL KEEP THE HIGH SURF ADVISORY IN PLACE THROUGH THE DAY DUE TO THE LINGERING EAST SWELL. STRONG WINDS ALOFT AND A DECENT SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT SHOULD SUPPORT INCREASING WIND TODAY. PER THE GFS...WINDS AT 1000 MB PERK UP TO 25 TO 30 KTS THIS AFTERNOON WHILE THE SURFACE PRESSURE IS FORECAST AT 1000-1005 MB. WINDS AT 950 MB ARE FORECAST AT 35 TO 45 KT. WE WILL CONTINUE THE GALE WARNING FOR ALL OUR WATERS TODAY WITH THE EXPECTATION THAT WINDS WILL DIMINISH WITH THE SLACKENING PRESSURE GRADIENT AFTER THE COLD FRONT SWINGS THROUGH THIS EVENING. LONG TERM...NO WIND ISSUES THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH SPEEDS 15 KTS OR LESS. HAZARDOUS SEAS WILL CONTINUE ON MON WITH 5-7 FT FCST FOR OUTER SOUTHERN WATERS AND RI SOUND WHICH WILL GRADUALLY SUBSIDE BELOW 5 FT LATE MON NGT. HYDROLOGY... PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES MAX NEAR 1.90 OVER RI AND SOUTHEAST MA THIS AFTERNOON WITH 1.5 TO 1.75 INCHES FARTHER WEST. WITH THE ATMOSPHERE THIS JUICY...WE WILL HAVE A POTENTIAL FOR LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS DURING THE AFTERNOON WITH THE BEST CHANCE ALONG AND SOUTHEAST OF THE I-95 CORRIDOR. && .BOX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
