AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
419 AM EST FRI DEC 12 2008
.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE OVER NEW JERSEY WILL MOVE ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
THIS MORNING AND REACH THE MARITIMES THIS EVENING. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
BUILD OVER THE NORTHEAST USA SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...THEN MOVE OFF TO
THE EAST ON MONDAY. A COLD FRONT WILL CROSS NEW ENGLAND ON TUESDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL NOON TODAY/...
SURGES OF HEAVY RAIN ARE MOVING ACROSS MUCH OF SOUTEHRN NEW ENGLAND.
THIS IS IN THE COMBINED ISENTROPIC AND DYNAMIC LIFT THAT IS FOCUSSED
OVER THE REGION. THE SOURCE OF THE ISENTROPIC LIFT...A WARM
FRONT...IS MOVING NORTH INTO THE SOUTH COAST WITH THE RAIN TAPERING
FOR A TIME OVER THE CAPE AND ISLANDS.
TEMPERATURES JUMP NOTICEABLY ACROSS THE FRONT WITH THE CAPE AND
ISLANDS JUMPING INTO THE MID 50S. TEMPERATURES REMAIN NEAR STEADY OR
VERY SLOWLY RISING FARTHER NORTH...CERTAINLY RISING MORE SLOWLY THAN
EARLIER ANTICIPATED.
THE TRAILING EDGE OF THE PRECIPITATION HAS MOVED OFFSHORE OF NORTH
CAROLINA AND VIRGINIA...AND EXTRAPOLATES TO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND IN
4-5 HOURS. GIVEN ITS POSITION RELATIVE TO THE SURFACE LOW...THIS
WOULD SEEM A COUPLE OF HOURS FAST GIVEN THE MODEL CONCENSUS ON TIMING
THE LOW ACROSS OUR AREA. WE WILL CONTINUE CATEGORICAL POPS THROUGH
12Z AND THEN START LOWERING THEM AFTER THAT...WITH CHANCE POPS
EVERYWHERE BY NOON.
STRONG WINDS ALOFT WITH THE BOX VAD WIND PROFILE /NORTH OF THE FRONT/
SHOWING 60 KNOTS AT 4K FEET. THE OKX VAD WIND PROFILE /SOUTH OF THE
FRONT/ HAS 50 KNOTS AT 1000 FEET AND 70-75 KNOTS AT 2K FEET. STRONG
WINDS HAVE BEEN KEPT ALOFT BY THE LOW LEVEL TEMPERATURE
INVERSION...BUT THE WARM SURFACE TEMPERATURES WILL SERVE TO WEAKEN
THAT INVERSION LEADING TO STRONGER WINDS...ESPECIALLY GUSTS...IN THE
WARM SECTOR. THESE WARM TEMPS WILL ALSO DESTABILIZE THE LOCAL
AIRMASS...LEADING TO A CHANCE OF THUNDER THIS MORNING.
WITH ALL THIS IN MIND...WE WILL ADJUST THE VARIOUS HEADLINES. THE ICE
STORM WARNING WILL BE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE MA ZONES 5 AND 6 /NORTHERN
ESSEX AND NORTHERN MIDDLESEX/ AND EXTENDED TO 10 AM. THE WINTER
WEATHER ADVISORY FOR HAMPDEN COOUNTY WILL EXTEND TO 7 AM. THE FLOOD
ADVISORY WILL CONTINUE TO 18Z. THE WIND ADVISORY FOR THE SOUTH COAST
WILL CONTINUE THROUGH 10 AM AND BE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE NEWPORT
COUNTY. ALSO...WE WILL CONTINUE A CHANCE OF THUNDER TO THE FORECAST
FOR RI AND SE MASS.
&&
.SHORT TERM /NOON TODAY THROUGH 6 AM SATURDAY/...
AN UPPER TROF SWINGS THROUGH TONIGHT AND MAY CONTRIBUTE A FEW CLOUDS.
OTHERWISE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN AND SHOULD PROVIDE A CLEARING TREND
THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. COLD AIR ADVECTION TONIGHT WITH MOS MIN
TEMPS IN THE TEENS...LOOKING UPSTREAM TO NORTHERN MICHIGAN THIS LOOKS
REALISTIC. AND CHILLING.
&&
.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND FRIDAY NIGHT AND
CRESTS OVER THE REGION LATER SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY.
OVERALL...THIS WILL ALLOW FOR FINE WEATHER OVER THE WEEKEND ASIDE FOR
SOME CLOUDS FROM TIME TO TIME AS MID AND HIGH LEVEL MOISTURE
OCCASIONALLY STREAMS EASTWARD. TEMPS FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY WILL
BE QUITE COLD...ALONG WITH EVEN COLDER WIND CHILL VALUES. WE MODIFY
TO CLOSE TO NORMAL ON SUNDAY.
WARM AIR ADVECTION GETS GOING IN EARNEST SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY AND
HIGH PRESSURE MOVES OFFSHORE. THIS MAY AID IN INTRODUCING MORE
CLOUDINESS AND PERHAPS SOME VERY LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS ACROSS THE
INTERIOR LATER MONDAY AS A COLD FRONT APPROACHES. TEMPS RELATIVELY
MILD MONDAY...WITH MAXES AROUND 10 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL IF NOT A BIT
HIGHER.
COLD FRONT SAGS SOUTHEASTWARD ACROSS UPSTATE NY AND NEW ENGLAND
MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY. WENT WITH A CHANCE OF SHOWERS DURING THIS
PERIOD. TEMPS WILL BE WARM ENOUGH FOR RAIN ALL AREAS.
THE PATTERN LOOKS TO BECOME CONDUCIVE FOR ONE OR MORE WINTER WEATHER
EVENTS MID TO LATE WEEK AS RELATIVELY WEAK LOW PRESSURE SYSTEMS
DEVELOP AND RIDE EASTWARD ALONG THE OLD SAGGING FRONTAL BOUNDARY. WAY
TOO EARLY TO TELL...BUT THE POTENTIAL IS THERE FOR A MIXED BAG OF
PRECIP FOR MUCH OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND MID TO LATE WEEK.
MODELS WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE TROUBLE RESOLVING THE SHORT WAVES THIS
FAR IN ADVANCE...SO WHETHER WE SEE RAIN/SNOW/SLEET OR FREEZING RAIN
AND ON WHAT DAYS IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO TELL AT THIS TIME.
&&
.AVIATION /09Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THIS MORNING...
WIDESPREAD IFR CONDITIONS WITH FZRA AT ORH AND MHT TIL ABOUT
09Z...THEN PLAIN RAIN. ALL RAIN OTHER TERMINALS. OTHER HAZARD THIS
MORNING WILL BE A VERY STRONG LOW LEVEL JET MOVING ALONG THE SOUTH
COAST FROM 08Z TO ABOUT 12-15Z. THIS WILL CREATE LLWS AT BOS/PVD/HYA
AND ACK. THIS LOW LEVEL JET WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY A WIND SHIFT /WARM
FRONT/ TO SOUTH AT THE SURFACE. TSTMS ARE POSSIBLE ALONG THIS
BOUNDARY AND SOUTHWARD FROM 08Z-15Z. THEREFORE HAVE INCLUDED CB AT
PVD/HYA AND ACK. CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO INCLUDE TSTM IN
PREVAILING OR TEMPO GROUP. WILL HAVE TO MONITOR RADAR CLOSELY IN THE
08Z-15Z TIME FRAME.
THIS AFTERNOON...
LOW PRES WILL LIFT NORTH OF THE REGION BY MIDDAY WITH IMPROVING
CONDITIONS FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST. WE SHOULD SEE CONDITIONS
IMPROVE FROM IFR TO MVFR TO VFR BY SUNSET. MIDDAY WILL ALSO BE THE
TIMEFRAME FOR A WIND SHIFT TO THE NORTHWEST AS THE LOW LIFTS NORTH
INTO MAINE.
TONIGHT...
VFR WITH DIMINISHING WINDS.
OUTLOOK...SAT THROUGH TUESDAY...
SAT-SUNDAY...VFR.
MONDAY...VFR CIGS. FRONT MAY APPROACH IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING
WITH MVFR VSBYS IN SCATTERED RAIN SHOWERS. MVFR TO IFR POSSIBLE
MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY AS FRONT SLOWLY MOVES ACROSS NEW ENGLAND.
&&
.MARINE...
WITH LOW PRESSURE WEST OF MUCH OF THE COASTAL WATERS AND WITH THE
STRONG SOUTH WINDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE EAST SIDE OF THE LOW...WE
CONTINUE TO CARRY GALE WATERS FOR MOST OF THE WATERS...AND SMALL
CRAFTS FOR BOSTON HARBOR AND NARRA BAY. AS THE LOW MOVES OFF AND
WINDS SHIFT TO WEST...THESE WINDS SHOULD DIMINISH THIS AFTERNOON AND
TONIGHT. FORECAST SEAS REACH 16-18 FEET ON THE SOUTHERN WATERS THIS
MORNING...THEN SUBSIDE THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT BUT WILL REMAIN
ABOVE 5 FEET ON MUCH OF THE WATERS THROUGH TONIGHT.
OUTLOOK...SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...
SATURDAY...NW WINDS WILL REMAIN AT SMALL CRAFT CRITERIA WITH 25-30
KT GUSTS. SEAS WILL SUBSIDE...BUT REMAIN ABOVE SCA LEVELS ON THE
OUTER WATERS.
SATURDAY NIGHT-SUNDAY NIGHT...DIMINISHING WINDS AND SEAS AS HIGH
PRESSURE MOVES OVERHEAD.
MONDAY-TUESDAY...INCREASING SWLY FLOW LATE MONDAY INTO TUESDAY
MORNING AS COLD FRONT APPROACHES. GUSTS AROUND 30 KT AND BUILDING
SEAS. FRONT CROSSES THE WATERS EARLY TUESDAY WITH WINDS SHIFTING NW.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
FLOOD WARNINGS ARE IN EFFECT FOR SIGNIFICANT URBAN FLOODING UNTIL
630 AM ALONG PROVIDENCE TO BOSTON CORRIDOR...AND UNTIL 1015 AM
FOR NORTHERN CT AND SPRINGFIELD MA.
FLOOD WARNING ALSO ISSUED FOR MINOR FLOODING ALONG PAWTUXET RIVER AT
CRANSTON RI WHERE LATEST NERFC FORECAST BRINGS ITS OVER FLOOD STAGE
BY 3 AM...CRESTING ABOUT A FOOT OVER FLOOD STAGE THIS MORNING...THEN
BACK BELOW FLOOD STAGE BY TONIGHT. OTHER FORECAST POINTS ARE FORECAST
TO REMAIN WITHIN THEIR BANKS...AS ARE OTHER SMALLER STREAMS. WE ARE
KEEPING AN EYE ON THE SUDBURY RIVER AT SAXONVILLE MA AND ASSABET
RIVER AT MAYNARD MA WHICH WILL CREST NEAR FLOOD STAGE EARLY THIS
AFTERNOON.
RAINFALL TOTALS OF 2 TO 4 INCHES EXPECTED. FOCUS OF HEAVIEST RAIN
WILL BE ALONG CT RIVER VALLEY THROUGH MID MORNING.
NERFC FORECASTS ALSO SHOW LOWER REACHES OF CT RIVER /HARTFORD TO
MIDDLETOWN/ APPROACHING FLOOD STAGE EARLY SAT MORNING. THIS WILL BE
RE EVALUATED BY DAY SHIFT BUT RIGHT NOW WORST CASE SCENARIO WOULD BE
FOR MINOR FLOODING.
&&
.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
WILL BE ISSUING A COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY FOR THE SOUTH COAST OF RI
AND SOUTHEAST MA...AS WE EXPECT MINOR COASTAL FLOODING ACROSS THIS
AREA. THE MOST LIKELY AREA FOR MINOR TIDAL FLOODING WILL BE
NARRAGANSETT AND BUZZARDS BAYS...AS A 3-5 HR SOUTHERLY GALE WILL
COINCIDE WITH A HIGH ASTRONOMICAL TIDE AT APPROXIMATELY 7 AM. THESE
SOUTHERLY GALES WILL COMBINE WITH MODEST PRES FALLS TO GENERATE A
1-1.5 FT STORM SURGE ACROSS THE SOUTH COAST. IN ADDITION...10-15 KT
SEAS ARE EXPECT ONTOP OF THE SURGE JUST OFFSHORE. AS OF 3 AM THE
GFS/ET STORM SURGE MODEL IS TOO LOW WITH ITS SURGE ALONG THE SOUTH
COAST. THE NGM SURGE IS MUCH BETTER.
AS FOR EAST COASTAL MA...HIGH TIDE IS ABOUT 3 HRS LATER...OCCURRING
AROUND 10 AM. BY 7 AM THE GREATEST PRES FALLS ARE WELL NORTH OF THE
REGION OVER MAINE. THIS WILL LIKELY RESULT IN SURFACE WINDS SHIFTING
TO THE NORTHWEST AT THE TIME OF HIGH TIDE. THIS WILL REDUCE THE SURGE
AND WAVE ACTION GIVEN THE OFFSHORE WIND COMPONENT. IN ADDITION...THE
ONSET OF PRES RISES AT 10 AM WILL MINIMIZE SURGE AS WELL. WE ARE
EXPECTING A 0.5 TO 1.0 SURGE FROM SALISBURY SOUTHWARD TO PLYMOUTH.
ALSO...WITH THE LOW TAKING AN INLAND TRACK...THE STRONGEST SURFACE
WINDS WILL BE FOCUSED ACROSS RI AND SOUTHEAST MA...REDUCING THE RISK
OF COASTAL FLOODING ACROSS EASTERN MA COASTLINE.
SO IN A NUTSHELL...THERE COULD BE SOME MINOR COASTAL FLOODING ALONG
THE EASTERN MA COASTLINE /INCLUDING PLUM ISLAND/ GIVEN THE HIGH
ASTRONOMICAL TIDES/SMALL SURGE AND SEAS OF 5-8 FT...BUT THERE IS A
HIGHER LIKELYHOOD OF WIDESPREAD MINOR COASTAL FLOODING ALONG THE
SOUTH COAST. THUS...WILL FOCUS THE COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY ALONG THE
SOUTH COAST...ESPECIALLY FOR NARR AND BUZZARD BAYS.
