AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAY ME
337 PM EDT SUN JUL 20 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
A QUASI-STATIONARY FRONTAL BOUNDARY REMAINS DRAPED ACROSS CENTRAL
NEW HAMPSHIRE AND SOUTHERN MAINE THIS AFTERNOON. LOW PRESSURE OVER
NORTHERN NEW YORK STATE WILL MOVE ALONG THIS FRONTAL BOUNDARY
TONIGHT. RAIN HAS ALREADY DEVELOPED AHEAD OF THIS BOUNDARY OVER
THE REGION AND WILL INCREASE TONIGHT IN BOTH AREAL COVERAGE AND
INTENSITY. THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BE SLOW TO LIFT OUT OF THE
AREA MONDAY AFTERNOON. AN ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL MOVE OFFSHORE
MONDAY EVENING...THEN BECOME STATIONARY SOUTH OF THE AREA TUESDAY
AND TUESDAY NIGHT. THE FRONT WILL RETURN NORTH AS A WARM FRONT
WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT...BRINGING ANOTHER CHANCE FOR HEAVY
RAIN. ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL APPROACH THE REGION THURSDAY AND
FRIDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
QUASI-STATIONARY BOUNDARY IN PLACE OVER THE FORECAST AREA THIS
AFTERNOON. THE BOUNDARY CUTS ACROSS THE REGION FROM THE WEST TO
EAST...EXTENDING FROM GRAFTON COUNTY IN NEW HAMPSHIRE TO SOUTHERN
SOMERSET COUNTY IN MAINE. THIS AREA HAS BEEN THE FOCUS FOR HEAVY
RAIN TO DEVELOP TODAY...AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE FOCUS
OVERNIGHT. LOW PRESSURE MOVING ALONG THIS BOUNDARY WILL EXIT NEW
YORK STATE THIS EVENING...THEN MOVE ACROSS NEW HAMPSHIRE AND MAINE
TONIGHT. HEAVIEST PRECIPITATION SHOULD BE FOCUSED OVER NORTHERN
SECTIONS OF THE CWA BETWEEN 00Z AND 06Z. LOCATIONS FURTHER SOUTH
WITH STILL SEE SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL...BUT NOT NEARLY AS INTENSE AS
OVER THE MOUNTAINS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MONDAY/...
WEAK SURFACE LOW WILL MOVE OUT OF MAINE INTO THE MARITIMES DURING
THE MORNING. THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY BEHIND THE LOW WILL REMAIN IN
PLACE ACROSS THE REGION...SAGGING FURTHER SOUTHWARD...CLOSER TO
THE COAST. HOWEVER...ANOTHER WEAK SURFACE LOW WILL FORM ON THE
FRONTAL BOUNDARY RIGHT BEHIND IT. LOW PRESSURE SHOULD FORM IN THE
MORNING HOURS OVER SOUTHERN VT/NH. THIS WILL BRING ANOTHER STRONG
SHOT OF PRECIPITATION TO THE CWA...ALTHOUGH THE HEAVIEST RAIN WILL
BE CLOSER TO THE COAST. NORTHERN AREAS WILL STILL SOME
RAINFALL...BUT NOT QUITE AS MUCH AS TONIGHT.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THE WEAK COLD FRONT SHOULD JUST CLEAR THE WATERS MONDAY EVENING
BEFORE COMING TO A STOP JUST SOUTH OF THE REGION. THE BEST CHANCE
OF SHOWERS WILL BE IN THE EVENING...AS THE MID LEVEL SUPPORT
EXITS. AFTER THIS...STRATUS/FOG WILL BECOME THE ISSUE FOR MONDAY
NIGHT. LOWS MONDAY NIGHT WERE BASED ON A MOS BLEND.

THE STRATUS AND FOG SHOULD LIFT TUESDAY MORNING. AFTER THIS...THE
QUESTION BECOMES CONVECTION. SCATTERED CONVECTION IS POSSIBLE...BUT
DEEP CONVECTION SEEMS UNLIKELY. MARGINAL INSTABILITY...ALONG WITH
WEAK MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND A DECREASING MID LEVEL WIND FIELD
SHOULD KEEP THE RAIN CHANCES IN THE CHANCE CATEGORY. LIMITED
SUNSHINE TUESDAY SHOULD KEEP HIGHS CLOSE TO THE MOS BLEND.

ANY CONVECTION SHOULD DIE OFF TUESDAY EVENING...AND THE LIGHT
ONSHORE FLOW SHOULD ALLOW THE STRATUS AND FOG TO COME BACK
ONSHORE...AT LEAST NEAR THE COAST. ONCE AGAIN...SINE THERE IS
LITTLE CHANGE IN THE AIRMASS...A MOS BLEND WAS USED FOR LOWS.

AFTER THIS...THE FORECAST CONFIDENCE DROPS TO BELOW NORMAL. THE
CLOSING MID LEVEL SYSTEM OVER ONTARIO AND WESTERN QUEBEC WILL BACK
THE MID LEVEL FLOW TO SOUTHERLY. THIS WILL BRING HIGHER PRECIPITABLE
WATER AIR BACK NORTH...OVER THE BOUNDARY IN PLACE. WHETHER THE
FRONT MOVES BACK NORTH OR REMAINS IN PLACE TO BE OVERRUN IS NOT
CLEAR.

THIS WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE AS TO WHETHER THE FOCUS FOR HEAVY RAIN
IN THE AIRMASS WOULD BE OVER THE FORECAST AREA OR JUST TO THE
WEST. AT THIS POINT...WILL MENTION SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS BUT
NOT MENTION HEAVY RAIN WITH THE QUESTIONS IN PLACE. IN ANY
CASE...IT APPEARS AS THOUGH THE BEST WARM AIR ADVECTION ENDS
WEDNESDAY NIGHT...WITH A FAIRLY DRY THURSDAY.

AS THE MID LEVEL LOW CLOSES...THE POSITION OF THE CLOSED SYSTEM
WILL DETERMINE WHEN THE NEXT COLD FRONT PASSES. THIS COULD BE
FRIDAY OR SATURDAY...AND THIS UNCERTAINTY HAS BEEN REFLECTED IN
THE FORECAST.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
SHORT TERM...HEAVY RAIN AND FOG WILL CAUSE AVIATION PROBLEMS
TONIGHT AND TOMORROW. KLEB HAS STRUGGLED TODAY TO IMPROVE BEYOND
LIFR CONDITIONS AND WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE ISSUES TONIGHT. OTHER
TAF SITES WILL ALSO HAVE ISSUES. EXPECT WIDESPREAD LIFR CONDITIONS
TO DEVELOP THIS EVENING AND PERSIST THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT.
CONDITIONS MAY IMPROVE A BIT ON MONDAY...BUT ABUNDANT LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE AND A SECONDARY LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL CAUSE PROBLEMS
AGAIN WITH BOTH VISIBILITY AND CEILINGS.

LONG TERM...
IFR/LIFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED MONDAY NIGHT AS A LIGHT SOUTHERLY
FLOW AHEAD OF THE WEAK FRONT ALLOWS STRATUS/FOG TO COME ASHORE
FROM THE GULF OF MAINE. THIS SHOULD SLOWLY LIFT TUESDAY...BUT
SINCE THE OVERALL LOW LEVEL FLOW DOES NOT CHANGE...THE PATTERN MAY
BE REPEATED TUESDAY NIGHT AND EARLY WEDNESDAY.

WARM AIR ADVECTION RAIN WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY COULD LEAD TO
WIDESPREAD IFR CONDITIONS.

&&

.MARINE...
SHORT TERM...EXPECT SOME FOG TO DEVELOP OVER THE WATERS TONIGHT
ALONG WITH THE HEAVY RAIN. NOT EXPECTING ANY FLAGS. SEAS WILL BE
INCREASING THROUGH THE SHORT TERM PERIOD...BUT SHOULD NOT REACH
SCA CRITERIA THROUGH TOMORROW AFTERNOON.

LONG TERM...
AS THE WEAK FRONT DROPS SOUTH ACROSS THE WATERS MONDAY EVENING...
THEN STALLS CLOSE TO THE WATERS...WINDS SHOULD BESS LESS THAN 15
KNOTS THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING. HOWEVER...SEAS MAY BE SLOW TO
DROP AS THE SWELL FROM CRISTOBAL AFFECTS THE WATERS MONDAY NIGHT
INTO TUESDAY NIGHT.

WINDS COULD INCREASE TO SMALL CRAFT LEVELS WEDNESDAY NIGHT IN THE
STRONG WARM AIR ADVECTION. HOWEVER...AS IS THE CASE IN MOST WARM
AIR ADVECTION SITUATIONS...THE DEPTH OF THE MIXED LAYER WILL
DETERMINE HOW MUCH MOMENTUM MIXES DOWN. FOR NOW...WILL KEEP WINDS
BELOW 25 KNOTS AND LET LATER FORECASTS PIN THIS DOWN.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
THE STATIONARY FRONT IN PLACE WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE FOCUS FOR
HEAVY RAIN TONIGHT AND MONDAY. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES WILL
INCREASE TO NEAR 200 PERCENT OF NORMAL (NEAR 2.00 INCHES) AHEAD OF
A WEAK SHORT WAVE IN THE NORTHERN STREAM. WHILE THE CONVECTION
SHOULD BE FAIRLY SHALLOW...IT WILL BE A WARM RAIN PROCESS (AND
FAIRLY EFFICIENT AT THAT).

SINCE THE HIGHER TERRAIN HAS BEEN THE FOCUS FOR HEAVY RAIN IN
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS THE PAST FEW DAYS...THIS AREA WAS PLACED
IN A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR TONIGHT AND MONDAY. FURTHER SOUTH....
SOME LOCATIONS COULD SEE 2 INCHES OF RAIN...BUT FLASH FLOOD
GUIDANCE NUMBERS ARE MUCH HIGHER...AND FLOODING SHOULD BE LESS
WIDESPREAD. THE THREAT SHOULD DIMINISH MONDAY AFTERNOON AS THE
SHALLOW FRONT DROPS SOUTH BEHIND THE SHORT WAVE.
