AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
350 PM EDT SAT SEP 27 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE SOUTH OF LONG ISLAND COMBINED WITH THE BERMUDA HIGH PRES
CONTINUES A TROPICAL CONVEYOR BELT OF MOISTURE INTO SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND...YIELDING PERIODIC VERY HEAVY RAIN THIS AFTERNOON INTO EARLY
SUNDAY IN THE INTERSTATE 95 CORRIDOR AS PRECURSOR EVENT TO THE NEARBY
PASSAGE OF TROPICAL STORM KYLE SUNDAY AFTERNOON. KYLE IS EXPECTED TO PASS
EAST OF NEW ENGLAND...POSSIBLY BRINGING A PERIOD OF STRONG WINDS AND
HEAVY RAIN TO CAPE COD NANTUCKET AND THE OUTER MASSACHUSETTS COASTAL
WATERS DURING THE DAYLIGHT HOURS SUNDAY. FOR THE LATEST INFORMATION ON
KYLE...VISIT THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER WEBSITE FOR DETAILS AS
WELL AS NWS TAUNTON HURRICANE LOCAL STATEMENTS ISSUED THIS EVENING.
DRY AND SEASONABLE WEATHER WILL RETURN EARLY NEXT WEEK...WITH THE
NEXT CHANCE OF RAIN ARRIVING AROUND MID WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 3 AM SUNDAY MORNING/...
12Z NAM ESSENTIALLY NOT USED EXCEPT A BIT THIS AFTN.

THIS FCST IS PRIMARILY A BLEND OF THE 12Z GFS/UKMET AS WELL AS 12Z
GFS ENS AND 09Z SREF.

PLS FOLLOW TPC ON PATH OF KYLE.

IN SNE THE FOCUS IS ON THE WSHIFT NE TO SE AS THE PRIMARY LIFT ZONE
FOR HEAVY RAIN TONIGHT IN A POSSIBLE PRE EVENT. PLS MONITOR SFC WIND
FCST WHOSE DIRECTIONS HAVE BEEN MODIFIED FROM THE 12Z MAVMOSGUIDE AND
CURRENT DATA.

18Z CHH AND OKX SOUNDINGS A SAY FOCUS ON THE I95 CORRIDOR WST-PVD-BOS
NBT AND 40 EITHER SIDE. FOR PRIMARY KYLE RAIN...THATS SUNDAY AND
PROBABLY JUST OFFSHORE BUT COULD CLIP E MASS.

PNS IS A COMPILATION OF THE ENTIRE EXPECTED 48-60 HR EVENT DESPITE A
12-15 HR LULL LAST NIGHT.

MAX PW NR OR JUST SE OF I95 COMBINED ONCOMING DIV OF Q
500-300MB...SOME INDICATIONS OF INSTABILITY ALOFT...SFC-BL WSHIFT
FORCING AND GENERALLY FAIRLY DEEP FGEN INDICATED THAT RFALL SHOULD BE
INTENSE AT TIMES TONIGHT NR I95. I SUSPECT FURTHER NE IN NE MASS BUT
IT MAY REVERT TO HEAVIER QPF IN THE TAN PVD WLY REGION OVERNIGHT.

T IS LOW PROB AND USED -1 SBLI FROM THE GFS 12Z FCST IN AN ATTEMPT TO
INCLUDE THIS SLIGHT CHC WORDING.

SWELLS DOWN TO 7 FT OUTER WATERS FOR THE TIME BEING AND AND ONLY 5 FT
AT MVY COASTAL OBS. DISPENSED WITH THE HIGH SRF /CFW/ ADVY. WE PROBABLY
WILL NEED IT AGAIN TOMORROW BUT THAT IS HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON KYLES
PATH AND PREFER THE MID SHIFT REEVALUATE. THE BIG ENVELOPE OF HIGH SWELLS
MAY SHIFT FURTHER EAST AND THE PRIMARY RISK ZONE MAY BE E MASS
BEACHES INSTEAD OF WAY BACK TO RI.

&&

.SHORT TERM /3 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...

SUNDAY...

KYLE IS THE FOCUS AS CNV ZONE IN SE MASS /SFC WSHIFT SE VS NE/ IS
MERGED WITH KYLES PRES GRADIENT AND LOSING ITS CHARACTERISTICS.
THEREFORE ITS HEAVY RAINS SHOULD SUBSIDE BY 14Z IN MOST OF MASS AS
R+ SHIELD FOCUSES NR KYLES PATH.

SMALL CHANCE ENOUGH SS AND HEATING IN THE AFTN FOR A BAND OF TSTMS CT
RVR VALLEY BUT LOW PROB.

SUN NIGHT...GFS MAV MOSA GUIDE FCST COMBINED WITH HPC QPF.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT EARLY THIS PERIOD WITH KYLE EXITING THE EASTERN
NEW ENGLAND WATERS SUNDAY EVENING. HOWEVER...A CHANCE OF SHOWERS
WILL LINGER SUN NIGHT AND INTO EARLY MON...AS MID LEVEL TROF AND
ASSOCIATED SURFACE COLD FRONT MOVE ACROSS THE REGION DURING THIS
TIME. BY MON AFTERNOON GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT THAT MEAN TROF AXIS AND
ASSOCIATED DEEP LAYER MOISTURE WILL BE OFFSHORE. THUS...DRY WEATHER
SHOULD RETURN TO THE REGION MON AFTERNOON. THIS DRY WEATHER AND
SEASONABLE TEMPS SHOULD LINGER INTO TUE AS SHORT WAVE RIDGING
DEVELOPS OVER THE REGION AHEAD OF NEXT TROF ENTERING THE GREAT
LAKES.

00Z MODEL GUIDANCE IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT THE ARRIVAL OF OCTOBER
WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY A HIGHLY AMPLIFIED PATTERN MID TO LATE NEXT
WEEK...WITH A LONG WAVE TROF SETTING UP ACROSS THE NORTHEAST. GOOD
MODEL AGREEMENT ON THE TIMING OF THE LEAD SHORT WAVE AND ASSOCIATED
COLD FRONT TO ARRIVE HERE IN THE TUE NIGHT - WED TIME FRAME.
THEREFORE...ABOVE AVERAGE CONFIDENCE ON A CHANCE OF SHOWERS HERE TUE
NIGHT INTO WED. THEREAFTER...MODELS DISAGREE ON THE TIMING AND
AMPLITUDE OF THE NEXT SHORT WAVE ROTATING THROUGH THE NORTHEAST
MEAN MID LEVEL TROF. HOWEVER THE OVERALL LARGE SCALE FLOW ACROSS NEW
ENGLAND THU AND FRI WILL BE A COOL AND UNSTABLE CYCLONIC FLOW. SO
EXPECTING MAINLY DRY WEATHER THU AND FRI WITH ISOLATED DIURNAL SHOWER
GIVEN COLD AIR ALOFT WITH MID LEVEL TROF OVERHEAD. COOLER THAN
NORMAL TEMPS EXPECTED AS BOTH 00Z GFS/ECMWF AND 00Z ENSEMBLES
SUGGEST 850 TEMPS COOLING TO ABOUT +4C THU AND THEN DOWN TO +2C FRI
THEREFORE THE HIGHER TERRAIN MAY ONLY SEE HIGHS FRI IN THE 50S

&&

.AVIATION /20Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
WIDESPREAD IFR CONDITIONS PERSISTING TONIGHT INTO SUN...POSSIBLY
IMPROVING TO MVFR/VFR CT VALLEY SUN AFTERNOON.

PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN WILL CONTINUE...HEAVIEST LIKELY TONIGHT ACROSS
EASTERN MA AND RI EXTENDING NWD INTO SE NH. LOW PROB OF TSTM
ALTHOUGH INDICES ARE MARGINAL AT BEST.

NIGHT BEHIND COLD FRONT.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
FOR STORM TOTALS...WE WILL CONTINUE TO ADD THE TWO OR THREE SEGMENT
EVENT...DESPITE THE 12-15 HOUR BREAK THAT HAS OCCURRED. THIS MAKES
BOOKKEEPING EASIER FOR THE FRI-SUN EVENT AND WE WILL ELABORATE IN
SUBSEQUENT PNSS REGARDING THE VALUED RECOVERY PERIOD AS RUNOFF FLOWS
OUT THE SYSTEM ALLOWING FOR RENEWED R+ ON OUR DOORSTEP.

FLS FOR URBAN SMALL STREAM FLOOD ADVY SEEMS TO BE WORKING WELL ATTM.
