AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
805 PM EDT WED JUN 8 2011
.SYNOPSIS...
NEAR RECORD HEAT IS LIKELY THURSDAY WITH A CHANCE OF STRONG TO
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS A COLD FRONT
MOVES INTO THE REGION. THIS FRONT WILL PUSH SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND ON
FRIDAY...BRINGING COOLER WEATHER INTO THE WEEKEND. ANOTHER LOW AND
FRONT MAY APPROACH SATURDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY...BRINGING UNSETTLED
WEATHER AND A COOL EASTERLY FLOW.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
CLUSTERS OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS...SOME WITH LARGE TREES DOWNED AND
UP TO 3 INCH DIAMETER HAIL IN EASTERN NY STATE...WILL BE WORKING
INTO S NH/W AND CENTRAL MA THROUGH 02Z-03Z. WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED AS
FAR E AS MIDDLESEX COUNTY /THOUGH FEEL THIS IS MAINLY FOR NW
MIDDLESEX/...UNTIL 03Z. CELLS HAVE BEEN TRENDING TO WEAKEN AS THEY
ARE MOVING OUT OF BERKSHIRE COUNTY...BUT ARE MOISTENING UP THE
AIRMASS FOR NEXT LINE MOVING INTO W VT WHICH COULD HELP SUSTAIN THE
ACCOMPANYING INSTABILITY.
SPC MESOANALYSIS SUGGESTING MLCAPES ON ORDER OF 3000-4000 J/KG
ASSOCIATED WITH THE SEVERE STORMS BETWEEN 23Z AND 00Z WITH EDGE OF
0-6KM SHEAR AROUND 30 KT. EXPECT BEST SHOT OF CONVECTION TO REACH
INTO S NH/W MA INTO N CENTRAL CT THROUGH 03Z-04Z.
HAVE UPDATED GRIDS AND ZONES TO INCREASE POPS TO HIGH CHANCE IN THE
WATCH AREA. THINK THIS CONVECTION SHOULD MELT AWAY AFTER MIDNIGHT
BEFORE THE NEXT ROUND STARTS TO APPROACH AHEAD AND WITH THE FRONT.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
THURSDAY...
VERY HOT DAY EXPECTED WITH TEMPS WARMER THAN TODAY...ESPECIALLY
ALONG THE COAST GIVEN WARMER START TO THE DAY AND STRONGER
WESTERLY FLOW WHICH SHOULD PRECLUDE SEABREEZES. MAV TEMPS ACCEPTED
WITH GIVES 95-100 DEGREES INTERIOR VALLEYS AND COASTAL
PLAIN...BUT A BIT COOLER HIGHER TERRAIN AND NEAR THE IMMEDIATE
SOUTH COAST WHERE A SW COMPONENT TO THE WIND EXPECTED BUT STILL
NEAR 90 HERE. DEWPOINTS MOSTLY IN THE 60S BUT MAY DROP A BIT IN
THE AFTERNOON WITH WEST FLOW AND BL MIXING WHICH WILL KEEP HEAT
INDICES FROM GETTING TOO HIGH. MAY SEE A FEW HOURS OF 100 DEGREE
HEAT INDICES ESPECIALLY CT VALLEY AND INTERIOR SE MA...BUT HELD
OFF ON HEAT ADVISORY FOR NOW AS IT IS MARGINAL AND PREFER TO LET
NEXT SHIFT GET ONE MORE LOOK.
PARAMETERS LOOK MORE FAVORABLE FOR SEVERE WEATHER THU AFTERNOON
INTO THE EVENING AS STRONG COLD FRONT MOVES SWD FROM N NEW ENG
PROVIDING A FOCUS FOR CONVECTION. VERY UNSTABLE AIRMASS DEVELOPS
AGAIN WITH MLCAPES AROUND 2000 J/KG SO EXPECT A LINE OF STORMS TO
DEVELOP TO THE NORTH AND WEST AHEAD OF THE FRONT WHICH THEN MOVES
INTO SNE DURING THE AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING.
0-6KM SHEAR INCREASES TO 35-40 KT WHICH IS SUFFICIENT FOR
ORGANIZED SVR WX. UNIDIRECTIONAL SHEAR PROFILE FAVORS MORE
MULTICELLULAR CONVECTION WITH LINE SEGMENTS FORCED BY APPROACHING
FRONT. DAMAGING WIND GUSTS WILL BE PRIMARY CONCERN WITH ANY TSTMS
THU WITH LARGE HAIL A SECONDARY THREAT GIVEN HIGH WBZ VALUES. LOW
LEVEL WINDS MORE WESTERLY SO 0-1KM HELICITY NOT IMPRESSIVE WHICH
SUGGESTS LESS THREAT FOR ROTATING STORMS. TIMING OF TSTMS APPEAR
TO BE AFTER 18Z NW ZONES REACHING THE S COAST IN THE EARLY
EVENING.
THU NIGHT...
EXPECT SCT SHOWERS/TSTMS TO BE ONGOING IN THE EVENING ESPECIALLY
SOUTH OF THE PIKE INVOF THE FRONT...THEN DECREASING ACTIVITY
OVERNIGHT AS THE FRONT PUSHES TO THE SOUTH. COOLER AND DRIER AIR
WILL MOVE INTO SNE OVERNIGHT AS WINDS SHIFT TO THE N/NE.
&&
.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
MEDIUM RANGE MODELS START OFF IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT AT LEAST WITH
THE OVERALL UPPER LEVEL PATTERN. THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGHS ON BOTH
COASTS TEND TO FLATTEN...YIELDING A NEARLY ZONAL UPPER FLOW THROUGH
ABOUT SATURDAY. HOWEVER...MODELS DIVERGE INTO THE WEEKEND WITH THE
TIMING OF A SHORT WAVE IN THE UPPER FLOW IN QUESTION...DEPENDING
UPON THE STRENGTH AND TIMING OF THIS SYSTEM. LEANED TOWARD THE EC
AND GFS ENSEMBLE MEANS FOR THIS FORECAST...AS EACH MODEL HANDLES
THIS SHORT WAVE AND ITS MOVEMENT ACROSS NEW ENGLAND DIFFERENTLY.
FRIDAY...MOST MODELS PUSH THE PASSING FRONT FAR ENOUGH OFFSHORE TO
BRING DRY AND COOLER CONDITIONS TO THE REGION. HOWEVER...THE FRONT
DOES APPEAR TO STALL S OF NEW ENGLAND...SO MAY SEE LINGERING CLOUDS
ALONG THE S COAST. ALSO KEPT SLIGHT CHANCE POPS GOING FOR N CENTRAL
AND NW CT. MAY ALSO SEE PATCHY FOG DEVELOP LATER FRI NIGHT ALONG THE
COAST. WILL BE A SEASONABLY MILD DAY WITH HIGHS MAINLY IN THE 70S.
SATURDAY...SOME DIVERGENCE IN MODEL SOLUTIONS HERE...BUT MOST TEND
TO START BRINGING THE FRONT TO THE S BACK AS A WARM FRONT. GFS IS
BEING MOST OPTIMISTIC IN BUILDING HIGH PRES ACROSS MAINE AND THE
COASTAL WATERS...WHILE MOST OTHERS BRING PRECIP BACK INTO THE REGION
FROM THE SW. WENT MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND BROUGHT LOW CHANCE POPS
INTO N CENTRAL MA AND THE WESTERN CT VALLEY OF MA. WILL ALSO START
TO SEE CLOUDS INCREASE FROM W-E DURING THE DAY. LIGHT ONSHORE WINDS
WILL KEEP TEMPS A BIT COOLER...ALONG WITH THE INCREASING CLOUDS.
SATURDAY NIGHT-MONDAY...TIMING OF WARM FRONT AND SUBSEQUENT
OCCLUSION/LOW DEVELOPMENT WILL BE DEPENDENT UPON TIMING AND STRENGTH
OF THE SHORT WAVE WORKING E OUT OF THE GREAT LAKES INTO SOUTHERN
QUEBEC AND NY STATE. HOWEVER...SOME MODELS DO TRY TO SLOW THIS
SYSTEM DOWN AS THE SHORT WAVE CUTS OFF BUT SLOWLY PROGRESSES. MODELS
HAVE HAD SOME CONSISTENCY WITH THIS...THOUGH TIMING IS STILL IN
QUESTION. WILL KEEP CHANCE POPS GOING AS THE OCCLUSION/FRONT SLOWLY
PUSHES THROUGH SOMETIME SUNDAY NIGHT OR EARLY MONDAY MORNING. MAY
START TO SEE SLOW IMPROVEMENT FROM W-E DURING MONDAY AFTERNOON.
HAVE CARRIED 40-50 PCT CHANCE POPS WITH THIS SYSTEM...AND ADDED
CHANCE TSTMS INTO THE FORECAST FOR SUNDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING...AS
THIS APPEARS TO BE BEST TIMING IN PUSHING THROUGH THE TRIPLE POINT/
FRONTAL SYSTEM. CONFIDENCE REMAINS LOW FOR THIS PORTION OF THE
FORECAST.
TUESDAY-WEDNESDAY...CUTOFF LOW MAY REMAIN ACROSS NORTHERN NEW
ENGLAND/SE QUEBEC DURING THIS TIMEFRAME...SO MAY SEE THREAT OF
WIDELY SCT SHOWERS MAINLY N OF THE MASS PIKE. CLOUDS MAY ALSO LINGER
ACROSS MOST OF THE REGION.

THREAT OF TSTMS DURING MID/LATE AFTERNOON AS COLD FRONT APPROACHES

TSTMS.
THURSDAY NIGHT...MEDIUM CONFIDENCE. CHANCE SHOWERS/TSTMS WITH
BRIEF MVFR/IFR POSSIBLE IN THE EVENING ESPECIALLY NEAR THE S COAST
AS THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH. PATCHY MVFR CIGS/VSBYS POSSIBLE LATE.
