Flash Flood in New Hampshire, July 2 to 3, 2013

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
709 PM EDT TUE JUL 2 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
HIT AND MISS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE INTO THE
WEEKEND...ESPECIALLY INTERIOR. INCREASINGLY HOT AND HUMID WEATHER
WILL PERSIST INTO NEXT WEEK AS HIGH PRESSURE BACKS IN FROM THE
WESTERN ATLANTIC. A HEAT WAVE IS LIKELY ACROSS PORTIONS OF SNE
STARTING THU OR FRI AND LASTING INTO NEXT WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/...
7 PM UPDATE...SHOWERS HAVE BECOME MORE NUMEROUS ACROSS SOUTHERN
NEW HAMPSHIRE AND NORTHEAST MASSACHUSETTS THIS EVENING. THERE ARE
TWO SEPARATE AREAS OF STORMS. ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE...THE
STORMS ARE STRONGER AND HAVE POTENTIAL FOR LIGHTNING...HEAVY
RAIN...AND FLOODING. THE STORMS IN NORTHEASTERN MASSACHUSETTS ARE
BEHIND THE BACK DOOR FRONT WHICH IS EVIDENT ON RADAR. THE BACK
DOOR FRONT HAS MOVED FARTHER INLAND THAN ANTICIPATED AND STRETCHES
FROM ROUGHLY LEOMINSTER THROUGH WALPOLE...BROCKTON...AND DOWN TO
PLYMOUTH. THESE SHOWERS HAVE BEEN MAINLY BRIEF...LOW TOPPED
SHOWERS WITH NO LIGHTNING IN THEM. THE STORMS ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW
HAMPSHIRE ARE ON THE THETA-E RIDGE AXIS AND WILL LIKELY SUSTAIN
THEMSELVES A WHILE LONGER BEFORE DYING DOWN LATE THIS EVENING. THE
SHOWERS ACROSS NORTHEASTERN MASSACHUSETTS SHOULD DIMINISH WITH
SUNSET.

4 PM UPDATE...
MLCAPES AROUND 1500 J/KG WITH AROUND 30 KT OF EFFECTIVE SHEAR SO
STILL EXPECTING SCT SHOWERS/TSTMS TO DEVELOP ACROSS INTERIOR SNE
WITH LOW LEVEL THETA-E RIDGE AXIS FAVORING N CT AND W MA. BACKDOOR
FRONT WHICH HAS SLIPPED SOUTH ALONG THE NE MA COAST COULD ALSO ACT
AS A FOCUS FOR A FEW STORMS ACROSS E MA. LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL
REMAINS THE PRIMARY THREAT BUT THERE IS ENOUGH SHEAR TO SUPPORT A
FEW ORGANIZED STORMS WITH ROTATING UPDRAFTS IN THIS TROPICAL
ENVIRONMENT WITH LOW LCL HEIGHTS

TONIGHT...CONVECTION IS EXPECTED TO LINGER INTO THE EVENING THEN
IT SHOULD DIE DOWN. HOWEVER...LOW LEVEL JET LIFTING N INTO SNE
WILL BRING INCREASING MOISTURE TRANSPORT. ELEVATED INSTABILITY IS
MARGINAL BUT CANT RULE OUT A FEW SHOWERS OR A THUNDERSTORM DURING
ANY TIME OVERNIGHT. AREAS OF FOG SHOULD REMAIN CONFINED TO THE S
COAST AS BL FLOW VEERS TO THE WSW...BUT PATCHY FOG ALSO POSSIBLE
ACROSS NE MA N OF THE FRONT. WARM AND HUMID NIGHT WITH MINS UPPER
60S TO LOWER 70S...EXCEPT LOW TO MID 60S NE MA AND SE NH ON THE
COOL SIDE OF THE BOUNDARY. THIS BOUNDARY IS FORECAST TO LIFT BACK
TO THE NORTH BY LATER TONIGHT OR WED MORNING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM WEDNESDAY/...
THE BACKDOOR FRONT WILL LIFT TO THE NORTH DURING THE
MORNING...OTHERWISE SW FLOW WILL PREVAIL AROUND SUBTROPICAL RIDGE
OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC. ANOTHER SHORTWAVE ROTATING AROUND THE
PERIPHERY OF THE RIDGE AND INTO SNE WILL BRING MORE SCT
SHOWERS/TSTMS TO SNE...MAINLY INTERIOR WHERE BEST INSTABILITY.
CAPES 1000-1500 J/KG BUT DEEP LAYER SHEAR WILL BE 20-25 KT WHICH
IS CONSIDERABLY LESS THAN RECENT DAYS SO SEVERE WEATHER NOT
ANTICIPATED AT THIS TIME. LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE THE MAIN
THREAT AS TROPICAL AIRMASS REMAINS WITH PWATS NEAR 2" AND
DEWPOINTS AROUND 70.

WITH BL FLOW FROM A W/SW DIRECTION AND A BIT LESS MOISTURE WE
EXPECT MORE SUNSHINE ESPECIALLY IN THE AFTERNOON. 850 MB TEMPS
16-17C SO MAXES SHOULD REACH WELL INTO THE 80S. A FEW LOCATIONS
COULD REACH 90 WITH SUFFICIENT SUN BUT DID NOT GO THIS WARM YET
AS FULL SUN NOT LIKELY.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
HIGHLIGHTS...

* POTENTIAL FOR 5-6 DAY HEAT WAVE BEGINNING ON INDEPENDENCE DAY
* SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE EACH DAY

THERE IS GOOD GENERAL AGREEMENT AMONGST THE MODELS THROUGH MUCH
OF THE LONG TERM. THERE ARE SOME MODEL DISCREPANCIES REGARDING THE
STRENGTH AND EXTENT OF AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OVER THE EASTERN U.S.
THROUGH MUCH OF THE LONG TERM. ULTIMATELY THIS WILL AFFECT THE
WEATHER IN THIS AREA MAINLY IN WHERE AND WHEN SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ARE ABLE TO DEVELOP. THE CONSENSUS IS WITH THE GFS
AND ECMWF ENSEMBLES WHICH HAVE THE UPPER RIDGE BUILDING
NORTHWESTWARD INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND FOR INDEPENDENCE DAY AND
THEN GRADUALLY SINKING SOUTHWARD THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE
FORECAST PERIOD. THIS HAS BEEN A DIFFICULT PATTERN TO BREAK DOWN
AND CHANGE SO AM HESITANT IN HAVING IT BREAK DOWN AS QUICKLY AS
THE OPERATIONAL MODELS HAVE. THE GFS KEEPS ENOUGH RIDGING OVER
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND TO KEEP LOW PRESSURE SYSTEMS TRAVELING
THROUGH SOUTHERN CANADA AS OPPOSED TO THROUGH SOUTHERN NEW
ENGLAND. MUCH OF THE UNCERTAINTY IN THE LONG TERM RESTS IN HOW
QUICKLY THIS BLOCKING PATTERN BREAKS DOWN AND THEN IN THE TIMING
OF THE INDIVIDUAL SHORTWAVES THAT ROTATE AROUND THE TOP OF THE
RIDGE.

OVERALL...AM EXPECTING SUMMER LIKE TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 80S TO
LOWER 90S THROUGH MUCH OF THE FORECAST PERIOD.  WITH THAT...WE ARE
LOOKING AT POTENTIALLY HAVING A 5 TO 6 DAY LONG HEAT WAVE.  AT THIS
POINT...THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR HEAT INDICES TO REACH INTO THE 100S
WITH 70 DEGREE DEWPOINTS AROUND.  HOWEVER...THESE TEMPS WILL LARGELY
DEPEND ON THE AMOUNT OF CLOUD COVER EACH DAY AND WHETHER ANY SHOWERS
OR THUNDERSTORMS AFFECT ANY PARTICULAR AREA.  THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EACH DAY IN THE LONG TERM WITH PLENTY OF
MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY AVAILABLE.  HOWEVER...THIS ACTIVITY ON WILL
LARGELY DEPEND ON THE TIMING OF SHORTWAVES MOVING OVER THE UPPER
RIDGE.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

LOW...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT.
MODERATE...30 TO 60 PERCENT.
HIGH...GREATER THAN 60 PERCENT.

MODERATE CONFIDENCE.

TONIGHT...EXPECT IFR/LIFR CIGS TO EXPAND ALONG THE COASTAL PLAIN
WITH A MIX OF MVFR/IFR CIGS ELSEWHERE. IFR/LIFR FOG SHOULD BE
CONFINED TO THE S COAST. -SHRA/TSRA CONTINUES THROUGH 03Z ACROSS
SW NH/W MA/N CT.

WEDNESDAY...IFR/LIFR TO START SHOULD IMPROVE TO VFR BY LATE
MORNING AS LOW LEVEL MOISTURE MIXES OUT WITH W/SW FLOW. SCT
SHRA/TSRA EXPECTED IN THE AFTERNOON IN THE INTERIOR WHICH MAY
PRODUCE BRIEF MVFR/IFR.

KBOS TERMINAL...MODERATE CONFIDENCE. BACKDOOR FRONT HAS PUSHED
WELL TO THE S AND EXPECT IFR CONDITIONS TO DEVELOP SHORTLY AS
LOWER CIGS MOVE DOWN THE COAST. PATCHY FOG IS POSSIBLE AS WELL.
THE FRONT SHOULD LIFT BACK TO THE N AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH WIND SHIFT
TO SW AND IMPROVING CONDITIONS.

KBDL TERMINAL...MODERATE CONFIDENCE. EXPECT MAINLY MVFR CIGS
THROUGH TONIGHT...IMPROVING WED.

OUTLOOK...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...

MODERATE CONFIDENCE.  MAINLY VFR.  THERE IS A LOW TO MODERATE
PROBABILITY OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AND ACCOMPANYING
MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS EACH AFTN/EVE. FOG IS LIKELY TO DEVELOP MOST
NIGHTS...WITH THE HIGHEST PROBABILITY OF THIS HAPPENING ALONG THE
SOUTH COAST. THIS WILL LIMIT CIGS AND VSBYS TO IFR/MVFR AT TIMES.

&&

.MARINE...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...

LOW...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT.
MODERATE...30 TO 60 PERCENT.
HIGH...GREATER THAN 60 PERCENT.

HIGH CONFIDENCE.

PERSISTENT SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL MAINTAIN 4 TO 5 FOOT SEAS OVER THE
SOUTHERN OUTER WATERS AND RI SOUND TONIGHT...BUT SUBSIDING DURING
WED. A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR HAZARDOUS SEAS CONTINUES INTO
WEDNESDAY. WINDS WILL REMAIN BELOW 20 KNOTS. AREAS OF FOG WILL
BRING REDUCED VSBYS TONIGHT.

OUTLOOK...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...

MODERATE CONFIDENCE THROUGH THE PERIOD.

PERSISTENT WEST TO SOUTHWEST WINDS AND LINGERING SWELL WILL ALLOW
SEAS OF 5+ FT TO CONTINUE PARTICULARLY OVER THE OCEAN WATERS SOUTH
AND SOUTHEAST OF SRN NEW ENGLAND. WINDS SHOULD REMAIN BELOW SMALL
CRAFT THRESHOLDS SAVE FOR THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS
SURROUNDING CAPE COD AND THE ISLANDS ON THU AND FRI...WHERE A FEW
GUSTS APPROACHING 25 KT ARE POSSIBLE.

OTHERWISE...SOME OVERNIGHT FOG AND STRATUS MAY CAUSE OCCASIONAL
REDUCTIONS IN VISIBILITY.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
ANY SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH TONIGHT HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO
BRING LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS WITH AREAS OF URBAN AND POOR
DRAINAGE FLOODING...AND QUICK RISES ON A FEW OF THE FLASHIER
STREAMS. THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH IS IN EFFECT UNTIL WEDNESDAY
MORNING IN RECOGNITION OF THIS POTENTIAL.
