NWS Boston/Norton, MA wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 25, 5:51 PM EST, 1 hour 54 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA 651 PM EDT WED JUN 25 2014 .SYNOPSIS... SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE INTO SOUTHERN NH...NORTHWEST MA AND NORTHERN CT THIS EVENING...THEN AFFECT MAINLY RHODE ISLAND AND EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS THURSDAY AS A COLD FRONT CROSSES THE REGION. DRY WEATHER WITH SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES AND LOWER HUMIDITY LEVELS ARRIVES THU NIGHT AND CONTINUES THROUGH THE WEEKEND. VERY WARM AND HUMID AIR RETURNS EARLY NEXT WEEK. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/... 7 PM UPDATE... MID LEVEL DRY AIR OVER SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND MUCH OF TODAY PRECLUDED CONVECTION FROM FIRING. NOW THIS DRY AIR IS BEGINNING TO EXIT THE REGION WITH THE BACK EDGE ACROSS WESTERN MA INTO SOUTHWEST NH. THIS IS WHERE THE MID LEVEL CAP IS WEAKER AND ERODING...ALONG UPSTREAM CONVECTION TO SUSTAIN ITSELF AS IT ENTERS WESTERN MA AND SOUTHWEST NH. HOWEVER WITH SOLAR HEATING WANING AS SUNSET APPROACHES ALONG WITH MARGINAL SHEAR AND WEAK MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES...EXPECTING INTENSITY OF CONVECTION TO WEAKEN OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL HOURS. MAIN CONCERN WILL BE HEAVY RAIN AND LOCALIZED FLOODING AS MARGINAL INSTABILITY COMBINES WITH WEAK FORCING AND PWATS APPROACHING 2 INCHES. THIS ACTIVITY WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE SLOWLY EAST INTO CT/CENTRAL MA OVERNIGHT BUT WEAKEN AT THE SAME TIME. PREVIOUS FORECAST CAPTURES THIS DETAILS NICELY SO NO MAJOR CHANGES WITH THIS FORECAST UPDATE. LOW CLOUDS/STRATUS HAS ALMOST COMPLETELY ERODED ALONG THE SOUTH COAST. THIS TREND WILL CONTINE INTO EARLY THIS EVENING BUT LIKELY RETURN LATER TONIGHT AS BLYR COOLS. THUS EXPECT PATCHY DENSE FOG TOWARD MORNING. IT WILL BE A WARM AND MUGGY NIGHT AS DEW PTS ARE ALREADY 70 DEGS ALONG THE SOUTH COAST WITH L70S UPSTREAM ACROSS NJ/NYC AND LONG ISLAND. EARLIER DISCUSSION BELOW. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT STRETCHED ACROSS NEW YORK STATE AND NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND. MOST OF THESE STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN NORTH OF ROUTE 2 INTO SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON. AS THE FRONT APPROACHES TONIGHT...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE FURTHER EAST INTO THE REGION. THIS FRONT IS VERY SLOW MOVING AND WILL TAKE MUCH OF TONIGHT INTO TOMORROW TO GET THROUGH SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND. FOR TONIGHT...THE LARGEST THREAT IS EXPECTED TO BE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL. PWATS ARE ALREADY UP TO 1.8 INCHES ACROSS THE NORTHWESTERN ZONES AND ARE EXPECTED TO GET UP TO 2.0 INCHES OVERNIGHT. WHILE WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAIN IS NOT EXPECTED...WHERE STRONGER STORMS MOVE THROUGH AND WHERE STORMS TRAIN...THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR SOME URBAN AND POOR DRAINAGE FLOODING. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE FOCUSED LARGELY ACROSS THE NORTHWESTERN HALF OF THE AREA THROUGH MIDNIGHT AND SHIFTS EASTWARD AFTER MIDNIGHT. DEWPOINTS ARE IN THE MID TO UPPER 60S AND INCHING TOWARDS 70. WITH DEWPOINTS THAT HIGH...TEMPERATURES ARE NOT GOING TO COOL OFF MUCH OVERNIGHT...SO EXPECT OVERNIGHT LOWS IN THE UPPER 60S AND LOW 70S. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/... SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE...MAINLY ACROSS EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS AND RHODE ISLAND AS THE FRONT CONTINUES TO SLOWLY MAKE ITS WAY ACROSS THE REGION. SHEAR VALUES REMAIN IN THE 25 TO 30 KT RANGE AND DESPITE OVERCAST SKIES TO START THE DAY...WITH 70 DEGREE DEWPOINTS IN PLACE...THERE WILL BE ENOUGH MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY FOR A FEW STRONG TO EVEN SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE EASTERN ZONES. THE MOST LIKELY TIME FOR STORMS WILL BE FROM MID-MORNING TO MID-AFTERNOON. WHILE THE GREATEST IMPACT IS STILL LIKELY TO BE FROM HEAVY RAINFALL WITH PWATS REMAINING HIGH...STRONG GUSTY WINDS ARE ALSO POSSIBLE. PRECIP WILL COME TO AN END FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE DAY WITH SHOWERS CONTINUING ON THE CAPE AND ISLANDS THE LONGEST. CLOUD COVER WILL LIMIT TEMPERATURES A BIT...BUT GIVEN WE ARE STARTING OUT IN THE 70S...HIGHS WILL CLIMB EASILY INTO THE LOW TO MID 80S. && .LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... HIGHLIGHTS... * DRY AND MUCH LESS HUMID FRIDAY * DRY AND SEASONABLY WARM THIS WEEKEND WITH COMFORTABLE HUMIDITY * VERY WARM AND HUMID EARLY NEXT WEEK MODEL EVALUATION... GEFS AND ECENS ENSEMBLES IN VERY GOOD AGREEMENT ON THE LARGE SCALE FLOW THIS PERIOD ALONG WITH THE FINER DETAILS SUCH AS FRONTAL POSITIONS. THUS HAVE FOLLOWED THESE TWO DATASETS FOR THE BULK OF THIS FORECAST. THURSDAY NIGHT... ALL MODEL GUIDANCE IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT SURFACE FRONT/BOUNDARY WILL EXIT CAPE COD AND MOVE OFFSHORE EARLY IN THE EVENING...BRINGING AN END TO THE CONVECTIVE THREAT. TURNING MUCH LESS HUMID BEHIND THE COLD FRONT AS THE NIGHT PROGRESSES. FRIDAY... MID LEVEL TROUGH AXIS NOT OFFSHORE YET...HANGING BACK ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND. THUS PROBABLY ENOUGH CYCLONIC CURVATURE TO THE MID LEVEL FLOW TO YIELD SOME AFTERNOON CU/SCU. ALTHOUGH COLUMN APPEARS TOO DRY AND THE LACK OF ANY INSTABILITY TO YIELD THE RISK OF AN AFTERNOON SHOWER. HOWEVER ALL MODEL GUIDANCE GENERATES SOME LIGHT QPF OVER THE HUDS VLY OF NY INTO WESTERN CT/MA. THEREFORE WILL LIMIT POPS TO SLIGHT CHANCE FOR A SPOT AFTERNOON SHOWER. THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH PREVIOUS FORECAST. MODEL SOUNDINGS SUGGEST BLYR MIXING NEAR 850 MB WITH TEMPS AT THIS LEVEL AROUND +12C. THIS WILL YIELD MAX TEMPS IN THE UPPER 70S TO L80S ALONG WITH COMFORTABLE HUMIDITY AS DEW PTS LOWER INTO THE 50S. SATURDAY AND SUNDAY... CORE OF THE DRY/COOLER AIRMASS SETTLES OVER NEW ENGLAND FRI NIGHT AND SAT. HIGH PRES OVERHEAD AND A DRY AIRMASS RESULTS IN GOOD RADIATIONAL COOLING WITH TEMPS BEFORE SUNRISE SAT IN THE U40S AND L50S. NOT AS COOL IN THE URBAN CENTERS WITH LOWS 55-60. STRONG LATE JUN SUN WILL QUICKLY WARM AIRMASS INTO THE LOW AND MID 80S...COOLER ALONG THE COAST WITH AFTERNOON SEABREEZES. VERY COMFORTABLE WITH DEW PTS REMAINING IN THE 50S. SUBSIDENCE ASSOCIATED WITH THE HIGH WILL PROVIDE DRY WEATHER. AS FOR SUNDAY MID LEVEL RIDGE AXIS REMAINS WEST OF NEW ENGLAND ACROSS THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES. THIS WILL YIELD ANTICYCLONIC FLOW OVER THE REGION SUPPORTING DRY WEATHER. STRONG JUN SUN CONTINUES TO WARM AIRMASS WITH 850 TEMPS CLIMBING TO ABOUT +14C. THIS WILL TRANSLATE TO HIGHS IN THE MU80S...WARMEST TEMPS INTERIOR NORTHEAST MA WITH COOLEST TEMPS ALONG THE SOUTH COAST AS HIGH PRES SLIPS SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND. THIS MAY RESULT IN A SUFFICIENT SSW PGRAD TO OFFSET ANY SEABREEZES FROM PLYMOUTH MA NORTHWARD TO THE NH BORDER. THUS COULD BE VERY WARM AT BEACHES ALONG THE EASTERN MA COAST. STILL COMFORTABLE WITH DEW PTS IN THE MU50S. EARLY NEXT WEEK... SUBTROPICAL RIDGE BRIEFLY BUILDS NORTHEAST INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND EARLY NEXT WEEK. SOME INTERIOR LOCATIONS MAY HIT 90 AS GEFS 925 TEMPS SOAR TO AROUND +22C. COOLER SOUTH COAST GIVEN SSW WINDS. IT WILL BE NOTICEABLY MORE HUMID WITH DEW PTS IN THE 60S. SUBTROPICAL RIDGE SHOULD PROVIDE MAINLY DRY WEATHER MON AND POSSIBLY INTO TUE BEFORE THE NEXT NORTHERN STREAM TROUGH ARRIVES SOMETIME MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. THIS WILL YIELD A RISK OF SHOWERS/TSTMS ALONG WITH A TREND TOWARD MORE SEASONABLE TEMPS AND LOWER HUMIDITY MID TO LATE NEXT WEEK. && .AVIATION /00Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS... LOW...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT. MODERATE...30 TO 60 PERCENT. HIGH...GREATER THAN 60 PERCENT. 7 PM UPDATE... STRATUS/LOW CLOUDS HAVE ALMOST ERODED ALONG THE SOUTH COAST WITH CIGS LIFTING TO BKN010-015. THUS VFR FOR MOST LOCATIONS THIS EVENING BUT THEN LOWERING TO MVFR AND IFR TOWARD MORNING AS FOG BECOMES WIDESPREAD AND LOCALLY DENSE. TSTMS IN WESTERN NEW ENGLAND AND EASTERN NY WILL WEAKEN AS THEY TRACK ENE OVERNIGHT. HOWEVER LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN REMAINS POSSIBLE. EARLIER DISCUSSION BELOW. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TONIGHT...MODERATE CONFIDENCE. MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS WILL OVERSPREAD THE REGION IN LOW CLOUDS AND PATCHY FOG. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL AFFECT THE INTERIOR...BUT SHOULD PROGRESS TOWARDS THE COASTAL PLAIN AFTER 06Z.

THURSDAY...MODERATE CONFIDENCE. SEAS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN BELOW 5 FEET. HOWEVER...AS THE FRONT STARTS TO MOVE OVER THE WATERS /PARTICULARLY EAST OF BOSTON/ DURING THE AFTERNOON...WINDS MAY GUST TO NEAR 25 KTS ON THE WATERS AS THEY TRANSITION FROM SOUTHWEST TO A MORE NORTHERLY DIRECTION. IN ADDITION...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE OVER THE WATERS...REDUCING VISIBILITIES AND RESULTING IN STRONG GUSTY WINDS AND HEAVY RAIN. OUTLOOK...THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY... THU NIGHT...BRIEF BURST OF N WINDS 20-25 KT GUSTS POSSIBLE WITH THE FRONTAL PASSAGE THU EVENING. THIS WILL YIELD CHOPPY/STEEP SEAS ESPECIALLY ACROSS EASTERN MA WATERS.
