AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BURLINGTON VT
325 AM EDT SAT MAY 14 2005

FCST CHALLENGE IS PRECIP CHCS/TIMING...FOLLOWED BY TEMPS THROUGH
EARLY NEXT WEEK

.SYNOPSIS...
COMPLEX PATTERN CONTS TO EVOLVE ACRS THE EASTERN CONUS WITH
MID/UPPER LVL RIDGE OVER MID ATLANTIC/NE STATES AND DEVELOPING TROF
OVER THE WESTERN LAKES. THE COMBINATION OF WAA LIFT AND POTENT 5H
VORT IS ENHANCING CONVECTION ACRS THE OHIO VALLEY/WESTERN PA ATTM.
HOWEVER...TRW ACTIVITY IS DECREASING IN AREAL COVERAGE/INTENSITY AS
IT MOVES INTO RIDGE AND VERY DRY AIR AT THE SFC ACRS CENTRAL NY/PA
ATTM. MENAWHILE...ANOTHER STRONG 5H VORT LOCATED OVER NORTHERN
PLAINS WL CONT TO DROP SOUTH AND DIG MID/UPPER LVL TROF ACRS THE
CENTRAL GREAT LAKES. THIS WL HELP SET UP A PROLONGED PERIOD OF BELOW
NORMAL TEMPS AND SCT RW FROM TIME TO TIME.

OTHERWISE...SFC ANALYSIS PLACES LOW PRES NORTH OF DTW WITH A SFC
WARM FRNT EXTENDING FROM LOW PRES INTO WESTERN/CENTRAL NY ATTM WITH
SLOW MOVEMENT TO THE NORTH. RADAR TRENDS CONT TO SHOW THE CONVECTION
ACRS THE OHIO VALLEY DECREASING AS LLVL BECMG STABLE FROM THE LOSS
OF DAYTIME HEATING AND VERY DRY SFC DWPT POINTS. WL CONT TO MONITIOR
RADAR TRENDS FOR TIMING OF RW INTO SLV/NORTHERN NY THIS MORNING.
REGIONAL MOSICA SHOWS -RW FROM JUST WEST OF MSS INTO THE BUF AREA
ATTM WITH SLOW MOVEMENT TO THE EAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM (TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY)...
MID/UPPER LVL RIDGE SHIFTS EAST AS LLVL WAA LIFT/MOISTURE MOVES INTO
OUR FA FROM SW TO NE. THE 00Z NAM SHOWS GOOD 850-500MB Q-VECTOR
CONVERGENCE...ALNG WITH SOME 7H FGEN FORCING AND PWS APPROACHING
1.00 INCH. HOWEVER...MODELS SHOW INITIAL 5H VORT AND ASSOCIATED 7H
MOISTURE/LIFT FALLING APART ACRS NORTHERN NY AS IT INTERACTS WITH
RIDGE AND VERY LOW SFC DWPTS. ANOTHER 5H VORT ROUNDS TROF BASE AND
EJECTS INTO FA THIS AFTN ON SW FLOW ALOFT. THIS COMBINED WITH SOME
WAA LIFT WL MENTION HIGH CHC TO LOW LIKELY POPS MOST LOCATION.
PROGGED 85H TMEPS SUPPORT HIGHS WELL INTO THE 60S TO NEAR 70...BUT
WITH LIMITED MIXING POTENTIAL FROM CLOUDS/PRECIP WL MENTION TEMPS
U50S NE KINGDOM TO L60S ELSEWHERE. LARGE DISAGREEMENT AMONG
NUMBERICAL GUIDANCE WITH MAV SUGGESTING 60F AT BTV AND NAM SHOWINGS
A HIGH OF 70F. WL TREND TOWARD COOLER MAV GIVEN UPSTREAM TEMPS
YESTERDAY AND PROGGED RH FIELDS

TONIGHT-SUNDAY...MID/UPPER LVL TROF SLOWLY MOVES EAST INTO THE
CENTRAL GREAT LAKES AS SEVERAL EMBEDDED S/W'S ROTATE AROUND TROF
BASE. WL CONT TO MENTION CHC TO LIKELY POPS...BUT FEEL DURATION OF
PRECIP WL BE LIMITED BASED ON FORCING AND MOISTURE PROFILES. GIVEN
PLENTY OF CLOUDS AND SCT PRECIP EXPECT LIMITED DURINAL CHANGE IN
TEMPS SATURDAY NITE. SUNDAY...TROF CONTS TO IMPACT FA WITH PLENTY OF
MOISTURE AND LIFT. NAM 12 SHOWS SOME LLVL INSTABILITY DEVELOPING IN
THE CPV ON SUNDAY AFTN ASSOCIATED WITH SOME DAYTIME HEATING. SFC
BASED CAPES APPROACH 800 J/KG...ALONG WITH NEGATIVE LI'S...BUT FEEL
INSTABILITY IS OVERDONE BASED ON EXPECTED HEATING THE MODEL IS
PRODUCING FROM BREAKS IN THE OVERCAST. WL MENTION JUST RW ATTM AND
WL BRIEF DAYSHIFT OF THE POTENTIAL FOR TRW ON SUNDAY ASSOCIATED WITH
5H VORT AND SFC COLD FRNT.

MONDAY-TUESDAY...THE COOL AND UNSETTLED WX PATTERN WL CONT FOR THE
BEGINNING OF NEXT WEEK. BASED ON PROGGED 85H TEMPS AND POSITION OF
MID/UPPER LVL TROF AND ASSOCAITED COOL POOL WL CONT TO MENTION TEMPS
5 TO 10 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL. TIMING OF INDIVIDUAL S/W'S BECMGS
EXTREMELY DIFFICULT...BUT FEEL BEST CHC FOR RW WL BE AFTN/EVENING
TIME PERIOD...WHEN SFC HEATING IS THE BEST. CRNT FCST HAS THIS
COVERED WELL AND SEE NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO FCST ATTM.

&&

.AVIATION (06Z-06Z)...
CEILINGS WILL GRADUALLY LOWER TODAY AS A WARM FRONT APPROACHES THE
REGION FROM THE SOUTHWEST. HIGHER TERRAIN WILL BECOME OBSCURED IN
CLOUDS ACROSS VERMONT AND NORTHERN NEW YORK BETWEEN 15Z-18Z. SHOWERS
WILL BE SCATTERED ACROSS THE REGION TODAY. AREAS OF MVFR CEILINGS
WILL DEVELOP ACROSS VERMONT AND NORTHERN NEW YORK IN THE 15Z-18Z
TIME RANGE...MAINLY OVER THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS. STEADIER RAIN SHOWERS
AND MIST ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE REGION IN THE 22Z-02Z
TIME RANGE WITH MVFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES EXPECTED.
