COMPLEX SITUATION SETTING UP ACROSS THE EASTERN U.S. WITH SPLIT UPPER LEVEL FLOW AND THE EVENTUAL DEVELOPMENT OF A CLOSED LOW OVER THE NRN MID-ATLANTIC BY MON MORNING. NRN BRANCH OF UPR TROUGH AXIS WILL SEND A COLD FRONT THROUGH CNTRL AND NRN SECTIONS OF THE EAST COAST FROM SAT INTO SUN WHILE THE SRN BRANCH DIGS INTO THE CNTRL GULF COAST POSSIBLY CLOSING OFF A MID LEVEL CENTER. AS THE SRN BRANCH OF THE TROUGH LIFTS UP THE EASTERN SEABOARD ON SUNDAY...FAST NW FLOW ACROSS THE CNTRL U.S. WILL ALLOW THE DEVELOPMENT OF A CLOSED LOW INVOF THE NRN MID-ATLANTIC REGION...POSSIBLY PHASING WITH THE DEPARTING SRN STREAM ENERGY. THE RESULT WILL BE THE DEVELOPMENT OF A DEEP SURFACE LOW RIDING UP THE EAST COAST AND SOME MUCH NEEDED RAIN FOR PORTIONS OF THE EASTERN CONUS. MODELS HAVE YET TO LOCK IN ON A SPECIFIC LOCATION FOR THE UPPER LOW/SURFACE LOW WITH RUN TO RUN VARIABILITY EVIDENT. HOWEVER...THERE IS DECENT MODEL CONSENSUS FOR A DAY 3 FORECAST...WITH ENOUGH CONFIDENCE TO ISSUE A SLGT RISK OF EXCEEDING FFG FROM THE NYC METRO AREA INTO COASTAL NEW ENGLAND. ON DAY 2...STRONG UPR DIFLUENCE AHEAD OF THE SRN UPPER TROUGH ALONG WITH FAVORABLE JET ORIENTATION/DIVERGENCE SHOULD PROVIDE LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN ACROSS THE ERN GULF COAST INTO FLORIDA. DEEP MOISTURE WILL BE STREAMING NORTH AHEAD OF THE TROUGH AXIS...OVERRUNNING A WEAK BAROCLINIC ZONE LIFTING NORTH THROUGH THE EASTERN GULF EARLY SAT WITH LARGE SPREAD NOTED IN THE MODEL QPF. AFTERWARD...DEEP LAYERED SRLY FLOW AND POSSIBLE TRAINING WILL ORIENT ACROSS THE EXTREME EAST COAST ON DAY 3...SLIDING NORTH INTO NEW ENGLAND ATOP THE AFOREMENTIONED NRN STREAM FRONT. FOLLOWED THE CURRENT MIDDLE OF THE ROAD LOCATION WITH RESPECT TO MODEL SPREAD LED BY THE 12/00Z ECMWF WITH CONSIDERATION OF THE 00Z GFS/UKMET. |
