Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Taunton MA
1002 AM EDT Sat Mar 18 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure over Maine will provide dry but cooler weather today.
A clipper low then tracks south of New England, bringing the
potential for accumulating snow Saturday night into Sunday. The
highest risk is across southeast MA, especially Cape Cod and
the Islands. Dry and seasonable weather returns Monday, as high
pressure builds into our region. Milder weather Tuesday ahead of
an arctic front. Then a frigid airmass with near record cold
overspreads the area during the middle of next week. Dry and not
as cold the end of next week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...

10 am update...

High pressure slowly moves off the northern New England coast as
shortwave energy slowly approaches from the west. The result
will be an increase in clouds from west to east during the
afternoon. Dry weather should prevail for the majority of the
day...but shortwave energy may trigger a few rain or snow
showers across western MA/northern CT toward evening.

High temps will mainly be in the upper 30s and lower 40s...but
parts of northeast MA may generally be in the middle 30s this
afternoon as winds shift east off the cold ocean.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM SUNDAY/...
*/ Highlights...

 - Continued spread in latest forecast guidance, limited confidence
 - Winter Storm Watch continues for the Cape and Marthas Vineyard
 - Potential for a 4-6 inch heavy, wet snow event
 - High Wind Watch continues for Cape and Islands
 - Potential for northeasterly 40 mph sustained winds, 60 mph gusts
 - Strong to damaging winds in addition to possible heavy, wet snow
 - Possibility for downed trees, tree limbs, power outages

*/ Discussion...

Models: Two camps, the 18.0z GFS / Canadian huggers versus the 18.0z
NAM / UKmet / EC buggers, as in bugging out to sea. Both exhibit the
surface low stacking beneath mid-level H85-7 features. Mesoscale and
synoptic forcing leading to deformation within the N/W quadrant of
the low with focus within H6-8 with rearward isentropic 290-300K
trowaling with both lift and available moisture in the snow growth
region in an environment of conditionally unstable lapse rates that
yield SW-NE snowbanding signatures. However the location of such
signatures with respect to SE New England is either hit or miss.
Some indication perhaps correlated to variance of upstream ridging
and/or shearing equatorward of mid-level vort lobe energy and its
associated magnitude. In the end the spread is noteworthy and
simply leads to a lack of confidence. Even the 18.0z WRF solutions
vary between NMM and ARW cores. Time to evaluate ensembles.

Ensembles: Per NCAR, continued spread in amplitude of H85-5 height
features. Unclear is approximate magnitude and troughing of mid-
level features, perhaps consequential of model handling of upstream
ridge enhancement yielding stronger equatorward winds shearing and
potentially cutting-off vort-max energy S. However, despite spread
in H925-85 thermal fields, a high degree of confidence the column
aloft will be below freezing. Would then expect a rain/snow event
that hinges on 2m temperatures and precipitation intensity. Segway,
SREF dprog/dt trends, the 17.21z being the latest, lessening impacts
over N/W portions of S New England, steady around the I-95 corridor
while increasing over SE MA, indications of tight NW-SE gradient of
outcomes in agreement with model huggers, 18.0z GFS / Canadian.

Forecast thinking: Splitting hairs over a forecast which there is
little confidence gleaned from either model or ensemble guidance.
Simply comes down to a consensus weighting of all raw forecast data.
This results in the likelihood of outcomes across SE MA from roughly
1 am to 4 pm Sunday. However given a heightened consensus of model
guidance of offshore outcomes, with wobbling of the storm center
noted over the last several forecast runs, will blend the previous
forecast with a consensus blend of the latest guidance trending
towards a tighter gradient of outcomes along the I-95 corridor with
the majority of impacts focused over SE MA especially the Cape and
Islands. This agrees pretty well with the latest WPC forecast. Now
to the forecast details.

Winds: Continued potential of 60 mph northeasterly gusts over the
Cape and Islands with sustained winds up to 40 mph around Sunday,
the height of the winds during the midday into afternoon hours. Yet
given uncertainty and a portion of forecast guidance wobbling the
storm center further out to sea, will keep with the HIGH WIND WATCH
and forego the issuance of wind advisories with this update. This
simply because there is not enough confidence to go with additional
headlines, however there remains enough possibility to continue with
the current watch.

Snowfall: Amounts decreased. Weighting the previous forecast with
the latest thinking, there is the potential for accumulating snow
along the I-95 corridor and towards the SE with a coating to an inch
N/W, more than likely a coating if that for N/NW areas of MA. As to
the SE, considerations include the intensity of snowfall, especially
during the daylight hours given it's mid-March and there's a strong
onshore easterly flow off ocean waters in the upper 30s to low 40s.
Likely going to be mild prior to the storm with highs Saturday up
into the low to mid 40s over SE portions of New England. With light
snowfall, more than likely we'll only see accumulation on non-paved
surfaces, whereas more intense snowfall, with rates closer to 1 inch
per hour, then roads will more likely become and remain snow covered
thinking that with more intense snow surface temperatures will drop.
That is if snow isn't mixing with or changed over to rain. Dealing
with milder air with an E onshore flow. Have gone ahead and included
a wet-bulb consideration into the 2m temperature forecast centered
during the height of the snowfall forecast around Sunday morning.

This looks to be one of those events where areas around the Cape Cod
Canal including the Upper Cape see the highest amounts while perhaps
the Outer Cape sees very little. Again, as noted above, comes down
to low level thermal profiles and snowfall intensity. In addition it
could be one of those events where accumulations are that of heavy,
wet snow weighting on trees, tree limbs, bringing down power lines
and leading to power outages. Highest amounts forecast of around 4
to 6 inches, and given potential impacts, will keep with the current
WINTER STORM WATCH.

In closing: This remains a very tricky forecast and we're working
hard to keep you informed on the latest forecast guidance. Nothing
means more to us than our mission of protecting lives and property.
With that being said, interests along and S/E of the I-95 corridor
including SE MA, Cape and Islands, should continue to maintain a
level of awareness for potential impacts being the area of greatest
risk. The forecast can still change even within the next 12 hours,
the storm center can still wobble, even possibly hugging closer to
the coast. There remains a wide spread in the forecast guidance of
possible outcomes and thus we will retain the WATCH headlines with
this forecast update.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Highlights...

* Moderating temps early next week with 50s possible Tue!

* Arctic blast with near record cold returns middle of next week

Monday...

Dry weather returns as subsidence on backside of departing ocean
storm provides sunshine across most of the region.  The exception
will be over Cape Cod and the Islands where low clouds will linger
as ocean storm slowly exits seaward. Clouds may not break here until
afternoon or late in the day. Also gusty north winds persist across
the Cape and Islands in the morning with gusts up to 40 mph
possible. Not quite as windy during the afternoon. However these
northerly winds off the chilly ocean waters will provide cool
conditions. Father inland model cross sections suggest a fair amount
of sunshine, possibly fading behind increasing high clouds late in
the day as WAA pattern approaches from the west. Nonetheless fairly
pleasant with highs in the 40s, abundant strong March sunshine and a
modest NNW wind.

Tuesday...

Arctic front approaching from the northwest but not expecting a
fropa until after sunset. Thus potential for a mild day.  Prefrontal
environment is relatively mild along with good mixing courtesy of
westerly pressure gradient. Bufkit soundings indicate blyr mixing at
least up to 850 mb during the afternoon with temps around -7C at the
top of the mixed layer. This combined with at least partial sunshine
should yield highs at least near 50. However downslope winds and a
dry airmass should tack on a few more degs to push highs into the
50s. A gusty west wind up to 30 mph will make it feel a tad cooler
but nonetheless temps finally above normal! EC mos is the warmest of
the guidance will use it to derive max temps Tue afternoon.

Wednesday and Thursday...

Arctic front moves across the area Tue night with a frigid airmass
(by late March Standards) overspread the region Wed and Thu.
Ensembles (both GEFS & EPS) and deterministic guid both bring -18C
to -20C 850 mb temps across the region during this time. These
values are about -2 standard deviations colder than climo! This will
result in near record cold temps for both Wed and Thu along with
bitterly cold wind chills.

Friday...

Not as cold with core of cold air exit New England. Dry weather
likely prevails.

&&

.AVIATION /14Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...

Low - less than 30 percent.
Moderate - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.

Short Term /through Sunday/...Moderate Confidence.

Today...Mainly VFR into early afternoon but should see some
MVFR cigs overspread portions of the interior by mid to
late afternoon. A few rain or snow showers are possible across
western MA/northern CT toward evening.

Tonight... BKN-OVC MVFR cigs overspreading all terminals with
increasing -SN/SN coverage over S New England. IFR impacts with
visibility of 1-2 miles in SN. Increasing easterlies becoming
NE. Gusts up to 40 kts by Sunday morning across the S-coast of
RI and MA including the Islands. Roughly 20 to 30 kts along the
E coast of MA. Sustained winds around 15 to 25 kts.

Sunday...
-SN possibly mixing with or changing over to -RA over SE New
England, gradually shifting E out to sea. Mix of MVFR/IFR
impacts with mainly MVFR cigs 1-2 kft agl. Continued strong E/NE
winds the height of which is around 21z with general 30 to 40 kt
gusts along the E/SE coast, but to 50 kt over the Cape and
Islands with sustained winds up to 35 kts.

Sunday Night...
-RA/-SN and wind impacts diminishing E. Strongest winds at the
beginning of the period with potential 35 kt E/NE sustained
winds over the Outer Cape and Nantucket, gusts to 50 kts.
Lesser IFR impacts. MVFR cigs lifting out to the E.

KBOS TAF...Accumulating snows on area runways are possible for
the Sunday AM push and continuing through the PM push. However
only moderate confidence at this time. Higher confidence with
respect to strong E/NE becoming N with time around Sunday.

KBDL TAF...Lesser threat of snowfall. Thinking amounts across
the terminal on the order of a coating to an inch. Breezy N
winds. Moderate confidence forecast.

Outlook /Sunday Night through Wednesday/...

Monday...

MVFR cigs likely over southeast MA including Cape Cod and the
islands. Scattered -SHSN/-SHRA possible here too. North winds may
gusts up to 35 kt early in the day. Otherwise VFR and dry conditions
elsewhere along with a diminishing north wind.

Tuesday and Wednesday...

VFR likely with a modest WNW wind Tue but increasing NW winds Tue
ngt into Wed with passage of an arctic front.

&&

.MARINE...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...

Low - less than 30 percent.
Moderate - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.

Short Term /through Sunday/...Moderate Confidence.

Still uncertainty on a low center tracking S of New England and
deepening offshore. It's proximity to the coast is the biggest
question as is its intensity. Subsequent impacts with respect to
gale and storm force winds with waves building up around 10 to
14 feet on the outer waters. Given the uncertainty in the forecast
will continue with GALE and STORM WATCHES. However, mariners
should be aware of the likelihood no matter what for very breezy
E/NE flow that will heighten wave activity, mainly centered
around Sunday afternoon into evening.

Outlook /Sunday Night through Wednesday/...

Monday...

Northerly gales likely across the eastern MA waters, then slowly
lowering during the afternoon. Elsewhere, north winds 20-30 kt.
Rain/Snow showers may linger Mon morning across the eastern MA
waters. Otherwise dry weather and good vsby.

Tuesday...

Modest WNW winds during the day along with dry weather and good
vsby. However arctic front likely barrels thru during the evening
hours with a risk of WNW gales behind the front.

Wednesday...

WNW gales likely behind departing arctic front. Frigid airmass and
WNW gales will increase the risk for moderate freezing spray
especially Wed night.

&&

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
The possibility of northeasterly winds gusting up to 60 mph across
the waters resulting in forecast wave heights of 10 to 14 feet during
periods of high tide around Sunday morning and Sunday evening presents
the threat of splashover or minor coastal flooding along the E coast
of MA, especially in Cape Cod Bay. Surge values of 1.5 to 2.5 especially
around areas of Barnstable MA along with increased swell and wave
action presents the coastal flood threat, including minor beach erosion.

Given the uncertainty of both the proximity, residency, and strength
of the storm center anticipated offshore, will hold off on headlines
with this update pending further evaluation of later forecast guidance.
However, those with interests along the E MA coastline should remain
aware of the latest forecast and take actions as necessary.
