Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Taunton MA
1222 AM EST Sat Nov 11 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure from the Great Lakes builds over the region
bringing dry and cold weather. Near record cold temperatures
are forecast both tonight and Saturday night. Coastal low
pressure may bring a few showers to the region Monday. High
pressure brings dry and cool weather much of the week. A couple
of additional disturbances may bring brief periods of clouds and
a few showers.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THIS MORNING/...
10pm update...
Although purely SKC...secondary weak impulse late this evening
has allowed for maintenance of the sfc pres gradient. This
continues to lead to winds gusting above 20kt across much of the
region. As such and was noted earlier, MOS is too cold for the
conditions, although raw 2m temps continue to run too warm.
Adjustments this evening were based on a blend of the raw/mos
data to better account for current trends. This led to a slight
rise in overnight min temps until we can see whether some
decoupling can occur late. Otherwise, forecast remains on track

Previous discussion...

As H5 cutoff low/associated surface low push NE out of the
Maritimes tonight, pressure gradient relaxes. Noting another
H85 jet passing across at around 00Z, up to around 40 kt. Some
of the higher lapse rates, around 7-9C/km fm H95-H9 linger
through 03Z across the waters and the higher inland terrain,
with 25-30 kt jets from H925 to H95. Also noting lower winds at
the base of the 12Z NAM and GFS BUFKIT soundings by 02Z at the
latest. Since winds are already diminishing, have ended the wind
advisory.

Winds up to 15-20 kt will likely linger across E coastal areas,
and a bit lower across the interior tonight as high pressure
moves slowly into W NY/W PA and S Ontario. Coldest air arrives
in the NW wind flow at the surface and aloft, with H85 temps on
order of -10C to -15C by around 00Z Sat but may not stick around
overnight. However, with the lighter winds, will probably see
some decent radiational cooling especially across the inland
valleys.

Expect temps to drop as skies remain mainly clear overnight.
Away from the immediate coast, will see readings plummet to the
single digits and teens inland and in the normally colder
valleys, down to the 20s along the immediate coast. With the
cold air in place, no doubt about freezing temps across Newport
county RI as well as Cape Cod and the islands. Kept freeze
warning going.

Looks like best shot for a record low will be in Boston
tonight, but can't rule out the other three (KBDL, KORH and
KPVD). Will also see rather low wind chill values especially
across the colder inland valleys and single digits at most other
locales except along the immediate coast. Rather low for mid
November.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH 6 PM SUNDAY/...
Saturday and Saturday night...
Center of large high pressure slowly pushes E across the region
Saturday afternoon and night. Winds slowly veer from NW to N
during Sat, then light/variable or calm Sat night as the high
builds across the region. Will see mainly sunny skies Saturday,
though some high clouds may linger across Cape Cod and the
islands. Cold air remains across the region, so highs will not
be that warm. May see highs remaining below freezing across
portions of the higher inland terrain. Depending upon the temp
recovery during short daylight, may some of our long term
climate sites remain below their lowest max temp records for
November 11.

With the light or calm winds Saturday night, will likely see
best radiational cooling with the long night and mainly clear
skies. Only fly in the ointment will be whether band of mid
clouds moves across the region. The clouds may be thin enough to
allow for radiational cooling, however. May still see a few of
the long term climate sites tie or set record lows for Sun
11/12. See list of record lows and low max temps for both
Saturday and Sunday in the Climate section below.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Big Picture...

Pattern shows a semi-permanent upper low over the Canadian Arctic
and high pressure parked over Mexico. The flow in between is near-
zonal across the Northern USA. Several shortwaves are forecast to
move through the flow. These cross New England on Monday, Tuesday,
and Thursday. A fourth shortwave, the deepest of the set, moves to
the Great Lakes by Friday.

There is good agreement among the GFS/ECMWF/GGEM mass and thermal
fields through at least Wednesday, with some divergence among
solutions Thursday and Friday. Height contours within the zonal flow
are near normal to a little cooler than normal.

Overall, forecast confidence is moderate-high, with the main
uncertainty resulting from timing shortwaves in a zonal flow.
The timing cited above may change in future runs of the models.

Details...

Sunday-Monday...

High pressure over the region will bring dry weather for Sunday,
with light winds at the start and winds turning from the southeast
during the afternoon/evening. Moisture fields show some increase in
mid and high clouds during the afternoon/evening. Mixing levels
should reach between 900 and 925 mb, where temps would support max
sfc temps in the low to mid 40s.

Upper trough approaches Sunday night and passes through on Monday.
Positioning of the associated upper jet is to our south and suggests
the best chance of precipitation remains offshore. But upper
divergence fields show a fair amount of upper venting across
Southern New England. This may generate/support either an offshore
low. This in turn would favor some lift, so expect a chance of
showers mostly across parts of CT/RI/Eastern Mass. Temperatures
aloft are cold enough for snow for part of the day over Western and
Central Mass and northern parts of CT. But the lingering question is
whether the showers reach that far or if they do so during the
favorable part of the day for snow showers.

The system moves well offshore Monday night.

Tuesday through Friday...

High pressure builds across the region Tuesday and Wednesday. A
second upper trough moves across on Tuesday and may hold on to a
period of cloud cover during the day.  Otherwise expect dry weather.

Another shortwave is forecast to move through late Wednesday night
and Thursday morning, bringing another period of clouds and possible
showers. High pressure then builds in to bring dry weather the rest
of Thursday.

The most impressive of the shortwave moves into the Great Lakes
Friday. By this point the models diverge in their logic. The GFS
brings the next weather system in during Friday afternoon while the
ECMWF and GGEM hold off until after 12Z next Saturday. As the GFS is
the odd model out at this time, we have reblended the Friday values
to hold pops at slight chance in Western MA/Western CT and nil pops
farther east. Pops slowly increase after midnight with chance pops
in our western areas by morning.

&&

.MARINE...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...

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

Short Term /through Sunday/...High confidence.

Tonight...

W-NW wind gusts 35-40 kt will diminish tonight as high pressure
builds in from the west. Noted lower winds on several of the
near shore waters, so converted to Small Crafts. Over most of
the open waters, Gale Warnings continue for BI and RI sounds as
well as the open waters, but will likely diminish to Small Craft
criteria through the remainder of the night.

Saturday and Saturday night...
NW winds will continue to diminish during Saturday while seas
will remain well above 5 ft, so Small Crafts for a good portion
of the day. Both winds and seas should diminish below Small
Craft criteria by late Saturday.

Light N-NE winds become light/variable or calm around or after
midnight as high pressure settles across the northeast U.S. Seas
3 ft or less.

Outlook /Sunday Night through Wednesday/...

Sunday and Sunday night: Winds less than 25 kt. Seas less than 3
ft.

Monday: Winds less than 25 kt. Seas less than 3 ft. Chance of
rain showers.

Monday Night: Low risk for Small Craft Advisory winds with
gusts up to 25 kt. Seas locally approaching 5 ft. Slight chance
of rain showers.

Tuesday: Low risk for Small Craft Advisory winds with gusts up
to 25 kt. Areas of seas approaching 5 ft.

Tuesday Night through Wednesday: Winds less than 25 kt. Seas 5
to 6 ft mainly on the outer waters.

...BITTER COLD WIND CHILLS EXPECTED THROUGH MID MORNING...

Gusty northwest winds continue to diminish, but will remain
elevated. Wind chills will fall through the teens into the single
numbers, with near zero wind chills for some locations across the
higher terrain of interior northern Massachusetts. This will be
quite the change from the mild autumn we have experienced.

If you plan on being outdoors through mid morning, be prepared
for bitter cold wind chills and dress accordingly for conditions
more typical of mid winter.
