Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Taunton MA
1020 PM EST Fri Dec 8 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
Low pressure in the Gulf of Mexico will track NE to a position
southeast of Nantucket Saturday evening then into the Maritimes
Sunday. This system will bring a moderate snowfall to much of
the region with 4-7 inches along and northeast of I-95. Less
snow southeast of I-95 as snow mixes and/or changes to rain.
Mainly dry but cold and blustery weather follows Sun and Mon.
Another coastal storm may bring more rain and/or accumulating
snow Tuesday into early Wednesday. This storm will be followed
by unseasonably cold and windy weather late Wednesday into
Thursday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...

1030 PM Update...

Overall trend in the forecast remains on track for this evening.
Potent northern stream shortwave is beginning to dig into the
northern Great Lakes as seen in latest water vapor imagery.
Across the southeast and up towards the Mid-Atlantic, moisture
plume riding along a 700 mb front will continue to stream north
and eastward overnight. Dewpoints at the surface are already
slowly falling an thus overnight temps will begin to dip as well
esp in the interior. However large cloud shield will keep temps
from truly radiating out. As the northern stream digs, moisture
southeast of the region will begin to back into southern New
England being the focus for precip early tomorrow morning. Aside
from some showers along the Nantucket expect a dry forecast for
much of the night. Have noticed some trends in speeding up
precip for the immediate south coast, so will continue to
monitor. Otherwise warnings and advisories remain the same.

Previous Discussion...

Mid level trough amplification occurs overnight as northern and
southern stream energy diving into the OH and MS/TN valleys back the
mid level flow along the eastern seaboard. This captures deep layer
moisture offshore and pivots onto the south coast as the night
progresses. All Hi Res guidance brings qpf onto Nantucket 7 pm to 10
pm then 1 am to 7 am across Marthas Vineyard and immediate south
coast of RI/MA including Cape Cod. For Nantucket, model soundings
suggest precip begins as rain but then changes over to snow briefly
toward midnight before changing back to rain. As for BID/MVY, Cape
Cod and immediate south coast of RI/MA precip should begin as light
rain and then changeover to snow toward morning as precip intensity
increases and wet bulb temps are reached thru the column. Minor
accumulations by daybreak Sat. As precip intensity increases late
and especially toward daybreak wetbulb temps were utilized to
determine ptype.

Elsewhere...dry weather tonight and seasonably cold with lows in the
20s, around 30 in Boston and 30-35 Cape Cod and the Islands.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
*** Winter Storm Warning Issued for Eastern CT/northwest RI and much
of central and northeastern MA including city of Boston ***

*** Widespread 4-7 inch snowfall for much of southern New England
Saturday & Saturday evening ***

Overview:

12z models continued the theme of a more amplified northern stream
short wave diving southward, backing the mid level flow sufficiently
along the eastern seaboard to capture southern stream system in the
Gulf of Mexico and track an amplifying surface wave over the 40N/70W
benchmark Sat evening. This has resulted in 12z models trending a
bit farther westward with heavy qpf. Steady snow tapers off Sat
evening but developing comma-head may result in light snow
persisting much of Sat night.

Details:

QPF...

All global guidance including 12z UKMET/EC/GFS and NAM have trended
westward with 0.50 inch qpf contour now into CT River Valley of
western CT/MA with up to 0.7 inches into RI and eastern MA. ARW and
NMM are less but given qpf falls beyond 24 hrs mesoscale guid skill
typically diminishes after 24 hrs and especially after 36 hrs. Also
given this is a southern stream system with origins in the Gulf of
Mexico prefer the trends from the Global guidance.

Ptype...

Initially airmass over southern New England is cold enough to
support all snow however as the low approaches light winds become
NNE and this will change snow to rain across Cape Cod and the
Islands Saturday morning. Farther inland have to watch a warm nose
at 950 mb on model soundings that will likely push the rain-snow
into southeast MA and coastal RI. Some uncertainty how far inland
this boundary traverses but could enter the I-95 corridor of RI and
southeast MA, thus getting close to Providence and Boston especially
the southern suburbs of Boston. Not expecting heavy snow intensity
to overcome this so followed model thermal fields and soundings
closely to derive ptype.  Thinking the city of Boston to the north
shore and much of Cape Ann remain mostly snow given NNE traj and
pres falls perhaps developing a weak coastal front to keep rain-snow
line just south and east to the city. Will have to watch this
closely with each model run.

Snow Accumulations...

Given 12z models trended a bit heavier with qpf new snow totals are
an inch or two higher from previous forecast. This yields a stripe
of 4-7 inches of snow across eastern CT, northwest RI into central
and northeast MA including the city of Boston. Elsewhere 3-6" with
an inch or two across Cape Cod and the islands given a shorter
duration of snow before a changeover to rain. Think model qpf is
reasonable and not expecting this event to overperform given only
modest lift (10 ubar/s) in the snow growth region yielding snow to
liquid ratios (SLR) of 10-1 to 12-1. In addition tomorrow's snow
event will feature multiple mesoscale snow bands, first across
southeast MA/RI in the morning and then pivoting into the interior
during the afternoon. The bands don't appear to be collocated with
much instability or pivot over the same area (very transitory). So
there could be a few hours where snowfall rates may approach an inch
per hour for a 1-3 hr period, but overall looking at a period of
mainly light to moderate snow tomorrow. So in a nutshell not
expecting this event to overperform model qpf by much if at all.

Regarding ground temps, have had several nights now with subfreezing
temps and today highs stayed mainly in the 30s. Temps tonight dip
into the 20s for much of the region. So the ground will be cold
enough for snow to accumulate tomorrow and especially now that we
are in Dec sun angle is very low. If this was March there would be
some concern on less accumulation on paved surfaces.

Headlines...

Given new forecast snow totals are now in the 4-7" range have
decided to upgrade the Winter Weather Advisory to a Winter Storm
Warning where forecast confidence is highest. This includes eastern
CT/northwest RI into central and northeast MA including the city of
Boston. Next forecast shift may need to expand the warning southeast
deeper into the I-95 corridor of RI and southeast MA if 00z runs
trend colder and/or heavier qpf.

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

 - Cold and blustery Sunday into Monday, snow showers possible
 - Potential coastal storm Tuesday into Wednesday, wintry mix
 - Colder and again blustery Thursday into Friday

*/ Overview...

Cooler, active weather pattern persists. Continually rotating vort-
maxes shear S out of the Arctic downwind of strong ridging across W
N America, reloading colder air subtly further N/E as the long-wave
pattern shifts ever so slightly E. The thermal gradient tightening
across the NW Atlantic, generating an environment favorable towards
storm development, potential snowy outcomes into the following week,
with dependence on strength / amplitude / tilt of mid to upper level
features in association with both N/S streams. With any energy that
can ride along regions of greater baroclinicity in association with
N-stream clippers, how effectively can they latch into S-stream sub-
tropical moisture. That, in brevity, with consideration of conveyor
belt motions / thermal wind response, spatially and temporally, is
the main theme in this long-range forecast.

Forecast confidence only as far out as 72-96 hours with respect to
operational guidance. Thereafter preference to ensemble means. The
associated N-stream clipper low energy well up in the Arctic where
it is limited in sampling, we can only discern clues and signals as
to potential impacts and outcomes from the breadth of all available
forecast guidance, limited in getting into specifics concerning the
timing, strength, track of any possible storms given both the spread
and inconsistencies within, lending to erroneous results. Patience,
simply preparing for the unknown, knowing how to respond when bad
weather strikes. Welcome to Winter.

UKmet / ECMWF / EPS / GEFS preferred, cold and blustery behind the
Saturday storm system. Follow-up energy latching available moisture
off the Lakes, snow showers persist prior to high pressure and cold
air for the early week period. Then all eyes are on another clipper
low contorting the H5 trof, potentially yielding an environment that
is favorable for coastal storm development and snowy outcomes over
the NE CONUS midweek. Lingering uncertainties as to its morphology,
latching into the sub-tropics along a lingering offshore baroclinic
zone. Back into the cold, blustery conditions behind, a repeat with
snow showers persisting. Further details in the discussion below.

*/ Discussion...

Sunday through Monday...

Cold and blustery with scattered snow showers. Behind the departing
storm system, strong gradient / isallobaric response. Both ensemble
probabilistics and CIPS Analogs indicating the potential of upwards
of gale force winds. Potential for headlines on the waters.

As to snow showers, greatest threat Monday. Ascent with additional
clipper energy with decent moist depth within the column in addition
to fetch off the Lakes, can't rule out isolated impacts with reduced
visibility and light accumulations especially over the high terrain
and also along the S/SE maritimes as mid-level energy exits. Notably
though, forecast guidance PoPs signaling no outcomes. Lean towards
slight chance PoPs with greater weighting over S/SE coastal waters.

Tuesday through Wednesday...

Impressive ensemble mean signals regarding coastal storm development
of off S New England. Pivoting impulses through the broader H5 trof
rotating H85 temperature anomalies through the Mid-Atlantic and NE
CONUS. The baroclinic zone sharpening offshore as mid-level energy
is sheared S through the base of the H5 trof, digging cyclonically
with more time given the amplified, slower flow, the trof undergoes
a negative tilt with H5 heights down -2 to -3 standard deviations.
Thermal wind response and conveyor belt motions, a potential latch
into the sub-tropics if the N-stream feature(s) doesn't flatten /
push out S-stream energy.

Aside, seemingly a Miller-B setup. Clipper low diving S, emerging to
the lee of the Appalachians, riding N/E, deepening and retrograding
back beneath H5-7 negatively tilting features, the surface low bombs
along the coast, a Nor'Easter storm setup sweeping delivering snowy
outcomes.

But still uncertainty giving the timing and speed of features, also
strength and amplitude spatially. Initial cold air damming, question
as to thermal profile with precipitation onset / over-running. Then
how quickly do features evolve with respect to conveyor belt motions
and closing off the H85-5 low, the morphology of the system and how
effectively the comma-head wraps around the deepening low. Parent
lift / deformation rearward within the dendritic growth zone, depth
and quality of moisture mixing back around. Colder, Arctic air will
undoubtedly dig into the backside of the system per the gradient and
isallobaric wind response.

Considerable spread within ensemble members. Certain of a wintry mix
but largely unknown are specifics, both at the surface and up above
within the mid to upper levels when it comes to strength, amplitude,
and timing of features. As alluded to in the OVERVIEW above, simply
need to be patient, be prepared, and be ready to respond in the face
of adverse weather.

Thursday through Friday...

Similar to Sunday through Monday. Colder and blustery with scattered
snow showers. Colder, Arctic air, reloaded, reinforced, it is likely
during this timeframe we'll be dealing with some of the coldest air
of the season and there will likely be greater concern with respect
to wind chills.

.AVIATION /03Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...
Low - less than 30 percent.
Moderate - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.

Short Term /through Saturday Night/...

Tonight...

VFR and dry most terminals except Cape Cod and Islands where
MVFR conditions overspread this area with a mix of RA and SN
transitioning to mostly SN toward daybreak Saturday. Light
accumulations possible on grassy surfaces but expect runways to
remain mostly wet.

Saturday and Saturday night...high confidence on trends but
lower and precise details.

Trending MVFR in the morning with -SN overspread the area, then
trending toward IFR in periods of SN during the afternoon. SN to
RA during the morning along the S coast including Cape Cod and
Islands. The RA/SN then moves inland possibly very close to BOS-
PVD but likely just to the SE of this line.

Thinking runways are going to remain mostly wet along the coast,
with temperatures fluttering in and around freezing, rain mixing
in. Although, for those along the coastal-N, towards later after-
noon into evening, expecting snow accumulation up through around
midnight when snow tapers off.

Preliminary Forecast Terminal Snow Totals...

KBOS...4-7"
KBED...4-7"
KPVD...4-7"
KORH...4-7"
KBDL...3-6"
KHYA...1-2"
KACK...1"

KBOS Terminal...High confidence in TAF.
Roughly 16z-18z Saturday -SN begins, then SN thru at least 00z
and possibly until 03z-06z. SNRA approaches Logan from S/E but
likely remains mostly SN. Runways may remain wet through early
afternoon, accumulating later into evening with forecast SN that
tapers off overnight.

KBDL Terminal...High confidence in TAF.
Roughly 15-17z Saturday -SN begins, becoming SN around 18z. With
temperatures forecast in the upper 20s, no issue with snow accum
on all surfaces. Snow tapering during the late evening into the
overnight hours.

Outlook /Sunday through Wednesday/...

Sunday: VFR. Windy with areas gusts to 30 kt. Slight chance
SHSN.

Sunday Night: VFR. Breezy. Slight chance SHSN.

Monday: VFR. Windy with local gusts to 30 kt.

Monday Night: Mainly VFR, with areas IFR possible. Chance SN.

Tuesday: MVFR/IFR conditions possible. Windy with areas gusts
to 30 kt. Chance RA, chance SN.

Tuesday Night: VFR. Windy with gusts to 30 kt. Chance SN.

Wednesday: Mainly VFR, with local MVFR possible. Windy with
gusts to 30 kt. Slight chance SN.
