Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Taunton MA
428 AM EDT Wed Mar 15 2017

.SYNOPSIS...

Strong low pressure over Maine will circulate much colder than
normal temperatures into southern New England on blustery northwest
winds for the remainder of the work week. Other than a few snow
showers/squalls possible today mainly dry weather prevails into
Friday. Low pressure then tracks over or near southern New England
this weekend bringing the chance for snow or mix rain/snow to the
area. Dry weather likely returns early next week however a round of
rain/snow showers is possible around Tue ahead of an arctic front.
Unseasonably cold temperatures may return the middle of next week.

&&

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

Into this morning...

 * SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT for icy conditions along untreated
   roadways for the morning commute till 9 am.

Mature surface low pressure center of 980 mb continues to lift N
into Maine. Winds have turned out of the W remaining blustery as
sky conditions have become scattered to broken with mixing down-
ward of mid-level dry air. W gusts of 30 to 35 mph prevail as of
4 am especially along the coast and across the high terrain.

With lows down into the teens to single digits with strong cold
air advection prevailing behind the mature low center, as we
approach sunrise it'll feel closer to near-zero to several
degrees below zero. Such cold temperatures likely resulting in
the freezing of water on untreated surfaces. Already some slick
spots on our own parking lot. SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT in effect
till 9 am for the threat of icy spots.

Very atypical conditions for mid-March. Lows on this day (March
15th) to which we'll fall towards but not reach are as follows:

Boston     ... 12 (1993)
Hartford   ...  6 (1993)
Providence ... 11 (1993)
Worcester  ...  2 (1993)

Today...

Concerns with respect to snow showers, possible squalls for the
midday into afternoon hours. Interrogating, beneath the comma-
head of the associated deep area of low pressure occluding over
N Maine, cold air advection proceeding with wrap around NW
flow. Steepening lapse rates up to H7 through which there is
fairly sufficient moisture, roughly around 80 percent relative
humidity, parent with a stout mid-level vortex rotating through
the region round the low pressure column transitioning from a
mature to a dying phase as it stacks over N Maine. Perhaps the
wildcard in this scenario is low-level moisture availability,
however a bigger missing element is a convergent focus. As most
of the high-res guidance indicates, snow shower / squall
activity is likely along the W slopes of high terrain given
orographical lift. Much of the associated forcing behind the
activity is synoptic in nature parent with the aforementioned
mid-level vortex. Will go with mostly chance PoPs with likely
along the Berkshires and Worcester Hills. With any snow shower /
squall activity, visibility may drop down as low as a mile or
two and there is the possibility of minor accumulations ranging
from a coating up to an inch.

Otherwise breezy westerly flow throughout the day, somewhat
relaxed given the pressure couplet has shifted N/E of our region
while relaxing. Much of the W winds driven by the gradient flow
with the low centered over N Maine and a 1030+ high over the
Lower OH Valley. Scattered to broken cloud decks filling back in
through the day with onset of snow shower / squall activity,
looking at highs getting into the upper 20s to low 30s, colder
along the high terrain. Coupled with the wind, it'll likely feel
roughly 10 degrees colder, single digits to teens.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/...

Tonight...

Turning breezy. Behind the mid-level vortmax we should see a local
enhancement to the wind profile. With low level moisture lingering
along with a colder airmass in place, expecting continued steep lapse
rates to aid in the facilitation of scattered to broken cloud decks
along with faster winds at the surface with W gusts 30 to 35 mph
for some areas. Lows back down in the teens to single digits, it'll
feel roughly near-zero to several degrees below-zero for most
locations. Some light snow shower activity may linger across the
W slopes of higher terrain and across the ocean waters. However
drier air and subsidence building into the region, should see such
chances diminish into Thursday morning.

Thursday...

Another cold day on tap. The occlusion ongoing over N Maine, S New
England remains beneath an anomalously cold airmass for mid-March
with H85 temperatures ranging around -15C. Drier air and subsidence,
mixing only up to H85, however still anticipate breezy W winds given
the continued gradient flow. Scattered to broken cloud decks with
W wind gusts ranging around 20 to 25 mph, highs in the upper 20s
to low 30s will once again feel some 10 degrees colder, ranging
around the teens.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...

Highlights...

* Dry but colder than normal Thu ngt into Fri

* Chance of snow and/or rain this weekend

* Arctic air may return middle of next week

Thursday night and Friday...

Below normal heights continue Thu ngt as mid level low remains over
the maritimes. This will continue below normal temperatures Thu ngt.
By Fri heights begin to rise across the region so airmass will
slowly modify as March sun goes to work. Thus not as cold Fri but
still below normal (mid 40s) with highs in only the 30s. Although it
will feel milder than today and Thu as high pressure slides across
the region and provides light winds. So the combination of light
winds and increasing March sun angle will make it feel quite
pleasant.

This Weekend...

Still major differences between the 00z GFS and 00z EC regarding
amplitude, track and timing of potent clipper system this weekend.
EC is much more amplified, slower and digs mid level low much
farther south (just south of New England coast) than the GFS
(tracking across southern New England). There is some ensemble
support from the EPS for a stronger EC solution with many individual
EPS members having a stronger coastal low tracking somewhere between
Nantucket and the 40N/70W benchmark. For what it's worth at this
time range the 00Z EPS has 50% probability of potential snowfall
Sat/Sun exceeding 3 inches across RI and eastern MA. Complicating
issues is thermal profiles may be too warm for all snow along the
south coast. Thus risk of mixed rain/snow here. Given the model
spread here we followed a blend approach.

Next Week...

Weekend system moves out to sea promoting rising heights across the
area. This will support a trend toward drier weather and temps
approaching seasonal norms...mid to upper 40s. However both
ensembles and deterministic guidance in good agreement (very strong
signal) that another arctic airmass may invade southern New England
the middle of next week.  In fact the new 00z GEFS are colder than
previous run with 850 temps down to -20C into northern New England
next Wed. For late March that's -2 standard deviations colder than
climo! Remarkable clustering given day 7. Given -20C is the ensemble
mean, in reality this airmass may turn out to be even colder. EPS
onto this as well with probability of highs reaching 32F next Wed
only 50% chance.  As for precip, Monday looks dry but then risk of
rain/snow showers along and ahead of arctic front Tue.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...

Short Term /through Thursday/...Moderate Confidence.

SCT-BKN low-end VFR / MVFR cigs throughout. Continued breezy W
flow with strongest gusts over the S/SE coastal terminals up
around 25 kts today, gusting up around 30 kts overnight and then
diminishing into Thursday. SHSN threats today with possible TEMPO
IFR conditions.

KBOS TAF...
W winds prevailing with gusts around 25 to 30 kts mostly, some
increase in the winds possible tonight. SCT-BKN low-end VFR to
MVFR through Thursday. SHSN threats possible late today.

KBDL TAF...
W winds prevailing with gusts around 25 to 30 kts mostly, some
increase in the winds possible tonight. SCT-BKN low-end VFR to
MVFR through Thursday. SHSN threats possible late today.

Outlook /Thursday Night through Sunday/...

Thursday night into Friday...High confidence.

VFR with diminishing winds Friday.

Saturday-Sunday...Low confidence.

MVFR/IFR cigs/vsbys Saturday in snow and areas of rain. Accumulating
snow possible.

&&

.MARINE...

Forecaster Confidence Levels...

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

Short Term /through Thursday/...High Confidence.

GALE WARNINGS into the morning hours, a lull during the day
forecast, only to increase back up to gale overnight. Will
likely have a period of small craft advisories in between the
two periods of strongest winds. Seas remain heightened as is the
threat of freezing spray. Waves 10 to 14 feet on the outer
waters initially, gradually diminishing with time.

Outlook /Thursday Night through Sunday/...

Thursday night - Friday...Moderate confidence.

Modest NW winds Thu ngt but then diminishing as high pressure builds
over the waters from the west. Dry weather and good vsby prevail.

Saturday-Sunday...Low confidence.

Lots of uncertainty here as a clipper low approaches the region from
the west. Three possible scenarios, 1) weak clipper low tracks
across southern New England, 2) clipper low tracks south of New
England and then intensifies into a Gale Center near 40N/70W, 3)
something in between the two scenarios above. Snow and/or rain
likely and reduces vsbys.

...Untreated roads and walkways may be icy this morning...

The storm that brought the heavy snow to much of the region
yesterday has departed. However, temperatures early this morning
have dropped into the teens to the middle 20s. This has allowed
standing water and slush to freeze solid overnight. Untreated
roads and walkways may be icy this morning. Motorists should
drive with extra caution and allow extra time to reach their
destinations.
