Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Taunton MA
140 AM EDT Sun Apr 16 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
A weak warm front moves through Southern New England tonight,
causing a few showers as it moves through. Unseasonably warm air
follows on Sunday. A cold front will move through on Sunday
night, with a few showers and thunderstorms possible just ahead
of it. Slightly cooler temperatures then arrive Monday and much
cooler weather on Tuesday, especially along the eastern MA
coast. Low pressure will bring unsettled weather Wednesday into
Friday with some showers possible.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THIS MORNING/...
10 pm update...
First round of SHRA will be shifting offshore over the next hour
so as convergence attendant to LLJ shifts offshore. However,
even as mid-upper clouds clear out, the higher dwpts at the sfc
suggest trapped moisture beneath a subsidence inversion related
to narrow corridor of low-mid lvl warming. Therefore, will have
to watch for lower clouds/fog development through the overnight
hours as dwpts reach the low-mid 50s and diurnal cooling begins
to reach these values.

Previous discussion follows...

Behind the showers, clouds will clear out and dewpoints will
rise. Could see patchy fog across the south coast as well as CT
valley and any low lying region. Cannot rule out a few spots
showers during the overnight hours but the main bulk is ongoing.

Gusty southerly winds will continue during the overnight hours
as WAA continues to move through. Winds could die off right
before sunrise but will pick right back up again by morning.
Overnight temps will be mild with lows in the low to mid 50s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH 6 PM MONDAY/...
Sunday...

High pressure remains offshore while a cold front swings through
the St Lawrence Valley. Southwest flow surface and aloft will
bring warm temperatures. Sunshine will bring daytime mixing to
at least 850 mb and possibly near 800 mb. Temperatures at these
levels are equiv to 850 temps of 11-13C, which would suggest
surface max temps 80-84F. Record highs for the date are 87-92,
mostly from 2012, so we anticipate no records. Winds in the
mixed layer will be about 25-30 knots, so a similar wind to
today.

The other concern for Sunday will be convection. CAPEs are
expected to reach 200-300 J/Kg with higher values in Eastern NY
and in VT. Totals will reach the lower 50s mostly to our west
and north, but eventually crossing Southern New England in the
evening. Precip water values will be a little above 1 inch,
which is above normal for April. Limiting factor may be the
winds, which will be coming off the water in areas east of
Worcester. This would stabilize any convection moving east.

Expect showers/thunder in Eastern NY and VT, with a chance some
will move into Western MA and CT. Storms trying to pass
Worcester would be subject to the stabilization and diminish.

Sunday night...

Cold front crosses Southern New England with diminishing
instability. Expect showers to continue to diminish as they
move east. It is possible Southeast MA sees just some clouds
with the fropa.

Drier air moves in behind the front and brings clearing skies
overnight. Dew points will lower after midnight but remain
roughly 45-50, so min temps should be in the upper 40s and 50s.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Highlights...

* Breezy and mild Monday then much cooler Tuesday
* Seasonable through the rest of the week
* Unsettled weather Wed-Fri with showers possible at times

Pattern Overview...

12z guidance remains in good agreement for the period. Zonal pattern
aloft Monday and Tuesday will give way to a more active pattern by
the end of the week into weekend. Several Pacific shortwaves will
enter the flow with the first one transversing across the CONUS
towards the Northeast by Wednesday. A second disturbance will push
towards New England by Friday as the pattern becomes more amplified.
Appears through the work week the region will stay on the cooler
side of any boundary, with the potential for some warmer air by next
weekend. Overall trending towards cooler temps for Tuesday and then
back to seasonable for this time of year. Enjoy Sunday and Monday as
70 and 80 degree days seems unlikely over the next week.

Details...

Monday...High confidence.

Surface cold front passes through the region early in the morning.
However temperatures aloft lag behind the front resulting in a mild
start for Monday. Mid-level cold front will swing through during the
day and with good thermal gradient, anticipate gusty westerly winds
through the first half of the day. Clouds will also be on the
increase as temps aloft cool resulting in steeper lapse rates and
with mid-level moisture, could see diurnal CU develop. Overall
another warm and pleasant day for southern New England, appears to
be the last chance for 70s this upcoming week.

Tuesday...High confidence.

High pressure over southern Canada Monday night will result in in
light/northerly winds. This high pressure will sweep to the east of
the region during the day veering the winds to a more easterly
component. Several guidance members are spitting out some QPF by
Tuesday morning. This may be do to the increase low level moisture
as the upper levels are quite dry, so cannot rule out the
fog/stratus/drizzle potential. The marine layer stratus may make its
way towards western MA by the afternoon. Overall a dreary day in
southern New England appears to be setting up.

Wednesday into Saturday...Moderate confidence in trends,
low confidence on specifics.

First half of Wednesday appears to be dry as surface high and mid-
level ridge remains over the region stalling the approaching Midwest
system. This low pressure system will bring the first batch of
precip to southern New England later in the day on Wednesday passing
a cold front through by Wednesday night. Very weak ridging may allow
enough subsidence to keep conditions dry for Thursday. However
another system will be right on our heels bring another batch of
rain by Friday into Saturday, with perhaps another on Sunday int
Monday. Still a lot that needs to be determine as the EC is more
amplified in its pattern versus the GFS, which will impact precip
timing and thermals.

While it appears that the latest pattern for the region is cooler
and wet, do not anticipate that this time period will be a washout
by any means.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...

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

Short Term /through Monday/...

Through 14Z...High confidence.
Winds shift toward the SW early this morning allowing for breaks
to VFR at several TAF sides with SCT CIGS. A few spots of patchy
ground fog possible. Only caveat will be S coastal locations WST
through Cape Cod/Island Terminals which will drop to IFR/LIFR in
fog/stratus mainly after 08Z and linger until 12Z for immediate
coastal locations, but linger through 14Z for the islands.

Today and tonight...High confidence.
SW winds increase with gusts 25-30 kt at times today. Otherwise
VFR with SCT-BKN CIGS 060-100 at times especially late this
afternoon and evening. SCT SHRA/TSRA possible especially NW of a
line from HFD-ORH-LWM 21Z - 03Z. Lower risk further E and S.
Mainly VFR overnight, winds shift to the NW during the early
morning.

Monday...High confidence.
VFR.  NW wind gusts 25-30 kt at times.

KBOS Terminal...High confidence in TAF.

KBDL Terminal...High confidence in TAF.

Outlook /Monday Night through Thursday/...

Monday...High confidence. VFR. NW gusts to 25 kts.

Tuesday...Moderate confidence. Mainly VFR with east coast stratus
and fog.

Wednesday into Thursday...Moderate confidence. Conditions
lowering to MVFR in the afternoon from west to east as showers
move into the region. But low confidence in timing. Some
improvement on Thursday.

&&

.MARINE...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...

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

Short Term /through Monday/...

Tonight...High confidence.

Southwest winds continue with gusts 25-30 knots. This will build
sea heights up to 5-7 feet on the exposed waters. A few showers
may reach the waters between 8 pm and midnight. Small craft
advisory continues through the night on most waters. Boston
Harbor and Narragansett Bay will have diminished winds after
midnight.

Sunday... Moderate confidence.

Cold front approaches from the northwest late in the day. This
will maintain southwest winds with gusts again 25-30 knots. The
waters exposed to a southwest wind will continue to have rough
seas of 5-8 feet. Small Craft Advisories continue. There is a
chance of a few showers toward evening, but these will be
diminishing in strength.

Sunday night... High confidence.

A cold front crosses the waters early in the night. Winds will
then become west to northwest with drier air and lighter wind
speeds. Seas will remain rough, mainly on the outer waters and
the RI waters. Small craft advisory may linger in these areas.

Outlook /Monday Night through Thursday/...Moderate confidence.

Monday...Westerly gusts to 20 kts with a few G25 kt possible over
nearshore waters, especially BOS harbor and Narragansett Bay. Rough
seas will gradually subside.

Tuesday...Mainly NE winds 15 kt or less veering to E/SE by late in
the day.

Wednesday and Thursday...Increasing SE/S flow developing with gusts
to 20 kt with some risk for SCA gusts and seas. Vsbys may be reduced
in showers Wed night.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Sunday...

Warmer than today as highs reach 80-84 away from the south
coast in the afternoon. Given pre-greenup conditions, dewpoints
will likely drop several degrees more than guidance suggests,
possibly back into the 40s in spite of reaching 50 early in the
morning. Currently have minimum relative humidity values around
35 percent inland from the south coast, but it is possible that
values drop a bit lower than currently indicated. Good mixing
should once again yield southwest wind gusts of 25 to 35 mph
during the afternoon. This will mean elevated fire weather
potential.

Monday...
Cooler temps than Sun but still mild in the 60s with lower 70s
in the coastal plain. Dewpoints will be dropping into the 30s
bringing relative humidities down to 25 to 30 percent in the
afternoon. In addition, expect NW winds to gust to 20 to 30 mph
for a time in the late morning into the afternoon.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
A RIVER FLOOD WARNING continues along CT River at Middle Haddam
CT. The river is forecast to fluctuate due to the tides and
will reach minor flood stage again one more time late in the
day/evening.

The Connecticut River at Hartford is close to its flood stage,
helped along by some tidal influence. However current thinking
is for the river level to remain just below flood stage.

Snowmelt across the headwaters of the CT River in VT and NH from
the past few days will continue to flow south. That, combined
with tidal influence, is resulting in minor flooding and near-
flooding along the Lower CT River.

Those with interests along the Lower CT River should monitor
river levels.

The following web site has more details on the river levels:
