Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Taunton MA
337 PM EST Mon Jan 9 2017

.SYNOPSIS...

One more very cold night is on tap for most of southern New
England with large high pressure in control. However, a turn to
much milder weather later Tuesday into Tuesday night, will be
accompanied by some rain which will likely begin as a brief
period of snow across the interior. Unseasonably mild weather
continues through Thursday or Friday, before a return to
seasonable cold and perhaps some wintry precipitation by the
weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...

Band of mid level cloudiness should depart the region this
evening, resulting in a period of mostly clear skies. Given the
fresh snow cover/light winds expect temperatures over the normally
coldest outlying areas to drop like a rock after sunset much
quicker than guidance depicts. Temperatures will likely bottom
out in this region near or even below zero in a few locales.
Meanwhile, the urbanized centers will see temps hold in the teens
given warming mid level temps.

While dry weather expected for the vast majority of the region
tonight, a period of scattered snow showers/flurries are
anticipated for the Cape/Islands. High pressure moving off the
coast will allow increasing southwest flow. 850T below -10C will
result in SST differentials of around +17C. This should result in
some light snow showers/flurries developing later this evening
across the Cape/Islands. Some locations may see a fresh coating
of snow with a low risk that an isolated location or two receives
a fresh inch of snow. Southwest winds and clouds will result in
temps rising through the 20s overnight and places like Nantucket
may even be above freezing by daybreak Tuesday! Certainly a large
temperature difference across the region.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...

***Brief burst of snow likely across interior between 3 and 9 pm
 Tuesday may result in some slippery travel***

Tuesday...

Intensifying low pressure will be lifting up towards the Great
Lakes as large high pressure moves further off the coast. The
result will be an increasing low level jet/warm advection. Skies
should quickly become cloudy Tuesday morning in the warm advection
pattern. There are some timing differences, but most of the
guidance indicates a brief band of decent omega/forcing sweeping
across the region roughly between 3 and 9 pm in the evening.
Thermal profiles are initially cold enough to initially support
a burst of snow from near Bradley...to Worcester...to Lawrence
points north and west. While the bulk of the snow should be
short-lived the potential for a fresh coating to perhaps up to 1
inch of snow is possible. More importantly than any accums, road
temps are cold and untreated roads may become snow covered/slippery
for the evening commute especially across the higher terrain.

Along the Boston to Providence corridor and points southeast,
precipitation may begin as a rain/snow mix but boundary layer
temps will probably already be above freezing with a quick change
to rain.  No problems are anticipated on area roadways.

Tuesday night...

Ptype will change rain in all locations Tuesday evening, as there
is no high pressure to the north to lock in the cold air. Low risk
of a very brief period of light icing across the interior. Much of
the guidance indicates a break in the action, before the strong
low level jet/forcing results in widespread showers developing
overnight. Brief localized heavy showers are possible, but
certainly not looking at any flooding. Areas of fog are likely to
develop, perhaps even a brief period of dense fog as relatively
high dewpoint air for early January over runs the snow pack in
place.

As for temps, they will rise into the 40s in most locations and
portions of the coastal plain may be near 50 by daybreak
Wednesday.

Strong low level jet may result in a period of southerly wind
gusts of 30 to 40 mph across the far southeast New England coast.
Given inversion, kept speeds below wind advisory criteria.
However, can not rule out a few locations hitting criteria if any
heavy showers are able to tap the stronger winds aloft.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
HIGHLIGHTS...

* Active pattern this period with multiple precip events likely
* Anomalous warmth Wed into Fri w/highs 50+ possible each day!
* Colder next weekend along with wintry weather possible

Tuesday night and Wednesday...

Emerging southeast/subtropical ridge this period results in a storm
track shifting west of New England. This yields low pressure
tracking west of our region and warm sector airmass overspreading
the area. Thus rain showers Tue night with locally heavy downpours
toward Wed morning as robust 65 kt SW low level jet advects an
airmass with PWATs near 1 inch into southern New England. Thus could
be some impact to the Wed morning commute with standing water on
area roadways. Regarding wind potential...model soundings are
inverted Tue night and Wed morning so not expecting a lot of wind
transfer from aloft. However can/t rule out a few higher gusts as
heavier showers may be able to transfer winds aloft to the surface.
Behind the front turning quite nice with clearing skies Wed
afternoon and post frontal airmass of pacific origin supporting
highs 45 to 50...about 10 to 15 degs warmer than normal. If fact
Euro ensembles have up to a 50% chance of highs 50+ Wed.

Thursday and Friday...

Another wave of low pressure tracks west of New England across the
eastern Great Lakes this period. Thus another risk for showers Wed
night/Thu and Thu night. Could be some embedded heavier showers as
PWATs climb to over 1 inch or +2 STD! Impressive warm sector moving
across the region Thu with 925 mb temps climbing to +10C to +12C. If
fact Euro ensembles have an 80-90% probability of highs 50+ Thu!
Arctic front then sweeps across the region Fri however cold air
doesn't arrive until late in the day. Therefore mild start to the
day Fri likely results in another day of well above normal temps
before cold air arrives later in the day. Both deterministic and
ensemble guidance shows front moving offshore early Fri with dry
weather likely Fri. Could see a round of ocean effect snow showers
eastern MA coast Fri night as 1047 mb arctic high over southeast
Canada provides cold NE flow into the region with -12C at 925 mb
advecting across the relatively warm eastern MA waters. With SST
running around +7C near shore...this yields a delta-T of near 20C.
Hence could be an accumulating OES event.

Next Weekend...

Big temp change as arctic front drives south of New England Fri/Fri
night. Thus a return to at least more seasonably cold weather. All
guid including deterministic and ensembles indicate a frontal wave
developing on the offshore front and tracking south of New England
sometime next weekend. Thus risk for a period of wintry weather next
weekend pending exact track of wave and depth of cold air over New
England.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...

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

Tonight...High confidence in VFR conditions. The exception will be
across the Cape/Islands where cold southwest flow will bring a
period of scattered ocean effect light snow showers/flurries and
some lower clouds. This may result in some MVFR conditions.

Tuesday...Moderate confidence. Increasing low level jet/warm air
advection will result in VFR conditions trending towards MVFR
thresholds through the day, but specific timing is uncertain. A
burst of warm advection will likely result in an initial band of
precipitation moving across the region from west to east between
20z and 2z. Ptype mainly rain along and southeast of BOS to PVD
corridor, but a period of snow likely across the interior
especially across the high terrain. This may result in a brief
period of IFR to perhaps even LIFR conditions.

Tuesday night...Moderate confidence. MVFR to IFR conditions in
periods of showers with brief heavy rain possible. Ptype should
change to liquid during the evening in all locations as temps
rise. In addition, strong low level jet will result in LLWS at the
terminals. While an inversion will keep the strongest winds aloft,
southerly winds may gust to between 25 and 35 knots along the
southeast New England coast.

KBOS TAF...High confidence in TAF tonight.

KBDL TAF...High confidence in TAF tonight. Brief burst of snow
possible between 20z and 00z Wednesday before a quick change to
rain.

Outlook /Wednesday through Friday/...

High confidence on trends but lower on exact details and timing.

Wednesday...

Clearing late Wed morning and becoming VFR. However fast moving
pattern results in showers moving back in Wed along with MVFR and
IFR conditions.

Thursday...

MVFR likely in showers and patchy fog .

Friday...

MVFR early likely improving to VFR behind departing arctic front.
NNE winds likely become gusty behind the front.

&&

.MARINE...
Forecaster Confidence Levels.

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

Short Term /through Tuesday Night/...High confidence.

Tonight...High confidence. Large high pressure still in control of
the region will keep winds/seas below small craft advisory
thresholds.

Tuesday and Tuesday night...Moderate to high confidence.
Intensifying low pressure headed towards the Great Lakes as high
pressure moves off the coast will allow for an intensifying low
level jet Tuesday and especially Tuesday night. The inversion will
keep much of that wind aloft, but some of that will mix down.
Overall, expect southerly wind gusts of 25 and 35 knots by late
Tue afternoon and night with perhaps some gusts near 40 knots
over our eastern-waters.

We hoisted Gale Warnings for our eastern waters including Cape
Cod Bay, with strong small craft headlines elsewhere. It is
possible that other areas across our waters may briefly hit Gale
criteria, but confidence in that and duration appear too limited
to warrant Gale Headlines elsewhere. Later shifts will have to
monitor.  Long southerly fetch may allow seas to build to over 10
feet across our northeast outer-waters. Lastly, areas of fog may
also reduce visibilities for mariners.

Outlook /Wednesday through Friday/...

Wednesday...

SSW winds 20-30 kt early then becoming WSW and diminishing behind
frontal passage in the morning. Reduced vsby in early showers and
fog...then improving late morning behind frontal passage.

Thursday...

Modest SSW winds along with reduced vsby at times in showers and fog.

Friday...

Arctic front moves across the region in the morning with risk of
showers. Then gusty NNE winds behind the front.
