What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Boston/Norton, MA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at Aug 21, 3:12 PM EDT, 1 hour 1 minute earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 21, 3:12 PM EDT, 1 hour 1 minute before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Boston/Norton MA 312 PM EDT Tue Aug 21 2018 .SYNOPSIS... A low pressure system will bring two rounds of scattered showers and embedded thunderstorms. The first late tonight into Wednesday morning, then a second round Wednesday afternoon along with the return of high humidity. High pressure will then follow, bringing sunny conditions and comfortable humidity Thursday and Friday. The high moves off the coast next weekend allowing increasing chances of showers and thunderstorms. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... Light drizzle/showers still lingered around the Cape and islands. Not expecting that to change much late this afternoon. Clouds will remain more prevalent across the eastern half of southern New England. Farther west, mostly sunny skies are more likely. Tweaked temperatures for the rest of this afternoon to reflect observed trends. Overnight, the main concerns will be the progress of a low pressure and its warm front. Have high confidence in this low pressure moving through the Great Lakes into Canada. have lower confidence in the timing of a warm front. Many members of the 21/12Z guidance suite suggest this front could move into northern New England before daybreak. Thinking is this likely a bit too quick. Have more confidence in a warm frontal passage in the 8-11 AM Wednesday time range. This could be key to weather outcomes. The higher dew points will be south of this warm front. These higher dew points will provide the fuel for local downpours, as well as lowering cloud bases. Some of the higher resolution short-term guidance suggest high values of shear in the 0-1 km layer. Thus, still need to be wary of rotating thunderstorms. A caveat to this will be the time of day. Instability should not be very high overnight, but would be a little higher if our region can tap into the higher dew points south of the warm front. At this point, have much more confidence in the potential for locally heavy rainfall. && .SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/... * A few strong to severe storms possible * Localized street flooding possible, too Wednesday... Once our region firmly gets into the warm sector, looking at a strong southerly low level jet to help recharge the instability for Wednesday afternoon. Current timing for a cold front is during the afternoon and evening. The quicker sunshine develops in the morning, the greater the risk for strong to severe thunderstorms during the afternoon and evening. Otherwise, still expecting another day of higher heat and humidity. This should start to an end later Wednesday night, as drier air arrives behind a cold front. && .LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... */ Highlights... - Dry, comfortable weather Thursday into Friday - Return warmer, humid conditions beginning over the weekend - Accompanying chances of showers and thunderstorms */ Discussion... Warmer than average temperatures forecast towards September. Latent heat release per Soulik and Cimaron, becoming baroclinic, amplified N Pacific standing wave pattern with H5 Bering Sea trof, NE Pacific ridge, and subsequent W CONUS trof. The latter, an associated anti- cyclonic Rossby wave break and attendant PV-streamer influencing continued organized tropical convection out towards Hawaii. This and upstream trends as seemingly the main Polar low retrogrades back N, H5 ridging builds and is maintained over the SE CONUS extending into New England into the end of the month per SW-NE pump. Ensemble means signaling anomalous H85 warmth, CPC 6-10 and 8-14 day temperature outlooks with high confidence noting warmer than average conditions. Can't rule out dips within aforementioned SW-NE CONUS flow, trailing cold fronts and chances of showers / thunderstorms, however becoming diffuse up against the H5 ridge as associated mid-level energy lifts N/E. It's back to N/W New England scattered wet-weather activity that falls apart before ever reaching the S/E coast. Low confidence forecast further out in time, not noting any targets of opportunity. Overall, looking dry and comfortable Thursday into Friday, followed by the return of warmer, more humid conditions for the weekend into next week. Accompanying chances of showers and thunderstorms give increasing instability. Too early to say with any certainty as to strong / severe storm threats as well as any flash flooding potential, however such risks are being considered given antecedent conditions in addition to past storm trends / outcomes. && .AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... Forecaster Confidence Levels... Low - less than 30 percent. Moderate - 30 to 60 percent. High - greater than 60 percent. Short Term /through Wednesday Night/... Through 00Z... Hold MVFR-IFR CIGs over a majority of southeastern terminals. Perhaps interior SCT by then before dropping down again this evening. E winds around 10 kts. Tonight... MVFR-IFR becoming widespread yet again. Onset -RA with isolated TSRA towards morning. With any -RA, dropping VSBYs down to IFR given forecast soupy conditions with increasing S flow. Marginal LLWS possible by morning as a warm front approaches. Wednesday... Beginning early morning, widespread -SHRA with embedded TSRA/SHRA. Anticipating mainly MVFR-IFR conditions with isolated LIFR. A brief lull around noon to 2 pm, before another round of TSRA/SHRA is possible with TEMPO IFR, if not already, before clearing out. Wednesday Night... Mainly VFR. KBOS Terminal...Hold MVFR for today, can't rule out brief, TEMPO improvement to VFR. E winds prevailing up around 10 kts. KBDL Terminal...High confidence in TAF. Outlook /Thursday through Saturday/... Thursday through Saturday: VFR. && .MARINE... Forecaster Confidence Levels... Low - less than 30 percent. Moderate - 30 to 60 percent. High - greater than 60 percent. Short Term /through Wednesday Night/...High confidence. Low risk for a brief waterspout late tonight as a warm front moves across the waters. Vsby lowered at times in morning fog and scattered thunderstorms, then improving before second round of thunderstorms in the afternoon. Some risk for Small Craft Advisories along the southern outer coastal waters due to marginal 25 kt gusts and 5 ft seas. Outlook /Thursday through Saturday/... Thursday: Winds less than 25 kt. Areas of seas approaching 5 ft. Thursday Night: Winds less than 25 kt. Seas locally approaching 5 ft. Friday through Saturday: Winds less than 25 kt. && .BOX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... CT...None.
