Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Taunton MA
347 PM EDT Sat Mar 17 2018

.SYNOPSIS...
Dry but unseasonably cold weather will continue into early next
week. A multi-part storm system moves to the Mid Atlantic states
midweek. This system may affect parts of Southern New England Wed
and Thu, but it is also possible the storm stays to our south with
little impact. However uncertainty remains high on the evolution of
this storm especially its eventual track. High pressure builds with
drier weather Friday.

&&

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

4 PM Update...

A cold front entering northern MA at 3 pm with a noticeable wind
shift from west to northwest behind the front. Some returns on radar
across northeast MA but given high cloud bases around 6 kft along
with dew pt depressions 20-25 degs, unlikely any flurries or snow
showers will reach the surface. Perhaps some virga.

Otherwise a dry frontal passage this evening. Gusty west winds ahead
of the front with gusts up to 40 kt/45 mph, about 30-35 kt behind
the front. Not as windy after sunset as blyr becomes more shallow.

Very cold airmass behind the front tonight with -22C air at 850 mb
currently along the Canadian/northern New England border! Given this
leaned toward the colder MOS guid for lows tonight as winds decouple
especially outside the urban areas and high terrain. Not record cold
but about 10-15 degs colder than normal with mins in the teens
regionwide and single digits northern MA.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...

Sunday...

Cold and dry NW flow continues with more sunshine than clouds.
However a chilly day with highs only 30-35 with upper 20s across the
high terrain. These temps are about 10-15 colder than normal. The
only good news is fairly light winds will not contribute to much of
wind chill.

Sunday night...

Another cold night with 1034 mb high pres over Ontario building
southeast into New England, decoupling winds away from the urban
areas and high terrain. Another round of mins in the teens.

Monday...

Dry but cold NW flow continues. Not as cold with highs in the mid to
upper 30s, low 30s high terrain. Fairly light winds and more
sunshine than clouds will make the cold conditions a bit more
tolerable.

Monday night...

Potentially good radiational cooling with ridge of high pres
cresting over the area combined with mostly clear skies, light winds
and a very dry airmass. Mins in the teens once again outside of the
urban areas.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...

*/ Highlights...

 - Tuesday into Wednesday, keep it cold and dry, N winds
 - Wednesday night into Thursday, monitoring potential storm
 - Friday into Weekend, keep cool, dry pattern for now

*/ Overview and discussion...

Evaluating potential storm development. At set, SE Canadian gyre as
Pacific energy train continues. La Nina tendencies still at play, N-
Pacific H5 ridge re-emerges poleward. N-stream energy dislodged, the
trof-ridge-trof pattern amplifies downstream thru the week ... but
where exactly? NE CONUS perspective, progged upstream energy, even
NW CONUS, bowls within a preferred H5 trof. Yet downstream pattern
becomes lax, opens, suppressive wave presently slips E, NAO forecast
positive. This as a mild Pacific C CONUS punch emerges. A wave-train
nudge E allowing cyclonic trof digging further offshore? Or can N-
stream energy, colder air cut S faster, sharper-amplified baroclinic
setup closer coastal, less flat, more pronounced, per enhanced H5 C
CONUS ridging?

Lot of moving parts, chaotic, expect adjustments in later forecasts.
Focus late Wednesday into Thursday when suppressive, confluent flow
can eject E as N-stream cyclonically digs through preferred H5 trof
pattern, creating a favorable environment towards storm development
near NE CONUS. Believe any activity prior will be suppressed S, off-
shore, beneath confluent flow aloft, only maintaining cold air. Only
certainty, looks chilly through the end of the month.

Threats, impacts, precipitation amounts? Way too early to say with
any specificity. Proximity of any storm, thermal fields, intensity,
time of day, etc., etc., all fairly unknown for now. Best advice,
stay informed, keep tuned to later forecasts.

&&

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

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

front, then diminishing later Sat evening. Not as windy
remainder of the period including Sun thru Mon night.
