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 Jan 11, 3:59 PM EST, 8 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Jan 11, 3:59 PM EST, 8 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Taunton MA
359 PM EST Thu Jan 11 2018

.SYNOPSIS...
Multiple low pressure areas along an approaching cold front will
bring heavy rainfall, flooding and possible gusty winds Friday
into early Saturday. A sharp turn to much colder weather
occurs rapidly late Friday night through Saturday from west to
east. This may allow rain to change to a period of ice before
ending, mainly in the interior along with a flash freeze across
all southern New England. Mainly dry but very cold weather is
expected Sunday and Monday, but will have to watch the potential
for some snow and/or mixed precipitation Tuesday into
Wednesday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
Main concern for tonight is the possibility of some dense fog
developing as higher dewpoints advect over deep snowpack. Areas
of fog expected to develop with best chance of any dense fog
away from the south coast. Dense fog advisories may eventually
be needed.

Otherwise, leading edge of shower activity as low level jet
approaches will be moving into western New Eng late tonight. Any
precip late tonight will be light and the coastal plain should
remain dry. It will be a mild night with low mostly in the 40s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...

***Unseasonably mild Friday with heavy rainfall and significant
 urban/street flooding threat for the late day/evening commute***

***Freezing rain and icing possible toward daybreak Saturday
 across interior northern and western MA***

Heavy Rainfall and Flooding...

Slow moving cold front approaching from the west with multiple
waves of low pressure combined with highly anomalous PWATs and a
good low level jet will bring heavy rainfall and flooding threat
to SNE. Initial period of heavy rainfall assocd with a potent
low level jet is expected to move across SNE during Friday from
west to east with heaviest rainfall in the interior. A second
wave approaching from the south as potent southern stream
shortwave lifts NE toward New Eng will bring another round of
heavy rainfall late Friday into Friday night. This will likely
be focused somewhere from the I-95 corridor to Cape Cod as
persistent low level jet sets up in this area.

Highly anomalous PWATS of 1.50-1.75" which is 4-5 standard
deviations above normal combined with +3SD low level jet is a
strong signal for heavy rainfall. High confidence of widespread
rainfall of 1.5 to 3 inches with localized 4 inch amounts
possible. Isold thunder is also possible given the strong low
level jet dynamics and marginal elevated instability. Heaviest
rainfall amounts expected somewhere across eastern half New Eng
with focus from I95 corridor to Cape Cod. Confidence is lower in
axis of heaviest rainfall due to potential convection and
mesoscale factors and it is possible this axis could shift.

Temps will soar well into the 50s to even lower 60s across RI
and SE MA with high dewpoints resulting in most if not all the
snowpack rapidly melting. The rapid snowmelt combined with heavy
rainfall will result in an increased risk for significant
urban and poor drainage flooding, especially in vicinity of snow
clogged drains.

Expect sharp rises on rivers and streams but most rivers are
expected to remain below flood stage. The NERFC forecast has
the Assabet river at Maynard and the Pawcatuck river at
Westerly reaching flood stage, but not until late Saturday night
or early Sun.

Strong wind...

Potent low level jet with 60-70 kts down to 925 mb develops
across SE New Eng later Fri into Friday night. Soundings not
supportive of much low level mixing. However, where temps
approach or exceed 60 degrees will enhance mixing and potential
for stronger wind gusts 40-50 mph. The best chance for these
stronger gusts will be across RI and SE MA where mildest temps
expected. Wind advisories may eventually be needed if confidence
increases in these higher gusts.

Freezing rain and icing...

Late Fri night, guidance indicates cold front will drop south
across western half of SNE. Sharply colder air will move in
behind the front with potential for rain changing to freezing
rain with temps dropping rapidly into the upper 20s. There is
still uncertainty with timing of front and low level cold air
but best chance of icing before daybreak Sat will be across
interior northern and western MA, mainly north and west of BAF-
FIT.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
*/ Highlights...

 - Icing hazards Saturday, combination of freezing rain and flash
freeze

 - Cold Sunday through Monday, ocean-effect snows over Cape/Islands

 - Potential winter storm Tuesday into Wednesday

*/ Overview...

Until a H3 jet impulse / H5 vort max is able to cascade E, the wave
break / split flow regime lies offshore of the NE Pacific. H5 ridge
prevailing over the W CONUS as the H5 Atlantic ridge and embedded
traffic slow the downstream flow, a H5 trof pattern is preferred
over the E CONUS through which both N and S stream energy rotate,
influential upon the SW-NE baroclinic zone / cold front sweeping E
through the region Friday into Saturday, stalling offshore against
the prominent H5 Atlantic ridge. A series of storm systems expected
into early next week until the flow seeming relaxes, moving towards
a thawing pattern as mild, Pacific air comes ashore and sweeps the
CONUS. Those storm systems and associated impacts addressed below.

*/ Saturday...

Through the preferred H5 trof pattern, N/S pieces coming together
aiding in mid-level ascent beneath the RRQ of the upper-level jet.
Conveyor belt motions pulling together, anti-cyclonic WCB pulled to
the W, the DCB drawn from the SW, as the CCB wraps in from the N/W.
Evident anafrontal characteristics via upslope along the isentropes,
SW-NE low to mid level frontogenetical banding rearward of a sharp
surface cold front as airmasses clash and considerably colder air
undercuts, the dendritic growth zone dried out.

Freezing Rain...

Assuming there is no ice within the column, colder air undercutting
quickly with favorable lift / ascent aloft prior to dry air eroding
the column, looking at a roughly 3-6 hour window of freezing rain /
drizzle over N/W interior S New England, roughly W of interior Essex
County MA, Worcester and Tolland Hills. There is the potential of
reaching the I-95 corridor, some uncertainty on the speed at which
colder air moves in with precipitation ongoing, but expecting the
column to dry out into afternoon lessening the chance. Collaborating
with WPC and neighboring WFOs, upwards of a tenth of an inch of ice
accretion, the highest amounts in the Berkshires / NW MA, forecast.
Majority of impacts around sunrise into early afternoon drying out
thereafter, perhaps just freezing drizzle lingering before all is
said and done. Held off on WINTER WEATHER ADVISORIES as we're coming
up to a potential flooding event, will let the overnight crew have
another look as the 11.12z NAM / Canadian are a bit faster with the
surface cold front and drying over global guidance.

Flash Freeze...

Considering a sharper temperature gradient, faster temperature drop,
leaning with higher-res guidance from the NAM / Canadian. Looking at
temperatures ranging from 40s to 50s around sunrise. By noon falling
into the 20s and 30s for all but SE-coastal New England, teens for
the Berkshires, then by evening single digits to teens, 20s along
the coast. Residual wet surfaces, a 20-30 degree temperature drop in
roughly a 6-hour period, expect any untreated surfaces to quickly
freeze resulting in potential hazardous travel conditions.

*/ Saturday night through Monday...

Arctic high pressure building across the region. Monitoring ocean
effect snows over the Cape and Islands. Whether uni-directional N/NE
flow within the boundary layer, relative humidity favorably at or
above 70 percent, beneath cyclonic flow. Overall thinking outcomes
will be light. Shear within the layer somewhat disruptive as lapse
rates derive from temperature differences of 10-13 degrees. Noting
the warm ocean temperatures of 40 degrees, the temperature of the
top of the layer, ocean induced CAPE only as high as 200 J/kg, nCAPE
up to 0.15. Would like to see higher values. Expecting light snow
outcomes of tenths from Falmouth of Chatham given the wind direction
throughout the forecast period, better chance seemingly Sunday night
into Monday with mid-level ascent provided by an impulse rotating
through the cyclonic flow. Coldest temperatures around Sunday, going
to be in the freezer. Possible WIND CHILL headlines needed for the
Berkshires otherwise expecting values as low as 10 below zero.

*/ Tuesday into Wednesday...

Clipper low transferring energy offshore over the better baroclinic
zone / stalled cold front up against the Atlantic H5 ridge. Coastal
low developing per consensus of ensemble member / mean guidance. As
to outcomes, still uncertain with respect to intensity, proximity,
movement and timing, details which will be outlined as we get closer
to the event. One thing worth noting is the positive-tilted H5 trof
axis leading into the event becoming negative afterward. Seemingly
developing across New England but deeper and more explosive down-
stream. Looking like a rain / snow event, snow to liquid ratio
dependent respective to regions of favorable lift / ascent, just too
early to get on amounts and exact impacts.

&&

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

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

Short Term /through Friday Night/...

Through 00z...Mix of VFR/MVFR cigs will deteriorate to MVFR/IFR
late afternoon and evening as stratus expands across the region.
Patchy fog developing.

Tonight...Moderate confidence.
Lowering to IFR/LIFR in stratus and fog. Some of the fog may
become locally dense as high dewpoint air begins to overrun the
deep snow pack in place. Rain will begin to overspread western
New Eng after midnight. Areas of LLWS also developing.

Friday into Friday night...Moderate confidence.
Widespread IFR/LIFR in rain and fog. Rain will be heavy at
times in the interior Fri, shifting to the coast late in the
day and Friday night. LLWS also expected and a rumble or two of
thunder can not be ruled out. SW gusts to 35-40 kt possible
across RI and eastern MA Fri afternoon and night. Rain possibly
changing to FZRA across northern interior and western MA
09-12z.

KBOS Terminal...High confidence for IFR cigs developing tonight
but low confidence on how low vsbys will get in fog.

KBDL Terminal...Moderate confidence. IFR/LIFR conditions
developing tonight in stratus and fog.

Outlook /Saturday through Tuesday/...

Saturday: Mainly VFR, with areas IFR possible. Windy with gusts
to 30 kt. RA, chance FZRA, areas FG, slight chance FZDZ.

Saturday Night: Mainly VFR, with local MVFR possible. Breezy.
Slight chance SN.

Sunday through Sunday Night: Mainly VFR, with local MVFR
possible.

Martin Luther King Jr Day: Mainly VFR, with local MVFR
possible. Slight chance SN.

Monday Night: Mainly VFR, with local IFR possible. Breezy.
Chance SN.

Tuesday: Mainly VFR, with areas IFR possible. Breezy. Chance
SN.

&&

.MARINE...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...

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

Short Term /through Friday Night/...

Tonight...High confidence. Southwest wind gusts of 20 knots
expected with seas building to 5 ft over the southern waters.

Friday into Friday night...Moderate confidence. Potent low
level jet develops over the waters but a rather strong low
level inversion is present which will prevent stronger winds
from mixing down. We will certainly see SCA wind gusts, but best
chance for gales will be over the nearshore waters and Boston
Harbor and Narragansett Bay where best mixing anticipated. We
will hold on to the gale watch over these waters and NE MA
coastal waters as confidence not high enough for warnings, with
SCA elsewhere. Risk for gales over the outer southern waters is
low. Low vsbys expected in rain and fog.

Outlook /Saturday through Tuesday/...

Saturday: Low risk for gale force winds with gusts up to 35 kt.
Rough seas up to 16 ft. Chance of rain, areas fog, chance of
freezing rain, chance of freezing drizzle. Local visibility
1 nm or less.

Saturday Night: Winds less than 25 kt. Rough seas up to 11 ft.
Chance of snow.

Sunday: Winds less than 25 kt. Areas of rough seas. Slight
chance of snow.

Sunday Night through Martin Luther King Jr Day: Winds less than
25 kt. Seas up to 5 ft. Slight chance of snow.

Monday Night: Winds less than 25 kt. Areas of rough seas.
Chance of snow.

Tuesday: Low risk for Small Craft Advisory winds with gusts up
to 25 kt. Rough seas up to 9 ft. Chance of snow.
