Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Boston/Norton MA
429 PM EDT Wed Jul 17 2019

.SYNOPSIS...

Showers and thunderstorms will bring localized damaging wind
gusts and a heavy rain/localized flood threat this evening.
Additional showers are expected overnight into Thursday, which
may also result in localized flooding.  Hot and humid Friday
through Sunday with heat- related headlines likely but will be
watching for possible surprise thunderstorm activity. A sweeping
cold front Monday with a scattered line of showers and
thunderstorm Monday behind which relief in the form of
seasonable temperatures, lower humidity is on tap into late-
July.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 10 PM THIS EVENING/...

* Severe Thunderstorm/Flash Flood Watch Into This Evening

A hot and humid airmass was in place ahead of an approaching
cold front. MLCapes were between 1500 and 2500 J/KG given lower
to middle 70 dewpoints in place. This has already resulted in
numerous showers and thunderstorms developing across the region.
Mid level lapse rates were weak, but given the amount of
instability and just enough effective shear isolated to
scattered severe thunderstorms will be a concern into the
evening. Localized damaging wind gusts will be the main concern.
A Severe Thunderstorm Watch remains in effect through 10 pm
this evening.

The other concern into this evening is torrential rainfall and
the threat for localized flash flooding. Pwats of 2+ inches, high
dewpoints and the potential for training prompted the issuance
of a Flash Flood Watch into this evening.

&&

.SHORT TERM /10 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/...

* Showers with localized heavy rainfall will continue to be a
  concern overnight and into Thu especially south of the Pike

While the threat for severe weather will wind down by late this
evening, the remnants of Barry will continue to bring round of
showers/isolated thunderstorms into Thursday. Some guidance
indicates there may be a lull in the activity for a time, but
if that happens showers will be increasing in areal coverage
again toward daybreak and into Thursday. The greatest risk for
localized flooding appears to be near and south of the MA
turnpike, in the vicinity of a stalled boundary and higher
Pwats. The flood risk will also hinge on what happens this
evening, so it is possible the Flash Flood Watch might need to
extended into Thursday.

High temperatures on Thursday will be held mainly in the 70s
with clouds and a northeast flow.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...

*/ Highlights ...

 - Hot and humid Friday thru Sunday, likely heat-related headlines
 - Sweeping cold front with possible showers, thunderstorms Monday
 - Relief with lower humidity, comfortable conditions after Monday

*/ Overview ...

Mid-July heat, late-July relief. S U.S. heat bubble brought about by
Gulf of AK low (+EPO) and SW CONUS monsoon high. Contributions from
the two, subsequent heat pump and higher heights per H85 temperature
anomalies around +5C, for example. Near-flat flow across the N CONUS
and S Canada, will be watching closely heat / humidity / instability
preceding any ejecting N Pacific mid-level impulses, whether there's
any shower and/or thunderstorm activity, plus Barry's remnants. But
into late-July a possible H5 pattern retrograde. Shift to a -EPO as
the 4-corners monsoonal H5 high builds. Deeper E CONUS H5 troughing
with prevailing NW flow aloft points towards relief of cooler, drier
Canadian air being ushered S. CPC 8-14 day outlook hints at possible
below-average surface temperatures for the Great Lakes into the NE
CONUS. Break down the details below.

*/ Details ...

Friday through Sunday ...

Hot and humid. H85 temperatures around +20-22C, H7 around +10-12C.
But concern. Steep mid-level lapse rates around Saturday, a lot of
low-level instability. Shear vectors and orientation that suggest
that if something were to become organized over Michigan within the
region of steep mid level lapse rates and advect that perhaps we
could see MCS / derecho activity Saturday and Sunday. Initial
thinking, but nothing set in stone. Initial indications per 17.12z
NAM and 17.0z EC, but not much indication in SREF / GFS. It would
subsequently impact 2m temperature with cloud cover altering the
heat and humidity forecast. Typically when we get the heat and
humidity where highs alone approach triple digits do we see via
climatology MCS / derecho events. Continued forecast of mid to
upper 90 highs, some locations at or just slightly above 100
with dewpoints in the low 70s as boundary layer moisture is
trapped beneath the cap, fueled by S flow, yielding heat indices
around the triple digits, for some locations at or above 110F.

Beginning Monday ...

Relief. Pattern change discussed in OVERVIEW, a series of sweeping
cold fronts will prevail beneath preferred H5 troughing across NE N
America. Usherance of cooler, drier air S out of Canada along the
leading edge of which a line of scattered shower and thunderstorm
activity is to be expected, Monday into Monday night especially.
Indications of a decent plume of continental-tropical moisture that
precedes the cold front. Timing crucial as early indications suggest
modest uni-directional deep-layer SW shear, accompanying instability
plume nudging into S New England. Low confidence forecast, something
to closely monitor. Seasonable temperatures around the low to mid
80s with much lower humidity, comfortable conditions after the cold
front sweeps through.

&&

.AVIATION /21Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...

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

Short Term /through Thursday/...Moderate confidence.

Tonight...Numerous showers and thunderstorms this evening will
result in periods of IFR to LIFR conditions. Locally strong
wind gusts are possible too. Outside of these storms VFR
conditions may prevail, but low clouds and fog may increase
overnight especially near the south coast. The thunderstorms
this evening will tend towards more showers overnight, but a few
rumbles are still possible.

Thursday...MVFR to IFR conditions expected in rounds of showers
and isolated thunderstorms. The heaviest rainfall may setup near
and south of the MA Turnpike...which may result in brief LIFR
conditions. LIFR conditions also possible in fog across the
southeast New England coast.

KBOS Terminal...Moderate confidence in TAF.

KBDL Terminal...Moderate confidence in TAF.

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

Thursday Night: Mainly VFR, with areas IFR possible. Chance
SHRA, slight chance TSRA.

Friday: Mainly VFR, with local IFR possible.

Friday Night: VFR.

Saturday through Sunday Night: VFR. Slight chance SHRA,

...A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ALONG WITH A LOCALIZED
FLOOD THREAT EXIST THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...

A cold front approaching southern New England will result in
scattered showers and thunderstorms developing around mid
afternoon persisting into the first part of the evening. A few of
the thunderstorms may become strong to severe and produce
isolated/localized wind damage. In addition...torrential rain may
result in 1 to 2 inch per hour rainfall rates with the stronger
thunderstorms. This may result in localized flooding, particularly
if the activity occurs over urbanized centers. Lastly...these
thunderstorms are expected to contain dangerous cloud to ground
lightning.

Please keep an eye and if you have outdoor plans be prepared to
seek an indoor shelter if threatening weather approaches.
