Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Boston/Norton MA
122 AM EST Tue Jan 29 2019

.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure will bring dry and cold weather tonight as it
builds across New England and heads to the Maritimes. Low
pressure is expected to track across s New England Tuesday
night, bringing a mix of snow and rain to much of the area,
with the heaviest snow to the Berkshires and north central
Massachusetts. Bone chilling cold late week into the early
weekend, a mild pattern is forecast beginning Sunday into the
following week with chances of rain and/or snow.

&&

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

120 am update...

High pressure will continue to shift further east into the
Canadian Maritimes overnight. Easterly flow just off the deck
will continue to allow for clouds to overspread most locations
from east to west through daybreak. Low temps will bottom out
well down into the teens across portions of western MA/northern
CT with even a few high single digit readings possible in the
normal coldest areas of western MA. Across eastern MA/RI, clouds
were already in place which should keep temps mainly in the
20s.

Dry weather should prevail through daybreak, but can not rule
out a few ocean effect flurries light snow showers across
portions of eastern MA towards 12z. Greatest risk would be on
the north shore, but not expecting much of an impact even if
they develop.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH 6 PM WEDNESDAY/...
*/ Highlights ...

 - Winter Storm Watch for East Slopes of Berkshires/N Worcester
   County Tue afternoon into Wed Morning

*/ Discussion ...

Our winter storm then arrives during the day Tuesday. A deep
mid level shortwave and surface low pressure system will sweep
through the northeast Tuesday-Wednesday.

Models agree that the parent low stays well to our northwest,
while a secondary low forms along the initial cold frontal
boundary as it approaches southern New England. This doesn't
look to be a hugely impactful storm from the perspective of low
elevation snow, winds, or coastal flooding due to the inland
track and the delay in deepening of the low until it reaches New
England.

The track that has come into focus over the last few model runs
takes this low directly over SNE or even slightly north. As
such it's quite warm and while most will start as snow, S/SE
winds quickly bring in above freezing air at the surface which
will change snow to rain up to generally a line from Hartford to
Worcester to Lawrence. Further to the northwest where the below
freezing air holds on snow should continue through the event.

Expecting generally 6-8 inches in the Berkshires by the time
precip moves out before 7 am Wednesday; 4-6 inches in the higher
elevations of the Worcester Hills. These locations with the
highest probability of staying purely snow are where Winter
Storm Watches continue. One area of uncertainty remains in just
how quickly and far north the warm air at the surface will make
it late Tuesday. Not a classic CAD setup, given the high north
of us is offset to the east, but hi-res guidance still wants to
signal some of that cold air drainage keeping portions of the
CT river valley and portions of northern MA colder than
currently forecast. Something to watch as we get closer to the
event. As the low picks up steam, downstream colder air wraps
around on the backside and will probably switch everyone back to
a brief period of snow as the system exits early Wednesday
morning.

As mentioned previously, the low really doesn't begin to deepen
until it is over or north of SNE and as such 925 mb winds don't
ramp up more than 25-35 kts until it is downstream of us. We
can expect wind gusts of 20-25 kts overnight, mainly along the
coasts.

On Wednesday, the storm moves offshore and ushers in a period
of very efficient CAA as a broad mid-upper level trough moves
overhead. 850 mb temperatures drop from around -3C Tuesday
evening to around -24 C late Wednesday. This will promote good
mixing down of a 35-45 kt LLJ moving overhead during the day.
Model soundings indicate potential for wind gusts of 30-40 kts.
Highs in the upper 20s will feel more like the low teens.
Another thing to monitor Wednesday will be an arctic front that
moves through from west to east during the afternoon and evening
hours. This will bring the potential for some brief but intense
snow squalls that could be hazardous to those on the road. As
the front sweeps through, a band of saturated air in the BL and
lots of low level instability accompanies it...1000-700 mb lapse
rates approach 9 C/KM along and ahead of the front which could
lead to brief but intense heavy snow, low visibilities, and
gusty winds. Behind the front temperatures will plunge as we
head into Wednesday night.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
*/ Highlights ...

 - Bone chilling, record-breaking cold late week into weekend
 - WIND CHILL headlines likely
 - Pattern shift into early February, mild with zipping SW-NE storms
 - What side of the envelope, difficult to say on outcomes

*/ Overview ...

Pattern shake-up. W retreat H3 Pacific jet buffered by sub-tropical
Pacific activity echoing poleward. Latent heat release and higher
heights, favorable N Pacific low development shifts over Russia's
Kamchatka Peninsula. Noting 5-day ensemble means, H5 split flow out
over the NE Pacific / Gulf of Alaska, W CONUS H5 trof promotion with
SW winds across the CONUS. Recent S-carving PV-anomalies across E/NE
N America shunted N, favorable region of storm developments shifts
towards S Greenland. This as the stratospheric polar vortex (10 mb)
tightens up over the N pole.

So how does this play out for New England in the long run? Will be
watching for any surge of anomalously warmer sub-tropical W/SW winds
yielding +H85 temperature anomalies as the ECens suggests into early
February. But challenges into an ongoing phase 5-6 MJO into phase 7,
strength / magnitude of sub-tropical Pacific activity in question,
unclear the impact along with inherent challenges in
forecasting. A nod to NE Pacific split-flow regime, how energy
echoes downstream through a preferred W CONUS trof and, at
times, anticyclonic wave breaks extending from Hawaii into
western N America. The latter, an eye on H85 westerly anomalies
already noted S/E of Hawaii just N of the equator.

Seemingly along the thermal-cusp, will be watching for SW-NE weak
open-wave zipping lows, wobbling, wavering, a challenge to forecast.
New England will be a precip-type playground into the first week of
February. Unclear whether we tap into forecast +H85 temperature
anomalies, or are cut down by undercutting NE-winds with prevailing
preferred high pressure over SE Canada. Break down details, forecast
thinking below. Greater weighting towards EC / ECens as always.

*/ Discussion ...

Wednesday night through Saturday night ...

Cold. Plain and simple. Stout potential vorticity anomaly / trop-
fold contributing to deep surface cyclogenesis across Quebec. The
isallobaric / gradient wind response driving Arctic air across the
NE CONUS into the weekend. Have to watch for WIND CHILL headlines
for late Wednesday through Wednesday night, possibly through as late
as Friday. Cold air advection, steepening lapse rates over time up
to around H7 beneath the trop-fold 0z Thursday, will also have to
watch winds, efficiency for the top of the mixed layer to mix down,
whether we'll need WIND HEADLINES in addition to some scattered snow
shower activity. H85 temperatures falling down around -25C, can't
rule out record-breaking H925-7 temperatures within Chatham sounding
profiles per climatology.

A 1030+ high Saturday morn, cold exacerbated by radiational cooling,
especially for areas with deeper snowpack. May come close to record
lows, but a better shot of breaking record lowest high temperatures.

Sunday onward ...

SW-NE weak zipping lows grasping on conduits of sub-tropical air
while training along wavering thermal gradients. Little confidence
on outcomes, will have to wait and see. Numerous variables as to
whether snow pack remains which, if any undercutting cold NE flow
prevails in advance, would aid in maintaining frozen precip-types.
Expecting forward-thump, isentropic-upslope, baroclinic leaf events
with SW-NE lows. Generally weak, fast, with a possible decent sub-
tropical fetch, anywhere from snow to rain, just depends which side
of the envelope S New England will reside upon.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...

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

Short Term /through Wednesday/...

Today...Moderate to high confidence. MVFR cigs will overspread
most of the region through 12z from east to west. Mainly MVFR
cigs continue for much of the day, but some low end VFR
conditions possible at times across eastern New England.

Other than perhaps a few ocean effect flurries/light snow
showers possible along the eastern MA coast this morning, dry
weather should prevail in most locales through mid afternoon.
Light to moderate snow should overspread areas northwest of a
Boston to Providence corridor between 20 and 00z. This will
result in IFR to even LIFR conditions developing.

Tonight...Moderate to high confidence. Snow roughly northwest
of a BDL...to ORH...to BED line. Southeast of this line, any
snow should be short-lived and flip to rain this evening. Bulk
of the precipitation ends from west to east between 6z and
10z...perhaps ending as a brief period of snow in some locales
before ending. Overall...low end MVFR-IFR conditions along the
coastal plain much of tonight, but with IFR to LIFR conditions
northwest of a BDL...to ORH...to BED line where mainly snow is
expected. Improvement to VFR may occur from west to east between
9z and 12z

KBOS Terminal...Moderate to high confidence in TAF. Low risk for
a light snow shower or early this morning. Otherwise, dry
weather prevails through about 23z. Mainly light rain arrives
this evening, perhaps beginning as a brief period of rain and
snow. Little if any accums anticipated on runways with temps
above freezing.

KBDL Terminal...Moderate to high confidence in TAF. Snow
probably arrives after 21z or 22z. The snow probably mixes with
or changes to rain/sleet after 00z, which probably changes back
to snow after 3z or 4z before ending by 7z or 8z Wednesday.

Outlook /Wednesday through Saturday/...Moderate Confidence

Wednesday...

Blustery W winds, gusts of around 25 to 35 kts, possibly as high
as 40 kts. SCT-BKN low-end VFR CIGs around 040, the threat of
SN/+SN showers with briefing IFR-LIFR impacts and quick snow
accumulations on any and all surfaces.

Wednesday Night: VFR. Strong winds with local gusts up to
40 kt.

Thursday through Saturday: VFR. Breezy.

&&

.MARINE...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...

Tonight ...

High pressure builds over waters tonight with N/NE winds.

Tuesday into Tuesday night ...

Increasing SE flow Tue as high pressure heads to Maritimes and
low pressure tracks through eastern Great Lakes. Expect a weaker
low to develop Tue night and track through southern New England.
Winds should reach SCA on most of waters with gusts of 25-30kt
possible.

Wednesday...

Strong west winds increasing to 35-45 kts. Seas building to
9-11 ft on the southern waters, 6-8 ft on the eastern waters.
Arctic air sweeping in, the threat for moderate freezing spray
by late Wednesday.

Outlook /Wednesday Night through Saturday/...Moderate Confidence
