Area forecast discussion, Dec 25, 10:32 AM EST, 1 hour 8 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Boston/Norton MA
1032 AM EST Fri Dec 25 2020
.SYNOPSIS...
Weather system centered over New York will swing a cold front
through Southern New England as the system lifts north into Canada.
This brings strong winds, heavy rain, and minor flooding today. Dry
with cold to near seasonable temperatures this weekend. Next shot of
rain and maybe some snow mixed in comes Monday. Drier and more
seasonable weather for mid week.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
1020 AM Update...
As of this writing, the fine line is clearing far Eastern MA
with winds really dropping off behind it. Therefore, we have
gone ahead and dropped the Wind headlines for our Western zones.
The primary concern with those areas would be the potential for
localized flooding due to the 1-2 inches of rain that have
already fallen. Combined with the melting snowpack and up to 1
inch of rain to come, there could be minor street and river
flooding in the next 6 to 12 hours. Further east, still seeing
some 40-50 mph gusts at times with the fine line bringing down
some of the 70-80 kt LLJ at 925mb. We would probably downgrade
the wind headlines as well with the next update.
PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
Broad area of rain moving north-northeast across New England.
The areas of highest rain accumulation per radar have been in
the CT River Valley with radar estimates of 1-1.5 inches.
Strongest rainfall per base reflectivity at 0630 AM seems to be
focused over Eastern CT and Central MA. The western edge of the
rain at 630 AM was across Central NY and Eastern PA.
Expect the rain to continue through the morning and early
afternoon. Radar indicates breaks in the rain entering RI and SE
Mass, and this means off/on rain during the morning. But the
trend suggests rain sweeping east by midday/early afternoon.
Observations have measured a few gusts above 50 mph. Expect the
heavy rain will bring more wind to the surface in gusts, as
noted below.
Strong/Damaging winds...
The storm is passing west of New England, but contains a strong low-
level jet that moves across Srn New England this morning and early
afternoon. Guidance shows 80-85 kt winds at 850-mb and 925-mb. This
would support surface wind gusts around 50 kt, possibly a little
higher. Expected surface temps in the lower 60s would aid in
bringing stronger wind gusts to the surface. Expect south-southeast
wind gusts of 55 to 65 mph in Eastern MA, RI and parts of CT. Gusts
of 45 to 55 mph possible farther west in Northwest MA. High Wind
Warnings and Wind Advisories remain in place from earlier forecasts.
Heavy rain/flooding potential...
The strong southerly winds are bringing north a very moist airmass.
PW values of near 1.5 inches are over 2 Std Dev above normal, high
enough to support exceptional rainfall. Guidance suggests 2 to 3
inches by the end of the storm. This will most likely lead to
urban/poor drainage flooding today, and if amounts climb above 3
inches we will face potential for Minor river flooding. Areas that
seem most at risk would be in the CT River Valley, Assabet Valley,
and Southern RI.
In addition to the excessive rainfall, areas where there any
leftover snow may add to the runoff.
Convection/thunder...
Warm surface temperatures and associated CAPE around 100 J/kg...and
strong lift generated by the upper and lower-level jets...may be
enough to generate a few rumbles of thunder this morning and midday.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM SATURDAY/...
Tonight...
Cold front moves offshore by evening. Expect rain to diminish after
the front moves through. Upper dry slot moves in behind the front
and will bring partial or total clearing. Heights at 850-mb are
forecast to fall below normal, although not excessively so. Guidance
favors a range across the 20s and lower 30s.
Saturday...
Upper trough and cold pool move overhead with associated moisture
aloft. Expect diurnal clouds to fill in during the day, especially
across northern MA. Mixing aloft reaches 925 mb, where temps will be
minus 5C to minus 7C, supporting max sfc temps in the upper 20s and
30s.
&&
.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Highlights...
* Drier and cold through the weekend.
* Roller coaster temperature wise next week with moderating
temperatures Monday and late in the week. Seasonable for mid
week.
* Next shot of precipitation is late on Monday into Monday
night. Should be mainly rain, but some snow could mix in as
precipitation winds down.
* High pressure builds in for Tuesday and Wednesday.
Saturday and Sunday...
Trough axis over New England early on Saturday lifts into
northern New England/Nova Scotia by Saturday evening. As the
trough lifts out and exits a ridge builds in from the
Mississippi River Valley into the central Great Lakes/Ohio
Valley by Sunday morning. The ridge builds over New England by
Sunday evening. High pressure will nudge into the region from
the Southeastern US. The surface high eventually builds just
south of southern New England later on Sunday and east of the
region Sunday night.
Dry and quiet weather with high pressure in control. Winds shift
to a westerly direction at 925 hPa on Saturday and are W/WSW for
most of Sunday. This will allow for some downsloping, but it
still will be cool with a -5 to -10 degree Celsius airmass in
place over the region into Sunday morning. Flow becomes more
WSW/SW on Sunday bringing in warmer 0 to -5 degree Celsius air.
So, temperatures will be a bit milder on Sunday - which will end
up being roughly seasonable for this time of year. Went with the
75th percentile for highs on Sat/Sun. The result is readings
generally in the 30s. May see a few coastal areas get into the
40s on Sunday.
Monday...
The ridge axis builds into eastern Canada. Behind the ridge
will see a weak shortwave swing in on Monday and a slightly
more potent trough dig in late on Monday and lift through by
early on Tuesday. A surface low will lift from the central Great
Lakes into Quebec. Expect the warm front to slide through early
on Monday and moderate temperatures, but the trailing cold front
moves through later on Monday into Monday night bringing the
chance of mainly rain. Though given the colder air rushing in
behind the front cannot rule out some light snow mixing in as
things wind down.
Good agreement amongst guidance at this point in time. Just some
temporal differences with the cold front sliding through. As of
right now best chance for any light precip is during the
afternoon and into the evening. Colder air advects in wake of
the front during the evening and into Tuesday.
As the warm front lifts in will see south-southwesterly winds
moderate temperatures with 0 to +5 degree Celsius 925 hPa air
advecting in. Highs will generally be in the 40s with some 50
degree readings along the south coast.
Tuesday and Wednesday...
Ridge axis builds in from the Midwest through this timeframe.
Expect dry and quiet weather with seasonable temperatures. May
get quite chilly Tuesday night into early Wednesday morning due
to strong radiational cooling.
Good agreement amongst guidance through this window.
Northwesterly cold air advection early on Tuesday through
Tuesday night. Winds shift more to the W/SW on Wednesday
bringing slightly milder air. Highs in the 30s for both days.
Coldest night of the extended is Tuesday night into early
Wednesday as high pressure builds in. Lows in the teens across
the interior and 20s along the coastal plain.
