What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this gale warning 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 gale warning went out at Apr 20, 2:00 PM EDT, 1 hour 38 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 20, 2:00 PM EDT, 1 hour 38 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Boston/Norton MA
200 PM EDT Mon Apr 20 2020
.SYNOPSIS...
A distant offshore low may bring some light rain to Nantucket
today. Otherwise pleasant, dry and seasonably cool. A strong
cold front brings a risk of scattered showers and thunderstorms
Tuesday afternoon into early evening, a few of the storms could
be strong. Gusty northwest winds behind the front usher in a
unseasonably cold air mass for Tuesday night into Wednesday.
Mainly dry weather for Wednesday into Thursday. Our weather
pattern then becomes more active again for late in the week into
early next week, with several chances for rains. Temperatures
to remain cooler than normal for late-April into early next
week.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
140PM Update...
Forecast is largely on track. Temperatures have fallen back into
the mid to upper 40s with an increasing NE flow over Eastern MA
and RI. Per visible satellite imagery, the back edge of the
clouds from the coastal storm is starting to clear northwest MA
as of time of writing so still expecting Western MA and CT River
valley to warm into the upper 50s with the sun breaking out.
Previous Discussion...
1030AM...Forecast remains largely on track. Main change was to
further lower the PoPs in SE MA given latest high-res guidance
and radar loop. Only ACK is expected to see a few hundredths of
an inch of rain. Otherwise, plenty of clouds but dry for inland
areas with northeast flow as the low pressure moves by well off
shore. Still expecting CT River valley to reach upper 50s given
afternoon clearing will be from northwest to southeast while
highs reach the low to mid 50s across Eastern MA and RI.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM TUESDAY/...
Tonight...
Clearing from NW to SE as a low pressure moves farther offshore.
Winds become light and back through west to south by daybreak.
While not totally clear, expecting some radiational cooling.
With the lower starting point, expecting below normal low
temperatures.
Tuesday...
**Marginal risk for strong to possibly even severe thunderstorms
Tuesday afternoon with a strong cold front passage. Main
threats would be gusty winds and small hail.**
This is not a clear cut forecast for Tuesday. Still thinking a
strong cold front will cross southern New England during the
peak heating hours. There should also be a strong low level jet,
meaning veering low level shear, along with some divergence
aloft. Mid level lapse rates are expected to be stronger than
moist adiabatic, too. While these are all ingredients which
favor stronger convection, the amount of instability is lacking.
This not expecting widespread severe weather at this time. This
potential will need to be monitored over the next 36 hours.
Overall, the main threats in the afternoon into the evening
hours will be brief downpours, gusty winds and small hail. A
rather dry mid level atmosphere and relatively high cloud base
will also help to enhance down draft potential as the line of
showers move through. Behind this strong cold front, northwest
winds pick up and temperatures will drop quickly.

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
Highlights...
* Strong and gusty northwest winds, potentially to Advisory
levels Tues night into Wed usher in a unseasonably cold air
mass for late- April. Teens to low-20s wind chills Tuesday
night!
* Dry conditions Wed, with frost possible Wed night/Thu AM.
* Unsettled/active Thurs night thru early next week, with
multiple systems offering chances for rains. Timing and
strength of each system, and timing any breaks/dry periods,
still uncertain.
* Well below normal temps Tues night - Wed, then becoming less
below normal late week into the weekend.
Details...
Tuesday Night:
Cold front looks to cross eastern MA, the Cape and the coastal
waters early Tuesday night. Showers and embedded thunderstorms
to clear our area thru mid-Tuesday night. There may still be a
small hail and gusty wind threat in any thunderstorms for these
areas and the adjacent waters. Dry conditions expected areawide
by late- evening.
Behind the front, we then transition into a decidedly non-
Springlike weather pattern associated with a shot of
unseasonably cold air aloft sourced from northern Canada. We are
looking at gusty northwest winds that may support the need for
wind headlines given deep PBL mixing, strong isallobaric
pressure rises and 925 mb winds 40-45 kt. Considering that trees
have likely been weakened from recent high wind/wet snow
events, could have some impacts even if gusts fall just short of
true wind advisory thresholds. Nonetheless will still carry
gusts 35-45 mph into Tuesday night with some consideration for
wind headlines (and potentially into Wednesday as well).
The strong winds acting on the falling temperatures (lows in
the 20s to near freezing) will produce winter-like wind chills
in the teens to low 20s, with mid-20s wind chills toward eastern
MA and the Cape.
Wednesday - Wednesday Night:
Lots of sunshine, though unseasonably chilly and blustery for
Wednesday. Recent guidance keeps the northwesterly gradient flow
going longer into Wednesday, and will continue to support gusts
to 30-45 mph for most of the day, subsiding late/with sunset.
Thus may need to consider wind headlines into Wednesday but
confidence isn't sufficiently high enough as yet to hoist
headlines. With 925 mb temps around -6 to -8C, mostly sunny but
highs only in the 40s, with apparent temperatures around
freezing across the higher terrain given the NW winds.
NW winds may stay up for the first part of Wednesday night, but
decreasing to light after midnight supporting good radiational
cooling. Should be a frosty morning with lows mid 20s to mid
30s, warmest for the cities and across Cape Cod.
Thursday:
High pressure to still remain in control on Thursday. However
moisture associated with a warm front and warming low-levels to
our south will still result in a considerable amount of clouds.
Any showers that result may prove light if any at all as
boundary layer still looks pretty dry per soundings. Highs
mainly in the 50s.
Thursday Night into the Weekend:
Large upper longwave trough becomes established over Southern
New England in the period, with several shortwave disturbances
aloft rounding this longwave feature. This will favor an
active/unsettled weather pattern with several surface
lows/frontal systems passing through or nearby leading to
periods of rain. Unfortunately that's about all that can be
stated with any level of decent confidence, as significant
variation in the guidance exists in this period, especially when
it comes to timing and strength of each system and on the
northern extent of QPF.
Most of the guidance shows the first system affecting Southern
New England late Thurs night into Fri, as southern-stream trough
and frontal system over the southern Appalachians passes into
the waters near or south of Southern New England. GFS is a
stronger hit to our area, while the ECMWF mainly brings
steadiest rains south of the Mass Pike, and the Canadian barely
brushes the South Coast/Cape.
There may be a break towards Saturday but active unsettled
pattern then resumes Sunday into early next week. Will keep a
blend of guidance in for Saturday into early next week as it is
difficult to have strong confidence with such spread in the
guidance.
Besides the generally rainy pattern, astro tides will start to
rise toward Friday/Saturday and remain on the higher side into
Monday (Boston Harbor runs around 10 ft MLLW). More or less
speaking in broad generalities vs specifics given spread in
guidance, but with the active weather pattern could have some
coastal flood possibilities to monitor if any stronger surface
low becomes more apparent and can produce a prolonged period of
onshore winds and higher seas.
