Area forecast discussion, Jan 29, 6:58 PM EST, 37 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Boston/Norton MA
658 PM EST Sat Jan 29 2022
.SYNOPSIS...
A powerful winter storm will exit the region as it lifts
northeastward into Nova Scotia tonight. Minor coastal flooding
will impact much of eastern Massachusetts this evening.
Dangerously cold wind chills are anticipated for parts of the
region. This is due to the combination of gusty winds and cold
temperatures. Drier weather returns with below normal
temperatures Sunday before a warm up next week.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY MORNING/...
645 PM Update...
No major changes in the latest update. Main concern is the band
of heavier snowfall over central MA into eastern CT/western RI.
Expect this band to become more diffuse in the 1-3 hrs as colder
drier air advects in from the northwest and the 700 hPa closed low
lifts into the Gulf of Maine. Once this wraps up think there
will still be some light snow until late tonight, but not
anticipating much more in the way of accumulation. Thinking 1-3
inches additionally at the most with the highest totals on the
Cape. Rest of forecast on track.
Highlights...
* Snow coming to an end as the winter storm lifts toward Nova
Scotia.
* Blowing snow remains an issue overnight as winds remain gusty.
Have a very cold airmass moving in behind the system and this
in combination with gusty winds will bring dangerously cold
wind chills to parts of the region.
Closed off 500 hPa low just over/east of southern New England
will lift into Nova Scotia by late tonight.The deep cyclone
associated with this feature will lift into Nova Scotia late
tonight. Behind this system high pressure nudges in from Mid
Atlantic/Carolinas.
Have kept all Winter Weather headlines including the Blizzard
Warnings up as it is still taking a bit for winds to come down
and snowfall to taper off. Actually may be able to gradually
take down these headlines across portions of the interior as the
snow tapers off, but for the most part ending times look good.
The other issue we run into tonight is with the fluffy snow and
strong winds will have blowing snow reducing visibilities and
going over cleared roadways. This could still make travel
hazardous, so folks should probably still stay off the roads to
allow crews to clear things.
Still watching this frontogenetical band over eastern portions
of the CWA to lift northeastward. Currently have it pegged just
NW of the 850-700 hPa Fgen on SPC Mesoanalysis. The RAP has had
a pretty good handle on this for most of the day and expect
this to move northeastward. Thinking this ends by roughly 02Z.
Still may have some light snow until late tonight until the low
moves into Nova Scotia. Anticipate that there could be an
additional 1-3 inches of snowfall with the highest amounts over
Cape Cod as it will take the longest for snow to end here.
Should be over after 06Z. As previously mentioned the main risk
will still be blowing snow overnight as gusts will be 25-40 kts
until 06Z. Gusts diminish to 10-30 kts with the highest values
across the eastern Cape.
Will see northwesterly flow advect in -15 to -20 degree air at
925 hPa. Have nudged down low temps into the single digits above
zero for most of the area except the Cape/Islands where it is in
the low to mid teens. Given the strong winds coupled with the
cold temps expecting dangerously cold wind chills down to
roughly -15 to -20 degrees Fahrenheit. Have hoisted a Wind Chill
Advisory for the eastern slopes of the Berkshires and Worcester
county. Not out of the question that portions of CT need a
headline in future updates.
Coastal flooding...
See coastal flooding section for discussion.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
Highlights...
* Dry and quiet weather with below normal temperatures.
Did not pay too much attention to this period given the winter
storm moving through the region. Ridge axis builds into the
eastern Great Lakes for Sunday before a shortwave lifts through
Sunday night into early Monday. High pressure nudges into the
region just south of us for Sunday and into Sunday night.
No major concerns during this period other than breezy
conditions coming to an end Sunday morning. High temps around 10
degrees cooler than normal for this time of year with readings
in the low to mid 20s. Low temps Sunday night into Monday
generally in the single digits, but not anticipating wind chill
issues given the lack of winds. There will be a bit of
cloudiness Sunday night.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
5 AM update...
Highlights...
* Quiet and increasingly mild weather to follow through much of the
week.
* Rain returns Thursday into Friday
Details...
Sunday and Monday...
A trough east / ridge west pattern continues late weekend and early
in the week while a ridge of high pressure moves in at the surface.
Initial NW mid level flow will bring 850 mb temps down near -15 C on
Sunday making for a cold day with highs only in the low to mid 20s;
fresh snow cover, though, might keep highs a few degrees lower than
that. This, together with breezy winds thanks to the lingering tight
pressure gradient means it will feel more like the single digits and
low teens. Wind gusts to 25 to 35 mph over the water and the cold
temperatures will also lead to freezing spray issues. A Freezing
Spray Advisory is in effect Sunday morning. By Monday that steering
flow becomes more westerly advecting marginally warmer and more
moist air into southern New England. Skies will be clear on Sunday
with a mix of clouds and sun on Monday thanks to that increase in
moisture.
Tuesday through Friday...
High pressure moves overhead on Tuesday with an mid level ridge axis
and warming temperatures before our next chance of wet weather on
Wednesday. This as a low passes to our north over the Great Lakes
and northern New England pulling a warm front north across the
region early Wednesday. This brings much milder temperatures with
it, in the mid 40s Wednesday and near 50 Thursday, along with
scattered rain chances on Wednesday. The cold front hangs up to our
west, keeping the region beneath moist southwest flow through at
least Thursday. PWATs surge over one inch on Thursday ahead of the
cold front and incoming mid level trough. Forcing from the trough,
cold front, and right rear quadrant of a 150 kt upper jet will work
together with all that moisture to bring a soaking rain around
Thursday or early Friday. Too soon for details like timing, whether
it turns to snow on the back side, etc but this could be a decent
slug of rain.
&&
.AVIATION /00Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Low - less than 30 percent.
Medium - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.
Tonight...High confidence in trends, moderate in exact timing.
Moderate snowfall coming to an end with lighter snowfall until
roughly 01-04Z for most, but 06-09Z for the Cape. Slowly improving
to MVFR and eventually VFR ceilings by late tonight. However,
given the fluffy snow and gusty winds will have considerable
blowing and drifting snow across the region late tonight.
Thinking once the gusts get below 20 kts should see this risk
come to an end. Thinking visibilities will be generally in the
MVFR range, but may have some spotty IFR in any higher gusts.
Sunday...High confidence.
VFR with clear skies. Breezy during the morning with W/WNW winds
and gusts of 15-20 kts. Not much of the way of gusts during the
afternoon.
Sunday night...High confidence.
VFR with increasing mid to high clouds. Light SW/S winds.
KBOS Terminal...Conditions gradually improving to MVFR/VFR with
blowing snow until roughly 06-08Z.
KBDL Terminal...Conditions improving to VFR. Could have some
visibility reductions due to blowing snow until roughly 03-06Z.
Outlook /Monday through Thursday/...
Monday through Tuesday: VFR.
Tuesday Night: Mainly VFR, with local IFR possible.
Wednesday: VFR. Slight chance RA.
Wednesday Night: Mainly VFR, with local IFR possible. RA
likely, chance SN.
Thursday: MVFR. Breezy. RA.
&&
.MARINE...
Forecaster Confidence Levels.
Low - less than 30 percent.
Moderate - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.
Tonight...High confidence.
Powerful Nor'easter will lift toward and into Nova Scotia.
NW storm-force gusts should continue until roughly 9 PM to
midnight, then become around gale force (35-40 kt) for the
overnight across the NE waters. Seas will tend to decrease
though some initial 20-25 footers still possible thru midnight
on the eastern offshore waters. By daybreak, expect seas 6-10 ft
on the southern waters, and 9-12 ft with increasing period.
Risk for freezing spray will continue, with improving visibility
as snow tapers off/shifts NE late tonight.
Sunday and Sunday night...High confidence.
Freezing spray continues through Sunday morning, but should
become lighter by the afternoon as the gusty W winds lessen.
Seas of 7-12 feet during the morning diminishing to 4-7 feet by
late Sunday afternoon. Seas fall to 1-4 ft Sunday night.
Outlook /Monday through Thursday/...
Monday through Monday Night: Winds less than 25 kt. Seas
locally approaching 5 ft.
Tuesday: Winds less than 25 kt. Areas of seas approaching 5 ft.
Tuesday Night through Wednesday: Winds less than 25 kt. Seas up
to 5 ft.
Wednesday Night: Winds less than 25 kt. Areas of rough seas.
Chance of rain.
Thursday: Low risk for Small Craft Advisory winds with gusts up
to 25 kt. Rough seas up to 9 ft. Rain likely.
&&
.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
Still expecting minor coastal flooding with this evening's high
tide, thus have kept the coastal flood advisory in effect for
this evening. Stevens Institute guidance still looking good
with surges around 1-2 feet, but gusty winds will be much less
than earlier today along with a lower astro tide.
