Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Boston/Norton MA
156 AM EDT Wed Mar 23 2022

.SYNOPSIS...

Dry and quiet weather across the region today. Periods of rain
along with chilly temperatures are expected tonight into
Thursday with light icing expected at the onset across the
highest terrain. Milder temperatures along with mainly dry
weather returns for Friday. A few showers are expected this
weekend, but a washout is not expected with much of the time
featuring dry weather. This will be followed by unseasonably
cold temperatures and a period of gusty winds early next week

&&

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

130 AM and 1015 PM Updates...

Forecast remains on track and have just brought things in line
with the latest observations.

740 PM Update...

Previous forecast is on track. Dry and quiet weather overnight
tonight. With winds diminishing and dew point temperatures in
the teens, should be a good radiational cooling night. Went with
bias corrected MOS guidance for overnight lows. With 925mb
temps around -5C, expect lows in the 20s with even a few upper
teens not out of the question in the normally coldest outlying
locations of western MA. The mild spot will be the urban Heat
Island of Boston with temps bottoming out in the lower 30s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/...

* Quiet weather for much of Wednesday with clouds increasing.

* Widespread precipitation overspreads the region overnight
  Wednesday, beginning as a period of freezing rain across the
  interior higher terrain.

Wednesday...

Mix of sun and clouds with seasonable temps in the mid to upper
40s. Winds shift to a southeasterly direction as a warm front
helps advect 0 to +2C 925 mb air. Much of the day should be dry.

Wednesday night...

1035mb surface high moves east into the Canadian Maritimes as a
low pressure system approaches from the southwest. Anomalous
high PWATs are associated with this system with origins in the
Gulf of Mexico. Initially, near-surface thermal profile will be
cold enough to support freezing rain with a bit of sleet during
precipitation onset across the higher elevation, mainly near and
above 1000 ft. Confidence is high enough for us to hoist a
Winter Weather Advisory for the Berkshires and northern
Worcester Hills. Thursday morning commute may be impacted. See
the long term section for further discussion.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...

Highlights...

* Periods of rain Thu/Thu night with pockets of light freezing rain
  in the morning across the highest terrain mainly over 1K Feet

* Dry and milder weather returns Fri

* A few showers possible this weekend, but not a washout with much
  of the time featuring dry weather

* Unseasonably cold temperatures early next week

Details...

Thursday and Thursday night...

Periods of rain along with chilly temps will be the main story Thu
into Thu night. High pressure over the Canadian Maritimes will
combined with a couple waves of low pressure approaching from the
southwest and west. This will result in a modest southerly LLJ at
850 mb and from an ESE direction at 925 mb. The result will be good
forcing for periods of rain Thu into Thu night along with chilly
onshore flow at the surface. In fact, the high pressure system over
the Maritimes will result in enough residual low level cold air for
pockets of freezing rain in the highest terrain of the Berks and
northern Worcester Hills for a time Thu morning. Any issues will
probably be confined to elevations near or above 1000 feet with the
greatest impacts along the east slopes of the Berks at around 1500
feet. Ptype should change to all rain in these locales by afternoon.

Onshore flow along with the rain will hold high temps in the upper
30s to lower 40s Thursday Northwest of I-95. Southeast of this
region, a warm sector may cross the region depending on the track of
a surface low. This may allow temps to eventually recover well into
the 40s and perhaps even 50s for a time later Thu into Thu night.

Friday...

Low pressure will be lifting into the Canadian Maritimes; resulting
a drier westerly flow of air across our region Fri. While we can not
rule out a few lingering showers; dry weather along with milder
temps should return Fri. Highs should be well into the 50s and it is
not out of the question that a few spots reach 60+.

This Weekend...

A vigorous upper level trough and associated cold pool aloft move
into our region. It appears that the surface low pressure system
will develop too far north and east of our region for significant
precipitation. So while we expect dry weather to dominate much of
the time; the cold pool aloft will probably result in a few showers
at times especially during peak heating/instability. In fact with
500T below -30C would not be surprised if some contain graupel/small
hail. High temps should reach well into the 50s Sat, but probably
only in the 40s to around 50 by Sun as colder air starts to work
into the region.

Monday and Tuesday...

EPS/GEFS guidance in fairly good agreement in unseasonably cold
temperatures working into southern New England. Deep upper level
trough over the Northeast will combined with upper level ridging
over Greenland; creating a strong -NAO. This will allow unseasonably
cold air to work into southern New England. 850T drop below -15C and
its not out of the question they approach -20C. High temperatures
may remain in the 30s on Monday along with gusty northwest winds.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...

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

Through 12Z...High confidence.

VFR with light NW/N winds and increasing high clouds.

Today...High confidence.

VFR with mid/high clouds overspreading the region. Light NNW/N
winds shifting to the NE/E by late morning and SE during the
afternoon. Speeds will be generally around 5 kts or less with
the high overhead.

Tonight...High confidence in trends, moderate in timing.

Starting off VFR, but conditions deteriorating to MVFR/IFR
especially after 06Z as widespread rain overspreads the region.
Will have a period of freezing rain across the higher terrain
near and above 1 kft across interior MA/CT. Could also see a few
spots along the Route 2 corridor that have some sleet mix in
with the rain. Winds out of the SE/E around 10 kts. Gusts of
20-25 kts across the higher terrain and coastal plain.

Thursday...High confidence in trends, moderate in timing.

IFR to LIFR conditions across the region with widespread rain.
May still have a mix of freezing rain/sleet across the higher
terrain until 15-18Z once warmer air changes P-type over to all
rain. Given the cool onshore flow am expecting fairly
widespread stratus/fog with E/SE winds at 10-15 kts. Gusts
around 20-25 kts for most, but will see some 30-35 kt gusts
across the Cape/Islands. Lastly, think there could be some
rumbles of thunder across SE MA/RI as we may get into the warm
sector. Have held off at this point from including a thunder
mention in the forecast, but may be necessary in future updates.

KBOS TAF...High confidence in the TAF.

KBDL TAF...High confidence in the TAF.

Outlook /Thursday Night through Sunday/...

Thursday Night: Mainly IFR, with local MVFR possible. Windy
with local gusts up to 30 kt. RA, FZRA likely.
