Area forecast discussion, Oct 13, 3:12 AM EDT, 53 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Boston/Norton MA
312 AM EDT Thu Oct 13 2022
.SYNOPSIS...
A strong cold front brings the potential for heavy showers and
gusty winds later today into early Friday. There may be a few
thunderstorms as well. Behind this front, drier weather into
this weekend with seasonable temperatures. Unsettled weather
looks to return early next week with the next frontal system.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/...
The main weather story for today remained an approaching cold
front, and the potential for locally heavy rainfall. While this
front is likely not to arrive until late today, regional radars
already showing evidence of the low level warm air advection
already underway early this morning. Last few runs of the HRRR
and time-lagged HRRR we handling these showers the best. Looking
at scattered showers across the western half of southern New
England this morning, then an increasing risk for more
widespread rain arriving from west to east this afternoon. That
said, still thinking the majority of the rainfall will fall
later this evening.
Southerly flow continues, but less sunshine will mean lower high
temperatures than yesterday, but still about 5-8 degrees above
normal.
&&
.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH 6 PM FRIDAY/...
Expecting the most active weather to be from this evening until
early morning Friday. A cold front will continue its slow
eastward progress across southern New England, but is not
expected to move offshore until Friday afternoon. Expecting
periods of rain to linger across the eastern half of southern
New England into Friday afternoon.
Overall rainfall totals should be about 1-2 inches, with
locally higher amounts up to 3 inches. Not thinking these
amounts of rainfall will lead to widespread flooding, so have
not issued a Flood Watch. Will still need to watch out for
poor-drainage flooding, especially with the possibility of
leaf-clogged drains.
Lapse rates are not ideal to support thunderstorms across our
region. Given the timing of the cold front, thunderstorms are
more likely to our west, but not impossible to have a few
thunderstorms across southern New England during the late
evening hours. Any thunderstorms would locally enhance
rainfall, so this will need to be monitored overnight.
Also considered a Wind Advisory for the Cape and islands, as
well as Cape Ann. Just did not have the confidence to issue one
at this time. Thinking it is more likely wind gusts stay just
under the threshold for one. The next shift will need to monitor
this potential as well.
&&
.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Highlights...
* Any lingering rain tapers off Friday night into early Saturday
across eastern areas. Dry on Saturday as high pressure nudges
in.
* Spotty rain showers possible on Sunday. Better shot for more
widespread rain Monday into Tuesday.
* Still could have lingering spotty rain on Wednesday.
Friday night through Saturday...
Cyclonic flow in place as a cutoff rotates over the Great Lakes
into Ontario. A shortwave lifts from the Mid Atlantic Fri
evening into Quebec by early Saturday. A more potent shortwave
lifts into and through the eastern Great Lakes on Saturday. A
mid level ridge builds across the Southeastern US on Saturday.
The cold front will push offshore late Friday or early Saturday.
Behind the front, high pressure nudges in as it builds offshore
from the Carolinas.
Still could have some lingering precip across eastern portions
of the CWA late on Friday heading into early Saturday. Not super
confident at this point as guidance is a bit spread on how
quickly the front and any precip associated with it moves
offshore. Will note per ensemble cluster analysis that the
majority of members, 58, feature a slower solution. The
driest/quickest contains 24 members and the remainder is
essentially a compromise between the two. Should note that the
ensemble systems at this point matching their deterministic
guidance where the EPS/ECWMF is the slowest, the GEFS/GFS is the
most progressive and the GEPS/GEM is a compromise. CAMs also
are a bit all over the place, so confidence is lower than would
like for the start of the extended.
Should see clearing skies from west to east with winds becoming
relatively light as high pressure relaxes the pressure
gradient. Anticipating good radiational cooling, but do have
some uncertainty on how quickly the clouds clear given the
questions on the exiting front. For now went with the 25th
percentile of guidance for lows Fri night into early Sat, which
results in fairly widespread 40s across the interior and low/mid
50s for the coastal plain.
Should see temps rebound nicely on Saturday as we tap into SW
flow. This will bring 925 hPa temps up to 10-14 degrees Celsius.
Highs top out in the upper 60s to low 70s.
Sunday...
Cutoff over the Great Lakes/Ontario lifts into northern Quebec.
In response a trough digs into the Great Lakes and lifts into
the eastern Great Lakes/New England by late Sunday. A broad low
may lift into our region bringing us an opportunity for some
spotty showers.
Deterministic guidance is a bit all over the place with regards
to precip on Sunday, so have leaned on the ensembles. Per
cluster analysis of ensemble guidance all show some form of
light precip over our area during the afternoon/evening. At this
point 74 members out of the 100 are more widespread with light
rain over our region. Leaned toward this guidance at this point,
so had to bump chances up from the default NBM. Still mild as
the cooler air does not punch in until late Sunday. Highs range
from the mid 60s to the low 70s.
Early next week...
Next shot for unsettled weather. A deep low/cutoff digs from
northern Canada into the Great Lakes region at some point during
this timeframe. At this point not certain how things will
evolve, but most of the variance int he Mon/Tue period is due to
the location of the cutoff and then the intensity. Should see a
secondary low develop nearby or over our region. This will
bring the risk of more widespread rains. At this point just
stuck with the NBM given the uncertainty. Temperatures will be
trending cooler than normal. Should see readings in the upper
50s to mid 60s on Monday and generally 50s on Tuesday.
Midweek...
Cutoff low still nearby or over our region. Does look like it
could be potentially a bit drier as drier air punches in from
the SW. Not sold on this solution given the uncertainties in the
previous section and if the cold cutoff is over us there would
likely be more widespread spotty showers. Have stuck with NBM
for now, but may need to increase precip chances in future
updates depending on the position of the cutoff. Highs range
from the 40s to 50s.
&&
.AVIATION /07Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
Forecaster Confidence Levels:
Low - less than 30 percent.
Medium - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.
Today...High Confidence.
VFR to start over the eastern areas. MVFR ceilings over the
western areas spread eastward to BOS/PVD/HYA/ACK/FMH by mid to
late afternoon. Scattered showers this morning across the
western half of our region, becoming more widespread this
afternoon.
Tonight and Friday...High confidence in trends, moderate
confidence in exact timing.
Showers intensify to areas of heavy rainfall as a cold front
works its way across southern New England. This will come with
mainly IFR ceilings and MVFR visibilities. SSE winds from 15 to
20 knots with gusts up to 30 knots possible. Strongest wind
gusts will be across the southeastern terminals. This front
should finally move offshore Friday.
Outlook /Friday Night through Monday/...
Friday Night: VFR. Breezy. Slight chance RA.
Saturday through Saturday Night: VFR.
Sunday: VFR. Slight chance RA.
Sunday Night: VFR. Chance RA.
Monday: VFR. RA likely.
&&
.MARINE...
Forecaster Confidence Levels:
Low - less than 30 percent.
Medium - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.
Increasing winds and seas ahead of an approaching cold front
today. Southerly/southeast winds increase to Small Craft
Advisory quickly this morning. Have the greatest confidence in
gales across the eastern outer coastal waters tonight, where a
Gale Warning has been posted. Could see a few gusts up to 35 kt
across the other coastal waters. Besides increasing winds and
rough seas, the potential for heavy showers or possible
lightning could occur early Friday morning on some of the
southern waters, a risk which could continue into the daytime
hours Friday.
Outlook /Friday Night through Monday/...
Friday Night: Winds less than 25 kt. Areas of rough seas.
Chance of rain, isolated thunderstorms.
Saturday through Sunday: Winds less than 25 kt. Seas up to
5 ft.
Sunday Night: Winds less than 25 kt. Seas up to 5 ft. Chance of
rain.
Monday: Winds less than 25 kt. Seas up to 5 ft. Rain likely.
