Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Boston/Norton MA
429 PM EDT Sun Aug 7 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
Heat and humidity will continue to be the main weather story
well into next week. Heat Advisories continue through Monday.
A cold front will bring a better chance of thunderstorms on
Tuesday. The front will stall just south of the area Wednesday
with low pressure passing along it, which might bring welcome
rain Wednesday into Thursday. While the heat will break on
Wednesday, the humidity won't ease up in a meaningful way until
Friday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
Forecast is on track this afternoon, with cumulus bubbling across
southern New England but only sparse showers so far which continue
to pulse up and quickly collapse. As we go through the afternoon the
coverage of showers and storms may increase, mainly along and north
of the MA pike. Mesoanalysis shows 2000-2500 J/kg of CAPE but with
no shear and lackluster mid level lapse rates which should keep any
thunderstorms of the garden-variety. With sunset and loss of diurnal
heating storms will rapidly diminish in coverage leaving mostly
clear skies, save for the south coast where low level moisture will
once again bring the threat of low stratus to the Cape and islands.
Low temps will be quite warm owing to the very moist airmass, in the
mid 70s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
Monday we rinse and repeat, as has been the story for days now. The
hot and humid airmass remains overhead  with little change to speak
of. SW winds continue and advect in marginally warmer air in the low
levels (850 mb temps increase from 18C to 19-20C) so temperatures
will be a few degrees warmer, especially in the Connecticut Valley.
Highs in the low to mid 90s and dewpoints in the mid 70s mean
another day of heat indices at or above 100F. Instability will once
again be high (CAPE >1500 J/kg) with poor shear (though a bit higher
than Sunday). Not expecting a severe threat with any storms that pop
up on Monday afternoon and evening. Any convection that does fire
will die down after sunset leaving a dry forecast for the overnight
hours. Increasing winds late in the day and overnight will take the
edge off, especially along the south coast and offshore.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
Highlights...

* Hot and humid Tuesday with a slow moving cold front bringing
  the likelihood of afternoon and evening thunderstorms.

* Low pressure moving along the front just south of New England
  may bring a period of welcome rain Wednesday into Thursday.

* Heat will break on Wednesday, but humidity won't return to
  comfortable levels until Friday.

Tuesday and Tuesday night...

Models are now more in line with the cold front sagging
southward across our region Tuesday and Tuesday night. Ahead of
the front, high temperatures are forecast to again rise to
between 90 and 95 degrees, with heat indices reaching 96-102,
highest in northern CT and in RI and interior southeast MA.

The front will provide the focus for more numerous showers and
thunderstorms than today or Monday. CAPE will be moderately
high, but there is little in the way of shear to support
organized severe storms. With that much heat and humidity, there
undoubtedly will be a isolated severe storm that pops up,
however. Also, there could be localized street flooding with
any slow-moving storms.

Wednesday and Thursday...

The front slips just south of New England then stalls, with
weak low pressure traveling along it. We will have much cooler
northeast wind flow, with highs only from 76-83, bringing an
end to the heat wave. Ensembles signal a decent chance of a
much-needed rather wipdespread soaking rainfall from Wednesday
into Thursday, with the highest probabilities Wednesday night.
There could be an isolated rumble of thunder, mainly along the
south coast. Rainfall totals could approach 1 to 1.5 inches in
some areas. Tough to forecast this when we've been so dry...will
fine tune as time goes on.

Friday through Sunday...

Significant model differences Friday through Sunday.
Ensembles still show clearing skies Friday and mainly dry
weather through the weekend. But operational ECMWF shows strong
upper low cutting off to our west, becoming negatively tilted,
and spawning another coastal low that brings additional rain
chances here Friday and Saturday. GFS also has upper low
developing over SNE with coastal low and rain chances in
easternmost SNE Saturday. In any case, cooler weather prevails
through the weekend. Stay tuned for more revisions in upcoming
forecasts for this period.
