Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Boston/Norton MA
1239 AM EST Sat Jan 14 2023

.SYNOPSIS...
A frontal wave of low pressure may cause rain in southeast MA
and a mix of rain and snow in northeast MA overnight. Mainly dry
Saturday. Surface low pressure over the ocean well south of the
40N/70W benchmark early Sunday tracks east then pivots north
toward Nova Scotia on Monday. This may produce accumulating snow
in southeast MA. A warming trend begins Tuesday and continues
through much of next week.

&&

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

12:30 Update...

As expected, light rain has overspread the islands and outer
Cape, and light drizzle has been reported at several terminals
east of i-95 over the last hour. Temperatures continue to
linger above freezing, though are approaching 32F at some of our
western terminals. Fortunately, terminals reporting precip and
terminals below freezing are inversely related, so we are safe
from frozen precip until colder temperatures make their way to
the coast. Otherwise, forecast remains on track.

10 PM Update...

Slow moving cold front continues to move southeast at this hour,
but is progressing slower than previously forecast, with all
observation sites reporting temperatures above freezing at the
latest ob. Several sites across far southeast MA are still
reporting temperatures near 50F.

00Z guidance indicated that there would be an increased chance
in precipitation overnight, with the NAM especially aggressive
on the potential for some light freezing drizzle. Several
factors indicate that the NAM is an outlier solution including
ground/pavement temps that are still well above freezing, very
light precip overnight, and a very slow trend in cooling
temperatures, thus, expecting that any freezing drizzle/sleet
potential will be very isolated, mainly to the communities in
the higher terrain of Middlesex/Essex counties NW of Boston. At
this time, given the NAM is the true outlier solution, and
sufficient meteorological evidence supporting that notion, a
winter weather advisory is NOT being considered. However, a
short fused SPS during the early to mid morning hours is
possible if we see a broad area of frozen precipitation develop;
leading to slick surfaces.

With that said, a persistent drizzle currently is and will
continue to fall over the next few hours as dry air moves in
aloft, with saturation from the surface to about 800mb. Even so,
dry air will try to push in from the NW as the cold air stalls
off the coast, bringing the drizzle potential to an end by the
early AM hours.

Drizzle is expected to be replaced by light rain/snow showers as
the precipitation shield backs in from the east overnight.
Precipitation will be mainly limited to the I-495 corridor, east
across eastern MA and the Cape.

8 PM update...

Cold front has moved into southeast MA and will be exiting the
coast in a few hours. Light rain and drizzle has formed behind
the front in Worcester and Middlesex Counties in central MA.
Satellite imagery shows a baroclinic leaf moving into southern
New England now, with cooling cloud tops. Latest hi-res model
guidance has shifted west with its precipitation shield for the
overnight hours. The NAM 3km shows some light icing in northeast
MA; the HRRR shows a deeper cold layer and light sleet in
northeast MA; the RAP shows categorical probabilities along the
entire eastern MA coast shortly after midnight.

In collaboration with GYX, have upped PoPs to 30-45 percent in
northeast areas of MA through the overnight hours. Precipitation
type ranges from a rain/snow mix at Boston to snow and sleet in
Essex County. A light dusting is possible.

Precipitation exits the region to the northeast by early to mid
morning Saturday.

The next shift will have to assess the rapidity of temperatures
falling and decide if a short-fused Advisory will be needed for
any freezing drizzle or light freezing rain.

Previous discussion...

Cold front in the CT River Valley is moving slowly eastward, given
mid level flow remains from the SW to NE. Thus, temps in the 50s
across eastern CT/RI and central-eastern MA late this afternoon will
fall into the 30s behind the front tonight. Deeper cold air
westward, and will yield lows in the mid to upper 20s across western
CT into western/central MA overnight. It will feel colder as
blustery NNW winds 10-15 kt gusting up to 25 mph at times, in the
post frontal airmass as it overspreads the region. Although, only
seasonably cold for this time of year. Mainly dry weather tonight,
however, you can see in the water vapor loop, a baroclinic leaf
forming along the NC coast and adjacent waters. That's a frontal
wave forming on the boundary, and may clip the outer Cape and
Nantucket with a period of chilly rain overnight. Otherwise, dry
weather prevails.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH 6 PM SUNDAY/...
335 PM update...

Saturday...

Frontal wave east of Cape Cod exits to the NE. Short wave ridging
develops over SNE, providing dry weather. Although, with frontal
boundary just offshore, moist NNE flow along with some upslope into
the Worcester Hills, will yield lots of clouds. Best chance for
sunny breaks should be in the CT River Valley and points westward.
Chilly airmass combined with lots of clouds will only yield highs 35-
40, highest temps over Cape and Islands. It will feel chilly given
brisk NNE winds around 15 mph, gusting up to 25 mph across Cape Cod
and the Islands. Again, seasonably cold for mid Jan.

Saturday night...

Potent vertically stacked low develops off the NC coast. Mid level
warm air wraps cyclonically around the mid level circulation,
pivoting toward southeast MA daybreak Sunday. Model soundings
suggest column cold enough for snow over southeast MA, possibly
mixed with sleet as warm layer advects around 800 mb. Boundary layer
may be warm enough over Cape Cod and Islands for a rain/snow mix.
Precip intensity appears light, at least at the onset.

Elsewhere, dry cold weather prevails. NE winds noticeably increase
as system intensifies offshore. May eventually need wind advisories
for southeast MA with NE winds potentially gusting 40-50 mph.
Seasonably cold Sat night, with lows in the 20s, to low/mid 30s over
Cape and Islands. It will feel colder given increasing NE winds.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
405 PM update...

Highlights...

* Ocean storm may be close enough to produce accumulating wet
  snow over far southeastern MA Sunday into early Monday.

* Warmer temperatures begin Tuesday and last through next week.

Sunday into Monday...

Still expecting a mid level closed low off the the mid-Atlantic
coast to move slowly northeast Sunday and Monday, taking on a
slight negative tilt. At the surface, a rather tight low
pressure system located about 175 miles south of the 40N/70W
"Benchmark" will be slowly deepening, as it travels along the
edge of the Gulf Stream. We now have increased confidence that
the precipitation shield from this storm will reach far enough
northwest to affect Cape Cod and the Islands as well as interior
southeast MA and perhaps even reaching the I-95/I-495 corridor
for a time.

The precipitation type and amounts are still very much in
question, however. Models indicate very cold temperatures at
925 mb...near -7C...presumably from diabatic cooling processes.
There is a bit of a warm layer above 800 mb. Thus, sleet is a
possibility, especially over far southeast MA, mainly north of
the Cape Cod Canal. Surface temperatures will be above freezing
during the day Sunday throughout southeast MA with upper 30s on
Nantucket. Rain is expected to start over the Islands then the
shield spreads northwestward and mixes with sleet and snow late
in the afternoon.

Onshore winds over Cape Cod...from the N to NNE...will add to
the delay in accumulation because sea surface temperatures are
in the 40s. However, by Sunday evening and during Sunday night,
as temperatures cool, accumulations are more likely on Cape Cod
and interior southeast MA. Snow to liquid ratios will be low, on
the order of 8:1 (a wet snow), which will limit accumulations.
But, we cannot rule out a period of some ocean-effect
enhancement, with a 12-degree differential (-7C at 925 mb and
+5C ocean temp). For now, have indicated 1-2 inches of
accumulation from about Hull to Plymouth and as far west as
Brockton/Bridgewater.

Model 10:1 amounts are much higher than this, but notable that
the snow depth changes are in line with our forecast and with
WPC's forecast.

The 12Z run of today's ECMWF indicates that snow also develops
from the northeast and spreads SW into northern MA as far west
as Fitchburg and Worcester during the day on Monday, as the
system heads toward Nova Scotia and becomes negatively tilted.
Am not forecasting this as yet. This forecast will need to be
monitored, since it will likely be changing somewhat.

North to north-northeast winds will gust to 30-40 mph along the
east coast of MA Sunday into Monday and a Gale Watch has been
posted through at least Sunday.

Monday night through Friday...

Weak high pressure will bring a short period of clearing Monday
night and Tuesday, with highs reaching the lower to mid 40s.

A weak short wave disturbance traverses the region Tuesday
night. It could generate a hundredth or two of precipitation,
mainly north of the Mass Pike. Can't rule out some light
freezing rain in the highest terrain in the slopes of the
Berkshires or northern Worcester Hills.

A quiet day is expected Wednesday with partly cloudy skies and
temperatures climbing to 45 to 50.

Another storm approaches from the southwest on Thursday with a
good chance of rain that could start as a flake or two of snow
at the onset in western areas. Rain ends early Friday. Highs in
the 40s.
