Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Boston/Norton MA
1007 AM EST Mon Dec 18 2023

.SYNOPSIS...
A strong storm moving up the eastern seaboard will bring very
strong winds, heavy rain and coastal flooding along the south
coast today. Although conditions to improve late this afternoon
and early tonight, it remains unsettled into Tuesday with clouds
and perhaps a spotty shower. A prolonged dry period sets up
from Wednesday through the weekend. Temperatures will be
seasonable to slightly above normal by late next weekend. Those
hoping for a white Christmas will need to wait for another
chance in 2024, with little to no precipitation expected after
Tuesday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
Main theme of the forecast continues. Widespread rainfall coming
to an end later this afternoon. Strong to damaging winds also
diminish into this evening as winds become southwest. Really
liked the last few runs of the HRRR and NationalBlend, so
updated the rainfall timing to match. Also brought temperatures
back in line with observed trends.

While no lightning was yet detected during the mid morning
hours, radar echoes taking on more of a convective appearance.
Latest SPC mesoanalysis showed marginal mid level lapse rates.
Did maintain a mention of isolated thunderstorms into the early
afternoon, especially across interior southern New England which
should be along the leading edge of the low level jet feeding
into the dry slot moving north into southern New England.

400 AM Update:

Key Points:

* Strong to Damaging Southeast Wind Gusts peaking during the mid
  morning to early afternoon. Highest gusts closest to the
  eastern coast.

* Steady/heavy rains this morning to mid afternoon. Rain could
  be heavy enough to produce street flooding and rapid creek and
  stream rises, especially in interior Southern New England.
  Larger rivers to experience rises long after rain has ended,
  especially on the CT River.

* Moderate Coastal Flooding in Narragansett Bay with Minor to
  Pockets of Moderate Coastal Flooding into Buzzards Bay,
  occurring around the noon high tide. Splashover to very minor
  coastal flooding late afternoon on the North Shore.

Strong, dual-barreled low pressure around 980 to 985 mb was
located over the mid-Atlantic coast, with sfc observations
indicating one low near the Chesapeake Bay and another well
south near the lower portion of the Outer Banks of NC. An
anomalously strong SE low level jet was transporting a plume of
rich moisture from the subtropics northward. Step outside this
morning and you'll feel that rich moisture in the form of
dewpoints in the middle to upper 50s! While there has been
periods of rain with brief downpours overnight, bands of steady
to heavy rains are falling from the lower Hudson Valley and mid-
Atlantic region, pinwheeling northward into western New
England. SE winds have also been increasing of recent as well,
with observed 30 to 35 kt gusts mainly near or SE of I-95.

Conditions will continue to go downhill as low pressure pulls
northward. We still expect this system to produce several
weather- related impacts to Southern New England. Those include
strong to damaging southeast wind gusts, heavy rains especially
in the interior which may lead to urban and poor drainage street
flooding and river/stream rises, coastal flooding along the
southern coast and into the North Shore, and dangerous marine
conditions.

So what's changed? There hasn't been any significant change to
active headlines. With that said, biggest changes overnight has
been to increase the coastal flooding risk in Narragansett Bay;
due to observed surge values running a half to two thirds of a
foot above forecast, several tidal gages in Narragansett Bay are
now expected to reach Moderate flood stage around the noontime
high tide and could approach levels observed last December in
2022. We've also increased rain amounts in interior portions of
MA and CT due to the expanding rain shield, and the heaviest
rains are likely to coincide with the morning commute in these
areas.

Strong to Damaging Winds...

As mentioned - other than in the east slopes of the Berkshires
where cooler (40s) surface temps are permitting less mixing,
gusts elsewhere have been increasing with a peak of 40 mph
observed at PYM. Doppler wind profiler observations indicate the
jet core is still over the lower Hudson Valley and NJ vicinity
with upwards of 80 kt shown at 925 mb! Expect gusts to continue
to increase as we get deeper into the stronger pressure falls
and as this low level jet skirts across New England. We still
expect the peak of the SE winds to occur around mid morning to
early afternoon. Winds will then shift from SE to SW/WSW with
decreasing gusts. 00z HREF 10-m minimum gusts generally support
current forecast values with no changes made to peak gusts from
previous thinking. Impacts will still be most concentrated in
the high wind warning areas. Further inland where wind
advisories are in effect, the combo of soaked ground combined
with the increasing winds could lead to at least isolated wind-
related tree damage.

Rain/Flooding...

Growing signal noted late evening of heavy rains during the
morning commute especially for our western interior CT/MA areas.
Hourly rain rates underneath this band of heavier rains in the
mid atlantic and lower Hudson Valley have been as much as 3/4ths
an inch. These rains will continue to spread northward today.
There is high confidence in the highest rain totals being over
western interior MA/CT. Further east into RI and eastern MA, we
did have quite a bit of rain overnight from passing downpours;
although it looks as though this area may see less overall rain
compared to central/western MA and northern CT. Rain amts were
increased by about a half inch in western sections but were
reduced slightly in eastern MA/RI. Rain generally tapers off to
intermittent showers by mid afternoon and comes to an end from
SW to NE later today.

Flood Watch remains valid and the risk for urban and poor
drainage street flooding and potentially rapid creek and stream
rises is growing, especially into western MA/CT. Larger mainstem
rivers will also experience rises, supported by NERFC forecasts
and the latest MMEFS. Note that e.g. the Connecticut River is
likely to experience rises even well after rain ends in light of
rain/snowmelt occurring upriver.

Coastal Flooding...

See the updated coastal flooding section.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM TUESDAY/...
355 AM Update:

Rapid clearing takes place early tonight with cold advection
occurring on WSW winds. This CAA will maintain some WSW breezes
tonight through mixing/steeper low level lapse rates. There
could be a considerable amt of cloud cover around, especially in
the interior high terrain as a deep upper level trough moves in
from western NY. Another area that may see increased cloud
cover is along the southeast coast associated with a passing
wave of low pressure brushing our far southern outer waters.
Lows tonight in the mid 30s to lower 40s, kept up by the WSW
breezes.

Deep upper trough and its associated cold pocket of air aloft
establishes itself over Southern New England on Tuesday. Cold
temperatures aloft will probably fill cloudiness back in towards
a partly to mostly cloudy look. Wouldn't rule out an isolated
shower or higher-terrain snow shower but think this would be the
exception vs the rule. Temps upper 30s to mid/upper 40s,
warmest east.

&&

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

* Dry and seasonable mid-week through the end of the weekend as
  high pressure builds over the eastern US

* Deep-low pressure system well offshore will support enhanced
  northwest winds along the east coast Wednesday through Friday

Wednesday through Friday

Large surface high pressure system slowly builds east between
Wednesday and Friday. This will be accompanied by a cooler/drier
air mass that could be described as seasonable for late
December in southern New England. Expect highs/lows during this
time frame to range from the upper 30s to mid 40s and low to
upper 20s respectively. Probably the most notable aspect of the
long-term forecast is the expected presence of a deep low
pressure system off the east coast of the US mid to late week.
With high pressure building in from the west, this will support
a strengthening pressure gradient over southern New England.
With a northwest flow and CAA regime in place, this may support
a period of gusty winds along the east coast between Wednesday
night and Friday morning. Gale force gusts look likely over the
east coastal water with wind gusts along the east coast, Cape,
and Islands possibly exceeding 40 mph. Latest suite of ensemble
products highlights a 20 to 30 percent chance of wind gusts
exceeding 40 mph Wednesday night into Thursday morning over The
Cape and Islands. While there looks to be no substantial
precipitation in the long-term forecast, northwest flow over
Cape Cod Bay and a cold pool aloft may support some ocean effect
rain/drizzle over The Cape as well mid to late week. Elsewhere
across the interior expect dry/seasonable conditions and modest
northwest winds.

Next Weekend

High pressure shifts far enough east by the weekend to allow
the pressure gradient to relax and bring an end to the expected
period of gusty winds along the east coast. Column remains dry
enough to support a quiet/seasonable Christmas weekend. Next
signal for active weather appears to be early to mid next week
when a low pressure system may be in the vicinity of the eastern
US. Very vague details at 10 days out, but we'll have more
information on what can be expected by the end of this week.

&&

.AVIATION /15Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Forecast Confidence Levels:

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

Overnight Through Today: High confidence.

Active aviation weather in this period with IFR-LIFR ceilings,
VFR to IFR visibility moderate to heavy rains, strong winds and
low- level wind shear/turbulence.

Ceilings trend IFR to LIFR overnight into early Mon AM as rain
moves northward. Visibilities in rain thru about 10z should stay
3-6 SM with intervals of mist at times. Rain ramps up to steady
moderate to heavy-intensity with IFR visibilities in western
MA/CT airports, then around 12-16z for eastern airports. There
may be rumble or two of thunder near the southeast MA/RI coast.

SE winds to continue to increase in the 09-18z timeframe, with
peak gusts 35-45 kt in the interior, 45-50 kt in the I-95
BOS/PVD corridor airports, and 55 kt Cape and Islands. Low level
jet of 60-80 kt could support areas of turbulence, although
surface winds are likely to be gusty. Winds then shift to SW to
WSW 19-00z with a rapid decrease in gusts to 25-35 kt and
improving ceilings/visibilities to MVFR with that windshift.

Tonight: Moderate to high confidence.

SCT-BKN VFR to MVFR ceilings with better chance at MVFR bases
near the higher terrain. There may be returning MVFR bases over
Cape Cod and Islands as passing secondary wave of low pressure
brushes our southeast outer waters. WSW gusts 25-35 kt
initially, strongest over SE MA/RI/Cape and Islands although
gust speeds decrease a bit to around 20-25 kt thru overnight.

Tuesday: Moderate to high confidence.

Continued SCT-BKN VFR to MVFR bases, though may trend OVC in
the western higher terrain. Could see isolated -SHRA, or -SHSN
in the higher terrain, although drier weather should prevail
most of the time. W to WNW speeds 10-14 kt with gusts 22-23 kt.

KBOS TAF...High confidence in TAF.

MVFR trending to IFR early this morning. 4-6 SM rain showers
trend to an IFR moderate to heavy rain after 13z. Moderate to
heavy rain begins late overnight and lasts through tomorrow
morning. Wind shear of 40-60 knots is possible starting this
evening through tomorrow afternoon. SE winds increase into the
morning, peaking between 15-19z with gusts up to 50 knots. After
19z Monday, winds begin to diminish and ceilings improve to
MVFR.

KBDL TAF...High confidence in TAF.

MVFR to IFR early this morning. Steady light rain becomes heavy
rain with gusty winds to 45 knots through 18z tomorrow. After
18z, should see improvements to MVFR and gusty WSW winds.

Outlook /Tuesday Night through Friday/...

Tuesday Night through Wednesday: VFR. Breezy.

Wednesday Night through Thursday Night: VFR. Windy with gusts
up to 35 kt.

Friday: VFR. Windy with local gusts up to 30 kt.

&&

.MARINE...
Forecaster Confidence Levels:

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

Overall high confidence.

** Dangerous Marine Conditions Today **

SE winds have begun to increase to SCA levels on most waters,
with continued increases expected. Storm warnings remain in
effect for all waters for southerly gusts 50-55 kt, up to 60 kt
over outer waters. Seas will build up to 25 ft over southern
outer waters and 20 ft over eastern outer waters. Rain will
become heavy at times and reduce visibility through this
afternoon, with rapid clearing expected late today.

Winds will shift to WSW late this afternoon and tonight, with
decreasing gusts into the Gale and SCA levels. Will need to add
marine headlines at least for the tonight period, with seas
still well above SCA criteria into Tues.

Outlook /Tuesday Night through Friday/...

Tuesday Night: Winds less than 25 kt. Rough seas up to 12 ft.

Wednesday: Winds less than 25 kt. Rough seas up to 10 ft.
Slight chance of rain.

Wednesday Night: Low risk for gale force winds with gusts up to
35 kt. Rough seas up to 12 ft. Slight chance of rain.

Thursday: Moderate risk for gale force winds with gusts up to
35 kt. Rough seas up to 13 ft. Slight chance of rain.

Thursday Night: Low risk for gale force winds with gusts up to
35 kt. Rough seas up to 12 ft. Slight chance of rain.

Friday: Moderate risk for Small Craft Advisory winds with gusts
up to 30 kt. Rough seas up to 11 ft.

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
400 AM Update:

Observed storm surge levels overnight were running about a half
foot above the prior forecast and the PETSS mean surge guidance
in Narragansett Bay. Water levels have also been slow to
evacuate out of Narragansett Bay in the face of sustained SE
winds. These observations, and that offshore seas of 20 to 25 ft
may yield greater impact through wave action, resulted in an
increase in total water levels in Narragansett Bay. We expect
peak storm surge to take place a couple of hours before noon
high tide of at least 4 ft at Providence/Fox Point with 5 ft
surge a distinct possibility. This is supported by latest PETSS
guidance. Latest forecast now calls for total water levels in
Narragansett Bay to reach Moderate flood stage, and for Fox
Point is at a level not seen since December 26th, 2022.

Coastal flooding of at least minor flooding is expected further
eastward into Buzzards Bay (e.g. New Bedford, Fall River,
Westport area). It is possible but less likely we see moderate
coastal flooding. Thus maintained the Coastal Flood Advisory for
Buzzards Bay.

Still could areas of minor flooding along the North Shore,
especially at Gloucester during the mid afternoon high tide.
Coastal Flood Advisory was maintained for the North Shore. This
area is more exposed to S/SE flow so we issued a coastal flood
advisory. A surge up to 2 ft is forecast which is enough for
minor flooding given wave action. Less of a risk for Boston and
the south shore but can't rule out minor splashover in a worst
case scenario. Would need a 2 ft surge for minor flooding which
may be tough to get with a S wind.
