WLWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Boston/Norton, MA wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Dec 18, 9:30 PM EST, 22 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Dec 18, 9:30 PM EST, 22 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Boston/Norton MA
930 PM EST Mon Dec 18 2023
.SYNOPSIS...
Although conditions 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 this weekend. Breezy conditions persist
through Friday. Temperatures will be near to below normal
through this 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 /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
10 PM Update...
Winds have finally calmed down across the region with gusts
dropping below 30mph. There is a chance for more showers over
Cape Cod and the Islands overnight as a weak surface trough is
able to tap into moisutre rich southerly flow at 850mb.
Accumulations overnight should generally remain less then a
1/10th of an inch.
Previous discussion.
A powerful low pressure finally moves into northern New England
this evening, then farther north overnight. This will bring an
end to the rainfall from south to north late this afternoon.
While remaining gusty, wind speeds also will diminish. Thinking
we may be able to drop the current land-based wind headlines, at
some point before 7 PM this evening, especially across interior
southern New England. Will be making that decision within the
next hour or so.
Well above normal low temperatures expected tonight. Many
locations should have low temperatures around what would be a
normal high temperature for mid December.
&&
.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT/...
Deep mid level trough and its associated cold pocket of air
aloft establishes itself over our region Tuesday. Cold air aloft
will result in some diurnal cloudiness. Thinking mainly dry
conditions, but still cannot completely dismiss the idea of an
isolated shower, especially across the higher terrain. Slight
bump in in temperatures during the day, before falling off
during the afternoon and evening.
Turning even drier Tuesday night. West to northwest winds
diminish further. Near normal low temperatures.
&&
.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
Highlights
* Quiet and dry conditions
* Near to below normal temperatures
* Breezy through Friday esspically over the waters.
A strong 1035mb high begins to build north from the mid-Atlantic
states and merge with a 1045mb high dropping out of Ontario. This
will lead to a prolonged stretch of quiet and dry weather for
southern New England. As the surface highs move towards the region,
the pressure gradient will remain tight being sandwiched between the
remnants of Mondays low pressure system stalling offshore and even
intensifying a bit. What this will lead to is breezy conditions
lasting through Friday. Gusts inland wont be anywhere as strong as
we saw Monday topping out at 20-30mph on Thursday. Over the waters
and near the shores, Gale force gusts are possible with the latest
NBM showing 50-80% chance for gusts of 40mph mainly Thursday.
Starting Friday night, the center of the high pressure moves
overhead allowing the pressure gradient to relax and winds to calm
down. With little to no wind Friday night and beyond, overnight lows
likely begin to drop into the mid to low teens away from the coasts
with clear skies. Used a blend of the MOS guidance and NBM for
overnight lows Friday and beyond. As for highs, there will be a
downward trend through Friday and Saturday only topping out in the
mid to upper 30s. Next chance for precipitation could come Sunday
with the GFS showing a weak low exiting the Great Lakes, however,
the GFS appears to be an outlier at this time with ensembles showing
around a 10% chance for accumulating precip.
