Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Boston/Norton MA
331 AM EST Wed Jan 10 2024

.SYNOPSIS...
The worst of the rain and wind will be early this morning, then
taper off after daybreak. Dry weather follows for Thursday and
Friday, before another significant storm will impact the region
Friday night into Saturday bringing another round of strong winds
and heavy rain. Gusty winds continue behind this system into Sunday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
3:30 AM Update...

Already beginning to see improvements across eastern NY and western
areas of southern New England, as a fine line marches from west to
east. Behind this line of heavier downpours and strong winds, we are
seeing a significant decrease in wind gusts. High-res guidance would
suggest the fine line could exit over the eastern waters by 10z! And
behind the fine line area of light to moderate rainfall, though the
cutoff has reached the I-91 corridor as of 3 AM. Expecting this back
edge will move off shore roughly between 6am-7am.

Rainfall based off KBOX is estimated between 1.5 and 3.0 inches, and
has led to urban and poor drainage flooding as well as sharp rises
on creeks and streams. As the rain ends this morning, our attention
moves to the larger rivers, while most are expected to crest at
minor flood stage, there are a few that will go into moderate/major
flood stage into Thursday. Additional details on specific rivers can
be found under the river forecast on our webpage.

Hazards still in effect; Flood Watch, Wind Advisory has been trimmed
back to northern RI and northeast MA... the High Wind Warning
continues without any changes. Do expect many of these headlines
will be taken down by the 7AM update. Those interested in the
coastal flooding, please see the coastal flood section at the bottom
of the AFD.

This afternoon: Still a bit breezy this afternoon, winds are WSW 15
to 25 MPH with gusts of 30 to 40 MPH. There could be an isolated
gust that reaches advisory criteria, but confidence remains low that
it occurs. Never the less, saturated grounds and strong winds could
comprise some trees. Temperatures continue to fall through the 40s
after reaching a high in the low 50s early this morning. While the
rest of the day is trending dry, the cyclonic flow and remaining low
level moisture could aid in a few spot shower or flurry across the
higher terrain of NW MA.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/...
3:30 AM Update...

Tonight: A quiet night ahead for southern New England, the once
robust storm reaches the entrance of the Saint Lawrence River this
evening, while our region experiences pressure rises. The entire
northeast is under cyclonic flow due to the closed mid-level low
centered over eastern Quebec. WSW winds overnight, with gusts
between 15-25 MPH. One forecast struggle, how much clearing will
occur. High-res guidance is hammering that we clear out, but the
synoptic models continue to show some low-level moisture, that could
provide some cloud cover overnight. Did trend the forecast more
cloudy across the interior and fewer clouds across southeast MA and
RI. Lows in the upper 20s and lower 30s.

Thursday: Expecting a quiet day ahead, though a shortwave does pass
through southern New England. As this energy moves across southern
New England there is little available moisture, PWATs are generally
less than 1/3rd of an inch. Outside of added mid-level cloud cover,
it is possible to squeeze a few flurries out across the high terrain
of northwest MA during the late morning and early afternoon. Steady
WSW wind 10-15 MPH. Afternoon highs, upper 30s and lower 40s.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
Highlights:

* Quiet and dry into Friday with above normal temperatures

* Another strong storm system with a multitude of impacts
  expected Friday Night into Saturday

* Winds remain strong Sunday, with near to slightly below normal
  temperatures

* Not as windy early next week. Lower risk for more precipitation,
  especially Tuesday.

Much of this portion of the forecast will feature a broad mid level
trough over the CONUS. Have moderate confidence in the forecast
details through Saturday, which then falls to low confidence Sunday
into Tuesday as the timing differences of certain features in
the guidance suite become too large.

At the surface, expecting yet another low pressure to move from the
Ohio Valley into the Great Lakes Friday into Saturday. This will
leave southern New England on the warmer side of this system,
setting the stage for more rainfall and possibly some gusty winds.
While there are some similarities with the current storm Wednesday,
the standardized anomalies are just a little smaller. Thus, thinking
our region should see slightly lower rainfall and winds. That may
not mean much if flooding persists into this weekend, as any
additional rainfall would only exacerbate flooding.

There does appear to be a window for some snow at the onset across
portions of NW MA and the northern Worcester Hills. This should
transition over to rainfall. Will need a better handle on
temperatures to pinpoint this risk with confidence.

Latest National Blend of Models probabilistic guidance is not as
robust with winds across much of our region. Will still need to
consider some wind headlines towards the coast, especially across
the Cape and islands. Some risk also for the Worcester Hills and
towards the Berkshires (40-60%). Will monitor this aspect closely
over the coming days.

This storm should depart into southeast Canada by Sunday morning.
However, gusty winds should linger through much of the day. Southern
New England looks to remain in between a pair of high pressures: one
over the North Atlantic, and the other towards the Rockies.
Currently thinking Monday is likely drier than Tuesday. Most of the
latest guidance suite has a low pressure along the SE coast of the
USA. This does not look to be overly potent, but enough to bring a
risk for some showers. Have little confidence in the timing details
of this low pressure at this time, as the spread in the mid level
flow pattern is rather large.

&&

.AVIATION /09Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
Forecast Confidence Levels:

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

06z TAF update:

Through 12z... Moderate confidence. A mixture of LIFR/IFR for
the most, but MVFR on Cape Cod & the Islands along with poor
vsby, between 2-4 SM due to +RA. SE winds continue to gust
between 35-45 kts at coastal terminals, while across the
interior stronger gusts have been hard to achieve, still the
potential is the for SE gusts 25-35 kts. Additionally, there is
60 to 80 knots of wind shear.

Today... High confidence. Conditions improve quickly, west to
east, from LIFR/IFR to MVFR/VFR, between 12z and 15z. Breezy SW
wind 10-20 kts with gust to 30kts.

Tonight... High confidence. VFR, some low end VFR to MVFR
possible across NW MA, decreasing winds out of the SW 10-15 kts.

Thursday... High confidence. VFR, and isolated MVFR CIGS across
high terrain of northern MA. SW wind 10-15 kts.

KBOS TAF... High confidence. A robust storm provides ESE wind
gusts up to 45 kts through 10z/11z, wind shifts to the SW late
morning into early afternoon, with gust between 25/30 kts. CIGS
this morning are IFR, but should see improvements to MVFR
10z-12z, this will coincide with the end of the rainfall before
becoming VFR shortly after.

KBDL TAF... Moderate confidence, low confidence in winds. Wind
forecast has been difficult, have edge the wind gust lower
through 09z, until then ESE wind 10-20 kts possible. Wind shifts
to the SW with increasing wind gust to 25 kts. This coincides
with the end of the rainfall. IFR to MVFR between 09z and 12z,
then becoming VFR 13z to 15z.

Outlook /Thursday Night through Sunday/...

Thursday Night: VFR. Breezy.

Friday: VFR.

Friday Night: MVFR/IFR conditions possible. Strong winds with
gusts up to 50 kt. RA, chance FZRA, isolated TSRA.

Saturday: MVFR/IFR conditions possible. Strong winds with gusts
up to 50 kt. RA, isolated TSRA.

Saturday Night: Mainly VFR, with local MVFR possible. Strong
winds with gusts up to 45 kt.

Sunday: VFR. Strong winds with gusts up to 40 kt.

&&

early this morning are gusting to 50-55 kt, these winds diminish
after daybreak as the low level jet moves to the east. Winds
shift to SW Wed with 30-40 kt gusts. Seas 20-25 ft over outer
southern waters slowly lower throughout the late afternoon into
Thursday, which should provide dry weather.

Outlook /Thursday Night through Sunday/...

Thursday Night: Low risk for Small Craft Advisory winds with
local gusts up to 30 kt. Areas of rough seas.

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
We are expecting minor to moderate coastal flooding during high
tide this morning. Impressive 24-hour pressure falls exceeding 40
mb, combined with strong S/SE winds will result in a peak surge of 2-
3 ft along the east coast of MA and 3-4 ft along the south coast.
However, in Narragansett Bay, have already seen a 4-5 ft surge. The
good news so far is that this surge occurred during the early
morning low tide, mitigating the coastal flood impacts.

Still thinking widespread minor coastal flooding, with areas of
moderate coastal flooding along the south coast of RI and MA. No
changes to ongoing coastal flood headlines this morning.

We also remain concerned with ocean-exposed coastline, as very high
seas just offshore will make the flood risk worst than the tides
would otherwise suggest. Beach erosion is also a concern.

While winds will be shifting to SW toward high tide on the east
coast of MA, wave energy will be directed toward the coast for
several hours preceding the high tide.
