The local office's own words before this gale warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

Area forecast discussion, Nov 10, 12:22 AM EST, 37 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Boston/Norton MA
1222 AM EST Mon Nov 10 2025
.SYNOPSIS...
Rain with a few rumbles of thunder possible through early
tonight. Fog and drizzle overnight behind main batch of rain. A
strong cold front moves through the area on Monday, with mild
temperatures to start but then sharply falling through Monday
afternoon. Breezy with below normal temperatures on Tuesday.
Slight improvements in temperatures Wednesday before a
reinforcing trough arrives later next week.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THIS MORNING/...
Key Messages:
* Rain pushes northward into region late afternoon-early this
evening. Few rumbles of thunder possible.
* Overcast, generally dreary tonight with mist/drizzle after
main batch of rain exits.
Details...
SPC mesoanalysis shows the warm front pushing into the south coast and
Cape/Islands. Radar shows showers moving northward across
southern New England with more widespread rain just offshore of
the south coast. Some with embedded convective showers/tstorms.
Showers are expected to increase over the next several hours
from south to north as the warm front moves north. With this
batch of rain, the highest coverage of showers will be across
eastern southern New England. Marginal elevated instability will
accompany the front which has been shown in the latest
mesoanalysis just south of the region. This favor convective
showers with briefly higher rain rates and perhaps a rumble of
thunder. This potential will be more favored across the south
coast and southeast MA.
The surface low and warm front will continue to lift north into New
England early tonight with flow becoming southerly on the backside. As
the better forcing and deeper moisture exit, this will put an end to
the rain/showers. Model soundings indicate drying in the layers aloft
overnight; however, the warm/moist advection will keep the lower layer
saturated favoring areas of drizzle as well as some fog. Temperatures
tonight will stay on the mild side given the warm advection and clouds
with temperatures staying in the 50s for many areas and upper 40s for
northern MA and higher elevations.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH 6 PM TUESDAY/...
Key Messages:
* Overcast but a mild start to Monday morning with temps in the
mid/upper 50s.
* Strong cold front moves through from west to east this morning
through late afternoon. Brings another round of rain ahead of
front.
* Sharply falling temperatures behind the front. Falling into
20s/30s in western MA/CT by 10 PM.
Details:
Monday and Monday Night:
The morning will start off mild, drizzly, overcast with the high
temperatures of the day taking place (50s) and by early Tuesday morning
temperatures will likely have dropped into the 20s and 30s. Quite a
change! So what is to blame? An amplified trough will push eastward
across the Great Lakes and mid-atlantic states on Monday, eventually
pushing in cold temperatures behind a cold front. Models still appear
to struggling with the timing of the front and how quickly temperatures
crash behind it. A mean of high-resolution guidance moves the front
through Monday morning/early PM across western southern New England and
through eastern portions of southern New England in the afternoon/early
evening. A line of showers/rain will move across ahead of the front.
Behind the front/rain, conditions will improve as dry air aloft works
in toward the evening. Temperatures continue to crash as a cold airmass
works in with readings falling into the mid-upper 20s for most, with
low 20s possible for the higher elevations even despite elevated west
winds behind the front. Coastal areas fall into the 30s with breezier
conditions (Gusts 20-30 mph). More wind to come Tuesday...
&&
.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
Key Messages...
* Gusty, biting wind expected on Tuesday as high temperatures in the
upper 30s and low 40s will feel more like the upper 20s and low
30s.
* A few lingering show showers possible over the Berkshires early
Tuesday.
* Mostly dry and blustery at times Wed through Sun.
Tuesday features much below normal temperatures with even colder
wind chill values. This comes courtesy of a deep upper trough that
digs into the northeast Tue-Wed the axis of which will be crossing
SNE Tue. The unusually cold airmass which settles overhead (850 mb
temps down to -10C) leads to temperatures not making it out of the
upper 20s and low 30s in Tuesday's post frontal airmass. The cold
advection pattern results in a very well mixed boundary layer,
tapping into a 40-50 kt 850 mb jet; model soundings suggest we'll
mix down widespread gusts 30 to 40 mph with potential for scattered
gusts up to 45 mph. This will make temps feel more like the upper
20s (high elevations) to low 30s. Tuesday is mostly dry as the
column rapidly desaturated behind the front, but some
orographically enhanced snow flurries/showers are possible
especially the first half of the day with some low level
moisture streaming off the Great Lakes. Expect a mix of clouds
and sun.
Wednesday through at least Friday we'll feel the influence of a
lingering trough over the northeast keeping temperatures cooler than
average generally in the upper 40s. A few weak disturbances round
the trough leading mainly to some orographic rain/snow showers and
ocean effect showers offshore, but the column remains largely dry
which should prevent any widespread precipitation for the week and
into the weekend as a brief ridge approaches around the weekend.

.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
Astronomical tides are still running high coming out of the full
moon from late in the week, but should continue to fall into
Monday. Continuing to monitor the high tides Monday morning at
Nantucket for possible minor coastal flooding, with Stevens
Institute supporting about a 1 ft storm surge. However, Stevens
Institute guidance keeps means borderline minor flood stage for
Nantucket. The "reasonable worst case" indicates there is
potential for Nantucket to reach minor flood stage Monday. Since
it is so borderline, we will hold off for now on any headlines,
but can't rule out a little splash over during the high tide
tomorrow.
