Area forecast discussion, Feb 16, 1:18 AM EST, 2 hours 18 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Boston/Norton MA
118 AM EST Sun Feb 16 2025
.SYNOPSIS...
A storm system brings a round of wintry precipitation this
evening through Sunday. Precip starts as accumulating snow
before changing to sleet, then rain near the coast, and freezing
rain inland. A cold front brings very strong winds and cold
temperatures Monday. Cold and dry for the middle of next week,
with another chance of snow later in the week with a potential
coastal system.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/...
Key Points
* Light to moderate snow moves in from west to east tonight.
Snow totals range from 2-6 inches south of Rt 2 to 4-8 north
of Rt 2.
* Snow turns to sleet and freezing rain later overnight into
early Sunday morning. Ice accumulation range from 0.15 to 0.35
inches west of I-495
* Moderate to heavy rain Sunday will likely lead to poor
drainage and street flooding. Total QPF amounts between 1.5
to 2.5 inches
Forecast remained largely on track this evening. Only minor
tweaks to bring the forecast back in line with observed trends.
Still expecting visibility to drop markedly late this evening.
Previous Discussion...
Potent upper-level shortwave and strong WAA ahead of a 980mb
surface low will bring just about every precip type to the
region tonight through Sunday. Soundings show temperatures below
freezing through the entire column this evening, allowing P-type
to start as snow. Already seeing some light snow flurries show
up on radar this afternoon. Expect snow to increase in aerial
coverage and intensity this evening as better moisture and QPF
arrive. Models show decent 850mb FGEN this evening, leading to
snow rates of 0.5-1.0 inches per hour, especially across
northern MA. Before the snow ends, expect 4- 8 inches along and
north of Route 2, with 2-6 inches south of Route 2 to the south
coast. As the strong WAA continues, temperatures between 3kft to
9kft warm, well above freezing, while remaining below freezing
from the surface to 3kft. This will lead to a period of light to
moderate sleet late overnight, moving north through early
tomorrow morning.
Temperatures at the surface along the coastal plain will quickly
warm above freezing around sunrise tomorrow morning, allowing
sleet to change over to rain with minimal freezing rain
concerns. Further west across the interior, especially in low
spots across the high terrain, cold air will struggle to scour
out. This will lead to possibly several hours of freezing rain,
where ice accumulation of trace to .35 inches is possible. Any
freezing rain combined with the previously fallen heavy wet snow
will lead to snow/ice load issues on trees and power lines.
Isolated power outages are likely by Sunday afternoon and could
become more widespread as strong winds enter the region with an
approaching cold front.
Total QPF amounts will be around 2 inches, with 2.5 to 3 inches
near the south coast, where 100-300 J/kg of MUCAPE could induce
some convective enhancement and isolated rumbles of thunder. The
rain falling on top of the wet, slushy snow will likely lead to
poor drainage and minor street flooding. MMEFS also shows low
probs for minor river flooding in southern RI.
As for high temperatures on Sunday, a strong temperature
gradient will set up between the coastal Plain and the interior.
Upper 40s to low 50s are possible in southern RI, CT, and SE MA.
Across the interior, highs stay in the 30s as cold air struggles
to scour out. A strong cold front moves west to east Sunday
night, kicking the remaining precip offshore and dropping temps
quickly into the 20s. Any standing water that does not evaporate
will freeze by Monday morning, possibly leading to continued
slick spots on roadways and sidewalks.
&&
.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH 6 PM MONDAY/...
Key Messages:
* Confidence increasing for at least Advisory-level winds Monday
* High temperatures drop into the 20s Monday with the passage of
a strong cold front
Details...
A strong cold front moves through the region Sunday night.
Strong cold air advection kicks in with it, taking temperatures
down from the 40s into the 20s and low 30s. Subsident flow from
the west will dry the area, but any residual moisture on the
ground once the cold air flows in may quickly freeze, which
could lead to possible slick spots on roads and sidewalks.
Forecast soundings continue to show a well-mixed boundary layer
that mixes up to the 850 mb layer, where winds are approaching
60 to 65 kts in some areas due to a strong jet sitting aloft.
If mixing does occur to this height, there's a good chance for
some High Wind criteria gusts, particularly across the higher
elevations (Berkshires and Worcester Hills). Advisory criteria
winds are likely across the rest of the region. For now, we've
opted to keep the High Wind Watch and will evaluate any warning
or advisory decisions in upcoming updates.
Strong winds and mixing of the cold weather aloft down to the
surface will also bring down temperatures for the region. These
winds will also make it feel even colder than it is, with wind
chills in the single digits into the negatives, especially
towards the interior. Wind chills in the low teens during the
day for much of southern New England are also likely.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Key Messages:
* Below normal temperatures, especially early next week. Windy
conditions bring wind chills as low as -15F Monday night.
* Monitoring potential for a coastal storm Wed-Thu.
Powerful low pressure moves past the Maritimes Monday night into
Tuesday. Expecting it will remain quite gusty during this time,
but not nearly as strong as during the day Monday. A sprawling
high pressure centered near the Dakotas will nose eastward
toward our region during the middle of next week. This should
maintain colder and drier weather through at least Wednesday.
Still have lower than normal confidence in the details towards
the end of next week. Still seeing signs for a potential coastal
low pressure, but the track and timing are uncertain. Latest
climatological anomalies are not particularly strong, which may
be the result of disparate ensemble solutions going into the
mean solution. With cold air anticipated to be in place and an
offshore track, this is looking like mainly snow at this time.
Will continue to monitor this projected storm over this coming
week.
&&
.AVIATION /06Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Forecast Confidence Levels:
Low - less than 30 percent.
Moderate - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.
06z TAF Update...Moderate confidence
Early this morning:
Snow transitions to light to moderate sleet/freezing rain from
from south to north through 12z. There is still uncertainty in
the details such as exact precip type during the transition
(sleet vs freezing rain).
Today:
Transition to rain for the coastal areas by about 12z. Can't
rule out a period of freezing rain/sleet before full transition
to rain. Across the interior, but outside the high terrain,
freezing rain follows the sleet, and lasts until roughly 15z.
In the high terrain freezing rain could last for much of the
afternoon. IFR/LIFR CIGS continue through the afternoon.
Tonight:
Cold front sweeps through between 22z-03z, quickly ending any
remaining precip and raining CIGS back to VFR. Very windy behind
the cold front with gusts up to 50 knots.
