The episode as NWS BOX wrote it up.
An upper level disturbance pushed a cold front through southern New England, resulting in showers and thunderstorms. With plenty of instability available, some of the storms became severe, producing damaging winds.
The local office's own words before the first event, 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 the first event at Jun 17, 3:39 PM EST, 1 hour 19 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TAUNTON MA
439 PM EDT MON JUN 17 2013
.SYNOPSIS... A SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT WILL BRING SCATTERED SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING. ANOTHER ROUND OF
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS ARE ANTICIPATED TUESDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING.
LARGE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING MAINLY DRY AND SEASONABLE CONDITIONS
WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...THEN WILL ANCHOR SOUTH OF NEW ENGLAND
SATURDAY. AN APPROACHING WARM FRONT MAY BRING WIDELY SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS NEXT WEEKEND.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 10 PM THIS EVENING/...
***SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH FOR ALL BUT THE CAPE AND ISLANDS
THROUGH 9 PM THIS EVENING***
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUED TO DEVELOP ACROSS
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND LATE THIS AFTERNOON. SPC MESO-ANALYSIS SHOWS
THAT 0 TO 6 KM SHEAR VALUES ON THE ORDER OF 40 TO 50 KNOTS. THE
MLCAPE VALUES WERE ONLY BETWEEN 500 AND 1000 J/KG SINCE SURFACE
DEWPOINTS HAVE MIXED OUT INTO THE MID TO UPPER 50S. SO FAR...THIS
HAS RESULTED IN MANY THUNDERSTORMS STRUGGLING TO ATTAIN SEVERE
LIMITS ACROSS THE REGION.
THE MAIN QUESTION IS DO SOME OF THESE STORMS BECOME SEVERE. STILL
THINK THAT THERE IS STILL A WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY ACROSS THE NEXT
FEW HOURS...ESPECIALLY IF THE DEWPOINTS INCREASE A FEW DEGREES LIKE
SOME OF THE MODELS SHOW. STRONG SHEAR OF 40 TO 50 KNOTS WILL
CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING...SO IF WE CAN INCREASE THE CAPES A BIT
MORE IT MAY NOT TAKE TOO MUCH TO GET A FEW GOOD STORMS GOING.
THEREFORE...WILL CONTINUE THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH UNTIL 9 PM
THIS EVENING FOR ALL BUT THE CAPE AND ISLANDS. THE MAIN THREATS
WILL BE LARGE HAIL AND/OR DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WIND GUSTS. HEAVY
RAIN AND LOCALIZED POOR DRAINAGE STREET FLOODING WILL ALSO BE A
CONCERN.
&&
.SHORT TERM /10 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
LATE TONIGHT...
THE BULK OF THE SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY
SHOULD WIND DOWN BY LATE THIS EVENING. HOWEVER...A FEW SHOWERS AND
PERHAPS A STORM OR TWO MAY LINGER A BIT PAST MIDNIGHT.
HOWEVER...EXPECT MOST OF THE OVERNIGHT HOURS TO BE DRY.
TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT...
ANOTHER RATHER TRICKY FORECAST ACROSS
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND. THE BULK OF TUESDAY MORNING WILL PROBABLY BE
DRY. HOWEVER...ANOTHER SHORTWAVE WILL BE APPROACHING FROM THE WEST.
THIS SHOULD ALLOW SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO OVERSPREAD THE
REGION FROM THE WEST DURING THE AFTERNOON. BASED ON THE MODEL
CONSENSUS...HAVE ENOUGH CONFIDENCE TO RUN WITH LIKELY POPS ACROSS
MOST OF THE REGION.
AS FOR SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL...INSTABILITY MIGHT BE LIMITED
DEPENDING ON THE AMOUNT OF CLOUD COVER AND POSITION OF THE FRONT.
HOWEVER...THERE WILL BE ANOTHER DAY OF 0 TO 6 KM SHEAR VALUES ON THE
ORDER OF 40 TO 50 KNOTS. THEREFORE...WE CAN/T RULE OUT A FEW STRONG
TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH THE BEST CHANCE SOUTH OF THE MA
TURNPIKE. THE BIGGER CONCERN MAY BE WITH HEAVY RAIN AND LOCALIZED
FLOODING...AS PWAT VALUES WILL STILL BE ON THE ORDER OF 1.5 INCHES.
THE BULK OF THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD COME TO AN END
SOMETIME TUESDAY EVENING. HOWEVER...A FEW SHOWERS MAY LINGER INTO
THE OVERNIGHT HOURS ESPECIALLY ALONG THE COASTAL PLAIN.
&&
.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
BIG PICTURE/PREFERENCES...
UPPER TROUGH MOVES ACROSS NEW ENGLAND WEDNESDAY WITH A SMALL AMOUNT
OF COLD ADVECTION ALOFT. BUILDING HEIGHTS THURSDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE
OVER THE PLAINS EDGES EAST. EVEN WITH THE BUILDING HEIGHTS...A
COUPLE OF SHORTWAVES SWEEP AROUND BAFFIN ISLAND UPPER LOW AND ACROSS
QUEBEC/NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND
TOWARD THE WEEKEND.
THE DAILIES...
WEDNESDAY-THURSDAY... COLD FRONT MOVES OFFSHORE EARLY WEDNESDAY.
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND REMAINS IN THE RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF THE
UPPER JET...AND 70 PERCENT RH LINGERS AT 800-850 MB THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON. SO POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR DIURNAL CUMULUS DURING MAX
HEATING. FOR THIS REASON WE HAVE 40-60 PCT SKY COVER DURING THE
AFTERNOON.
OTHERWISE DRY WEATHER AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE
REGION...THEN MOVES OFFSHORE DURING THURSDAY. THIS WILL BRING LIGHT
NORTHEAST FLOW WEDNESDAY AND A DEVELOPING SOUTHWEST FLOW THURSDAY.
MIXING DEPTHS WILL REACH 800 MB WEDNESDAY AND 800-850 MB THURSDAY.
MIXING THE TEMPS AT THE TOP OF THESE LAYERS WILL SUPPORT MID 70S TO
LOWER 80S...ALTHOUGH THE NORTHEAST WIND WEDNESDAY MAY BUFFER ANY
MIXING IN EASTERN MASS AND HOLD TEMPS THERE A FEW DEGREES COOLER.
FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY... DUE TO THE ONGOING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM
WATCH...FORECAST GRIDS FOR FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY REMAIN UNCHANGED.
PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
FRIDAY... MAINLY DRY AND SEASONABLE CONDITIONS EXPECTED TO
CONTINUE WITH HIGH PRES IN CONTROL. TEMPS MOSTLY IN THE 70S...WITH
COOLING SEABREEZES EXPECTED EACH DAY WITH LIGHT BOUNDARY LAYER
FLOW.
SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...
FORECAST CONFIDENCE DECREASES AS GFS/ECMWF DIFFER ON EWD EXTENT OF
WARM SECTOR AIRMASS. AS MENTIONED ABOVE WE LEANED TOWARD THE ECMWF
WHICH KEEPS THE WARM FRONT TO THE WEST WITH INCREASING CHC OF
SHOWERS/TSTMS FROM POSSIBLE MCS...BUT STILL A LOT OF UNCERTAINTY.
TEMP FORECAST ALSO UNCERTAIN AND WILL DEPEND ON POSITION OF WARM
FRONT. WE UNDERCUT MEX GUIDANCE BY SEVERAL DEGREES MORE IN LINE
WITH ECMWF.
&&
.AVIATION /21Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...
LOW...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT.
MODERATE...30 TO 60 PERCENT.
HIGH...GREATER THAN 60 PERCENT.
OVERVIEW...MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAFS THROUGH TUESDAY
NIGHT...BUT LOWER CONFIDENCE IN TIMING OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT...
WHILE VFR CONDITIONS WILL DOMINATE THROUGH TONIGHT...THE MAIN
CONCERN IS LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING WITH THE TIMING OF
SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY RESULTING IN BRIEFLY LOWER
CONDITIONS. LATEST RADAR IMAGERY SHOWING A FAIR AMOUNT OF ACTIVITY
ACROSS WESTERN NEW ENGLAND. EXPECT THESE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
TO ADVANCE EAST AND AFFECT MUCH OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND BETWEEN 20Z
AND 00Z. TIMING IS STILL TRICKY...BUT ACTIVITY HITS WESTERN NEW
ENGLAND FIRST AND THEN THE COASTAL PLAIN BY THIS EVENING.
THE ACTIVITY SHOULD DISSIPATE ACROSS THE REGION BY LATE EVENING.
THEREAFTER...VFR CONDITIONS WILL DOMINATE BUT LOCALLY LOWERED
CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE IN PATCHY FOG.
TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT...
VFR CONDITIONS PROBABLY DOMINATE IN THE MORNING...BUT ANOTHER ROUND
OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS ANTICIPATED TUESDAY AFTERNOON WILL BRING A
PERIOD OF MVFR-IFR CONDITIONS. THE BULK OF THE ACTIVITY ENDS
SOMETIME TUESDAY EVENING...BUT IFR TO MVFR CONDITIONS MAY DEVELOP
LATE IN LOW CLOUDS AND PATCHY GROUND FOG.
KBOS TERMINAL...MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAFS. BEST CHANCE
FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MOVING ACROSS THE TERMINAL ARE BETWEEN
21Z AND 00Z THIS EVENING.
KBDL TERMINAL...MODERATE TO HIGH CONFIDENCE IN TAFS. BEST CHANCE
FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MOVING ACROSS THE TERMINAL ARE BETWEEN
20Z AND 23Z.
OUTLOOK...WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...
WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...HIGH CONFIDENCE. VFR.
&&
.MARINE...
FORECASTER CONFIDENCE LEVELS...
LOW...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT.
MODERATE...30 TO 60 PERCENT.
HIGH...GREATER THAN 60 PERCENT.
HIGH CONFIDENCE THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT.
LINGERING SWELL OF AROUND 5 FEET ACROSS THE SOUTHERN ATLANTIC WATERS
SHOULD DIMINISH THIS EVENING. OTHERWISE...WINDS AND SEAS SHOULD BE
BELOW SCA THRESHOLDS THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT.
THE MAIN CONCERN WILL BE FOR A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
THIS EVENING...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE EASTERN ATLANTIC WATERS TO THE
NORTH OF PLYMOUTH MA. ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
MAY AFFECT SOME OF OUR COASTAL WATERS TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND NIGHT.
OUTLOOK...WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...
HIGH CONFIDENCE.
WEDNESDAY-THURSDAY...LINGERING 5 FOOT SEAS ON THE SOUTHERN OUTER
WATERS WEDNESDAY BUT SUBSIDING DURING THE DAY. WINDS REMAIN
BELOW 20 KNOTS.
FRIDAY...WINDS AND SEAS BELOW SMALL CRAFT CRITERIA. NE WINDS MAY
GUST TO 20 KT WED.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
RIVERS CONTINUE TO RECEDE ACROSS THE REGION...WITH MOST FALLING
BELOW FLOOD STAGE YESTERDAY AND OVERNIGHT. ONLY THE CHARLES RIVER AT
DOVER REMAINS IN MINOR FLOOD. LATEST GUIDANCE INDICATES THAT THIS
RIVER WILL ONLY SLOWLY FALL AND REMAIN IN MINOR FLOOD INTO WEDNESDAY
MORNING.
THE MAIN CONCERN WILL BE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL/POOR DRAINAGE STREET
FLOODING FROM CONVECTION THIS EVENING AND AGAIN TUESDAY
AFTERNOON/EVENING. HOWEVER...GIVEN RIVER LEVELS ARE QUITE HIGH WILL
HAVE TO KEEP AN EYE ON SOME OF THEM ESPECIALLY THE SMALLER STREAMS.
