Synopsis for massachusetts and rhode island coastal waters - High pressure builds into new england through Saturday. The high eventually shifts offshore later this weekend. This will allow a warm front to lift in and bring showers late Saturday night into early Sunday. The trailing cold front may slide through on Monday as low pressure drops from the north, followed by another low late Tuesday.

SYNOPSIS
High pressure over New England moves offshore tonight and remains offshore on Saturday. Another chilly night tonight but not as chilly as last night. Mostly sunny on Saturday, though increasing clouds with chances for light showers arrive early Sunday. Unsettled pattern sets up for Sunday into early next week, though the best chance for showers is around Tuesday or Wednesday. Temperatures turn quite mild for interior western New England Monday, but a backdoor cold front brings much cooler air to coastal areas.
NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/
7 PM Update:
High pressure will continue to gradually shift ESE into the southern offshore waters tonight. Seabreezes should diminish around or shortly before sundown, setting the stage for another night of clear skies and light to calm winds. We should see good radiational cooling conditions develop again. Frost Advisories have been hoisted for several counties in CT, RI and eastern MA where the frost/freeze program is active; that being said, with temperatures running about 3-5 degrees warmer than yesterday, prospects for frost are a little more borderline than was the case last night. This was enough to hold Suffolk and eastern Norfolk Counties out of the Advisory, and it also could be more borderline in Hartford County and those counties around the Providence area but will be close enough to hoist for these locations. If you had planted early, even in areas outside where the Frost Advisory is in effect, take the necessary actions to protect your plants and crops from damage related to frost.
Following MOS based approaches to lows, lows range from the upper 20s/around 30 in northwest MA, and around 33-36 for most everywhere, though upper 30s/around 40 in the Boston area.
SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/
355 PM Update:
Saturday:
High pressure continues to be anchored offshore on Sat, with a highly amplified upper level ridge begins to build into western New England. Expecting a good deal of sunshine again, with sea breezes again developing near the southern and eastern coasts as has been the case the last couple days. However will be seeing an increasing canopy of high clouds spreading in later in the day into western sections of SNE.
With temps gradually warming each day, continued strong heating combined with an increased WSW wind away from the immediate coast, it has the look of one of those pre-greenup spring days where temps overachieve available guidance by a significant margin. Highs Saturday away from the coasts should punch well into the 60s and wouldn't rule out some locations in the CT and Merrimack Valleys reaching 70 degrees. Noticeably cooler near shore with highs only in the 50s where seabreezes will govern.
Saturday Night:
Clouds that had been moving in later Sat aftn continue to lower, thicken and spread eastward through much of the night. This is in response to a burst of pretty strong warm and moist advection as upper ridge axis crests offshore. Some indication in guidance that lighter showers could develop in western MA/CT during the late- overnight to pre-dawn period, but think modeled QPF is overdone as low levels initially struggle to saturate up with several days of preceding dry weather. In fact there's quite a reservoir of dry subcloud air shown on model soundings which even in western areas only saturates enough to support light showers around 09-12z Sun.
Carried a 15-45% PoP mention for showers west of Providence, with highest chances near the Berkshires. This would be a relatively higher PoP but very low QPF scenario though.
With increasing overcast and warming temps aloft, lows project to be considerably warmer than prior nights with no chance for frost. Lows should only dip into the low to mid 40s, and a few of the urban centers may stay around the mid/upper 40s.
LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/
Key Points...
* Low chance for isolated showers Sunday and Monday. More widespread rain possible mid week
* Warming trend through much of next week, but a back door cold front will keep eastern SNE cooler then western SNE.
Sunday and Monday
The center of the high pressure drops south to the Carolinas, but the upper level ridge axis continues to stretch north in SNE. Being at the top of the ridge axis, weak vorticity impulses, along with weak mid level warm air advection will bring mid to high clouds and low chances for isolated showers both Sunday and Monday. High temperatures Sunday and Monday will be very dependent on a back door cold front working in. Guidance continues to struggle with how far inland the back door cold front will penetrate Sunday, and again on Monday. What will likely occur is that eastern SNE will see high temperatures in the low to mid 60s, while western SNE will see mid to upper 70s, with a chance at low 80s.
Tuesday through Friday
Upper level ridge axis begins to break down Tuesday into Wednesday as a weakening shortwave trough moves through the region. Details on exact timing and coverage of precip remains very uncertain with weak upper level forcing and large spread in the guidance. LREF probs for 0.25 inches of rain remain low, less then 30% each day through Friday. The temperature forecast remains very uncertain during this time period as another upper level ridge builds in to our west allowing another surface high pressure to build over the Gulf of Maine. This could bring continued onshore flow to the region along with continued back door cold fronts. Ensembles are still showing significant amount of spread with the 25th to 75th percentile for high temperatures ranging from the upper 50s to upper 70s across the region.
AVIATION /00Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/
Forecast Confidence Levels:
Low - less than 30 percent.
Moderate - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.
00z TAF Update:
Tonight: High confidence.
VFR SKC. For this afternoon, Light S winds for all areas overnight.
Saturday: High confidence.
VFR, although with an increasing canopy of high clouds late- day. Light SW winds increase thru the day to around 7-10 kt; though sea-breezes again develop near the coasts between 14-16z Sat.
Saturday Night: High confidence in trends though moderate on exact timing.
Cigs start VFR but will be steadily lowering. Best chance at sub-VFR ceilings and light rain showers is after 06z and mainly from ORH westward; cigs could be as low as IFR but think MVFR predominate for those interior western terminals. Still think we're looking at OVC VFR for eastern terminals. SW winds around 8-12 kt to start, but decrease to around 5-8 kt late. Low prob of low level wind shear south of I-90.
KBOS TAF...High confidence in TAF. VFR. Winds become light southerly tonight. Seabreezes again likely for Sat, following similar 14-16z timeframe as prior days.
KBDL TAF...High confidence in TAF. VFR. Light north winds most of today, but will trend southerly around 4-7 kt late today into tonight.
Outlook /Sunday through Wednesday/...
Sunday: Mainly VFR, with local IFR possible. Slight chance SHRA.
Sunday Night: VFR. Slight chance SHRA.
Monday: Mainly VFR, with local MVFR possible. Slight chance SHRA.
Monday Night: Mainly VFR, with local IFR possible. Slight chance SHRA.
Tuesday: Mainly VFR, with areas MVFR possible. Chance SHRA.
Tuesday Night: Mainly VFR, with areas IFR possible. Chance RA.
Wednesday: Mainly VFR, with areas IFR possible.
MARINE
Forecaster Confidence Levels:
Low - less than 30 percent.
Medium - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.
Tonight through Saturday Night: High confidence.
Pleasant boating weather conditions for mariners through most of Saturday, and while that should generally be the case into Saturday evening as well, there is a low chance for showers on the southern waters late Sat night into pre-dawn Sunday.
Light southerly winds tonight and into early on Sat. SW winds increase a bit to around 10-15 kt on Sat on all waters, though will become ESE on the eastern nearshore waters Sat late-morning to early evening. Seas mainly 3ft or less all waters.
Outlook /Sunday through Wednesday/...
Sunday through Sunday Night: Winds less than 25 kt. Slight chance of rain showers.
Monday: Winds less than 25 kt.
Monday Night through Tuesday: Winds less than 25 kt. Slight chance of rain showers.
Tuesday Night through Wednesday: Winds less than 25 kt. Seas locally approaching 5 ft. Slight chance of rain.
