Synopsis for massachusetts and rhode island coastal waters - Storms lower to gales today and then significantly diminish Wednesday, as high pressure briefly builds over the waters. Then Thursday, all eyes turn to low pressure emerging off the mid atlantic coast, with rapid intensification possible. At this time the track may go well S of the coastal waters w/ limited impacts outside of the outer coastal waters. Behind the departing low, dry but cold nw flow overspreads the ma/ri waters. Another coastal low is possible early next week but details are uncertain.

SYNOPSIS
Very strong winds continue today into Tuesday, though they won't be as strong on Tuesday. Colder than normal temperatures expected early in the week with highs in the 20s. Winds decrease into Wednesday with slightly warmer temperatures in the upper 20s. Still monitoring a potential coastal storm that may bring us another chance of snow later in the week.
NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/
10AM Update
Already seeing peak wind gusts of 68mph in Worcester and Fitchburg this morning, with peak wind gusts of 56mph in Boston and 52mph in Providence. With more sun then clouds, diurnal mixing will continue to enhance the mixing potential in the boundary layer, allowing the 4-5kft winds of 60-70mph to mix down to the surface this afternoon.
Key Messages...
* Strong, potentially damaging winds today.
* Below normal temperatures with highs in the 20s.
The center of the low which brought all our precipitation yesterday has moved over Nova Scotia this morning placing SNE beneath dry and cold WNW flow through the column. This cold advection will lead to rapidly dropping temperatures as lows dip into the single digits and mid teens early this morning. At the mid levels 850 mb temps drop from +8C on Sunday to -16C today leading to high temperatures as much as 20 degrees colder, in the 20s. Combined with the wind it will feel like the single digits and teens. This wind is due to the tight pressure gradient between the exiting low and high pressure extending into the midwest which results in a 50-60 kt LLJ at 850 mb. Given deep CAA we should see a deeply mixed boundary layer; BUFKIT soundings indicate mixing as high as 800 mb. The result will be potentially damaging wind gusts as high as 55 to 65 mph; whether or not we'll achieve those strongest gusts may depend on how much diurnal warming we can achieve. We should see a mix of clouds and sun with moisture at 850 mb and W winds leading to orographically forced cloudcover over the Berkshires and Worcester Hills.
SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM TUESDAY/
Key Messages...
* Remaining gusty overnight and Tuesday.
* Below normal temperatures.
The LLJ persists overnight but loss of diurnal heating should decrease the mixing height and keep those gusts in the 40 to 50 mph range. Wind chill values dip into the low and even negative single digits! Tuesday, more of the same with gusty and cold conditions.
Climatologically highs are typically in the upper 30s and low 40s, but with 850 mb temps even colder than Monday, near -19C, high temperatures will be much below normal, in the low 20s for most locations. In the high elevations temps won't get out of the teens all day. Dry weather prevails under building high pressure.
LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/
Key Messages:
* Winds weaken overnight Tuesday into Wednesday.
* Monitoring potential for a coastal storm Thursday into Friday.
Details:
Tuesday Night - Wednesday:
The pressure gradient continues to relax Tuesday night into Wednesday trending winds downward. It will be another chilly night Tuesday night with lows dropping into the single digits and teens.
Wind chills top into the single digits to negative single digits. On Wednesday, the airmass will begins to moderate as a weak ridge builds in, "warming" highs back into the mid to upper 20s.
Thursday and Friday:
Ensemble guidance continues to display a potential coastal low forming in the mid-Atlantic then tracking northeastward toward New England generally in the Thursday into early Friday timeframe. Track still continues to vary among ensemble and deterministic solutions with run to run differences as well. Over the last bunch of runs however, there is has been a general trend for the low tracking further south over the mid-Atlantic then progressing more ENE. This track has supported the main envelope of solutions right now as more of a "graze" across the eastern portion of southern New England.
With a cold pattern in place, this would mean snow if the track favored precipitation over southern New England. Given current ensemble means this would mean the highest chances for snowfall would further east such as the Cape and Islands. Given uncertainty in the track, amounts and the precipitation probabilities across southern New England remain lower confidence. They should become more clear if models stay consistent with the storm tracking further east.
Weekend:
Weak upper level ridging moves into southern New England for the weekend. Highs stay below normal in the low to mid 30s.
AVIATION /17Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/
Forecast Confidence Levels:
Low - less than 30 percent.
Moderate - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.
18z TAF Update...High Confidence
Rest of Today:
VFR and very windy. Winds gusting 45-55 knots, possibly up to 65 knots in the elevated terrain. SCT to BKN cloud decks spill off the terrain across western MA extending eastward at 4000-6000 ft.
Tonight through Tuesday night:
VFR. Winds remain strong out of the west at 40-45 knots through Tuesday. Winds finally diminish some Tuesday night down to 25-35 knots.
KBOS TAF...High Confidence
VFR. Strong west winds gusting around 50 knots continue thought this evening. Winds remain strong overnight into tomorrow with gusts of 40-45 knots.
KBDL TAF...High confidence
VFR. Strong west winds gusting around 45 knots continue through Tuesday.
Outlook /Tuesday Night through Friday/...
Tuesday Night: VFR. Windy with gusts up to 35 kt.
Wednesday: VFR. Breezy.
Wednesday Night: VFR.
Thursday: Mainly VFR, with local MVFR possible. Breezy. Chance SN.
Thursday Night: Mainly VFR, with local IFR possible. Breezy.
Chance SN.
Friday: VFR. Breezy.
MARINE
Forecaster Confidence Levels:
Low - less than 30 percent.
Medium - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.
Moderate confidence.
Dangerous marine conditions today as a strong cold front brings strong westerly sustained winds between 35-45 knots and gusts as high as 55-60 knots. These strong winds will cause very rough seas, rising to 10-15 feet in the open waters, and 4-8 feet in Cape Cod Bay, MVY Sounds, and Nantucket Sound. The cold front will bring subfreezing temperatures well out into the open waters by Monday night. Confidence is high that moderate freezing spray will occur Monday night into Wednesday morning, with a low chance at heavy freezing spray. A Heavy Freezing Spray Advisory has been issued for Monday night through Wednesday morning.
Outlook /Tuesday Night through Friday/...
Tuesday Night: Strong winds with gusts up to 35 kt. Rough seas up to 11 ft. Freezing spray.
Wednesday: Low risk for Small Craft Advisory winds with gusts up to 25 kt. Local rough seas. Chance of freezing spray.
Wednesday Night: Winds less than 25 kt.
Thursday: Winds less than 25 kt. Seas locally approaching 5 ft.
Chance of snow. Local visibility 1 nm or less.
Thursday Night: Moderate risk for Small Craft Advisory winds with gusts up to 25 kt. Areas of rough seas. Chance of snow, chance of freezing spray. Local visibility 1 nm or less.
Friday: Low risk for Small Craft Advisory winds with gusts up to 25 kt. Areas of rough seas. Chance of freezing spray, slight chance of snow.
