WHAT HAS CHANGED
Forecast remains on track.
KEY MESSAGES
- Showers move out of southern New England by 7-8AM. Dryer and slightly cooler afterwards.
- High astronomical tides and up to one-foot of storm surge could cause minor coastal flooding for the evening high tides tonight and Tuesday night.
- Near seasonable temperatures and dry conditions followed by more unsettled weather at the end of the work week.
DISCUSSION
KEY MESSAGE 1...Showers move out of southern New England by 7-8AM. Dryer and slightly cooler afterwards.
Any lingering showers this morning should move out of southern New England by 7-8 AM. In the wake of the cold front, skies clear and temperatures fall to more seasonable... upper 70s across the interior to low to mid 80s across RI and the eastern coastal plain. Dewpoints will also be on the decrease, down to the 50s across most of the region. High pressure starts to build in as a surface ridge develops. Lows across the interior tonight may fall to the low 50s with mid/upper 50s into the coastal plain. Winds go light to calm with clearer skies, lending some favorability to a possible radiational cooling setup.
KEY MESSAGE 2...High astronomical tides and up to one-foot of storm surge could cause minor coastal flooding for the evening high tides tonight and Tuesday night.
Astronomical tides will be peaking around 12.0 feet at Boston Harbor this evening and will remain elevated into Tuesday night.
Latest storm surge forecast data from P-ETSS and Stevens Institute continue to indicate about a half to up to one foot of storm surge through Tuesday evening's tide cycle.
This is a low-ceiling coastal flooding scenario, with splashover or at worst minor coastal flooding in the usual vulnerable shoreline roads (including but not limited to Easy Street in Nantucket and Morrissey Blvd in Boston). Given the influx of visitors to Southern New England who may not be as familiar with coastal flooding, we opted to continue Coastal Flood Statements for much of the southern and eastern coast with a Coastal Flood Advisory remaining in effect for Nantucket through Tuesday night.
KEY MESSAGE 3...Expecting a more active pattern to return during the second half of the week.
Temperatures will start to climb again heading into Wednesday, but are still seasonable in the low to mid 80s with tolerable humidity levels. Long-range guidance continues to disagree regarding precipitation chances Wednesday, with the GFS (and ensembles) bringing light shower chances back Wednesday during the daytime while the ECMWF and Canadian (and ensembles) hold off until Thursday. Regardless, more active weather looks to develop around Thursday or Thursday night, as a stronger disturbance aloft moves in and sweeps a cold front through Southern New England. This could bring higher chances for showers and/or thunderstorms.
Expecting a front to push offshore sometime on Friday, bringing clearing skies and dry conditions to southern New England as we head into the weekend. Temperatures should climb to slightly above normal, in the mid to upper 80s, but dewpoints should return to comfortable levels, in the upper 40s to upper 50s.
AVIATION /08Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/
Forecaster Confidence Levels...
Low - less than 30 percent.
Moderate - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.
06z TAF Update...
Overnight: Moderate confidence.
Areas of MVFR to IFR possible with incoming SHRA and TSRA associated with a passing cold front. Expecting bulk of the showers and storms to pass through 04-08z for BDL and 07-11z elsewhere. Winds prevailing out of the south from 10-15 kt sustained, shifting NW in the wake of the front. Have added LLWS overnight prior to the cold frontal passage for all but inland terminals to account for 35-40kt flow at 2-3 thousand feet.
Monday: High confidence.
Conditions improve to VFR behind the front as NW flow develops.
Generally NW winds decreasing to near 10 kts throughout the day.
Monday Night: High Confidence.
VFR. NW winds 5-10 kts. Few lingering high level clouds possible over Cape/Islands.
KBOS Terminal...Moderate confidence in trends. Moderate confidence in timing. Have inserted a TEMPO group for thunder overnight as confidence is increasing.
KBDL Terminal...High confidence in trends. Moderate confidence in timing. Threat of thunder approaching right around 06z still looks good.

Tuesday Night through Wednesday Night: VFR.
Thursday: Mainly VFR, with local MVFR possible. Windy with local gusts up to 30 kt. Chance SHRA, slight chance TSRA.
