.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...Mostly dry and pleasant for the weekend outside
of a chance for some isolated showers Saturday afternoon.

A broad cutoff low tracking into the Maritimes today and tomorrow 
will continue to be the main story for the near-term. NW flow 
continues into tonight before shifting more N to NE Saturday 
afternoon as the low in the Canadian Maritimes continues to 
circulate. High low-level lapse rates in the afternoon hours will 
aid in more conducive conditions for diurnal cumulus to develop, and 
isolated showers remain a possibility for Saturday afternoon even 
with PWATs falling below 1". Highs Saturday will be a bit cooler due 
to this more northerly/northeasterly flow and temperatures aloft 
cooling a bit, especially over eastern MA; 925 mb temperatures fall 
to around 12-14C over eastern MA with the interior closer to 16-18C. 
850 mb temperatures may fall below 10C Saturday, though this is more 
likely for Sunday. Lows for Saturday night will likely fall to the 
low to mid 50s for most places in southern New England as the cooler 
air aloft descends into the region. 

KEY MESSAGE 2...Fall-like feel for Sunday, then more seasonable for 
Labor Day. A gradual warm-up throughout the week with continued dry 
weather through at least Wednesday or Thursday.

Saturday night through the middle of the upcoming week features 
fairly benign conditions, with little in the way of rainfall 
chances. The 500mb forecast map shows somewhat of an omega ridge 
centered across the middle of the country, with a closed mid-level 
low centered over Nova Scotia Sunday afternoon. The omega ridge 
flattens out, with semi-zonal flow developing across the coast by 
Tuesday and then shortwave troughing for late week across the 
northeastern states, likely leading to the next chance for active 
weather for southern New England. At the surface, high pressure 
builds in from the northwest Sunday, with its origins in northern 
Canada. Surface high pressure remains the dominant weather feature 
throughout the majority of the forecast period, leading to a stretch 
of dry weather.

Temperatures aloft are cooler Sunday, associated with that mid-level 
low east of New England. 925mb temperatures are only around +8C to 
+10C, which with boundary layer mixing supports highs in the upper 
60s to low 70s. Thus, Sunday will feel very much like autumn, with a 
blend of sun and clouds, northerly winds and dew points in the low 
50s. While winds won't be overly strong, the combination of cooler 
temperatures and lower dew points will make for a rather crisp day. 
Sunday night should feature decent radiational cooling with high 
pressure settling across the region, though this will depend on how 
quickly winds diminish. Did opt for a blend of colder guidance on 
Sunday night, which brought temperatures down into the upper 40s to 
low 50s for most of southern New England, with urban centers like 
Boston remaining in the middle 50s. 

Good news if you aren't ready for pumpkin spice weather, as 
temperatures will trend warmer throughout the week from WAA aloft. 
925mb temperatures climb +14C to +18C, supporting near-seasonable 
highs in the upper 70s for Labor Day, then upper 70s to lower 80s 
Tuesday into the middle part of next week. Humidity remains 
tolerable as well, with dew points generally in the upper 50s to 
around 60F. Labor Day itself looks quiet and dry, though there will 
be a high risk for rip currents along the ocean beaches.

KEY MESSAGE 3...Elevated risk for dangerous rip currents through the 
Holiday Weekend, especially Sunday into Labor Day.

Persistent northeast flow, long-period swell, and offshore seas of 4-
7 feet will continue to support an elevated risk for dangerous rip 
currents through the Holiday Weekend, especially Sunday into Labor 
Day for east-facing ocean beaches. With otherwise quiet weather 
expected, those heading to the beach should be mindful that ocean 
conditions may still be hazardous. Be sure to check with local beach 
staff or lifeguards regarding ocean conditions before entering the 
water.

.AVIATION /00Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...

Low - less than 30 percent. 
Moderate - 30 to 60 percent. 
High - greater than 60 percent.

UPDATE: 00Z TAF

Tonight...Moderate confidence.

VFR. However, MVFR ceilings may approach eastern MA before
daybreak, including Cape Cod and Islands. Light northwest 
winds, with light north-northeast wind for eastern MA.

Saturday...Moderate confidence. 

Forecast guidance suggest there may be two cloud bases tomorrow,
one being MVFR to low-end VFR (020-040)VFR, then a secondary
base between 050-080. Isolated SHRA/TSRA threat 19z-23z. North-
northeast winds 10-15 kts. 

Saturday night...High confidence. 

Lower-end VFR to MVFR ceilings. Winds light and variable. 

KBOS Terminal...Moderate confidence in TAF.

Where confidence is moderate is with the development of MVFR
ceilings, whether the deck of clouds are SCT or BKN/OVC.

KBDL Terminal...High confidence in TAF.

Outlook /Sunday through Wednesday/...

Sunday: VFR. Breezy. 

Sunday Night through Tuesday Night: VFR.
