.WHAT HAS CHANGED...
Issued a Coastal Flood Advisory for the Cape and Islands for the 
threat of minor coastal flooding with this afternoon's high tide 
cycle. Otherwise, the forecast remains on track. 

&&

.KEY MESSAGES...

- -Early morning showers and cloud cover give way to a mostly
  sunny albeit cooler day. Coastal hazards including the 
  potential for minor coastal flooding and rip currents 
  continues for east-facing beaches. 

- Dry conditions Labor Day through much of Wednesday. Pattern
  becomes more unsettled Wednesday night into late-week with
  periods of showers possible and gusty winds possible Thursday.

.DISCUSSION...
.KEY MESSAGE 1... Early morning showers and cloud cover give way to 
a mostly sunny albeit cooler day. Coastal hazards including the 
potential for minor coastal flooding and rip currents continues for 
east-facing beaches. 

Any lingering showers early this morning dissipate by mid to late 
morning as an area of subsidence or sinking air moves overhead. The 
subsidence will also result in a clearing trend through the day. 
Weak cold advection and 925 mb temps of 12-14C  will keep highs in 
the upper 60s near the eastern coastline to the lower 70s 
elsewhere. Another day of high astronomical tides and an onshore
flow brings the chance for minor coastal flooding back for the 
afternoon high tide cycle. As a result, a coastal flood advisory
has been issued for this afternoon's high tide cycle. The 
advisory includes the Cape and Islands from 19-23z. As was the 
case with yesterday's high tide, anticipating minor impacts in 
typically more vulnerable spots (Easy Street on Nantucket and 
Sesuit Harbor in Dennis). There is also an high risk for rip 
currents along east- facing shorelines in eastern MA, as 
offshore seas rise to around 4-6 ft overnight into Monday. 


KEY MESSAGE 2...Dry conditions Labor Day through much of 
Wednesday. Pattern becomes more unsettled Wednesday night into 
late-week with periods of showers possible and gusty winds
possible Thursday. 

The deeper mid-level trough shifts further eastward through the
day Monday while higher heights advect in as a mid-level ridge 
builds to the west. This will bring in warmer temperatures aloft
with 925mb temperatures +15-17C. NW flow and a sufficiently 
mixed boundary layer accompanied mainly clear skies should help 
yield high temperatures in the the mid to upper 70s for most. 
High pressure will support mainly dry conditions Monday with 
similar conditions and temperatures likely for Tuesday under the
same pattern. 

Ensemble guidance shows a signal for a transition to a more 
unsettled pattern mid to late week. Flow aloft becomes more 
zonal with a few embedded shortwave troughs moving through late 
Wednesday through late-week. This should be accompanied by a 
plume of above normal moisture (120-150% of normal) and a jet 
positioned to supply lift across the region. This should be 
enough to support periods of showers later Wednesday/Wednesday 
night into Friday. There is spread across guidance in the finer 
details of the timing of the waves which will influence timing 
of the showers. Overall, there isn't a strong signal for flash 
flooding at this time. Marginal instability in place may owe to 
a storm or downpour depending on the timing. 

Another thing we will need to monitor is the potential for a 
period of gusty winds Thursday. An 850mb 35-45kt LLJ positions 
across southern New England into Thursday. If winds mix down 
efficiently, this would support gusty winds. There is a signal 
for anomalously gusty winds on the ECMWF EFI (still fairly far 
out). Flow looks to become more westerly behind the passage of 
the first wave with a signal for CAA. Both things that could 
facilitate the mixing down of the higher winds aloft (to some 
extent at least). As mentioned, timing of these waves are lower 
confidence and this could have influence on when we get the 
better mixing and thus the gusty winds. So plenty of details to 
be worked out. If things align, ensembles show potential for 
gusts in the 30-40 mph range on Thursday across the land and 
coastal waters. Still plenty of details to work out in the 
pattern before we come into better agreement about the gusts, 
but something to watch for now. 

Temperatures Wednesday/Thursday lean near to slightly above normal 
with temperatures in the mid to upper 70s. A cooler airmass pushes 
in sometime later Thursday into Friday with cooler temperatures 
arriving by Friday (upper 60s/low 70s).
