.WHAT HAS CHANGED...
Risk for showers with brief heavy rain and an isolated
thunderstorm possible Monday morning, lingering into early 
afternoon across RI and eastern MA.

&&

.KEY MESSAGES...

- Steady rain Sunday afternoon transitions to drizzle and fog 
  overnight. 

- Showers Monday morning with brief downpours and a thunderstorm 
  possible, transitions to drier weather in the mid to late 
  afternoon from west to east. Warmer and more humid Monday with 
  partial sunshine late.

- Above normal temperatures for the middle of next week before trending
  closer to normal late next week. A couple periods of showers 
  possible, but no washouts expected.


&&

.DISCUSSION...

KEY MESSAGE 1...Steady rain Sunday afternoon transitions to 
drizzle and fog overnight. 

Large warm frontal rain shield over SNE this afternoon, being driven 
by a modest 35-45 kt low level SE jet off the Atlantic. This jet is 
resulting in breezy conditions along the coast, with ESE winds 
gusting to 20-25 mph at times. Winds will slacken later this evening 
and overnight, as this jet exits offshore overnight. Thus, steady 
rains this afternoon and evening will transition to more of a spotty 
light rain/drizzle overnight. As a warm front approaches from the 
south, could see some areas of dense fog develop tonight.  

KEY MESSAGE 2...Showers Monday morning with brief downpours and a 
thunderstorm possible, transitions to drier weather in the mid to 
late afternoon from west to east. Warmer and more humid Monday with 
partial sunshine late.  

Warm front lifts north through the region Monday morning. Warm 
sector airmass will be accompanied by dew pts in the 60s, so it will 
feel warmer and more humid Monday. Short wave trough and 
accompanying cold front move through the region later in the morning 
and into the afternoon, from west to east. Modest synoptic and 
frontal scale forcing, coupled with copious deep layer moisture (dew 
pts in the 60s and PWATs 1.75-2.0 inches) along with some 
instability, will yield showers with embedded heavier rain/downpours 
and a low risk of an isolated thunderstorm. Not expecting any 
flooding (other than nuisance, minor urban/street) but more 
beneficial rains, with an additional 0.35 to 0.75 inches of rainfall 
tonight into Monday. Isolated higher amounts possible if any 
thunderstorms develop. Good column drying behind the FROPA 18z-00z 
from west to east, with PWATs crashing and yielding clouds giving 
way to breaks of sunshine from west to east mid to late afternoon. 
This should support highs of 70-75 and with dew pts in the 60s, 
it will feel considerably warmer than previous days.

KEY MESSAGE 3...Above normal temperatures for the middle of next 
week before trending closer to normal late next week. A couple 
periods of showers possible, but no washouts expected.

Not much change to the expected overall mid level synoptic pattern 
from yesterday. However, considerable differences remain between the 
deterministic models after Wednesday. Thus, have low confidence in 
the details late next week into next weekend. Will be relying more 
on ensembles and focusing more on the trends until greater clarity 
develops.

Expecting well above normal temperatures to be in place Tuesday into 
Wednesday. While we should be on the backside of a cold front for 
Thursday, there are signals in the NAEFS and NationalBlend that the 
lower temperatures for Thursday could still turn out to be slightly 
above normal for late May, with the near to slightly below normal 
temperatures hold off until Friday into next weekend. Given the 
uncertainty at this time range, anticipating this timing part of the 
forecast is likely to change over the coming week.

Rainfall-wise, it is very difficult to pin down specific windows of 
time when the risk for showers is greatest. We can't seem to get 
sufficient moisture aligned with lift. The synoptic pattern suggests 
that Wednesday still has potential to be one of those periods as a 
cold front should be crossing our region. However, the ensembles 
started to dry out the atmosphere a little more, meaning that shower 
coverage could be less than previously anticipated. For Thursday, 
the cooler conditions means increased relative humidity, but there 
is not much organized lift to focus it. Perhaps colder air aloft 
could trigger diurnal showers, but the timing of this colder air is 
questionable. These issues continue right into next weekend with the 
potential approach of a low pressure. Again, anticipating this 
aspect of the forecast is likely to undergo changes as this week 
progresses.

.AVIATION /18Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...

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

18Z update...

This afternoon and tonight: High confidence. 

MVFR/IFR in steady light rain this afternoon, continues to lower to 
widespread IFR this evening and tonight, with marginal IFR/LIFR at 
times in drizzle/spotty light rain and areas of dense fog. Marginal 
LLWS this afternoon and evening from low level SE jet of 35-45 kt, 
ends after 00z-03z west to east as low level jet moves offshore. 
This jet will result in ENE surface winds gusting up to 20-30 kt at 
times at coastal terminals until 00z-03z, then slackening 
thereafter.  

Monday: High confidence in trends. Moderate confidence in 
exact timing.

LIFR/LIFR at 12z Monday in drizzle/areas of rain and fog. As cold 
front approaches from the west, showers become widespread along with 
embedded heavier rain and low prob of -TSRA. After 15z LIFR/IFR 
begin to lift to IFR/MVFR and eventually VFR 18z-00z from west to 
east. SSW winds in the morning become west in the afternoon with the 
FROPA. 

Monday night: High confidence. 

Light west wind becoming NNW late. Any lingering IFR/MVFR over Cape 
Cod and Islands at 00z, will improve to VFR with the wind shift from 
SW to west and eventually NNW overnight. Low prob of MVFR in patchy 
fog overnight. 

KBOS...High confidence in TAF. Marginal LLWS (WS020 15040KT) 00z-03z 
Monday. 

KBDL...High confidence in TAF. Marginal LLWS (WS020 14040KT) 00z-03z 
Monday. 

Outlook /Tuesday through Friday/...

Tuesday through Tuesday Night: VFR. 

Wednesday: VFR. Breezy. Slight chance SHRA.

Wednesday Night: VFR. 

Thursday: VFR. Slight chance SHRA.

Thursday Night: VFR. 

Friday: VFR. Slight chance SHRA.

tonight in areas of fog and drizzle/light rain. The long easterly 
fetch of winds will build seas 5-8 ft across the ocean waters of 
RI/MA. 

Monday and Mon night...

Showers with embedded heavy rain, areas of dense fog and low risk of 
an isolated thunderstorm in the morning, lingering into the 
early/mid afternoon for the southern waters. Then followed by
