.KEY MESSAGES...

-Near-normal to warmer than normal temperatures Wed/Thu as a

-Above normal temps Thursday with gusty winds at 30 to 40mph

 chills expected this weekend and possibly lasting into next
 week.

.DISCUSSION...
Key message 1...Near-normal to warmer than normal temperatures 
Wed/Thu as a weak clipper the system brings some higher terrain 
light snow and light rain for the coastal plain tomorrow night

A mid-level ridge builds overhead tonight with an area of surface 
high pressure positioned to our south. This will support a wind 
shift to the southwest overnight which will allow warmer air to 
advect into the region during the day tomorrow. After a chilly start 
to Wednesday with single digit low temperatures, warm advection and 
southwest flow will allow afternoon temperatures to approach near to 
slightly above normal temperatures ranging from the upper 20s across 
the interior northwest to the upper 30s over southeast MA and The 
Cape/Islands. 

Models continue to resolve a subtle short-wave aloft embedded in 
larger upper-level trough moving overhead tomorrow night.
Positive vorticity advection in conjunction with low-level warm air 
advection will support a period of light snow showers for much of 
the interior/high terrain. Moisture will be very limited with PWATs 
only between 0.25-04". Not expecting any significant accumulations 
with only a dusting to an inch tomorrow night.
Areas further south and east more likely to see some spotty rain 
showers.

Key Message 2...Above normal temps Thursday with gusty winds at
30 to 40mph

Thursday will likely be our last mild day for the foreseeable 
future, before an arctic airmass moves in this weekend.  Mid-level 
ridge and light WAA allow 850 mb temps to warm to -5C, which will 
translate into highs in the low to mid 40s.  Thursday will be very 
breezy as strong westerlies develop due to a tight pressure gradient 
between high pressure over the Atlantic and low pressure over the 
Great Lakes.  Bufkit soundings show a fairly deep mixed layer up to 
800 mb, where winds are around 35-45mph.  Gusts of 30-40mph should 
be able to mix down to the surface during the peak heating hours in 
the afternoon. 

Key Message 3...Arctic front arrives Friday night, with 
dangerous cold and wind chills expected this weekend and 
possibly lasting into next week.

Arctic front arrives on Friday with highs likely peaking in the 
upper 20s to low 30s early in the day before plunging to near zero 
by Friday night.  The Arctic front will bring continued gusty winds, 
with NW gusts of 30-40mph once again in the afternoon, and remaining 
gusty overnight.  This will bring the windchill index/feels-like 
temperature into the single digits for Friday afternoon and into the 
negative teens to twenties for Friday night.  High temperatures on 
Saturday will likely be the coldest of the season thus far, with 
highs only topping out in the single digits to low teens. It will be 
less windy on Saturday with NW winds gusting 15-20mph; however, this 
will keep the wind chill index in the -10 to -20 range.  Winds 
finally look to diminish on Saturday night as the center of the 
arctic high moves overhead; however, this will set the stage for 
good radiational cooling conditions, allowing low temperatures to 
drop near or below zero by Sunday morning.  Not much relief from the 
Cold on Sunday as highs remain well below normal in the low teens 
and wind chills still near or below zero. Wind chills below -15 can 
cause frostbite in as little as 30 minutes on exposed skin, so use 
caution if spending time outdoors this weekend, especially at night. 
 Cold weather looks to continue into next week, as CPC continues to 
highlight much of the Northeast in a moderate risk for well below-
normal temperatures. 


Key Message 4...We continue to monitor a potential coastal 
storm for late in the weekend, but confidence remains very low.

Guidance continues to indicate a potential coastal low sometime 
between Sunday and Monday.  There is still significant uncertainty 
with this system, as both deterministic and ensemble guidance are 
very spread out along its path, as it could travel up the coast or 
out to sea as it exits the mid-Atlantic.  With a track out to sea, 
snow impacts would be little to none; however, if this system 
approaches the 40/70 benchmark and travels up the coast, there would 
be more significant snow impacts, especially with cold air already 
in place. The probabilistic Winter Storm Severity Index shows a 20-
30% chance for major winter storm impacts Sunday into Monday.

Thursday. Increasing winds on Thursday as well, possibly reach gale 
force for the outer waters by Thursday evening.
