.WHAT HAS CHANGED...
High Wind Watches have been upgraded to High Wind Warnings across 
eastern MA and RI.

&&

.KEY MESSAGES...

- Periods of heavy rain with embedded t-storms today, 
  especially tonight, may lead to river and small stream 
  flooding. Poor drainage in urban areas could flood as well.

- A period of strong to damaging winds across SNE tonight. 

- Mainly dry and trending colder Tue into Wed, then moderating 
  temperatures Thu and especially Fri.

- Unsettled pattern from Fri night through the weekend with a 
  chance of showers at times.

.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...Periods of heavy rain with embedded t-storms 
Monday, especially Monday night, may lead to some river and 
small stream flooding. Poor drainage in urban areas could flood 
as well.

A deepening low moving across the Great Lakes today will bring the 
potential for heavy rain, flooding, embedded thunderstorms, and 
damaging winds to southern New England today into tonight. Starting 
with the rain and flooding, a warm front lifts through the region 
this morning, advecting in warmer air and moisture from the south. A 
strong LLJ with speeds topping out around 80-90 kt at 925 mb will 
only reinforce this WAA; 925 mb temperatures increase to 10C-15C 
across southern New England during the afternoon. Surface 
temperatures could reach the 60s today across the region. NAEFS 
ensemble guidance the last few runs has also shown significantly 
above normal IVT during this period, around 6-8 SD above normal over 
the region by 00z Tuesday. Guidance has also continued to show a 
good amount of elevated MUCAPE ranging between 200-600 J/kg with the 
higher amounts in CT, RI, and up into parts of central MA during the 
afternoon. This coupled with the strong LLJ at 925 mb would be 
supportive of some rumbles of thunder and more convective elements 
that could lead to heavier rainfall where any t-storms develop. 
Outside of these areas, mostly light to moderate rainfall is 
expected today into tonight. Totals will likely fall in the 2-3" 
range with localized 4"+ possible where any heavier downpours 
develop.

KEY MESSAGE 2...A period of strong to damaging across SNE tonight.

Strong signal for a period of strong to damaging wind gusts tonight 
across SNE as anomalous low level jet lifts across the region. Hi-
res guidance indicating solid 80-90 kt LLJ at 925 mb moving up along 
the SNE coast 03-06z then exiting Cape Cod by 09z so looking at 
about a 3-4 hr window of peak winds. The challenge is how much of 
this jet will mix down to the surface as we will be dealing with a 
low level inversion. How mild it gets will be a big factor and 
soundings suggest damaging wind potential will increase considerably 
with temps 60F or higher. Given that we have increased confidence of 
temps near 60F this evening especially away from the immediate south 
coast, these mild temps should weaken the inversion enough for a 
period of damaging winds. Also there is quite a pressure fall rise 
couplet along the cold front which may also help to enhance winds 
near and along the boundary. As a result we upgraded the High Wind 
Watches to High Wind Warnings for eastern MA and RI where the 
strongest winds are expected in the vicinity of max low level winds. 
Potential for 55-65 mph gusts in this area and this is supported by 
HREF mean wind gusts. Low risk for a gust to 70 mph across southern 
RI and SE MA. Kept the wind advisories for the rest of SNE for a 
period of 45-55 mph gusts. Strongest gusts in the interior should be 
across CT and adjacent areas of central MA where a few 55-60 mph 
gust are possible. 

Hi-res CAMs do show a robust fine line to the west late afternoon 
and and early evening where there is modest surface instability. 
However, this fine line is expected to weaken as it moves into SNE 
later tonight as instability here is elevated above the boundary 
layer. However the CAMs are showing numerous convective elements 
moving into SNE tonight which could help to bring stronger winds to 
the surface. 

KEY MESSAGE 3...Mainly dry and trending colder Tue into Wed, then 
moderating temperatures Thu and especially Fri.

The cold front will be well east of the coast by daybreak Tue with 
much drier air moving into the region. Expect mostly sunny skies but 
some diurnal CU as well as cooling temps aloft move into the region. 
The cold advection aloft will help to deepen the boundary layer 
which will support gusty W winds with gusts 25-35 mph. Highs will be 
mostly in the low-mid 40s, with 30s higher elevations. 

The core of the coldest air will be Tue night into Wed as 850 mb 
temps bottom out at -15 to -18C around 12z Wed. Lows Tue night will 
drop into the teens and low 20s with high only in the 30s on Wed. 
Winds however will be diminishing late Tue night into Wed as high 
pres builds into the region. Still these temps will be about 10 
degrees below normal for mid March. Temps moderate Thu and 
especially Fri as the high moves offshore with SW flow developing. 
Highs should reach into the 50s on Fri ahead of an approaching cold 
front. 

KEY MESSAGE 4...Unsettled pattern from Fri night through the weekend 
with a chance of showers at times.

Fairly active pattern setting up for next weekend as multiple 
northern stream shortwaves will be rotating SE toward New Eng. 
Timing and amplitude of these shortwaves are not certain so low 
confidence on details but it does appear next weekend will be an 
unsettled period as a series of frontal systems move into the 
region.
