- Lingering showers this morning give way to a slow clearing 
  trend this afternoon and tonight. 

- Drying trend Monday into Tuesday with warmer temperatures and
  breezy to gusty southwest winds. 

- Cold front brings a chance of showers and thunderstorms late

.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1... Lingering showers this morning give way to a slow 
clearing trend this afternoon and tonight. 

Expect a few lingering wrap-around showers mainly across eastern 
Massachusetts this morning with continued cyclonic flow. Shower 
activity wanes by the mid morning as a layer of drier air filters in 
at 925 mb. After a brief period of clearing, lingering cyclonic flow 
aloft and low-level instability will help form widespread diurnal CU 
and stratus clouds. Temperature-wise, not much change in the mid 
levels and we're looking at near persistence if not a few degrees 
warmer in valley locations where highs may break into the lower 60s. 
Breezy day on tap with model soundings showing a well mixed boundary 
layer extending to around 850 millibars paired with a low level
jet that increases to around 25-30 kt. 


KEY MESSAGE 2...Turning significantly drier Monday into Tuesday with 
warmer temperatures and breezy southwest winds.  

The week starts with increasingly zonal flow aloft stemming from the 
breakdown of a broad trough over the Eastern CONUS. Further west, 
building heights help to develop a Rex block over the Pacific 
Northwest serving to re-amplify the upper air pattern. Closer to the 
surface, low pressure deepens over the Canadian Maritimes 
Monday while high pressure builds to our south over the 
southwestern Atlantic resulting in an increasing pressure 
gradient. In terms of sensible weather, expect mainly dry 
conditions with increasing sunshine and a marked warming trend. 
Southwest flow will advect milder air into the region, with 
850mb temperatures rising from around +4C to +6C Monday to +12C 
to +14C Tuesday. Forecast soundings support a well-mixed 
boundary layer, expecting highs in the mid 60s to lower 70s 
Monday and upper 70s to low 80s Tuesday. The pressure gradient 
tightens through the period, resulting in breezy conditions 
Monday with southwest gusts 20-30 mph, increasing to 25-35 mph 
Tuesday. One final note, dew points fall into the 20s and 30s 
Monday and 30s and 40s Tuesday. These values in combination with
much warmer temperatures will result in relative humidity 
values falling to 25-35% Monday afternoon and 30-40% Tuesday 
afternoon. This combination will mean fire weather concerns are 
possible. Coordination with state fire weather partners is 
ongoing, and headlines may be needed early next week. 

KEY MESSAGE 3...Cold front brings a chance of showers and 
thunderstorms late Tuesday, followed by an unsettled and cooler 
pattern mid to late week. 

Cold front approaches late Tuesday, though timing remains uncertain. 
With highs climbing well above normal, guidance suggests some 
instability with up to 1000 J/kg of CAPE, mainly across NW 
Mass, which may support scattered convective showers and 
thunderstorms. Latest CSU-ML guidance still paints the northern
border of our CWA with low-end (~5%) severe probabilities. This
will need to be monitored give a strengthening low- level jet 
in the vicinity. The limiting factor will be moisture with
dewpoints in the lower to mid 50s Tuesday afternoon. The front 
may be slow to clear the region, sagging south of southern New 
England Wednesday with lingering showers and possible 
thunderstorms. 

Looking ahead, the pattern becomes more active as mid-level ridge 
develops across western CONUS, replacing the Rex blocking, and a 
trough across the eastern CONUS. This will support multiple 
shortwaves and surface lows moving through the flow, resulting in 
periodic chances for showers Thursday into Friday. Timing details 
remain uncertain at this range. Late week bears watching, as 
guidance suggests a stronger system could impact the region Thursday 
night into Friday, accompanied by a robust southerly low-level jet. 
This may bring a period of heavier rainfall and gusty winds. While 
details remain uncertain this far out, the potential exists for 
impactful conditions including hazardous marine weather. 
Astronomical tides appear relatively low late week, which should 
limit coastal flood potential unless a stronger system materializes. 

Behind the front, cooler temperatures return with highs generally in 
the upper 50s to lower 60s Wednesday and beyond.

.AVIATION /07Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...

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

06z Update:

Rest of Tonight: Moderate confidence on timing. 

Continued MVFR to IFR conditions and SHRA across the Cape and
Islands. Cannot rule out a passing shower for KBOS to KPVD, but
chances fall significantly after 12z. Winds come around to NW 
5-10 kts, easing across the interior to a light NW less than 
5kts.

Today: Moderate confidence in the extent of cloudcover. 

VFR and dry for western terminals. Eastern terminals for Sunday
AM is MVFR-IFF, with improvements through the late morning to
VFR, the Cape and island terminals improve by early afternoon.
Will have gusty NW winds 8-12 kts with a gusts to 20-25 kts.

IFR-MVFR, at least for east terminals early this morning For 
BOS this is likely a short window of lowered ceilings and 
scattered showers. Improving to VFR mid to late morning and 
closer to early afternoon for Cape/Island terminals. VFR for 
west/central terminals. NW winds 8-12 kts with a few gusts to 20
kts. 

Tonight: High confidence. VFR. W wind 5-10 kt

VFR. W winds 5-10 kts become lighter SW through the night. 

KBOS Terminal...Moderate to high confidence in TAF. Likely a 
short window of lowered ceilings between 10z-15z and scattered 
showers. Improvements after 15z to VFR with NW gusts 20-25 kts.

KBDL Terminal...High confidence in TAF.

Outlook /Monday Night through Thursday/...

Monday Night through Tuesday: VFR. Breezy. 

Tuesday Night: VFR. Breezy. Slight chance SHRA.

Wednesday: Mainly VFR, with areas MVFR possible. Breezy. Chance
SHRA.

Wednesday Night: Mainly VFR, with local IFR possible. Breezy.
SHRA likely.

Thursday: Mainly MVFR, with local VFR possible. Breezy. SHRA
likely.

.MARINE...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...

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

Overall high confidence.

NW winds increase this afternoon with some gusts to 25kts 
thru Monday evening. Will also see seas build to 4-6 feet across
the outer waters this afternoon thru Monday. Given these
conditions, the Small Craft Advisory goes into effect at 11am 
this morning and has been extended until 8pm Monday. Further
extensions to the SCA will likely be needed with future
forecast updates. 

Outlook /Monday Night through Thursday/...

Monday Night: Low risk for Small Craft Advisory winds with
gusts up to 25 kt. Seas up to 5 ft. 

Tuesday: Moderate risk for Small Craft Advisory winds with
gusts up to 30 kt. Local rough seas. 

Tuesday Night: Strong winds with gusts up to 30 kt. Areas of
rough seas. 

Wednesday: Moderate risk for Small Craft Advisory winds with
gusts up to 25 kt. Areas of rough seas. Chance of rain showers.

Wednesday Night: Moderate risk for Small Craft Advisory winds
with gusts up to 30 kt. Local rough seas. Rain showers likely. 

Thursday: Winds less than 25 kt. Local rough seas. Rain showers
