.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...Expect a few isolated showers around today with cooler
temperatures. Warmer Tuesday with isolated showers or a stray
storm possible.
Another push of cold air gets ushered into today with northeasterly
flow. This will bring cool day with cooler than normal highs in the
upper 50s and 60s. Expect warmer temperatures in the CT Valley in
the mid to upper 60s while onshore flow keeps the east coastal areas
on the cooler side struggling to get into the low 60s. A weak quick-
moving piece of shortwave energy drops across the region today.
However marginal moisture will likely limit it to some isolated or
"pop-up" showers in the afternoon.
Tuesday, the core of lower 500mb heights shifts east although
southern New England still remains under the blocky upper trough.
With the slight moderation in heights, temperatures should follow
suite, warming a few degrees from Monday. This should support a more
seasonable day with high temperatures in the low to mid 70s with
local sea breezes. Coastal areas may end up a bit cooler in the
upper 60s where the sea breeze sets up. There are indications across
model guidance for another weak piece of shortwave energy shifting
southward across the region resulting in another shot for pop-up
showers in the afternoon. There are indications of marginal
instability that will build with the help of the incoming shortwave
and warmer temperatures. As a result, a few isolated storms can't be
ruled out.
Wednesday trends mainly dry as an amplified ridge nudges in from the
west while pushing the deep trough just barely offshore. This will
begin the warming trend in temperatures. 850mb temperatures rise a
couple degrees from Tuesday likely supporting highs in the 70s in
most spots with the warmest temperatures in the valleys
(75-80F).
KEY MESSAGE 3...Forecast confidence decreases for late-week.
Conditions more likely lean dry and warm, but we continue to
monitor the potential for an offshore system to bring showers.
Forecast uncertainty increases regarding the upper-level pattern
heading into late week. Ensemble guidance shows general agreement
that an amplified upper-level ridge will build east into the region,
slowly pushing the deep trough further offshore. However, model
spread increases concerning a potential closed low developing at the
base of the trough near the Carolinas and tracking northward. While
ensemble means currently favor this low to track well offshore (dry
conditions), some deterministic and ensemble members across previous
runs have suggested a closer track to the 40N/70W benchmark. If this
closer track verifies, if could bring showers to the area Thursday
to Friday in east locations (Cape and Islands). If it is dry as
majority of guidance suggests, there is a signal for a strong ridge
aloft to bring an anomalously warm airmass into the region. This may
support summer-like temperatures in the low to mid 80s, perhaps
nearing 90 in the CT Valley.
Details remain uncertain, but there is a consensus across ensemble
guidance for a potential system to bring showers sometime
Saturday.

.AVIATION /12Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...
Low - less than 30 percent.
Moderate - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.
12Z TAF Update:
Through 00Z...Moderate Confidence in timing.
MVFR ceilings persist on NE flow thru at least 16z. It may
potentially spread as far as BDL, though lower confidence.
Potential for patchy IFR at BOS and Cape and Island terminals.
Today...Moderate Confidence (cigs/timing of improvements).
MVFR ceilings possible this morning with higher probabilities
for the eastern terminals, but could expand as far as ORH.
Patchy IFR possible along east coast terminals early this
morning. Ceilings likely improving 15-18Z.
N to NE winds at 08-15 kts, strongest for coastal terminals.
Period of gusts around 20 kts possible after 15Z-18Z mainly for
coastal terminals. Low chance (< 10%) that an isolated -SHRA
develops and makes is as far south as BOS before the morning.
Low chance (< 10%) for an isolated shower in afternoon.
Tonight...High Confidence.
VFR. Light winds mainly from the W/WSW and more N for the Cape
terminals.
KBOS...Moderate confidence in TAF trends. Hit-and-miss showers
remain through midnight with very low risk of an isolated
thunderstorm in the vicinity of the terminal. Stratus deck
towards the Monday morning push could have lower bases.
KBDL...High confidence in TAF.
Outlook /Tuesday through Friday/...
Tuesday through Thursday Night: VFR.
Friday: VFR. Breezy.
