.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...Showers mainly across far southeastern areas of 
southern New England this morning, followed by drier conditions this 
afternoon through Tuesday night and cooler temperatures.

Rain showers early this Monday morning are associated with a surface 
wave of low pressure moving along a departing cold front that 
extends from northern Maine south through the Seacoast of New 
Hampshire, then southwest toward the Jersey Shore. This cold front 
slowly moves southeast over the waters, while there remains a risk 
for light rain this morning mainly from southeast Connecticut 
through Providence to the southern Boston suburbs. The rest of the 
region should remain dry. Showers are most prevalent across coastal 
Rhode Island, the south coast of Massachusetts, Cape Cod, and the 
Islands, coming to an end by 8 AM to 10 AM, though clouds and 
showers may persist over Nantucket into the afternoon given its 
proximity to the front. Rainfall amounts are light, generally a few 
hundredths of an inch to as much as a tenth or two across Cape Cod 
and the Islands.

Behind the cold front, winds aloft shift from west to northwest, 
advecting lower humidity into the region. PWATs fall below one-third 
of an inch. Low stratus clears behind the front from northwest to 
southeast, giving way to a blend of sunshine and fair weather cu 
during the afternoon. That said, given the slow movement of the 
front, far southeast Massachusetts, Cape Cod, and the Islands may 
remain overcast into the afternoon. Associated with the drier 
airmass are cooler temperatures. 850 mb temperatures fall sharply 
from +7 to +10C Sunday afternoon to 0 to +3C Monday afternoon. 
BUFKIT soundings show deep mixing with strong cold air advection, 
supporting high temperatures in the upper 50s to mid 60s. Along with 
dew points lowering into the lower to mid 20s. Winds from the 
northwest around 10 mph with gusts up to 20 mph are expected mainly 
across central and western Massachusetts and northern
Connecticut.

Late Monday night into Tuesday morning, a fairly amplified mid-level 
trough and robust shortwave moves through southern New England. As 
mentioned, PWATs remain low, and outside of an isolated and brief 
shower, the night should be dry with intermittent low to mid-level 
cloud cover. Tuesday morning begins with low temperatures in the 
upper 30s to low 40s across most of southern New England, with the 
Cape and Islands in the mid to upper 40s. This trough shifts east 
and offshore, leading to increasing mid-level heights from the west. 
Overall, Tuesday looks pleasant albeit cool given abundant sunshine. 
With 850 mb temperatures not rebounding, expect another day of highs 
in the upper 50s to mid 60s.

KEY MESSAGE 2...Unsettled period with increasing chances for 
widespread soaking rain and continued cooler temperatures.

High pressure exits east of the region on Wednesday ahead of the 
next opportunity for active weather. Shortwave ridging provides 
drier conditions for the first half of Wednesday, but as the flow 
turns from northwest to southwest, this directional shift advects 
higher humidity and PWATs between 0.8 and 1.0 inches back into 
southern New England by late Wednesday afternoon. Exact timing 
remains uncertain, but the general idea is that morning hours are 
dry, with rain chances increasing during the afternoon from west to 
east as a mid-level warm front approaches from the west-southwest. 
The longwave trough becomes cutoff over northern New England and 
southern Quebec on Thursday, then slowly shifts southeast toward the 
Gulf of Maine on Friday. As the mid-level low and surface low become 
vertically stacked, unsettled conditions are likely to persist into 
Thursday, with gradual improvement by Friday as surface high 
pressure builds in from the southwest and ridging develops from the 
west.

This system could bring beneficial rainfall. Global ensembles 
indicate moderate probabilities for 0.5"+ of rainfall, with ECMWF 
and Canadian ensembles between 60 and 80 percent, while the GEFS is 
slightly lower at 40 to 60 percent. Another way to view this: the 
25th percentile across these ensembles suggests 0.20 to 0.40 inches 
of total rainfall, while the 75th percentile ranges from 0.50 to 
1.00 inches. Still, there is plenty of time to refine details. 
Temperatures mid to late week remain below normal, with afternoon 
highs in the lower to middle 60s Wednesday and Thursday, and mid to 
upper 60s by Friday, assuming the cutoff low shifts east of the 
region and ridging develops. If the cutoff low lingers, another 
cooler day is possible.

KEY MESSAGE 3...Warmer weekend, lower confidence in sensible weather 
details.

Upper trough exits and heights rise heading into next weekend, 
supporting above-normal temperatures with highs into the 70s. 
Confidence remains lower regarding precipitation timing due to 
potential embedded shortwaves, but overall trends favor mainly dry 
conditions with only low-probability scattered showers.
