.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...Dry and cool conditions continue through the
weekend.
Cold start to the day today as radiational cooling cools the column
resulting in temperatures in the mid to low 20s inland and low to
mid 30s near the coast. Should see a quick rebound by this
afternoon with highs warming into the upper 50s to low 60s across
the interior. By tonight, overnight lows away from the coast likely
drop into the mid to low 30s. The relatively warmer low temps are
the result of slightly higher dew point temperatures that will range
from the mid 30s to the low 40s as a weak SWrly return flow ushers
in moisture. Warming trend continues into the early week as 925mb
temperatures warm significantly over the next 24 to 36 hours, up
from +3C this morning to +10C by this evening. This will jump
start a warming trend for the week.
KEY MESSAGE 2...Above normal temperatures Tuesday through Thursday,
with continued dry weather.
Surface high pressure continues to remain in control, essentially
thematic of the last roughly 10 days. However aloft, the 500 mb
pattern becomes increasingly amplified as a slow moving but powerful
frontal system over the nation's midsection induces a plume of
enhanced southwest flow aloft. This in turn will lead to an
amplifying 500 mb ridge and bring an anomalously warm low-level
airmass (e.g. 925 mb temps around +12 to +14C) over Southern New
England as we move into the Wednesday through Thursday timeframe.
Besides a continued stretch of dry weather/no rainfall - the region
hasn't seen an appreciable wetting rain since October 16th - the
main story for Tuesday through Thursday is above normal
temperatures. All this despite sunset times around 430 pm as we move
toward solar winter. The combo of continued southerly flow, the warm
low-level airmass and the drying soil should help boost high
temperatures to levels around 10 degrees above normal, especially as
we move into Wednesday and Thursday when the 925-850 mb thermal
ridge builds in. Expect highs to reach well into the 60s with some
low 70s as well (climo is around the mid 50s), and lows should also
run significantly above normal as well in the low to mid 50s (climo
in the mid 30s to lower 40s).
KEY MESSAGE 3...Turning unsettled Friday into at least a part of
next weekend.
Ensembles point to the amplified mid-level ridge from Wed/Thurs
shifting eastward into the western Atlantic by Friday, as the slow-
moving frontal system over the OH/MS Valleys begins to affect
Southern New England. There still are quite a few uncertainties and
unresolved details typical of a day-6 timeframe specific to this
system, including rain amounts, its timing and if the system can
draw on a plume of subtropical moisture to enhance rain rates.
Ensemble 24-hr QPF probabilities from Friday through Saturday show
moderate (40-60%) probabilities 0.5" or more of rain with low to
moderate (up to 30%) probabilities of an inch or more of rain. While
temps should still run above normal and also run a touch humid (by
early Nov standards), this looks to be the next really good chance
at much-needed wetting rainfall.
