Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Boston/Norton MA
127 PM EDT Mon Mar 9 2026
.WHAT HAS CHANGED...
No significant changes to the forecast. High confidence in near
record high temperatures Tuesday.
&&
.KEY MESSAGES...
- Area of fog quickly dissipate by mid-Tue morning. Otherwise...
sunshine returns Tue with near record highs in the upper 60s to
lower 70s away from the immediate coast.
- A more unsettled/active weather pattern Wed/Thu, with a round or
two of precipitation. Back to cool temperatures later Thu into
Friday.
- With dew points in the 30s and 40s, along with minor precip
events, expecting a controlled/diurnal snowmelt over the
coming week. Hence, only minor river flooding possible.
&&
KEY MESSAGE 1...Areas of fog quickly dissipate by mid-Tue morning.
Otherwise...sunshine returns Tue with near record highs in the upper
60s to lower 70s away from the immediate coast.
Areas of fog overnight into Tue morning, especially near the south
coast. The fog will quickly burn off after sunrise given a lot of
dry air just above the boundary layer.
Lots of sunshine again tomorrow/Tue and even warmer temps aloft,
from +12C/+13C today to +14/+15C Tue will yield another spring-like
day, with highs in the upper 60s to lower 70s. Given this, we
followed the warmer NBM 95 percentile for MaxT tomorrow. These temps
will come close to record highs for the day (see climate section for
specifics). Of course it will be noticeably cooler on the immediate
south coast, Cape and Islands given S-SW winds streaming across the
cool near shore waters.
KEY MESSAGE 2...Trending more unsettled Wed/Thu with a round or two
of precipitation. Back to cool temperatures late Thu into Friday.
Backdoor front slips into northeast MA late Tue night/early Wed and
then slowly lifts north as a warm front later Wed. This will yield
lots of clouds Wed along with a chance of showers, but by no means a
washout. Not as warm Wed given cloud cover and onshore flow, but
still mild with highs in the 50s, 60-65 inland. Deepening parent low
tracks thru the St Lawrence River Valley Wed night, with its
attending cold front entering SNE Thu. Strong jet dynamics coupled
with good moisture advection will yield widespread showers Wed night
into Thu. Models showing lots of spread regarding potential
anafrontal precip, with some of the guidance supporting rain
changing to snow and/or sleet before ending across the high terrain.
Friday the post frontal airmass overhead means cooler temperatures,
highs 40-45, which is on target for this time of year. Another
northern stream low passes to our north late Fri/Fri night, which
may bring some scattered rain/high elevation snow showers. Dry
weather is likely Sat behind this system and possibly lingering into
much of Sunday, before the next system impacts SNE Sun night into
Monday.
KEY MESSAGE 3...Expecting controlled/diurnal snowmelt over the
coming week. Thus, only minor river flooding possible.
Given dew pts are only expected to rise into the 30s and 40s, along
with minor precip events, we are expected a controlled/diurnal
snowmelt. This will contribute back to the watershed leading to
rises, but for the reasons mentioned above, only expecting minor
flood stages to be observed as a worse case scenario. Guidance
continues to indicate the most likely spots to see flooding are
along the Connecticut River by next weekend with addition of S. RI
rivers by early next week.

.AVIATION /18Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...
Low - less than 30 percent.
Moderate - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.
18z TAF Update: High confidence.
IFR/LIFR in fog should return quickly to Cape Cod and the
Islands by this evening and persist overnight. Elsewhere we
expect another night of patchy valley fog with more brief IFR
conditions. VFR Tue with S/SW flow. Conditions should improve
quickly Tue morning near Cape Cod and Islands.
Other concern is for a period of LLWS in central/eastern MA and
RI early tonight as SW winds at 2000 ft increase to 35-40kt.
KBOS Terminal...High confidence in TAF.
KBDL Terminal...High confidence in TAF.

.MARINE...
Forecaster Confidence Levels...
Low - less than 30 percent.
Moderate - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.
Today through Tuesday night...High confidence.
A weak pressure gradient will keep winds and seas below small craft
advisory thresholds through Tue night. Areas of fog...some of which
will be dense at times will impact our southern waters during the
overnight and early morning hours. This will result in poor vsbys
for mariners at times, but improving by mid to late morning.
Outlook /Wednesday through Saturday/...
Wednesday: Winds less than 25 kt. Seas locally approaching
5 ft. Slight chance of rain.
Wednesday Night: Strong winds with areas of gusts up to 30 kt.
Areas of rough seas. Chance of rain.
Thursday: Moderate risk for Small Craft Advisory winds with
gusts up to 30 kt. Rough seas up to 10 ft. Chance of rain.
Thursday Night: Moderate risk for Small Craft Advisory winds
with gusts up to 25 kt. Areas of rough seas. Chance of rain,
slight chance of snow.
Friday: Winds less than 25 kt. Areas of seas approaching 5 ft.
Friday Night: Strong winds with gusts up to 30 kt. Seas up to
5 ft. Chance of rain.
Saturday: Moderate risk for Small Craft Advisory winds with
gusts up to 30 kt. Areas of rough seas.
