.WHAT HAS CHANGED...
General forecast trends remain unchanged.

.KEY MESSAGES...

- Cool today with some scattered shower chances. Otherwise, dry 
  and turning even colder overnight.

- Seasonable temperatures return Wednesday and through the rest 
  of the week.

- Some uncertainty remains for the latter half of the week
  regarding the chance for more unsettled conditions.

.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...Cool today with some scattered shower chances. 
Otherwise, dry and turning even colder overnight.

An upper level trough settles overhead today, which will lead to 
colder air making its way into southern New England. 925 mb 
temperatures today struggle to get above 0C, supportive of highs 
only in the low 50s and upper 40s. Winds will be breezy and mostly 
NW with occasional gusts in the afternoon around 20-25 MPH. They 
will start to diminish as high pressure approaches from the west 
heading into tonight. Even with the aforementioned approaching high 
pressure, a weak low pressure passing through the region today will 
bring increased cloud cover and some scattered showers. Any showers 
that do pop up are expected more so in the afternoon hours today, 
and the highest chances are primarily centered around the northern 
MA border and the south coast. Eastern MA could see some as well, 
primarily in the later afternoon hours into the evening. With 
regards to any chances for thunder, chances are quite low. MUCAPE 
values in high res guidance are only around 200 J/kg along the south 
coast and generally north of MA through much of the afternoon, then 
shifting towards eastern MA towards 6 PM. HREF thunder probs are 
also below 10 percent. Some convective showers cannot be completely 
ruled out, but confidence in embedded thunder or lightning 
developing is low at this time. Outside these rain chances, 
conditions will be very dry as dew points are around 20 degrees 
lower than the expected air temperatures today.

Tonight, it gets even colder as we have more of a radiational 
cooling setup. As the colder air builds in, any lingering showers 
may also mix with wet snowflakes, but chances for that remain very 
low. Skies clear and winds shift more N and go light overnight. The 
colder airmass remains affixed overhead, with 925 mb temperatures 
falling to around -5C overnight. In the interior, lows may dip into 
the low 20s, particularly in the higher elevations. Subfreezing 
temperatures are expected across southern New England, aside from 
more coastal areas. However, it will still get close to freezing in 
those areas, bottoming out in the mid 30s.

Temperatures remain cool for Tuesday, though will steadily be 
improving as the upper level trough and associated cold airmass 
progress offshore. This improvement will be more noticeable Tuesday 
night as lows will generally be in the 30s across the region. High 
pressure builds in, maintaining dry conditions.

KEY MESSAGE 2...Seasonable temperatures return Wednesday and through 
the rest of the week

Some showers are a possibility once again heading into Wednesday as 
a weak boundary approaches, but more seasonable temperatures make a 
return as the trough from early this week exits. 925 mb temperatures 
recover to around 5C, supporting more seasonable highs in the low to 
mid 50s. NW flow makes a return heading into Thursday in the wake of 
that weak boundary, and high pressure builds back in then as upper 
level ridging approaches, keeping southern New England dry. Highs 
for Thursday and Friday should also remain seasonable barring any 
drastic changes in upcoming forecasts.

KEY MESSAGE 3...Some uncertainty remains for the latter half of the 
week regarding the chance for more unsettled conditions

There are still some discrepancies regarding the placement of the 
western edge of the upper level trough that becomes centered over 
the Canadian Maritimes, which may affect how far east warmer 
temperatures aloft make it for the second half of the week. These 
would, in turn, affect highs later this week and into the weekend. 
This also impacts when and where we could see some more unsettled 
conditions make a return during that same time period. The ridge 
progressing east approaches southern New England Friday, but 
depending on that upper level low and how far west it lingers, we 
may see some showers and cooler conditions. Aside from that, another 
frontal system arriving Saturday may provide our next chance for 
some rain.
