by BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account 21 May '22

21 May '22

Good morning everyone, Attached is our latest forecast update for today and tomorrow. Very little changes have been made. *Heat:* Heat Advisories are posted for much of southern New England with the expectation of heat index values reaching the 95-100F range, especially away from the coast. Actual temperatures will be in the mid 90s in those same areas both today and again tomorrow. Low temperatures tonight will not drop below 70F in many areas, especially urban areas. *Potential Strong Thunderstorms Sunday:* There is still a risk for strong to possibly severe thunderstorms to move into western sections of Massachusetts and Connecticut Sunday afternoon, primarily after 4pm. The NWS Storm Prediction Center has included the far northwest portion of Massachusetts in a "Slight Risk" for Severe Thunderstorms. This is actually a slightly smaller area than previous forecasts. We will continue to monitor the potential and provide an update later this afternoon. See attached for the 1-Pager, along with additional images showing the maximum heat index values today and Sunday and the Storm Prediction Center's outlook. Stay cool.

[2022.05.20 100 PM UPDATE] NWS Boston EM Briefing: Weekend summer heat & humidity, Strong Storms Possible Sunday
by BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account 20 May '22

20 May '22

Good afternoon everyone, We're still finalizing the forecast but we did want to send a short update to the briefing sent this morning to discuss our current thinking. Expect a full briefing with updated graphics to be sent by 5 PM today. *Heat and Humidity Saturday and Sunday* We are not anticipating any significant changes to the heat and humidity forecast for the weekend to what was briefed this morning. The first occurrence of true mid-summer heat and humidity arrives Saturday and continues into Sunday. Heat Advisories remain in effect for areas away from the coastlines and away from the Berkshires. Air temperatures in the 90s with heat indices between 95 and 102 degrees. *Confidence in the heat forecast is high*. *Strong to Severe Storms Possible Sunday Afternoon* Widely scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are possible Sunday afternoon, especially across northern & western CT into western & central MA. Localized straight line wind damage and hail would be the greatest risks in any strong to severe storms which develop. Attached is the Severe Thunderstorm Outlook for Sunday from the Storm Prediction Center. *Confidence in the thunderstorm forecast is moderate*. The overall coverage of thunderstorms is the largest question mark. Thank You!
