It's funny how the weather can bring certain feelings and memories to your mind. With the time change and it getting darker earlier, with chilly temps, and with the angle of the sun getting lower and lower -- it reminds me of Christmas time already. Even though it IS only early November, I'm already bitten by the Christmas bug. Yeah, yeah -- I know... it's a little too early for that, but it's November and it is NEVER to early to start playing one of my favorite songs of ALL time er, um, a really cool song on loop. You ready for it??
Ok, it's a little embarrassing but seriously who DOESN'T LOVE THIS SONG!? I don't care who you are, it just is a good fun song. It adds an extra spring in your step.
Whoa, whoa... back it up for a second. Why am I talking about this already?? Well, because even though it may seem like December out this morning, the rest of the weekend will bring you back to mid-autumn. You know, more like Columbus Day than Christmas. We're talking about temps in the 60s by Sunday afternoon!
First thing's first. Today a warm front will go through, but will take most of the day to pass by. So after a COLD start, mostly sunny skies will help temps recover to the low 50s today. With fairly light winds, and dry conditions, it will be a pleasant but cool day.
Tonight, a weak cold front will scoot by, just bringing patchy clouds (but no rain!) and that will keep temps from getting quite as cold as last night. Upper 30s and low 40s.
Tomorrow morning may feature a few clouds, but more sunshine is on the way and even though a cold front went through, the air behind it is actually more mild, so we will see temps climb into the low to mid 60s!!! Perfect tomorrow. (If you like that sort of weather).
The quiet pattern continues into the first half of the week, and temps by Monday could be flirting with 70° in some spots! NICE.
Next significant chance of some rain? Not until Tuesday night/Wednesday morning. But we will have to keep our eye on Tropical Storm Ida - the models (computer, not Cindy Crawford type) are having a tough time figuring out where the remnants will go, so while there is a slight chance we could see some rain from the storm by midweek, right now it looks like it will stay off to the south of us.
Have a great weekend and rock out to whatever song you like!
JR here---just a quick and special hello to the 1st graders at the Dolbeare Elementary School up in Wakefield. I visited the school Friday morning---we had a blast. Thanks Kids!
Headed northbound on I-93 through Stoneham, you can now see our forecasts proudly displayed on the 7 News billboard! Next stop...Fenway?? (Whaddya think Theo?)
