Time For A Change

Posted by Pete Bouchard

On this 4th of May we celebrated Star Wars (may the 4th be with you), planned our Cinco de Mayo parties, wagered on the Kentucky Derby,

AND

brought back the sun...to parts of the Commonwealth.

I'm betting that there's more to be had this weekend too - and it won't be limited to Greater Worcester or Western Mass. This is the kind of sun we can all celebrate. The days are much longer, the sun angle's high, and the 60s will take over both days.

The start to Saturday may be a little drab and cool, and afternoon temps will still hover near 60 along the coast, but sun is sun, right?

Sunday has a cool, crisp start, but the skies will be blue most everywhere. Few more clouds in Southeast Mass. thanks to the northeast wind, but...sun's sun, right?

Let's not let this go to our head. Our pattern is still active, the jetstream is moving along, and there's another storm brewing for next wee...

..but that's next week, right?

Enjoy your weekend and watch for pedestrians and motorcycles!

The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow

I dozed off on the couch at 4pm...until 6:10pm. You'd think I'd have been well-rested, but it was right to bed after that and I slept all through the night! I'm not gonna lie, this weather is getting a little depressing, but it was the perfect excuse to get some much needed sleep! Do I feel wide awake this morning? Come on...it's 5am! I'll never feel fully awake at 5am!

Well, we're two days into solar summer, and we have yet to see any bold sunshine.

Wait, what? Solar summer? When did that start? And what does it mean?

Simply put, it's the three months (May, June, July) where the days are longest and the sun angle highest in the sky. It's a solar milestone, not a climatological one.

WAKE UP!!!

I definitely yawned more than normal yesterday. I just couldn't snap out of being tired! I know rain isn't the end of the world, but the clouds, chilly temperatures, and damp conditions really make it tough to muster up a whole bunch of energy. How are you feeling?

It's a long road back to the warm weather.

And there's likely to be some serious warm weather envy in the coming days. Especially when your thermometer is sitting in the upper 50s and our neighbors in Springfield, Pittsfield and the like are nudging 70.
