Lookin' Good!

Played 18 holes for the first time this season yesterday and I forgot how tiring it can be! We had to get some practice in before the Helping Heroes tournament on Monday. I won't be the best on the team, but at least I can hold my own...I think. I'm not loving the weather, though, for next Monday, but I'll get to that in a sec.

Today will be just about as good as it gets! Sunny, low humidity, warm near 80. A minor sea breeze will keep the coast a few degrees cooler. Tomorrow is cooler all around in the lower 70s, but that's seasonable for this time of year! We'll see late day clouds work in tomorrow with showers holding off until Friday night. Saturday is pretty much a washout with off and on showers and pockets of heavy rain with highs in the mid 60s.

Sunday turns nice again with a mix of sun and clouds and highs in the lower 70s, but Monday turns not-so-nice. A huge area of low pressure will be sitting well to our east, but it'll be close enough to wrap in clouds, moisture, and wind. The 7 on 7 forecast looks worse than it'll actually be. We'll see mostly cloudy skies early next week with a chance of occasional light showers from time to time. I wouldn't call it a washout, but it certainly won't be pretty either. Just gray and damp feeling with highs in the upper 60s.

Although my forecast was busted today, there was one good thing that came out of it.

Stability.

That gray overcast that hung over the eastern half of the Commonwealth provided a stablizing influence to our atmosphere. The cool air blowing in from the ocean kept the temperatures in the upper 50s and low 60s all the way back to Metrowest. While that makes for lousy short-and-t-shirt weather, it is poison to thunderstorms.

Wild & Wacky

Wild temperatures yesterday---from the 80s down into the low 60s in just an hour AND some heavy duty thunderstorms. The reason was a cool front that dropped in from Maine. That front is in western New England this morning and it's a chameleon as it will become a warm front and try to warm things back up during the day.

What a day! Breakneck temperature swings, thunder, tornadoes in Western Mass....and we're still in late May!

More Warmth

You have another warm & humid day with many towns repeating yesterday's weather. That means we start with clouds & fog for a bit before hazy sun gets going. That hazy sunshine will boost temps up into the low 80s by early to mid afternoon across much of the region. At the same time a cool front will begin dropping out of Maine (backdoor front) which will quickly send temps from the 70s/80s down into the 50s/60s by late afternoon & evening. Also, when this front rams into the warmth & humidity it will spark a few showers & thunderstorms during the afternoon.
