Improvements

I'm not sure why I wait until the hottest days of the year to finish up the garden and backyard. But I did and it's done and now I can go out and enjoy this weekend! And the weather looks fantastic this weekend too.

Today is our last day (third day) with highs in the 90s, so we should get our first official heat wave of the summer. Today we'll see showers and storms pop up between 4-6pm. The biggest threats with these storms will be brief wind gusts and downpours. It's a cold front that will keep scattered showers and storms in the area through tonight and tomorrow morning. Otherwise this weekend we'll see a mix of sun and clouds, low humidity, and highs in the lower 80s. Beautiful!

Next week gets more unsettled with highs in the mid 70s. Clouds and showers are possible Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday.

Have a wonderful weekend! And Happy Wedding Day to Chris Lambert and his soon to be wife Meredith!!!

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.
