A Chill In The Air

Posted by Jeremy Reiner

It was only a matter of time. That first day where it's cloudy, chilly and breezy--the day that tells you, Fall is approaching. Today was that day as most towns failed to make it out of the 60s for afternoon temps. It gets better. #Sarcasm

Those clouds were actually produced by the sun's energy bouncing into some very cold air upstairs. When the sun sets, those clouds will quickly fade away setting us up for a cold night. Check out these numbers:

Yowza! Look at Norwood's temp as well as Boston...that's some range! That happens this time of year and will likely happen again on Wednesday morning. Dry air is the culprit. It can certainly cool off fast but it can also warm up fast this time of year (as well as spring). That means afternoon temps will easily reach the low 70s. In fact, by Thursday, afternoon temps will approach 80!

Ok, early fall is fine by me.

Back and Forth

Quite a few clouds in the sky at times this afternoon, but the atmosphere lacked ample moisture to produce showers, so we made out just fine with temps near 70.  Even the coast made it well into the 60s before the onshore wind knocked temps back.

Pretty Good Weekend Overall

Sure, it's a cool start with many of the suburbs down into the upper 30s and lower 40s, but we'll warm up quickly through the day as that sun helps us out.

Strong Finish

An overall cooler day, but also a great end to the workweek as highs neared 70, low humidity continued and plenty of sunshine dominated the skies.  Now all we need is this to continue through the weekend right?

Still Good

How about yesterday?  The 82 in Boston matched the warmest temp we've had since September 13th.  Of course, with a wind gusting past 30mph and relative humidity near 18%, it certainly didn't feel oppressive.
