Football, Turkey, Football, Turkey, More Football

Posted by Chris Lambert

Not quite sure how the day's events play out at your house, but it's a pretty good bet that turkey and football are involved... several times throughout the day.   Fortunately, shoveling and shivering in the cold is not on the list as sunshine warms us up into the lower 50s this afternoon and the breeze remains fairly light.

If that's not warm enough for you, tomorrow we'll top off in the middle 50s.  So for all you die-hard shoppers, the weather won't slow you down, the crowds on the other hand, probably will.

Some changes are on the way over the weekend as a cold front crashes in Saturday.  There won't be much moisture with this front, but I do expect a passing shower or two in the morning, and as the cold air pours in, maybe a passing flurry in the Worcester Hills and Monadnocks in the afternoon.  Temps go from the upper 40s around midday to the upper 30s by late afternoon.

Sunday remains breezy with temps struggling to climb out of the 30s and nudge 40.

Monday is quiet as well, but the potential is there for some rain or rain/snow mix to move in Tuesday.  Right now, the track remains uncertain, but it does appear enough warm air works in for all rain Tuesday night/Wednesday.  We're 6-7days out, so plenty of time to fine tune this forecast.

Happy Thanksgiving and have a wonderful weekend with family and friends!

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.

Storms, Heat, Sea Breezes

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.

Summ-ah!

With the snap of the fingers we were thrown into summer this afternoon. Heat, humidity, A/C and shorts - with a hazy sun to boot. But with the sea breeze knocking back the temperatures (and bringing in a round of downpours this evening), there are changes afoot.
