Back to Work, School & Mornings

Posted by Jeremy Reiner

At least for a while, I'll be back on mornings--perhaps longer. In terms of our weather, it's a chilly pattern this week with each day offering temps below normal (normal being 48). The upshot of this chilly air is that it's dry air so most of the week is storm-free. Mostly.

Today offers a mix of sun & clouds and temps will crawl into the low & mid 40s for a few hours this afternoon. A westerly wind around 10mph will be present and this (aside from it being Monday) will be your enemy as that wind will add a chill to the air. Clear skies this evening with clouds returning late tonight.

Tomorrow offers our only *storm* of the week. It's a weak storm that will pass south of New England by a wide margin. Those 2 factors prevent that storm from being a bread & milk storm. A storm nonetheless with cloudy skies and the likelihood of seeing a few snow flurries. The best chance for the snow flurries will be along & south of the MA pike beginning midday and lasting into late afternoon. There could even be a burst of some light snow for a few hours tomorrow afternoon. If that were to happen, then a coating of snow would be likely from the Attleboro area eastward to the South Shore. Cloudy skies are all that is likely north of the Ma Pike.

By Wednesday, it's back to sunshine but continued cold with temps remaining below normal. In fact, even colder weather looks to arrive by Friday with afternoon temps stuck in the 30s.

Have a great Monday--happy cyber-shopping!

Can Only Go Up From Here

Rain and drizzle continues tonight as temperatures drop into the mid 30s to 40 degrees.  Any burst of heavier precip drags down colder air, and elevations above 1000 feet in northern Worcester County  or southwester NH see wet snow mixing in overnight.  No shovels or plows needed for us, but it is a sure sign how cold the atmosphere is for late May.  As of this writing, Mt. Mansfield in VT has picked up 7.5" of snow and Whiteface Mtn. in NY has picked up 18"!

This Is How It Starts? Really?

So it's the unofficial start of summer this weekend and officially, the average high this time of year hits 70 degrees.  So you'd think we have a good shot at BBQ weather right?  Not much of a chance today with highs reaching near 50 this morning, only to fall back into the low to mid 40s this afternoon as a cold rain settles in.

Rain, rain, rain...

...but for many today was a day of hurry up and wait. Sure there were showers, but not every minute was washed out. With the events unfolding tonight, that's about to change.
