Easing Into Winter

Posted by Jeremy Reiner

Ready for some snow? Me too! It's not a blockbuster storm, rather, a storm to send you into a Currier & Ives moment or two. The storm will slide out of Pennsylvania and just south of New England today.  Plan on patches of light snow & flurries later this morning and lasting through the overnight hours. As the storm makes its closest pass to us this evening there is likely to be a steadier burst of snow after 7pm & lasting up until 4am Wednesday morning. The best chance for the *burst* of snow will be from Boston to Attleboro down to New Bedford and back to Hull. The snowfall forecast map shows where the snow burst is likely to occur tonight:

For most it's a coating to an inch event but you folks in Bristol & western Plymouth counties you may need to do some shoveling and plows may be out late tonight & early tomorrow morning.

The little storm that could (and will) leaves quickly tomorrow morning allowing some sunshine to return by afternoon. Despite the afternoon sunshine, temps will struggle to reach the low 40s--another day of below normal temps. In fact, temps stay below normal for the remainder of the week with afternoon temps staying in the 30s on Friday! #Brrr

Just In Time

Summer officially starts Friday at 1:04 A.M., and Mother Nature's sending in summer weather for us just in time.  Mid to late June averages highs near 80 degrees, and we'll be there temperature-wise over the next few days.  Mostly dry too!

That's A Wrap--I Think

I hope I'm not jinxing us with this statement.."The recent wet pattern is over....onto sunshine & a more summer- like pattern.." The last time someone from 7 weather called a pattern change too soon we got a blizzard and 3 subsequent nor'easters (looking at you Pete!!--LOL). We don't have to worry about any blizzards or nor'easters but one never knows in the new world order.

If you were caught in those 'cloudbursts' today, you had more than you could handle in the rain department. Torrents fell in a short amount of time - what we deem 'flash flooding' in the weather biz. Since it happens suddenly, the National Weather Service has adopted the acronym TADD:

Bam! Pow!

Bam. Pow! Those were some nasty storms last evening with some towns in metrowest & the city itself blasted with locally heavy rain, hail, lightning and strong wind gusts. A cool front is the culprit and that front will linger across the region again today. That means another round of some scattered showers & t-storms likely.
