The Calm.....After The Storm

Posted by Jeremy Reiner

Tricky storm indeed. Lynn picks up 1.8" of snow while 9 miles west, the city of Woburn gets 7.8" of snow. If you are a snow lover living along the waters edge, you may need to pack the bags & head west! Oh well, such is life. Our storm is pulling away but in the process of making way for an area of high pressure, it has created quite a bit of wind across the region. Many towns are experiencing wind gusts between 25-35mph and will have that kind of wind for much of the day. That means those daytime highs of 33, will actually feel like 15 when outside sledding, skiing or shoveling (That snow is heavy--go slow).

As we step closer to 2013, the last day of 2012 will offer more sunshine and still some wind--perhaps not quite as feisty. For New Years eve, dry conditions are expected with evening temps near 30 and overnight temps between 25-30. Wind chills will be from 18-25 for much of tomorrow night.

2013 starts how 2012 ends, clouds & sun with seasonably cold temps---mid 30s. Good day to chillax. Looking down the road, no big (or little) storms in sight--whew---just continued cold across the region with daytime highs in the 20s/30s & overnight lows in the teens.

Enjoy the day--bundle up!

Pulling The Fade

Posted by Chris Lambert

Our fun in the sun ends this afternoon as morning sunshine fades behind thickening clouds.  As those clouds increase, a few showers break out this afternoon from west to east, with the highest chance for rain late afternoon and this evening.  Most of the showers are light, especially the early afternoon ones, but a heavier shower or two is possible near day's end and early this evening.  Highs reach the mid to upper 60s around noon, then fall back to near 60 mid to late afternoon thanks to scattered showers.  These showers are brought to us by a warm front.

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?
