Normal Weekend

Posted by Pete Bouchard

It was "only" 37 degrees today, but it felt t-shirt worthy after that blast of arctic air.

Goes to show that it only takes a change in wind direction (some of the time) to scour out the arctic air. With its departure, we're essentially back to normal and back to the pattern that dominated for the beginning of December....that being predominately mild temperatures and occasional jabs of...rain.

More on that in a minute. First off: the weekend. Seasonable mid 30s ought to do it with a good supply of sun on Saturday. Sunday is a lot cloudier and with a weak weather system zipping through, we'll see a few snowshowers both early (mostly around sunrise) and late (mostly after sunset). All told, Sunday night has the best chance for some accumulation, but we're not talking about a lot. It's a coating at best areawide.

Longer range, we're getting warmer. 40s will return by midweek, then it's over to upper 40s late week as a mild weather system jacks up the mild air and brings in the rain. Not a flooding rain at this point, but it will be enough to kick back those snowbanks - or even banish them all together in some parts of the Commonwealth.

Make it a good weekend!

Like A Waterfall

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!

Posted by Jeremy Reiner

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.

Thunderous Start to Workweek

Posted by Pete Bouchard

Heat and a bit of humidity fed a strong - and sometimes severe - line of thunderstorms today. By the time the dinner hour rolled around (6pm-ish), the storms had consolidated into a line. Everyone got a drink of water and a big drop in temperatures - some falling nearly 20 degrees in minutes!

As we exit our recent soggy pattern we do so with one more weather system capable of producing scattered showers & t-storms. This cool front is a slow mover (aren't we all on Monday mornings?!) up in northern New England right now. This slow moving front will settle into our part of the world very late this afternoon bringing a chance of some scattered t-storms between 4-pm. Until then you have a great day with mostly sunny skies along with temperatures in the low 80s. For some, a bit on the humid side for much of the day.
