Winter Goes On Spring Break

Posted by Chris Lambert

Mid March tends to bring in plenty of 40s and 50s, and it looks like that's where Mother Nature is heading for now despite the calendar stuck in early to mid January. 

The exception to that will be tomorrow and tomorrow night.  It won't be brutally cold, but after a few scattered morning flurries, perhaps even a rain or snow shower across SE Mass, temps stick in the middle 30s for the afternoon.   Sunshine does return by late morning and continue through the rest of the day, so it'll be a pretty good day overall.   As high pressure settles in overnight, clear skies and light winds allows temps to fall into the teens in the burbs and in the 20s in the city.

Despite a cold start to Tuesday, Tuesday is the turnaround day with highs back into the mid 40s.  Even a few upper 40s pop in Wednesday, although a cold front could spark an isolated shower late-day.

That front is just a glancing blow of cooler air, so Thursday we're back to the low 40s. 

Showers roll in Friday afternoon and Friday night, and exit stage east for the weekend.

Once we lose the rain... it's bring on the 50s with Sunday looking nice and mild for the Pats vs Texans at Gillette with highs in the lower to middle 50s in Foxboro.

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.

Thunderous Start to Workweek

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.
