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.

Wild & Wacky

Wild temperatures yesterday---from the 80s down into the low 60s in just an hour AND some heavy duty thunderstorms. The reason was a cool front that dropped in from Maine. That front is in western New England this morning and it's a chameleon as it will become a warm front and try to warm things back up during the day.

Storms, Heat, Sea Breezes

What a day! Breakneck temperature swings, thunder, tornadoes in Western Mass....and we're still in late May!

More Warmth

You have another warm & humid day with many towns repeating yesterday's weather. That means we start with clouds & fog for a bit before hazy sun gets going. That hazy sunshine will boost temps up into the low 80s by early to mid afternoon across much of the region. At the same time a cool front will begin dropping out of Maine (backdoor front) which will quickly send temps from the 70s/80s down into the 50s/60s by late afternoon & evening. Also, when this front rams into the warmth & humidity it will spark a few showers & thunderstorms during the afternoon.

Summ-ah!

With the snap of the fingers we were thrown into summer this afternoon. Heat, humidity, A/C and shorts - with a hazy sun to boot. But with the sea breeze knocking back the temperatures (and bringing in a round of downpours this evening), there are changes afoot.
