The Song Remains The Same

Posted by Jeremy Reiner

The message out of the weather office remains the same (as does the song/Zeppelin), warm weather.  We had high temps reach the mid 40s yesterday but I think we can do better than that over the next few days. Take today, after we scour out some chilly pockets of air (and freezing fog), we can easily reach the mid 40s and perhaps flirt with 50 in some cities/towns. The sun will battle some clouds for much of the day.

Those clouds are tied to a cool front that will slide through here this evening. That front is cool, not arctic though, so Thursday's temps won't take a hit. Many towns will reach the low & middle 40s once again. Some wind on Thursday morning will get in the way of that mild air.

Friday does offer some slightly cooler weather with more clouds around as well as a few rain showers. These showers are tied to a weak weather system--a system that lacks arctic air. In fact, after that system bounces out of here this weekend, temps will also bounce--up, reaching the low to mid 50s! Yes, it will be warm for that Patriots game Sunday afternoon with temps in the 50s for much of the day & early evening hours.

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.

Feet First

Right into summer. Warm & humid weather expected for much of the week. Good?.....Well, keep in mind that warmth & humidity are the 2 key ingredients for thunderstorms. The last being something to *lift* that warm/humid air. Usually a front is a good device to do such that. Today, we will have a cool front approach New England very late in the day & evening. That may lead to an isolated storm or two after 4pm but most towns just have a fair amount of clouds, warmth & humidity. Temps will climb to near 80 by afternoon.

Warming Up and Unsettled

Well, it certainly was a great weekend weather-wise until this afternoon when the temps dropped and light showers moved in from west to east.  Despite the cool down, the theme for this upcoming week is warmer with higher humidity.  It'll also be unsettled at times.
