Not A Good Beach Day

Posted by Jeremy Reiner

Unless you're an iceberg, not exactly beach weather the next couple of days. We have some wicked cold air around these parts--in fact, today is likely going to be our coldest day in 2 years as we spend the morning hours in the single numbers and only reach the mid teens by afternoon. That's just the cold. We will also have wind and that wind will drive wind chills down below zero for much of the day. Layers. Layers. Layers. Hey--at least the sun will be all bright & shiny! Bitterly cold once again for tonight with lows between -5 and + 5 in downtown Boston.

For tomorrow.....you can essentially just read that first paragraph over again. Arctic high pressure isn't moving the next 2 days which means the bitter air associate with that high pressure won't move much either so plan on another cold day. Plan on more sunshine too.

By Friday, we focus on a storm that will slide south of New England late in the day. Earlier this week, I thought we would see a lot of snow from this storm but now I think it will pass too far south of us providing only a glancing blow of snowfall. I does look like some light snow will fall Friday afternoon (after 4pm) and night mainly south of the MA Pike. A coating to an inch seems likely with perhaps 1-3" of snow down in Buzzards Bay/Cape/Islands Friday Night. Sunshine & cold look to be around for the upcoming weekend.

This Is How It Starts? Really?

Posted by Chris Lambert

So it's the unofficial start of summer this weekend and officially, the average high this time of year hits 70 degrees.  So you'd think we have a good shot at BBQ weather right?  Not much of a chance today with highs reaching near 50 this morning, only to fall back into the low to mid 40s this afternoon as a cold rain settles in.

Rain, rain, rain...

...but for many today was a day of hurry up and wait. Sure there were showers, but not every minute was washed out. With the events unfolding tonight, that's about to change.

So....what would you like to hear first? The good news? Bad news? Let's start with the good news....

Come On Ride The Train

Heavy rain is on the move! All afternoon long it was stalled over Western Massachusetts and Connecticut. Heavy pulses of rain traveled over the same towns and cities - a process meteorologists call "training" - resulting in flash flooding in some counties to our west.
