The Slow Rise Up

Posted by Chris Lambert

We're sliding out of the core of the cold, however, it's not quite a quick recovery to say the least.  Temperatures this afternoon warm into the lower to middle 20s, but with a breeze, it'll feel more like the teens.  The winds won't be as strong as what we've seen, but still active with gusts out of the northwest exceeding 20mph.   Slightly less wind and a bit warmer tomorrow.  We'll keep the sun around too.

Heading up north skiing this weekend?  Bundle up!  Temps across ski country struggle to reach the mid teens today, near 20 tomorrow.  With a brisk wind today, wind chill factors hover near zero, if not just below.  Wind won't be as gusty tomorrow, but still add a chill to the air.

We'll start off cold again Monday, but as a warm front approaches, we'll notice temps tick up a bit as well as clouds increasing.  As that warmer air pushes into the cold air in place, it initially rises up and over it, cools and condenses, and forms clouds and even some snow.  I do think we'll have to contend with a period of light snow late-day Monday into Monday night before it changes to drizzle and freezing drizzle Monday night.  Not much snow will fall, but a coating to and inch or two, combined with patch freezing drizzle, will create slick spots on the roads Monday evening and Monday night.

Much of that tapers off by Tuesday morning as temps warm to near 40 during the day with mostly cloudy skies.

Temps jump to the lower 50s on Wednesday with an active southerly breeze.  Those 50s are short-lived though as rain showers work in by day's end, and eventually a steadier period of rain overnight.  That rain is along a cold front, and on the other side, cold weather comes pouring back in by the end of the week. 

Have a nice weekend!

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. 

Pulling The Fade

Our fun in the sun ends this afternoon as morning sunshine fades behind thickening clouds.  As those clouds increase, a few showers break out this afternoon from west to east, with the highest chance for rain late afternoon and this evening.  Most of the showers are light, especially the early afternoon ones, but a heavier shower or two is possible near day's end and early this evening.  Highs reach the mid to upper 60s around noon, then fall back to near 60 mid to late afternoon thanks to scattered showers.  These showers are brought to us by a warm front.

Back and Forth

Quite a few clouds in the sky at times this afternoon, but the atmosphere lacked ample moisture to produce showers, so we made out just fine with temps near 70.  Even the coast made it well into the 60s before the onshore wind knocked temps back.
