That Silly Groundhog

Posted by Pete Bouchard

Well, it's in the books. Officially 24.9" in Boston with the Blizzard of 2013. While some are left to wonder 'where do I start cleaning up?' we draw comparisons.

This storm ranks as the 5th greatest snowfall in Boston's history behind the mighty April Fools' Day Blizzard of 1997:

Did it snap you back into winter mode? If it didn't, the cold tonight certainly will. Low temperatures will tumble into the single digits - some just below zero - and low teens! Cold start tomorrow, but the 'warmth' of the (almost) February sun will shine through. Highs should manage to crack freezing and do some melting.

But where will the melted snow go? Back into the snowpack at night to refreeze. Watch your step Monday morning. And don't forget, that there are always several post-storm mornings to adjust to navigating snowbanks and step over new obstacles on the sidewalks.

Together we can...

...drive on the roads again.

Can Only Go Up From Here

Rain and drizzle continues tonight as temperatures drop into the mid 30s to 40 degrees.  Any burst of heavier precip drags down colder air, and elevations above 1000 feet in northern Worcester County  or southwester NH see wet snow mixing in overnight.  No shovels or plows needed for us, but it is a sure sign how cold the atmosphere is for late May.  As of this writing, Mt. Mansfield in VT has picked up 7.5" of snow and Whiteface Mtn. in NY has picked up 18"!

This Is How It Starts? Really?

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.
