Much Better

Posted by Jeremy Reiner

Here comes yet another storm into New England later today. This one will not feature snowflakes, only raindrops. Before those raindrops arrive (between 4-5pm) we have a decent late winter day on tap with sunshine giving way to clouds and milder temps than Monday. Most towns will easily reach the low 40s by early afternoon. Perhaps the biggest thing about today is the amount of wind---or lack of. Huge this time of year when outside for any length of time. All in all, a great day  to take the kids sledding, skiing or tubing (before 4pm).

This system zips through here this evening with many towns picking up a quick .5" of rain by midnight. After midnight, skies will clear out and colder air returns. Slick spots are likely after midnight and into the early morning hours on Wednesday. Wednesday will offer more sunshine but seasonably chilly weather as well with afternoon highs in the mid 30s. More of the same for Thursday.

As we head toward the weekend, the active pattern lives up to its name with another storm taking shape in the central part of the country and eventually ends up on the east coast. You know what that means....another storm around these parts by late Saturday & Sunday. At this time, it looks like a sizeable snowstorm---enough to shovel & plow around.

Enjoy your Tuesday

Just In Time

Summer officially starts Friday at 1:04 A.M., and Mother Nature's sending in summer weather for us just in time.  Mid to late June averages highs near 80 degrees, and we'll be there temperature-wise over the next few days.  Mostly dry too!

That's A Wrap--I Think

I hope I'm not jinxing us with this statement.."The recent wet pattern is over....onto sunshine & a more summer- like pattern.." The last time someone from 7 weather called a pattern change too soon we got a blizzard and 3 subsequent nor'easters (looking at you Pete!!--LOL). We don't have to worry about any blizzards or nor'easters but one never knows in the new world order.

If you were caught in those 'cloudbursts' today, you had more than you could handle in the rain department. Torrents fell in a short amount of time - what we deem 'flash flooding' in the weather biz. Since it happens suddenly, the National Weather Service has adopted the acronym TADD:

Bam! Pow!

Bam. Pow! Those were some nasty storms last evening with some towns in metrowest & the city itself blasted with locally heavy rain, hail, lightning and strong wind gusts. A cool front is the culprit and that front will linger across the region again today. That means another round of some scattered showers & t-storms likely.
