Back To The Grind

Posted by Jeremy Reiner

Back into the grind with work & school for all of us but at least that sun will shine through the day. This time of year that sunshine can really get to work and it will today pushing temps into the low 40s. A lot of that sloppy slush on the sidewalks/parking lots will melt away through the day. Except for it being Monday, a decent late winter day ahead. Mostly clear tonight with areas of refreeze expected.

Tuesday offers similar weather with mostly sunny skies & seasonal temps--afternoon highs into the lower 40s with little to no wind. There will be a few afternoon clouds around and those clouds are tied to our next storm that will be sloppy for early Wednesday. That's right, another storm heading this way.

We continue with our stormy pattern and next up is Wednesday. I think it will behave much like the weekend event.....rain & snow scattered across the area. The difference (and it's a big one) is the timing---a commuter storm. Right now, it looks like a mix of rain & snow will break out around 5-6am Wednesday and be with us for much of the day. It does appear that there will be enough snow to shovel & plow but most of that will be confined to the I-495 corridor & beyond. metro Boston will see a coating before the storm becomes mainly a chilly rain storm. More on this mess in a lil bit.

Have a great day!

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.

Thunderous Start to Workweek

Heat and a bit of humidity fed a strong - and sometimes severe - line of thunderstorms today. By the time the dinner hour rolled around (6pm-ish), the storms had consolidated into a line. Everyone got a drink of water and a big drop in temperatures - some falling nearly 20 degrees in minutes!

As we exit our recent soggy pattern we do so with one more weather system capable of producing scattered showers & t-storms. This cool front is a slow mover (aren't we all on Monday mornings?!) up in northern New England right now. This slow moving front will settle into our part of the world very late this afternoon bringing a chance of some scattered t-storms between 4-pm. Until then you have a great day with mostly sunny skies along with temperatures in the low 80s. For some, a bit on the humid side for much of the day.
