Consistent
Posted by Chris Lambert
In like a lion, out like a lamb. That's the March motto. However, it looks like we'll start off the first several days of the month on the quiet side (lamb-like). In fact, temperatures are very consistent, hovering in the lower 40s each afternoon.
There will be a stubborn area of low pressure in the upper-levels of the atmosphere across New England and it'll be slow to move out of New England. With that said, it's been an area of low pressure that's been losing steam. It'll be enough to keep more clouds than sun, and an occasional rain or snow shower around Friday and Saturday, but many dry hours are also included each day. Sunday looks dry with partly sunny skies.
Bottom line, no major storms through the weekend. Finally! Great ski weather too! Low to mid 30s in Ski Country with an occasional snow shower. Remember, the last two rain storms here have been all snow up there.
Next week, Monday and Tuesday feature a north wind that goes northeast. That'll keep some low to mid level moisture in place, enough for mostly cloudy skies, but mainly rain/snow free skies. Wednesday, northeast winds increase, and a rain or snow shower can't be ruled out. Overall, it'll be a raw and windy day.
The wind on Wednesday is generated by the pressure difference of a high to our northeast and an ocean storm to our south. Right now, that big ocean storm looks to stay out to sea, and our quiet weather should continue into the end of the week.

Although my forecast was busted today, there was one good thing that came out of it.
Stability.
That gray overcast that hung over the eastern half of the Commonwealth provided a stablizing influence to our atmosphere. The cool air blowing in from the ocean kept the temperatures in the upper 50s and low 60s all the way back to Metrowest. While that makes for lousy short-and-t-shirt weather, it is poison to thunderstorms.

Wild & Wacky

Wild temperatures yesterday---from the 80s down into the low 60s in just an hour AND some heavy duty thunderstorms. The reason was a cool front that dropped in from Maine. That front is in western New England this morning and it's a chameleon as it will become a warm front and try to warm things back up during the day.

What a day! Breakneck temperature swings, thunder, tornadoes in Western Mass....and we're still in late May!

More Warmth

You have another warm & humid day with many towns repeating yesterday's weather. That means we start with clouds & fog for a bit before hazy sun gets going. That hazy sunshine will boost temps up into the low 80s by early to mid afternoon across much of the region. At the same time a cool front will begin dropping out of Maine (backdoor front) which will quickly send temps from the 70s/80s down into the 50s/60s by late afternoon & evening. Also, when this front rams into the warmth & humidity it will spark a few showers & thunderstorms during the afternoon.
