Surging Temps

Posted by Pete Bouchard

After the clouds broke, today turned into a real prize-winner! But that wasn't the remarkable part. The temperature range was:

                          High           Low

Wrentham        64               37

Natick                63               29

Wrentham        63               37

Pepperell          62               27

Middleboro       62               35

Auburn              60                38

The days are short, the sun angle is low and yet we manage a 35 degree turnaround in parts of our area? That's something you'd see in the spring, not a month away from the winter solstice.

Nonetheless, the warmer air is here. While not soaring to record levels, tempertures tomorrow will be well into the 60s! Sun is abundant, but so is the haze. Boston makes a run for 67, Worcester around 62. It's the last mild day we'll see for a while, so make it matter.

While Tuesday will still be mild, the fix is in. Cool front fires up the showers, and we'll hover near 60 for the first part of the day. Markedly cooler air follows the remainder of the week, and we might have some issues with clouds along the coast thanks to a chilly, moist northeast wind.

No big storms cooling in the long range.

Big salute to all the veterans out there! Thanks for your service to our country!!

More Warmth

Posted by Jeremy Reiner

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.

Summ-ah!

With the snap of the fingers we were thrown into summer this afternoon. Heat, humidity, A/C and shorts - with a hazy sun to boot. But with the sea breeze knocking back the temperatures (and bringing in a round of downpours this evening), there are changes afoot.

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.
