Steady As She Goes

Posted by Pete Bouchard

Weather pattern has turned as dull as the November landscape (and you'll get no complaints from me). As high pressure stagnates across the northeast, what you see is what you get....with a few cloudy exceptions. 

We had some low clouds drifting across the Cape/Islands this afternoon, and I think we'll be playing a few games of cat and mouse with them in the days to come. Tomorrow, they may start the trek up from the Cape giving us a partly sunny sky from time to time. And here's the conundrum for the coming 4-5 days: how much cloudiness will get in front of the sun? I'd like to play the stoic meteorologist and say definitively where they start/stop, but we fly by the seat of our pants on these forecasts: the clouds are fickle and fussy. One day they're on the Cape, the next they're in Metrowest.

So we'll take it day by day...just like John Rambo.

Long range is looking quiet. Plans for Turkey Day? Traveling out of town before/after the holiday. Just want to work off your pumpkin pie? It's all good. A big ocean storm will spin off North Carolina far south and east (for a change), just kicking up the surf.

Be well.

Pulling The Fade

Posted by Chris Lambert

Our fun in the sun ends this afternoon as morning sunshine fades behind thickening clouds.  As those clouds increase, a few showers break out this afternoon from west to east, with the highest chance for rain late afternoon and this evening.  Most of the showers are light, especially the early afternoon ones, but a heavier shower or two is possible near day's end and early this evening.  Highs reach the mid to upper 60s around noon, then fall back to near 60 mid to late afternoon thanks to scattered showers.  These showers are brought to us by a warm front.

Back and Forth

Quite a few clouds in the sky at times this afternoon, but the atmosphere lacked ample moisture to produce showers, so we made out just fine with temps near 70.  Even the coast made it well into the 60s before the onshore wind knocked temps back.

Pretty Good Weekend Overall

Sure, it's a cool start with many of the suburbs down into the upper 30s and lower 40s, but we'll warm up quickly through the day as that sun helps us out.

Strong Finish

An overall cooler day, but also a great end to the workweek as highs neared 70, low humidity continued and plenty of sunshine dominated the skies.  Now all we need is this to continue through the weekend right?
