Cool Weekend

Posted by Pete Bouchard

Let's see...we saw some fuzzy sun (hidden behind lots of high clouds), some chilly temps, light breezes, and dry weather.

Yep, that sounds about right for this pattern. And there's more in store in the WEEK ahead.

Clouds will be leaving us relatively soon, however. Because of that (clouds typically act as a "blanket" and keep the temperatures from falling quickly), temperatures will crumble after midnight. I expect lows to be in the low/mid 20s in some suburbs by morning.

Sun goes to work full-force tomorrow to bring us to the brink of 50 (oh boy). For what it's worth, our normal high is 52, so we're not far off. The weekend will see more sun and blue sky with light breeze. This is very unusual for the month of November. It's typically the cloudiest AND (at 3.98") the wettest month of the year!

We're sitting pretty for the next 7-10 days. No storms will threaten for Thanksgiving or the holiday weekend. The only major change I see is the possibility of a shot of cold air at the finish of Thanksgiving weekend. Could be enough to plunge us into the 30s.

Stay tuned.

Have a good weekend.

Take the Good, Take the Bad

Rain, rain, rain...

...but for many today was a day of hurry up and wait. Sure there were showers, but not every minute was washed out. With the events unfolding tonight, that's about to change.

So....what would you like to hear first? The good news? Bad news? Let's start with the good news....

Come On Ride The Train

Heavy rain is on the move! All afternoon long it was stalled over Western Massachusetts and Connecticut. Heavy pulses of rain traveled over the same towns and cities - a process meteorologists call "training" - resulting in flash flooding in some counties to our west.

Unsettling

Another day where we have cool, ocean air battling warmer land air leading to a clash of air. That means clouds, drizzle, fog, humidity (frizzy hair) for much of the day. It's not a washout though. The highest chance of rain is this morning--until 9:30am and then later this afternoon (after 3pm). In between, you will see a lot of clouds but also some sunshine at times. Even limited sun will be able to shove temps well into the 70s. This warm & humid air is what will lead to another round of showers & t-storms later today. Some of the storms will be intense. Like the past two days the strongest storms will be in western New England. Only isolated showers/ thunderstorms are expected along the coastline later today. Sox game will have the risk of some showers but they should be able to play that game. Welcome back Tito!
