Not A Lot of Complaints
Posted by Pete Bouchard
While the pattern is pretty cold, not a lot of folks are complaining about it. Sun has been out, the weather's been dry, and for November, this isn't half bad.
Don't see any reason to amend the headlines either. Gigantic high pressure system will park itself across Northern New England over the next few days, giving us some cold mornings and bright afternoons.
There is one caveat to the forecast however. The onshore winds that this high will produce eventually will foster some cloudiness. I'm seeing a sharp line between the sun and clouds by Tue-Wed of next week. Most of them should stay off Nantucket, but there might be enough of a push to get them back on Cape Cod. These are the finer points of the forecast and the items that we'll have to tackle after the weekend.
In the meantime, enjoy the ride.

Summer officially starts Friday at 1:04 A.M., and Mother Nature's sending in summer weather for us just in time. Mid to late June averages highs near 80 degrees, and we'll be there temperature-wise over the next few days. Mostly dry too!
That's A Wrap--I Think

I hope I'm not jinxing us with this statement.."The recent wet pattern is over....onto sunshine & a more summer- like pattern.." The last time someone from 7 weather called a pattern change too soon we got a blizzard and 3 subsequent nor'easters (looking at you Pete!!--LOL). We don't have to worry about any blizzards or nor'easters but one never knows in the new world order.

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.
