Pause For Effect
Posted by Jeremy Reiner
Fan of bitter cold and monster snowstorms that bury towns? Uh oh, this isn't your blog or weather pattern. Nope, the Old Man (winter) is taking a break from us for this week and even into early next week. We do get these January thaws just about every year but this one is running a bit early (typically we see a thaw form January 20th-26th where temps will run ~10 degrees above normal).
Today will be the coldest of the bunch as temps reach the mid 30s (normal for this time of year) under a mix of sun & clouds. A morning breeze may contribute to your Case of the Mondays. Clear skies tonight with overnight lows into the 20s.
Tomorrow marks the beginning of March-like temperatures will many towns easily reaching the mid 40s with mostly sunny skies. Wednesday, a cool front moves through the clouds & even a few afternoon rain showers but no arctic air. That front is not from the north pole but rather Seattle and that means temps don't take a hit late in the week. In fact, if anything, our temps hold steady & even climb a few more degrees by late week.
Is this the end of winter?!?!----Nope, not by a long shot. Bitter cold & snow will return....just not anytime soon.

Thunderous Start to Workweek
Posted by Pete Bouchard
Heat and a bit of humidity fed a strong - and sometimes severe - line of thunderstorms today. By the time the dinner hour rolled around (6pm-ish), the storms had consolidated into a line. Everyone got a drink of water and a big drop in temperatures - some falling nearly 20 degrees in minutes!

As we exit our recent soggy pattern we do so with one more weather system capable of producing scattered showers & t-storms. This cool front is a slow mover (aren't we all on Monday mornings?!) up in northern New England right now. This slow moving front will settle into our part of the world very late this afternoon bringing a chance of some scattered t-storms between 4-pm. Until then you have a great day with mostly sunny skies along with temperatures in the low 80s. For some, a bit on the humid side for much of the day.
We'll Take Average

Well, we had a lot of clouds this afternoon, but at least not a lot of rain. Sure a few showers were out there, scattered about, but hopefully they didn't ruin any plans you had with dad. Temps made it into the mid to upper 70s, which is close to the average for this time of year. In fact, the whole 7-day forecast is within 5 degrees of average each and every day. That means lots of upper 70s and lower 80s on the board. Not bad being average this time of year, huh?
Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to all you dads out there, and to my dad as well. So what's on tap for the day? Golf, grilling, just hanging out? Whatever it is, all and all, it's still a pretty good day for dad weather-wise. I wish I could say the Father's Day forecast exactly repeats Saturday, but we do have a few late afternoon showers to track.
