Recovery Fail
Posted by Chris Lambert
Cold air settles into New England today as high temps struggle to get out of the 20s. We've even had snow this morning across the Cape, with many towns picking up 1-3", although closer to 4" on Nantucket. With the exception of the outer Cape experiencing ocean effect snow showers through the rest of this morning, most of us see returning sun. That sun doesn't help us out too much in the temp department as highs struggle to clear the 20s.
We'll warm up for the weekend, but the warm-up is brief as temps start crashing back down Sunday night. If you're heading to Gillette, there will be quite a spread of temperatures throughout the day. Near 40 in the early afternoon, near 30 at kickoff and in the 20s by the end of the game. Factor in the breeze, and wind chill factors head to the teens.
That's just the tip of the iceberg as we go freezer cold by mid-week. Temps start near zero Wednesday morning, and stay in the teens during the afternoon. The cold has some staying power next week, lasting at least Monday-Thursday... making this brief weekend recovery temperature-wise see like a failed attempt at a warmer pattern. We'll take the nicer weather on the weekend though!
Go Pats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
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.

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.

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.
