On The Move
Posted by Jeremy Reiner
After a solid week of cold here in New England (Boston's longest sub-32 degree stretch since 2005) we can finally talk about some warmer weather...eventually. Today will be the day we move the arctic air out of here and the result will be some weather. Just clouds this morning but as we work into the afternoon, snow will start to fly (2-3pm) and continue up until 8pm. Even though the burst of snow will be brief it will occur during the evening commute. Here's how much snow I'm thinking:
Needless to say roads, sidewalks & driveways will be slick anytime after 4pm right into the overnight hours. For the overnight hours, not much precipitation but there will be some pockets of coastal drizzle & freezing drizzle well inland. Temps hold in the low 30s tonight.
Tuesday is a bleh day with cloudy skies throughout but no rain or snow. Temps will be our warmest in over a week with afternoon highs in the upper 30s. That will feel quite mild after last week. Wednesday will be downright warm---like near record warmth with many tows reaching the upper 50s by afternoon (record high is 63). The hitch is there won't be any sun and as we move from day to night on Wednesday, plan on showers, downpours & even a few rumbles of thunder! That is all due to a cold front that will send us back to reality by Thursday & beyond.
Have a great week!

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.
