The Cold Will Hold
Posted by Jeremy Reiner
Cold air is like me....stubborn at times. This is never more true than today (I'm talking cold, not my 'tude) as our temps start the day in the 20s and spend the entire day crawling into the low 30s by 4-5pm. This process often results in clouds, drizzle & even fog---no different this time either so you can bag the sunglasses. As we work into the evening & overnight hours, our temps will hold in the low 30s and slowly start climbing into the upper 30s (low 40s on the south shore/cape islands). Once again, this warming process will encourage clouds & fog to linger for much of the night.
Wednesday is interesting as most towns will see their temperatures reach the mid 50s by afternoon!! Keep in mind it was just last Wednesday that daytime temps were stuck in the teens. I'd like to say the sun will shine & birds will sing but that won't be the case as clouds are with us again and we will have a screaming south wind between 20-30mph. Eventually downpours fall out of those clouds tomorrow evening & night.
Those downpours are tied to a cold front that will blast through here early Thursday morning crushing any hopes of holding onto the 50s for two straight days. High temps on Thursday will occur before lunchtime (40s), then fall into the 30s by afternoon. Dry & seasonably cold weather takes over for Friday & Saturday.
Enjoy your Tuesday!

A Bit Chilly
Posted by Jeremy Reiner
A few frosty mornings are in store as we have seen (and will see) temps dip into the 30s/40s with one last shot of chilly air from Canada. That chilly air arrived late yesterday afternoon on a stiff westerly breeze and that breeze will do its thing again today keeping a cool feel to the air the entire day. That sun will shine brightly at first but during the midday and afternoon, more clouds will arrive furthering the cool theme to the day. Decent day though.
Cooling Off

I hope everyone had a good weekend... especially all you moms. Despite the battle with rain showers at times, the weekend overall turned out ok. After fighting off the morning rain showers today, it was a very comfortable afternoon as temps neared 70 and some sunshine broke out. Not only that, we got rid of the muggy weather thanks to a west wind ushering in drier air.
Happy Mother's Day

Clouds and showers this morning mean it's a good day to let Mom sleep in! When she does get up and is ready to go for brunch or for lunch, keep the umbrella handy. We'll have scattered showers around into the noon hour, before drier weather works in this afternoon. Although the atmosphere dries out, there is just enough instability still that a passing, brief shower can't be rule out. I'd say a chance of a brief shower is 20% this afternoon. We shouldn't have issues at the Sox game aside for a low risk of a passing shower. I'm optimistic we get the game in, with much of the time dry. With partial sunshine returning later today, it's a good bet that temps run close to 70. Not too shabby.
Mom, It's Not My Fault

How many of you moms have heard the line of this blog's title over the years? Yup, and just like your kids, I've used that one myself back in the day. This go around, I can say "It's not my fault" and be correct. Of course, I'm referencing the rain. If it were up to me, Sunday would feature 80 degree weather, low humidity and sunny skies. Unfortunately, it's not up to me and I have to deliver the message of showers around on Sunday for the first half of the day.
