Hurry Up and Wait

Posted by Pete Bouchard

Snow has been flying most of the early morning out through Worcester county...although you'd be hard pressed to find big accumulations:

Lunenburg 3.5"

Fitchburg 3.0"

Worcester 2.0"

Meantime, the rain continues through Lawrence, down into the North Shore throughout Greater Boston and down to the South Shore. The changeover line is just outside of Framingham and Bedford, and it won't take much for it to come down into the city later this morning and early afternoon.

That said, it's too little too late for serious accumulation along the coast.

Why so little? We're fighting the lingering overnight warmth and temps will be a marginal 34-35 through the afternoon. In addition, there's not a whole lot of precipitation left in the storm. From here on out, the focus will be on a growing area of snow across the Seacoast of NH and Southern Maine. There, the snow will intensify, whereas the surrounding areas of northeast Mass and southern NH will be on the periphery.

Slow wrap to the snow this afternoon and evening. It's not in a hurry to leave...

...but I can't wait for this storm to go.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

More Warmth

Posted by Jeremy Reiner

You have another warm & humid day with many towns repeating yesterday's weather. That means we start with clouds & fog for a bit before hazy sun gets going. That hazy sunshine will boost temps up into the low 80s by early to mid afternoon across much of the region. At the same time a cool front will begin dropping out of Maine (backdoor front) which will quickly send temps from the 70s/80s down into the 50s/60s by late afternoon & evening. Also, when this front rams into the warmth & humidity it will spark a few showers & thunderstorms during the afternoon.

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.

Feet First

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.
