Snow is Trending

Posted by Jeremy Reiner

Just another batch of some nuisance snow out there for you this morning as another tiny storm scooted through here overnight. Most towns picked up a coating-1" but sunshine will go to work this morning (after a 2 hour delay--like a school!!) melting that coating as most towns reach the upper 30s by afternoon. Mainly clear skies for tonight and into tomorrow morning. As we step through tomorrow clouds begin to arrive and those clouds are the leading edge of another storm....a bigger storm for Friday-Saturday.

Here's what we know about this Friday-Saturday storm:

*A drawn out storm---beginning as light snow by 8am Friday then becoming steadier & heavier by Friday afternoon and into Friday night. Snow won't taper off until 9-11am Saturday!

*A plowable snow is likely Friday-Saturday (Our *Special* map in the maps section details how much).

*Poor Travel is expected (ground and air) is expected across southern New England Friday afternoon through early Saturday morning.

*Minor-Moderate Coastal Flooding is likely Friday PM / Saturday AM

Here's What We're Still Working on with this storm:

*Storm Track---It's actually two storms that will join forces to become one storm----if they join forces too late (well southeast of New England) then it will be a storm with much less snowfall.

*Until we can pinpoint the storm track then the amount of snow is not locked in and that dreaded rain/snow line is also not known.

New information will be later this morning--this will further our confidence in this forecast--stay tuned!

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!

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. 

Well Deserved

After 8" of rain in the last two weeks, we needed/deserved this one!  What a day with temps just shy of 80 degrees, low humidity, plenty of sunshine and a refreshing breeze.  We'll trade those sunny skies in for mainly clear skies tonight as temperatures fall to near 60 in Boston, but in the upper 40s and lower 50s in the suburbs.
