That Silly Groundhog

Posted by Pete Bouchard

Well, it's in the books. Officially 24.9" in Boston with the Blizzard of 2013. While some are left to wonder 'where do I start cleaning up?' we draw comparisons.

This storm ranks as the 5th greatest snowfall in Boston's history behind the mighty April Fools' Day Blizzard of 1997:

Did it snap you back into winter mode? If it didn't, the cold tonight certainly will. Low temperatures will tumble into the single digits - some just below zero - and low teens! Cold start tomorrow, but the 'warmth' of the (almost) February sun will shine through. Highs should manage to crack freezing and do some melting.

But where will the melted snow go? Back into the snowpack at night to refreeze. Watch your step Monday morning. And don't forget, that there are always several post-storm mornings to adjust to navigating snowbanks and step over new obstacles on the sidewalks.

Together we can...

...drive on the roads again.

Storms, Heat, Sea Breezes

What a day! Breakneck temperature swings, thunder, tornadoes in Western Mass....and we're still in late May!

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.

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. 

Pulling The Fade

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.
