Rolling Along

Meh. That's today's weather message--a day that is just kind of...there. Don't get me wrong, it's a decent winter day staring you in the face with partly sunny skies and seasonal temps--low 40s. More melting. those clouds that you see are tied to another storm that is trying its best to put frowns on our faces. It won't succeed.
The reason being is for high pressure here in New England that will be slow to budge and that will force the storm to find another way---a path much farther south than the Blizzard took. Yay. With that said, some patchy light snow/flurries will arrive around 11pm tonight along 7 especially south of the MA Pike & linger for the rest of the night. A coating at most in the metro to perhaps as much as 2" out on Cape Cod (check out the *special* map in our maps section). Couple of slick spots likely on the South Shore late tonight & early tomorrow morning.
After 8am tomorrow, skies clear from this "storm" and we see another decent winter day with afternoon temps in the low 40s. One might even say....just lovely tomorrow. Friday will be a fun day as we see temps go to work and reach the upper 40s by afternoon with a mix of sun & clouds. The weekend is looking dry at this time (no storm) and a cold blast heading in with Saturday temps in the upper 30s but high temps on Sunday only in the upper 20s!

Can Only Go Up From Here

Rain and drizzle continues tonight as temperatures drop into the mid 30s to 40 degrees. Any burst of heavier precip drags down colder air, and elevations above 1000 feet in northern Worcester County or southwester NH see wet snow mixing in overnight. No shovels or plows needed for us, but it is a sure sign how cold the atmosphere is for late May. As of this writing, Mt. Mansfield in VT has picked up 7.5" of snow and Whiteface Mtn. in NY has picked up 18"!
This Is How It Starts? Really?

So it's the unofficial start of summer this weekend and officially, the average high this time of year hits 70 degrees. So you'd think we have a good shot at BBQ weather right? Not much of a chance today with highs reaching near 50 this morning, only to fall back into the low to mid 40s this afternoon as a cold rain settles in.

Rain, rain, rain...
...but for many today was a day of hurry up and wait. Sure there were showers, but not every minute was washed out. With the events unfolding tonight, that's about to change.
Come On Ride The Train

Heavy rain is on the move! All afternoon long it was stalled over Western Massachusetts and Connecticut. Heavy pulses of rain traveled over the same towns and cities - a process meteorologists call "training" - resulting in flash flooding in some counties to our west.
