The early morning rain may have had you down for a bit, but the sunshine has returned in full and temps are responding to the sunshine and light NW winds. Highs will be climbing to near 80-85 for most locations this afternoon...quite a bit different than the mid 90's! Temps will remain in the 70's at the beaches, where there are a few lingering clouds. Watch out for pop up scattered T'storms this afternoon!
If you don't like the heat, there is good news, some relief is on the way.
This could be our first 100 degree day in June in 60 years!
Summer officially begins on Wednesday at 7:09 p.m., and will likely coincide with our first 90-degree day of the year.
A deck of midlevel marine stratus clouds is breaking apart and giving way to some increasing sun as skies will become partly sunny for most. After being locked in the clouds Saturday, a much improved day at the coast with more sun but still a cool flow in off the water keeping temps in the lwr-mid 60's. The cool marine air has settled inland and will be slow to budge so this will also help to keep most of Eastern MA in the 60's to near 70 today, while further inland, in the N & W, temps will be climbing into the 70's away from the cool onshore wind.
Clouds, and breezy ENE winds will linger at the coast today, keeping it chilly in the Lwr 60's. Tough for for those at the beach. Meanwhile, just a few miles inland, plenty of sunshine with highs 70-75.
The clouds extend across all of eastern MA into NH. Meanwhile there is bright sunshine from Worcester west. After a cloudy morning, as the low begins to pull away, I expect some of the drier weather from the west to begin to work eastward eroding the cloud deck with drying NW winds and some increasing afternoon sun. Clouds will likely hold all day across NH, NE MA and right at the eastern Beaches. Where there is sunshine temps will be climbing into the lwr-mid 70's..nearing 80- in Hartford, CT. Where there are clouds...the temps will remain in the 60's
Batches of showers will continue to be directed up into eastern MA for the rest of the day. With cool onshore SE winds...expect highs to remain in the lwr 60's with a bit warmer temps inland in the mid 60's where it will be drier this afternoon in the mid 60's nearing 70 in spots.
One year ago, a series of tornadoes swept through Central and Western Massachusetts killing three and causing hundreds of millions of dollars in damage.
Gorgeous day in progress with sunshine, lower humidity and a gentle onshore wind. Highs will be climbing into the upper 70's and Lwr 80's inland. Beaches will be cooler with temps in the upper 60's and lwr 70's
Another stellar day with bright sunshine, high clouds and temps quickly warming through the day. Highs will top out in the lwr-mid 80's making for a warmer summery feel this afternoon inland.
With high pressure sitting over us today, temps will climb into the 70's and lwr 80's inland. Light east winds will keep temps in the 60's at the immediate beaches. The sea breeze will not penetrate more than a mile or two inland...so once away from the water...expect a warmer day.
Sunshine and warmth will be increasing midday into this afternoon with highs climbing into the upper 70's and Lwr 80's. The peak of the heat will be across Metro west, with a cooler onshore wind for south facing coast lines. A lighter wind today will make it feel warmer and it will be... by a degree or two.
After a crisp and cool start around sunrise...temps have quickly pushed into the 60's and will climb right into the 70's nearing 80 in many areas this afternoon. Bright sunshine is making for a high UV index today so bring your sun protection if you heading to the beach.
The few moments of sunshine this morning have given way to building black bottom cumulus and threat for a few afternoon showers. I think we will be able to salvage part of the day, in between the breaks of clouds there will be some partial sunshine to enjoy. But with cooler air aloft, and low level moisture currently in place, alot of these clouds are here to stay and may actually start to build with the heating of the day to deposit a few afternoon showers or even a thunderstorm inland. High temps will be climbing into the lwr-mid 60's inland this afternoon, but cooler winds off the water with clouds will make it awfully cool at the coast keeping temps in the 50's.
That dry air will begin to erode some of the low cloud cover this afternoon...with breaks of sun forming inland. The front will stall as it approaches SE MA...so clouds will remain pretty locked in at the coast for much of the day. With light onshore winds....expect temps to remain in the 50's with Lwr-mid 60's farther inland away from the cooler water temps.
Highs are climbing into the upper 50's and Lwr 60's this afternoon with breezy NW winds providing a bit of a chill to the air. Winds could gust to 20-30 this afternoon. High pressure will crest over New England tonight with clear skies and diminishing wind. Tonight will feature the best conditions for radiational cooling and the potential for some patchy frost early Monday Morning.
Temps are quickly responding to sunshine as highs will climb into the mid-uppr 50's this afternoon with lighter WNW winds with gusts to 20mph.
The lawns are parched and this rain will go a long way to reducing all the brushfires, pollen and low river levels. Flood watches are up for tonight through tomorrow morning for a widespread 2-3" with locally heavier rain possible. The Cape & island will see less rain running about .5-1.5" total by Monday afternoon.
Partly sunny skies will eventually emerge by midday and afternoon. Clouds will hold tight along the south coast with onshore southerly wind, with brighter skies inland. Highs will be climbing into the Lwr-mid 70's today as we will be warming ahead of an approaching cold front. SNH and the Merrimack valley will again be the warm spot climbing into the upper 70's. The Cape and islands with mostly cloudy skies will be cooler in the lwr 60's. A dry day for all and the pick of the weekend.
What a day this is going to be. After a week of incredible weather, this one could end up being on of the best. Sunshine with some increasing high clouds in the afternoon with southerly winds gusting to 20+ in the afternoon. Highs will be running well above normal again with highs climbing to near 80 degrees in SNH, the Merrimack Valley and Northern Worcester county. The rest of us will see highs in the mid-upper 70's with a slight sea breeze developing right at the coast this afternoon which will keep it cooler on the south shore beaches and the Cape in the 60's. Fantastic Friday! Is there anything better?
Temps are expected to surge this afternoon with sunny skies with highs climbing into the 80's nearing 90.
Let the warm up begin! A warm front lies south of New England the morning. Clouds are breaking with increasing sunshine for the rest of the morning into the early afternoon. A light SW wind will help allow temps to climb into the 70's to near 80 inland, with a cooler breeze to be found at our south facing coastlines. The warm front will begin to push through late today and tonight. Clouds will be spilling back into New England late today and tonight. The remnants of the tornado outbreak in the Plains is spilling over the ridge and will be directed into the region tonight along the warm front. The best chance of a few showers will be between 6PM and midnight tonight.
This should be considered a dangerous situation for those running on Monday and any and all precautions should be taken to avoid dehydration and heat stroke.
