An intense mid-level vort max along with a surface coldfront is providing lift for some briefly intense showers this evening.
When I saw the sun out this morning, I got a little ambitious and brought the twins to the playground.
It's time to get your garden and lawn ready for another growing season.
That's the best way to sum up the past few months and the next few days.
It's not unheard of to get snow this late in the season...in fact one of the largest snowstorms to ever hit Southern New England fell over April Fool's Day back in 1997.
Cold, raw weather will temporarily be replaced by sunshine tomorrow as onshore winds shift into the NW and draw down much drier air.
We saw something we hadn't seen in a while...rain...and even though it came down heavily for a few minutes it didn't amount to much.
Temps this morning dropped into the 20s...the coldest it's been in three weeks!
Hard to believe that last week we were smashing record high temps and this week we are talking about hard freezes and snowflakes!
Today, highs once again were 20+ degrees above normal and even though records didn't fall, the mid 70s felt amazing.
Very simply the record in Boston today was crushed...it was 72 set back in 1948...it's now 83!
Our Summer-like stretch of weather in the month of March will last one more day...and that day will be the hottest of them all.
The mild winter and recent record high temperatures has allergy sufferers bracing for what could be a very tough and very long season.
So long Winter, I'm actually a little sad to see you go following one of the warmest Winters on record.
Can you believe it's actually still Winter...the vernal equinox arrives just after midnight tonight and Spring arrives, but the first few days will feel more like Summer.
We have essentially spent the last three days in the clouds, we all could really use a little sunshine.
We actually had a day with below normal temps and boy did it feel cold...the high was a very raw 42.
The backdoor front has progressed through the area and has knocked temps from around 60 degrees to around 40 degrees in just a few short hours.
I went away for a few days and what do you know, I miss some of best weather of the year.
If you haven't caught it yet you certainly will over the next couple of days...after a cold couple of days, temps are about to soar!
38 was the high today...that makes 3 out of the first 5 days of this month with below normal highs...a trend that we are not used to.
With the fresh snow on the ground acting like a refrigerant surface temps are running cold right now and many are hovering below freezing.
We are going on 33 hours with this storm and Boston barely has anything to show for it while most towns inland have received several sloppy inches of snow and slush.
This three part storm has begun and we are almost through the first stage.
The countdown to our first measurable snowfall in Boston in over a month is now on.
