So Long Summer...
How nice was that...82, 87 and 85 degrees...I'm still in a weekend weather coma. It really doesn't and may not again in our lifetimes get any better than that.

How nice was that...82, 87 and 85 degrees...I'm still in a weekend weather coma. It really doesn't and may not again in our lifetimes get any better than that.
Tonight will be another cold one across the Commonwealth and with frost expected across the countryside the National Weather Service has issued a Frost Advisory for all locations excluding Boston and the beaches of the South Shore and coastal SE Mass.
Summer is going to take one final run at New England and the timing couldn't be better.
A few brief showers passed through with the leading edge of a chilly October airmass this afternoon.
Looking for that perfect jack-o-lantern is a great way to spend a beautiful fall day!
Significant rain led to significant flooding this morning on the North Shore...4-6 inches fell in a very localized spot around Swampscott, Peabody and Salem among other communities.
Environmentalists are concerned with the number of cups being tossed in the trash. A lot of plastic is not being recycled.
We are now going on week three of talking about this upper level storm system and it's associated unsettled weather...the end can't come soon enough!
The current session of Lights Out will run until the end of October, which is the end of the fall migration season.
We are now heading into the weekend after completing one of the better days of the month but unfortunately we are going to be starting the new month on an unsettled note.
Well that was a pretty wild evening with torrential rain from showers and thunderstorms many spots picked up over a half an inch of rain in a matter of minutes
It feels like we are on borrowed time...after all we have been calling for showers to get to us for over a week now and for the most part we haven't seen any.
As advertised, the atmosphere was less hot today with highs in the lower 70s near the coast and close to 80 inland.
While many folks begin to wrap up their gardening in the fall, there is still a very important piece of gardening to be done before the ground freezes: planting bulbs.
Summer may have officially ended last Friday but the last few days have been anything but Fall-like. Highs the last three days were 80, 78 and 76 for Boston and it was even warmer for towns away from the coast.
Day one of the rainy pattern is in the books...now we just have to get through about seven more!
We just finished up a little rain...not much, mostly .1 to .2 inches. Now, drier air is working in and clearing has commenced. This will lead to some sunshine tomorrow and perhaps the last day with any meaningful sunshine for quite some time.
A line of showers is working in from the West and should pass through tomorrow afternoon with a period of generally lighter rain.
This happens to be the last weekend of the Summer of 2011 but Autumn will be starting a bit prematurely.
Another day with a high in the 80s...83 in fact before the potent front swept through with drenching thunderstorms.
Another mid-summer-like day just wrapped up here in Southern New England...highs reached the mid 80s once again and with much cooler air on our doorstep, it's quite possible this was the warmest day until next year! Normally saying that would make me very depressed but I'm very excited for some invigorating air.
With a good two-and-a-half months left in the growing season there is still time to make your garden grow.
After spending days in the rain and clouds Summer made a nice recovery today with a high of 81 degrees...6 degrees above what we normally see.
The high today was 63 degrees...ouch...normally it's 75. In Boston, despite the hours of wet weather, we only measured a quarter of an inch.
