8:59AM

DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 7-11)
A frontal boundary will sit just southeast of the region this weekend, drifting slowly to the southeast with time. Some leftover moisture riding up behind the nearly stationary front today will produce some light precipitation in parts of the region through late morning. The southeastward drift of this front will result in a wave of low pressure moving along it to pass far enough south of the region to keep just about its entire precipitation shield offshore as it goes by, clipping only Nantucket and possibly outer Cape Cod with some light rain/snow early Sunday. A trough of low pressure will move through Sunday evening and may produce a snow shower in a few locations. A sliver of high pressure will bring fair weather Monday before the next threat of unsettled weather Tuesday. However, with this system we’ll avoid a larger storm resulting because 2 main pieces of energy will not phase – the southern system passing harmlessly out to see while a weaker northern disturbance brings patchy light precipitation, followed by a push of drier air by Wednesday. Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly cloudy through more sun possible north and west of Boston later in the day. Areas of very light to light rain/snow until late morning. Highs 41-48. Wind W up to 10 MPH.
TONIGHT: Partly to mostly cloudy. Lows 30-37. Wind NW up to 10 MPH.
SUNDAY: Mostly to partly cloudy. Chance of snow/mix/rain Nantucket and possibly outer Cape Cod in the morning. Highs 38-45. Wind N 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy with a passing snow shower possible evening. Clearing overnight. Lows 25-33. Wind N 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
MONDAY: Sunny. Highs 42-49. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered areas of light rain/mix/snow possible. Lows in the 30s. Highs in the 40s.
WEDNESDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 30s. Highs from the middle 40s to lower 50s.

DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 12-16)
This period of time is fairly difficult to figure out weather-wise not only given that spring has so many influencing factors in place with a cold Canada, a chilly ocean, and a building warm air mass not all that far to the south of New England. In addition, the boundary of that Canadian cold and southern US warmth will never be all that far away. My best guess for now is for a quick push of warmer air and possibly a rain shower on April 12 on the milder side of the boundary, then a shot of cooler air and a breezy but dry day on April 13. High pressure should bring fair weather April 14 but with it centered in eastern Canada and not off the US East Coast that is a recipe for a chilly coastline and milder air in the interior, but not the potentially very warm shot of air that once looked possible. Sometime during the period of April 15-16 a trough will move through from the west but it may be rapidly weakening as it does so, pushing just a frontal boundary through with a passing brief period of precipitation but temperature averaging near to slightly below normal. Plenty of time to fine-tune this period of time especially as April 16 is Patriots Day / Marathon Monday.

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 17-21)
The current indications are more strongly for a continuation of passing systems with a couple periods of unsettled weather, and temperatures averaging near to mostly below normal through the middle of the month.

7:38AM

DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 6-10)
A weak storm system heads into the region today and its center of low pressure will track down the St. Lawrence Valley this evening. The time-of-arrival will allow the atmosphere to warm enough so snow will be confined mostly to the higher elevations of north central MA and southwestern NH where minor accumulation of up to 2 inches on unpaved surfaces may occur, with rain/snow mix elsewhere Boston north and west with no accumulation, and just rain to the south. The cold front trailing from this system will be slow to get offshore but not close enough for anything more than a touch of rain/mix southeastern areas early Saturday, and a wave of low pressure moving along it will stay far enough offshore to keep the region dry Sunday. This has been the system of concern being watched for several days. But we’re not quite done with the active pattern yet and another low pressure system is likely to bring rain/mix/snow to the region by Tuesday. Forecast details…
TODAY: Increasing clouds this morning. Cloudy with snow/mix northwest, mix/rain southeast this afternoon. Highs 35-42. Wind light S to SW.
TONIGHT: Cloudy. Chance of rain, mix far northwest, early. Patchy fog. Temperatures steady 35-42. Wind light SW.
SATURDAY: Cloudy morning with a bit of light rain/mix possible mainly southeastern areas. Becoming partly cloudy by late in the day. Highs 43-49. Wind light SW to W.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 28-35. Wind light W to NW.
SUNDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 40-47. Wind N up to 10 MPH.
MONDAY: Partly sunny. Lows from the upper 20s to lower 30s. Highs from the upper 30s to middle 40s.
TUESDAY: Cloudy. Rain/mix/snow likely. Lows from the lower to middle 30s. Highs from the middle 30s to lower 40s.

DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 11-15)
An overall drier stretch of weather is expected but the jury’s out on temperatures. A significant warm-up is possible April 13-15 but we’ll have to watch a frontal boundary to the north, typical of spring, that could make it much cooler, and the speed of a front from the west later in the period that would bring a cooler airmass from Canada via the Great Lakes.

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 16-20)
Fairly progressive but slightly more active pattern is possible during this time.

7:07AM

DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 5-9)
Bright and blustery today as the rush of chilly air continues in from Canada via the Great Lakes. At least the sun will be unlimited for the Red Sox home opener at Fenway Park. Those in the sun and sheltered from the wind will find it rather pleasant, but if you are in a part of the park with shade and exposed to the wind, you’ll feel rather chilled. Wind will also have an impact on fly balls as it crosses the field from the third base side to the first base side. Our fast-flowing weather pattern will continue and this will bring 2 precipitation threats, one on Friday as a small low pressure area moves through from west to east, and on Saturday a low pressure ripples up the front trailing from the first low. With some cold air in place, there is the opportunity for some snow for portions of the region with both events, though neither will be significant and the second one may miss entirely. Dry weather is expected for Sunday and Monday.
TODAY: Sunny. Highs 42-48. Wind W 15-25 MPH gusting 30-45 MPH.
TONIGHT: Increasing clouds. Lows 25-32. Wind NW 5-15 MPH, diminishing.
FRIDAY: Cloudy with a period of precipitation from mid morning to late afternoon, snow north and west of Boston, rain southeastern MA and southern RI, and mix in between. Minor accumulation of a coating to 1 inch on unpaved surfaces mainly north and west of Boston. Highs 35-42. Wind light variable.
SATURDAY: Cloudy. A period of snow/mix possible, favoring southern areas. Lows from the upper 20s to lower 30s. Highs from the upper 30s to lower 40s.
SUNDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows from the lower to middle 30s. Highs from the lower to middle 40s.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the lower to middle 30s. Highs from the middle to upper 40s.

DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 10-14)
A storm is possible on April 10 possibly to early April 11 with rain/mix/snow. Fair weather follows and there is the possibility of a significant warm-up away from ocean-influenced coastal areas later in the period.

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 15-19)
A quick cool-down may come to start the period followed by a low pressure system bringing some unsettled weather into mid period before drier weather returns.

7:22AM

DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 4-8)
A brief push of warm air followed by a strong cold front brings a rain showery day today with gusty winds, and drier/colder air with strong winds tonight. A cool gusty wind under bright sun Thursday. Fast-moving pattern brings the next low pressure into the region Friday with cold enough air for a period of snow, ending as rain. Drier air attempts to move in this weekend but another wave of low pressure threatens the region with snow/mix late Saturday to early Sunday. Forecast details…
TODAY: Mainly cloudy. Areas of fog, some dense, during the morning. Scattered rain showers and thunderstorms, a few of which will produce downpours. Highs 48-56 South Coast, 57-64 elsewhere. Wind light variable early, then SW increasing to 10-20 MPH but gusts 25-35 MPH.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Isolated rain showers early. Lows 28-35. Wind W 15-30 MPH with gusts 45-55 MPH.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 42-48. Wind WNW 15-25 MPH with higher gusts.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Increasing clouds. Lows 25-32. Wind NW 5-15 MPH, diminishing.
FRIDAY: Cloudy with snow of a coating to 2 inches, possibly up to 3 inches higher elevations north central MA and southwestern NH, mainly on unpaved surfaces, changing to rain before tapering off. Highs 35-42. Wind light variable.
SATURDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of mix/snow at night. Lows from the upper 20s to lower 30s. Highs from the upper 30s to lower 40s.
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of mix/snow early. Lows from the lower to middle 30s. Highs in the 40s.

DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 9-13)
Active pattern continues with a brief break April 9 then another storm threat, rain favored over mix/snow, April 10-11. The end of the period may see a warm-up but this is always an iffy proposition in southeastern New England at this time of year. Will continue to monitor.

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 14-18)
Brief warm-up possible to start the period then cooling back down to more seasonable levels. Will watch the risk for a wet weather event during the second half of the period.

6:01AM

DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 3-7)
Warm front approaches today but may struggle to move through this evening as little waves of low pressure form on it. This front will cause wet weather in the form of rain, though it may start as some sleet interior areas. The warm air finally wins out for a few hours Wednesday but a cold front charging eastward will bring a band of showers and a slight chance of thunderstorms eastward across the region during the afternoon, returning cold air to the region after it passes Wednesday night and Thursday, which will be a bright but blustery day for the Red Sox home opener at Fenway Park. The next system comes along quickly on Friday with a period of mix/rain during the day and a surge of cold air producing a risk of snow showers at night. At the moment we should be between systems Saturday with some clouds and a chill.
TODAY: Thickening overcast. Areas of rain arriving, may start as brief snow and/or sleet especially interior areas. Highs 38-45 occurring late day. Wind light SE.
TONIGHT: Cloudy. Areas of fog. Rain likely in the evening. Chance of drizzle overnight. Temperatures steady 38-45. Wind light E.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Areas of fog/drizzle early. Rain showers and a risk of a thunderstorm west to east afternoon. Highs 48-55 South Coast, 56-63 elsewhere. Wind light variable early, then SW increasing to 10-20 MPH except 20-30 MPH Cape Cod with higher gusts, shifting to W from west to east last day and evening.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 43-49. Wind WNW 15-25 MPH with higher gusts.
FRIDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of light rain/mix day. Chance of rain/snow showers evening. Breezy. Lows in the 30s. Highs in the 40s.
SATURDAY: Variably cloudy. Lows in the 30s. Highs in the 40s.

DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 8-12)
Wave of low pressure may produce snow/mix April 8 and a second wave may produce rain/mix April 10. Dry weather later in the period. Temperatures continue to run below normal.

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 13-17)
A shift of upper level features should put high pressure offshore and allow a warm up, possibly significant, at least for the first half of the period before it cools down later in the period.

7:08AM

DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 2-6)
A small and fast-moving low pressure area passing south of the region brings an insignificant snowfall to the region through midday today. A warm front approaches Tuesday with some precipitation returning, mainly rain though some pellets of ice are also possible. Then, a surge of warm air arrives Tuesday night into Wednesday before a strong cold front sweeps eastward with showers/thunderstorms later Wednesday, followed by a return to dry but colder weather for Thursday. The fast-flow pattern continues and this drives the next low pressure into the region Friday with more unsettled weather. Forecast details…
TODAY: Overcast with snow accumulating a coating to 2 inches all areas and locally up to 3 inches south of the Mass Pike during the morning, however accumulation will not really take place on most roadways and some walkways. Clearing during the afternoon. Highs 35-42. Wind light variable.
TONIGHT: Increasing clouds. Lows 25-32. Wind light variable.
TUESDAY: Thickening overcast. Areas of rain arriving, may start as brief snow and/or sleet especially interior areas. Highs 38-45 occurring late day. Wind light SE.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Mainly cloudy. Patchy fog. Chance of rain early. Temperature rising into the 50s. Wind S to SW 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy with patchy fog early. Partly sunny midday. Mostly cloudy with rain showers and possible thunderstorms later. Highs 48-55 immediate South Coast, 55-63 just inland from the South Coast, 63-70 elsewhere. Wind SW 10-20 MPH.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Windy. Lows in the 30s. Highs in the 40s.
FRIDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of light rain/mix day. Chance of rain/snow showers evening. Lows in the 30s. Highs in the 40s.

DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 7-11)
Watch the April 7-8 weekend for additional unsettled weather that may include snow for parts of the region. Another system may follow this around April 10 with more unsettled weather. Temperatures below normal.

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 12-16)
Risk of wet weather early in the period followed by a drying trend with moderating temperatures, possibly a brief significant warm up at mid period before cooling somewhat later in the period.

10:27AM

Happy Easter to those celebrating today!

DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 1-5)
The first 5 days of April will take us on a wild weather ride of changing conditions. No fooling. It starts today with a gusty breeze and mild air at first, then a cool-down, as a cold front has moved through. Cold air arrives tonight and sets the stage for a minor snow event Monday as a wave of low pressure passes just south of New England. This will be an accumulating snow for much of the region, but the accumulation will not really have an impact on any main roadways. Once that moves away, it’s dry and cold late Monday through early Tuesday, then a strong warm front approaches with rain, which may start as snow/sleet in some areas depending on how quickly it arrives. Many warm fronts struggle to get through here in the spring, and you’d think that would be the case this time, but it won’t be. We’ll have a push of very warm air for part of Wednesday, before a strong cold front charges in with showers and even possible thunderstorms, then returns cold air, but dry conditions to the region just in time for the Red Sox home opener on Thursday afternoon. If you are going to this game, dress for a blustery, chilly day. If you are lucky enough to be in the sun, be thankful. The shade will be quite chilly that day. If this were July, you’d be hoping for the opposite. Forecast details…
TODAY: Increasing sun. Highs 53-59. Wind W 10-20 MPH, gusting to 30 MPH.
TONIGHT: Increasing clouds. Lows 25-32. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY: Overcast with snow accumulating a coating to 2 inches all areas and locally 2-4 inches south of the Mass Pike during the morning, however accumulation will not really take place on most roadways and some walkways. Clearing during the afternoon. Highs 35-42. Wind light variable.
MONDAY NIGHT: Increasing clouds. Lows 25-32. Wind light variable.
TUESDAY: Thickening overcast. Rain arriving, may start as brief snow and/or sleet especially interior areas. Highs 38-45 occurring late day. Wind light SE.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy with patchy fog early. Partly sunny midday. Mostly cloudy with rain showers and possible thunderstorms later. Pre-dawn temperatures rise into the 50s. Highs from the upper 50s to lower 60s south-facing shores, middle 60s to lower 70s elsewhere.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Windy. Lows in the 30s. Highs in the 40s.

DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 6-10)
Uncertain how it plays out but have to watch this entire period for potential unsettled weather, which may include snow for parts of the region. Temperatures generally below normal.

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 11-15)
This period should feature somewhat drier weather overall but cannot rule out a passing system with wet weather at some point. Temperatures may moderate especially late in the period, however this is a low confidence forecast.

8:29AM

DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 31-APRIL 4)
You may remember the forecast several days ago started talking about an ending to the blocking pattern and a fast-flow pattern taking its place. This has occurred and will continue during the next 5 days, bringing rapid changes in weather. This will include a cold front that brings a few rain showers early Sunday, a wave of low pressure passing south of the region that brings a risk of some snow/mix for a portion of Monday, a warm front bringing a period of rain that may start as snow and/or sleet Tuesday, a potential surge of very warm air between late Tuesday and early Wednesday, and a shot of much colder air arriving by later Wednesday. Strap in for a weather coaster ride. Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 48-53 Cape Cod, 53-58 elsewhere. Wind NW 10-20 MPH and gusty, shifting to SW and diminishing slightly.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy evening. Mostly cloudy overnight with a chance of a few rain showers. Lows 37-44. Wind SW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
SUNDAY: Mostly cloudy through mid morning with a chance of rain showers, then sun and passing clouds. Highs 49-56. Wind W 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear evening. Increasing clouds overnight. Lows 25-32. Wind NW 10-20 MPH shifting to N and diminishing.
MONDAY: Cloudy through late afternoon with a period of snow/mix possible, favoring southern MA southward. Potential snow accumulation of a coating to 2 inches north, 1 to 4 inches south, mainly on unpaved surfaces. Some evening clearing possible. Highs 35-43. Wind N to NE 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY: Cloudy with a period of rain possibly starting as snow and/or sleet. Partial clearing possible late. Lows in the 30s. Highs may range from the 40s north to the 60s interior south, but much uncertainty here.
WEDNESDAY: Partly cloudy early, then mostly cloudy with a period of rain showers and possibly a thunderstorm, ending late. Lows in the 50s south and temperatures rising to the 50s if they didn’t get there already to the north early morning. Highs in the 60s except cooler South Coast, but may turn much colder west to east all areas afternoon and evening. Timing is uncertain being 5 days away.

DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 5-9)
Colder/drier weather for the Red Sox home opener April 5, and then it’s time to watch late next week for a potential precipitation event that may be in the form of rain, sleet, snow, or any combination of the three. Lots of time to keep an eye on that possible event.

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 10-14)
Though I would love to report a pattern change, I can’t quite that yet. Although I’m not seeing any signs of one of those spring blocks, I am continuing to see an active pattern with cool air domination.

7:16AM

DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 30-APRIL 3)
A cold front moves through the region today with showery weather. High pressure builds in Saturday which will be a nice spring day. Another cold front crosses the region Saturday night and early Sunday, starved for moisture, bringing mainly just a wind shift and breezy and slightly cooler weather for Sunday. Unsure of timing early next week but warm front approaches later Monday or Tuesday, and not sure if it pushes through yet so temperatures for the last day of this period are highly uncertain, though weather should be somewhat unsettled.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly cloudy. Areas of fog this morning. Rain showers likely this morning. Scattered rain showers this afternoon. Highs 48-55 South Coast, 55-62 elsewhere. Wind SW 10-20 MPH, shifting to W.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy with a few additional rain showers early, then partly cloudy. Lows 38-45. Wind W 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 53-59. Wind W 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Lows 43-49. Wind WSW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 50-56. Wind W 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.
MONDAY: Cloudy. Chance of mix/snow southern areas. Lows from the lower to middle 30s. Highs from the upper 30s to lower 40s.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of snow/mix north and rain south early, chance of rain showers later. Lows from the lower to middle 30s. Highs may range from the 40s northeast to 60s southwest, but highly uncertain.

DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 4-8)
Strong cold front comes through April 4 with rain showers that may end as snow showers as warm air is replaced by much colder air. Generally fair but chilly for April 5 which is also the Red Sox home opener. Have to watch the April 6-8 period for potential unsettled weather which may include frozen precipitation as well as rain.

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 9-13)
The region will likely be near the boundary of warm and cold air meaning additional unsettled weather and changeable temperatures.

2:56AM

DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 29-APRIL 2)
A warm front made an initial push into the region yesterday but didn’t make a major impact, and the front basically washed out, but a second surge of warmer air approaches today and passes tonight before cold front #1 comes through from west to east during Friday. The result of these fronts will be a couple episodes of rain showers and mild conditions. The weekend will be divided by cold front #2, which will have limited moisture and come through in the early hours of Sunday, so both daytimes will be dry, with Saturday being the milder of the 2 days, and a transition to cooler during Sunday. A warm front will approach the region Monday with cool air and clouds returning. Forecast details…
TODAY: Partly sunny morning. Mostly cloudy afternoon. Mid to late afternoon rain possible favoring areas west and north of Boston. Highs 47-55. Wind light SE to S.
TONIGHT: Cloudy. Rain showers likely. Lows 43-50. Wind S to SW 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Mostly cloudy. Rain showers most likely in the morning, less likely in the afternoon. Highs 48-55 South Coast, 55-62 elsewhere. Wind SW 10-20 MPH, shifting to W.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 38-45. Wind W 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 50-57. Wind W 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy with a passing rain shower early, then partly cloudy to mostly sunny. Lows in the 40s. Highs in the 50s.
MONDAY: Clouding over. Lows in the 30s. Highs in the 40s.

DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 3-7)
A brief surge of warm air is possible April 3 before a strong cold front comes through and brings below normal temperatures for the remainder of the period. Precipitation threats will depend on the proximity of the boundary of warm/cold air, with rain showers possible at some point on April 3 and/or 4. The late portion of the period may see the threat of precipitation which could be liquid and/or frozen.

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 8-12)
The region will likely remain near the boundary of warm and cold air meaning additional unsettled weather and changeable temperatures.

7:40AM

DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 28-APRIL 1)
Warm front crosses the region today. Cold front approaches late Thursday but wave of low pressure along it holds up its passage until midday Friday. High pressure builds in Saturday. Another cold front, this one moisture-starved, will cross the region during Sunday.
TODAY: Mostly cloudy this morning with spotty very light rain. Partly sunny this afternoon. Highs 44-50 coast, 50-57 interior. Wind light SE to S.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Patchy fog. Lows 36-43. Wind light variable.
THURSDAY: Partly sunny early, then mostly cloudy. Periods of rain possible in the afternoon. Highs 48-55. Wind light S.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Cloudy. Rain showers likely. Lows 40-47. Wind S to SW 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Mostly cloudy through midday with rain showers possible. Partly sunny remainder of day. Highs 48-55 South Coast, 55-62 elsewhere. Wind SW 10-20 MPH, shifting to W.
SATURDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 30s. Highs from the upper 40s to middle 50s.
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy. Passing rain shower possible. Lows from the lower to middle 40s. Highs from the lower to middle 50s.

DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 2-6)
Unsettled weather pattern and temperatures averaging below normal – more details to come.

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 7-11)
Similar pattern continues though temperatures try to moderate.

7:33AM

DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 27-31)
Only making a few timing adjustments in this update, but largely the same forecast. High pressure hangs on today, warm front approaches Wednesday, cold front a bit faster now expected to move through earlier on Friday, versus the later timing I had on the previous forecast. High pressure builds in for the final day of March on Saturday.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 38-45. Wind light N.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 32-38. Wind light SE.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Spotty light rain morning and midday which may fall as sleet and/or freezing rain interior locations for a brief time. Highs 40-48. Wind light SE.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Lows 35-43 evening, may rise overnight. Wind light S.
THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of late-day rain showers. Highs 47-54, coolest South Coast. Wind light SW.
FRIDAY: Mostly cloudy with rain showers likely through early afternoon. Late-day clearing. Lows from the lower to middle 40s. Highs in the 50s except upper 40s South Coast.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy. Lows in the 30s. Highs in the 50s.

DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 1-5)
A weak front may come through dry April 1. The pattern thereafter will be fast-flow but we’ll be near a boundary between cold air with surface high pressure in Canada, and milder air to the south which will be unsettled for at least a portion of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 6-10)
A progressive flow but with a tendency to have surface high pressure in Canada sets up the potential for unsettled weather and below normal temperatures overall during this period.

3:00AM

DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 26-30)
High pressure centered north northeast of New England and a large storm far to the southeast in the ocean will combine for fair and chilly weather to start the week. A warm front will approach the region Wednesday and though this system will be fighting dry air in place, it may produce some light precipitation for a portion of the day. A milder southwesterly flow will dominate Thursday, but this type of flow is not so mild for the South Coast, which will be the coolest area. A low pressure system tracking north of the region Friday will drag a cold front toward southeastern New England but with mild air around this time we’re looking at rain showers.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 34-40. Wind N 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 18-25. Wind N 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 38-45. Wind light N.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 32-38. Wind light SE.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Spotty light rain morning and midday which may fall as sleet and/or freezing rain interior locations for a brief time. Highs 40-48. Wind light SE.
THURSDAY: Partly sunny. Lows from the upper 30s to middle 40s. Highs from the upper 40s to lower 50s coast, middle 50s to lower 60s interior.
FRIDAY: Mostly cloudy. Rain showers likely. Lows from the lower to middle 40s. Highs in the 50s except upper 40s South Coast.

DAYS 6-10 (MARCH 31-APRIL 4)
A cold front will push through the region during the morning of March 31, based on current timing, and the day will likely start rain showery, then turn breezy/colder/drier behind the front. As April gets underway, a fast-flowing pattern will be in control, and timing of systems is always suspect. The early call is for a small area of high pressure to provide fair weather on April 1, then a period of up and down temperatures and unsettled weather April 2-4, probably warm front with light precipitation threat April 2, approaching cold front with mild air ahead of it, then rain showers April 3, and windy/cooler April 4. But over a week away by default makes timing somewhat uncertain.

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 5-9)
A progressive flow but with a tendency to have surface high pressure in Canada sets up the potential for unsettled weather and below normal temperatures overall during this period.

8:04AM

DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 25-29)
An onshore northeast flow will hold clouds in the region and also result in additional snow showers today, which will gradually diminish. One large ocean storm offshore will move away early in the week as high pressure builds into New England and another storm passes far south of the region then blows up into yet another large ocean storm through midweek, far offshore. The circulations of these storms will be large enough to keep a northerly air flow going early into midweek, keeping it on the cooler side of normal. A weakening system from the west arrives Wednesday but likely with only cloudiness and little if any precipitation. By Thursday we may get a narrow sliver of high pressure just far enough east to create a southwest wind here, which will be a much milder result for all but the South Coast.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered snow showers NH Seacoast and eastern MA, gradually diminishing from north to south. No additional accumulation. Highs 33-39. Wind NE 5-15 MPH but gusting over 20 MPH at times near the coast.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 18-27. Wind N 10-20 MPH. Wind chill around 10 at times.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 34-40. Wind N 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY NIGHT: mostly clear. Lows 18-25. Wind N 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 38-45. Wind light N.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Lows in the 30s. Highs from the middle 40s to lower 50s, coolest coast.
THURSDAY: Partly sunny. Lows from the upper 30s to middle 40s. Highs from the upper 40s to lower 50s coast, middle 50s to lower 60s interior.

DAYS 6-10 (MARCH 30-APRIL 3)
Low pressure is expected to pass just north of the region March 30 with a mild and rain showery day as a cold front pushes into the region. Behind the cold front comes windy, dry, and colder weather for March 31. A quick-moving weather pattern evolves as March ends and April begins on a tranquil note April 1 then may turn unsettled and chilly April 2 followed immediately by a warm-up April 3, however this is not set in stone being this far in advance, and is based on what I feel is somewhat reliable guidance regarding the upcoming pattern, with my own timing tweaks.

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 4-8)
A progressive flow but with a tendency to have surface high pressure in Canada sets up the potential for unsettled weather and below normal temperatures overall during this period.

DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 25-29)
An onshore northeast flow will hold clouds in the region and also result in additional snow showers today, which will gradually diminish. One large ocean storm offshore will move away early in the week as high pressure builds into New England and another storm passes far south of the region then blows up into yet another large ocean storm through midweek, far offshore. The circulations of these storms will be large enough to keep a northerly air flow going early into midweek, keeping it on the cooler side of normal. A weakening system from the west arrives Wednesday but likely with only cloudiness and little if any precipitation. By Thursday we may get a narrow sliver of high pressure just far enough east to create a southwest wind here, which will be a much milder result for all but the South Coast.
