DAYS 1-5 (FEBRUARY 7-11)
Oh how things can change, and they have here on this 39th anniversary of the Great Blizzard of 1978. We are having our own storm today, nothing like that biggie, but one that produced up to a few inches of snow in central and northern MA into southern NH before turning to sleet/rain/freezing rain. This scenario will go on for a while this evening and milder air will be moving in, turning everything to just rain showers. Very mild air will be in place early Wednesday, but that brief interlude will come to a crashing end as a strong cold front moves across the region and sends the temperature down in a fairly quick fashion from late Wednesday into Thursday. A low pressure area that looked like it may stay far enough southeast to just graze the region now looks pretty solidly like it will take a perfect track to deliver a significant snowfall to pretty much all of southern New England Thursday. Fair and cold weather will follow this on Friday. And as the pattern continues active, a clipper type low pressure system will bring the threat of some light snow by Saturday.
THROUGH EVENING: Overcast with rain occasionally mixed with sleet, especially north of Boston. Some pockets of freezing rain interior northern MA into southern NH. Temperatures ranging from near 32 northwest of Boston to near 40 South Coast. Wind NE 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
OVERNIGHT: Cloudy. Rain showers likely. Temperatures rise through the 40s. Wind SW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy with isolated rain showers morning. Partly sunny afternoon. Highs 52-60 by midday then turning colder late day. Wind SW 15-25 MPH with higher gusts, shifting to NW during the afternoon.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Clouding over. Snow developing southwest to northeast toward dawn and may be mixed with rain near the South Coast especially over the islands.. Temperatures fall through the 30s. Wind NW to N 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY: Overcast. Snow, heavy at times. Early call on accumulation a widespread 6-12 inches, but probably under 6 inches over Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard, and pockets of greater than 12 inches possible from northern RI and northeastern CT through central and eastern MA. Blowing and drifting snow. Temperatures fall into the 20s. Wind N 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows 8-15. Highs 20-28.
SATURDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of snow. Lows 10-18. Highs 25-32.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 12-16)
Next disturbance later February 12 into February 13 should come along with slightly milder air and bring rain/snow showers to the area. Fair, colder weather February 14-15. Next storm threat late in the period would likely be a snow producer if it were to occur.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 17-21)
Pattern should feature near to below normal temperatures but drier weather.

Monday Forecast

7:33AM / EDIT 3:30PM

DAYS 1-5 (FEBRUARY 6-10)
High pressure moves out of the region by tonight and a warm front approaches from the south by early Tuesday. A little wave of low pressure moving along this front will keep it from advancing too far north at first. Eventually, a stronger low, the parent to this front, will move through the Great Lakes and into southern Canada, dragging warmer air up into southern New England. As is typical, the cold air will hang on longest over the interior and especially valley locations. Precipitation is expected to arrive and also develop over the region from the pre-dawn hours to shortly after dawn Tuesday so that by early to mid morning much of southern NH and northern to central MA will be snowing, with mix/rain to the south. This rain/snow line will advance slowly northward during the day, but cold air hanging at the surface means that a period of freezing rain is likely away from the coast especially in north central to interior northeastern MA and southern NH. These areas will also see the most snow before the changeover, although the amounts will not be all that significant. By Tuesday night and early Wednesday, the warm air wins out with plain rain tapering to rain showers. A cold front will come through later Wednesday without much fanfare, but will deliver enough cold air so that the next precipitation threat, Thursday, would be in the form of snow. The question is, how far north does the low pressure area bringing this threat track? For now, going to lean toward a light to moderate snow event, with the greatest chance for moderate amounts being over southeastern MA, RI, and parts of CT, with less to the north. This system should also be moving fairly quickly. By Friday, windy/cold but dry weather is back.
TODAY: Mostly sunny through early afternoon. Mostly cloudy late in the day. Highs 32-40. Wind NW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Lows 25-32. Wind light variable.
TUESDAY: Overcast. Snow with a coating to a few inches possible mainly along and west of I-95 and north of the Mass Pike with the greatest chance of a few inches in higher elevations of north central MA to southwestern NH, changing sleet and freezing rain here during the day. Brief snow/sleet/rain elsewhere becoming mainly rain during the day. Highs 31-39. Wind NE 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Rain showers likely mainly morning. Lows 31-39 early. Highs 45-55, warmest southeastern areas.
THURSDAY: Chance of snow AM. Breaking clouds PM. Windy. Temperatures fall 30s to 20s.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 12-20. Highs 28-35.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 11-15)
A couple small low pressure areas are expected to track through the region during the weekend of February 11-12 with some light snow/rain. Will fine-tune the details as it gets closer. Improving weather but turning windy and colder by later February 13 through February 14. Next storm threat in pattern of fast-moving systems will be here as early as February 15.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 16-20)
Unsettled with precipitation threat to start the period, then trending drier. Temperatures near to below normal.

Sunday Forecast

8:32AM

DAYS 1-5 (FEBRUARY 5-9)
Low pressure passes north of the region today but has so little moisture to work with it just looks like clouds will be the dominant feature and rain/snow showers will never really materialize. Behind this system, colder air flows in for Monday and the next system approaches Monday night and Tuesday as a low pressure wave along a front to the south of New England, which will lift northward with time. That will bring snow/ice/rain into the region Tuesday with snow most likely in northern MA and southern NH to start, ice for a portion of inland locations and rain closer to the coast and areas to the south. This will lift out of the region later before a stronger low tracks well north of New England dragging mild air up from the south and causing numerous rain showers Wednesday ahead of a stronger cold front. This front moves through Thursday, which will be much colder. Will be watching to see if moisture gets out of southeastern areas before the cold air arrives early Thursday just in case there is a resultant change to snow there, but for now will lean toward the drier scenario.
TODAY: Mostly cloudy morning. Partly sunny afternoon. Highs 36-44. Wind SW increasing to 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy evening. Mostly clear overnight. Lows 22-30. Wind SW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts, shifting to NW.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny through early afternoon. Mostly cloudy late in the day. Highs 32-40. Wind NW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
MONDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Lows 25-32. Wind light variable.
TUESDAY: Overcast. Snow with a coating to a few inches possible mainly along and west of I-95 and north of the Mass Pike with the greatest chance of a few inches in higher elevations of north central MA to southwestern NH, changing sleet and freezing rain here during the day. Brief snow/sleet/rain elsewhere becoming mainly rain during the day. Highs 31-39. Wind NE 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Rain showers likely mainly morning. Lows 31-39 early. Highs 45-55, warmest southeastern areas.
THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy AM. Partly cloudy PM. Windy. Temperatures fall to 30s then 20s.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 10-14)
A dry and cold start, then milder with a mid period minor weather system bringing mix/rain, followed by fair and colder end to period.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 15-19)
Will watch this period of time for a little more activity in terms of storm threats.

Saturday Forecast

7:38AM

DAYS 1-5 (FEBRUARY 4-8)
High pressure slides from the Ohio Valley to the Mid Atlantic today bringing fair but cold weather to southern New England. Low pressure passing north of the region Sunday will drag a cold front through by Sunday night with a few snow/rain showers around. A shot of cold air follows this for Monday with dry weather. By Tuesday, the first part of a complex storm system will arrive with low pressure moving along the front to our south, cold air in place and overrunning warmer air above. Snow/ice will result. The second part of this event will be as broad low pressure area tracks north of New England, drawing mild air up from the south, first aloft, later at the surface, with a changeover in precipitation eventually to rain for Wednesday. It will be the transition period between that will be the tricky part of the forecast.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 28-35. Wind NW 10-20 MPH.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 18-25. Wind WSW 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy. PM rain/snow showers possible. Highs 35-42. Wind SW 10-20 MPH and gusty.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny and windy. Lows 25-32. Highs 35-42.
TUESDAY: Cloudy. Snow develops during the day and turns to ice and rain later day and night. Lows 20-27. Highs 28-35.
WEDNESDAY: Ice to rain, ending as rain showers late. Lows 28-35. Highs 38-45 north, 45-53 south.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 9-13)
Windy/colder February 9, then a more tranquil pattern with only a couple minor weather systems bringing light precipitation threats during this period.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 14-18)
A couple minor weather systems but overall a quiet pattern. Temperatures near to slightly below normal.

Friday Forecast

7:31AM

DAYS 1-5 (FEBRUARY 3-7)
High pressure slides from the Ohio Valley to the Mid Atlantic today and Saturday bringing fair but cold weather to southern New England. Low pressure passing north of the region Sunday will drag a cold front through by Sunday night with a few snow/rain showers around. A shot of cold air follows this for Monday with dry weather. By Tuesday, the first part of a complex storm system will arrive with low pressure moving along the front to our south, cold air in place and overrunning warmer air above. This will result in a snow/ice event, the details of which will be known as it gets closer.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 28-35. Wind NW 15-25 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 13-20. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 28-35. Wind NW 10-20 MPH.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 18-25. Wind WSW 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy. PM rain/snow showers. Highs 35-42. Wind SW 10-20 MPH and gusty.
MONDAY: Partly cloudy and windy. Lows 25-32. Highs 35-42.
TUESDAY: Cloudy. Snow/ice likely mainly afternoon. Lows 20-27. Highs 28-35.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 8-12)
The second part of a complex weather system is expected February 8 with ice to rain as milder air wins out. However, this is pretty far out to try to pin down any details. Fair, windy, colder weather expected February 9, then mainly fair and more tranquil thereafter.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 13-17)
Unsettled weather is most likely early in the period otherwise mainly dry. Temperatures near to slightly below normal.

Thursday Forecast

7:19AM

DAYS 1-5 (FEBRUARY 2-6)
This morning, a bunch of rodents in various parts of the country appear out of holes, or are pulled out of boxes by humans dressed in funny hats and coats, and make predictions about the end of winter, or maybe a script is read which is just for fun and actually means nothing more than the fun little tradition and news story this has become. Not to be a party-pooper, but regardless of what any animal predicts, the weather is going to do what it is going to do, and we like to peek out 15 days every blog, but the focus will always be on the first 5 days. So here we go, starting today, Groundhog Day, with a mainly dry and chilly day. However, an approaching cold front may trigger scattered snow showers and snow squalls this afternoon and evening, so be on the look-out for those especially if traveling. Squalls don’t usually last more than a few to several minutes, but can bring visibility way down and rapidly coat the ground with snow, making untreated surfaces slippery. This front will usher in the coldest air we have seen in a while for Friday and Saturday, though this will not be an excessively cold air mass by February standards. By Sunday, we’ll start to see moderation as low pressure approaches from the west. This system is likely to be split into 2 parts, with the focus of energy being both well north and well south of southern New England, leaving this area in between with just some snow and rain showers later Sunday or Sunday evening. By Monday, this system will be offshore and moving away, with fair and chilly weather expected.
TODAY: Sun and clouds. Scattered snow showers and snow squalls this afternoon. Any squalls may be briefly heavy with quick coatings of snow. Highs 32-37 central MA to southern NH, 37-42 elsewhere. Wind W 10-20 MPH, higher gusts especially near any snow squalls.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy evening with scattered to isolated snow showers and snow squalls. Mostly clear overnight. Lows 13-18 interior, 18-23 coast. Wind W to NW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 28-35. Wind NW 15-25 MPH with higher gusts.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 13-20. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 28-35. Wind NW 10-20 MPH.
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy. PM rain/snow showers. Lows 18-25. Highs 35-42.
MONDAY: Partly cloudy and windy. Lows 25-32. Highs 35-42.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 7-11)
The timing of the next low pressure system brings the threat of unsettled weather back for February 7-8, with the very early indications for a snow/mix threat February 7 and a milder push of air with rain showers for February 8 as low pressure would pass north of the region. This is not set in stone yet so check back for updates. Drier, windy, colder weather would follow this for mid period with more tranquil weather later in the period.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 12-16)
A couple of weak systems may bring light precipitation threats. At the moment, this does not look like a very stormy nor very cold stretch. Will watch for changes.

Wednesday Forecast

7:32AM

DAYS 1-5 (FEBRUARY 1-5)
Low pressure trough weakens over the region today with lingering clouds and possibly a snow shower. Cold front arrives Thursday with a few snow showers/squalls possible. Dry and colder for Friday and Saturday as high pressure builds in. A broad split low pressure system approaches later Sunday likely bringing a few snow showers at night.
TODAY: Mostly cloudy to partly sunny. A passing snow shower possible. Highs 32-40. Wind N 5-15 MPH early, then W 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 20-28. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated to scattered snow showers/squalls in the afternoon. Highs 30-38. Wind W 10-20 MPH shifting to NW late.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 15-23. Highs 28-35.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 12-20. Highs 28-35.
SUNDAY: Partly sunny. Chance of snow showers at night. Lows 10-18. Highs 32-40.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 6-10)
Next storm threat comes about the middle of the period, but too far away to be sure of track of system. All solutions are on the table.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 11-15)
Weather looks fairly quiet and seasonably chilly during this period.

Tuesday Forecast

7:31AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 31-FEBRUARY 4)
A clipper low will track just south of New England tonight, basically the right track for a southern New England snowfall. This will be a light to moderate snowfall. The elongated nature of this system will keep the snow going into the early hours of Wednesday before it all lifts to the north and out of here. But an additional disturbance may fire off some snow showers/squalls Wednesday afternoon, with one final one bringing yet another chance of a few more on Thursday. Fair and cold weather will dominate Friday and Saturday.
TODAY: Clouding up. Snow developing southwest to northeast this afternoon. Highs 27-34. Wind light variable.
TONIGHT: Overcast. Snow of varying intensity with general accumulation of 2-5 inches regionwide except a few amounts under 2 inches near the South Coast and isolated amounts of over 5 inches possible northern CT, northern RI, south central MA, and east coastal MA to southeastern NH. Lows 19-27. Wind NE 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy early with snow lingering in northeastern MA and southern NH, then a sun/cloud mix with scattered snow showers and snow squalls in the afternoon. Any squalls can briefly reduce visibility and quickly coat roads with snow. Highs 32-40. Wind N 5-15 MPH early, then W 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 20-28. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated snow showers. Highs 30-38. Wind W 10-20 MPH shifting to NW.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 15-23. Highs 28-35.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 12-20. Highs 28-35.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 5-9)
Next low pressure area may track north of the region later February 5 into February 6 bringing mix/rain showers and milder air, and a follow up system around February 8 may do the same, but the forecast confidence for this period is lower than average, so will re-evaluate for the next update.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 10-14)
Weather looks fairly quiet and seasonably chilly heading toward the middle of February. But again lower confidence here and will re-visit this tomorrow.

Monday Forecast

7:21AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 30-FEBRUARY 3)
For days on end I was eyeing the possibility of a snow event somewhere in the last 4 days of January. That “event” is actually taking place, but 99% of it is just barely offshore to the south of New England, with the other 1% probably bringing a little mix/snow to Nantucket later today. For the rest of the southern New England region, it’s more dry weather with a seasonable chill to the air. We’re now in a pattern of colder weather compared to what we have seen for most of January, and this will also continue into the first few days of February. A strung out area of low pressure with several centers, kind of a broken up clipper system, will slide east southeastward out of Canada and across New England Tuesday and Wednesday with some light snow and snow showers. This will reinforce the cold air for later this week.
TODAY: Sun and high clouds most areas, but thicker clouds along the South Coast with a risk of some snow/mix Nantucket. Highs 32-40. Wind W 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Decreasing clouds. Risk of snow with minor accumulation Nantucket early. Lows 15-22. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY: Increasing clouds. Risk of light snow in the afternoon. Highs 30-38. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Mainly cloudy. Periods of light snow with minor accumulation. Lows 20-28. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow showers. Highs 32-40. Wind N 10-20 MPH.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 15-22. Highs 28-35.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 13-20. Highs 28-35.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 4-8)
Fair and cold weather February 4-5. Low pressure area may bring snow/mix February 6. Fair weather returns February 7 but is quickly followed by another storm threat February 8.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 9-13)
Temperatures near to below normal with a couple disturbances bringing minor precipitation threats.

Sunday Forecast

2:23AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 29-FEBRUARY 2)
A cold front moves northwest to southeast across New England today but will have very little moisture to work with. Snow showers that occur in the mountains to the north and west will likely never make it into southeastern New England. What the front will do is bring colder air in for the start of the new week and the last couple days of January. A low pressure area developing south of Long Island Monday will track east northeastward, passing mostly south of New England, but may be close enough to clip Nantucket with some snow/mix. A clipper low pressure system will come along Tuesday with the treat of some light snow and minor accumulation. This will be an elongated system and will hang around into Wednesday with some snow showers. Dry and colder weather is expected Thursday with a strong northerly air flow from Canada.
TODAY: Partly sunny. Highs 36-43. Wind W 10-20 MPH and gusty, shifting to NW late.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 18-25. Wind NW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
MONDAY: Sun and high clouds most areas, but thicker clouds along the South Coast with a risk of some snow/mix Nantucket. Highs 32-40. Wind W 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
MONDAY NIGHT: Decreasing clouds. Risk of snow with minor accumulation Nantucket early. Lows 15-22. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Periods of light snow with minor accumulation. Highs 30-38. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow showers. Lows 20-28. Highs 32-40.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 15-22. Highs 28-35.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 3-7)
Fair and cold weather February 3-5. Watching a storm threat for later in the period, February 6-7.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 8-12)
Temperatures near to below normal with a couple disturbances bringing minor precipitation threats.

Saturday Forecast

9:49AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 28-FEBRUARY 1)
A west to northwest air flow and cooling trend continues through Monday. A reinforcing cold front may bring a few rain/snow showers to the region Sunday. A clipper system from Canada will bring a chance of some light snow later Tuesday to early Wednesday, but may have to tweak timing and impact depending on the exact track of this system.
TODAY: Sun/cloud mix. Highs 38-45. Wind W 10-20 MPH gusting 25-35 MPH, strongest in open areas and higher elevations.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 26-33. Wind W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
SUNDAY: Partly sunny. Passing rain/snow showers possible. Highs 36-43. Wind W 10-20 MPH and gusty, shifting to NW late.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 18-25. Wind NW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 32-40. Wind W 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
TUESDAY: Increasing clouds. Chance of snow or snow showers mainly PM. Lows 15-22. Highs 30-38.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow or snow showers mainly AM. Lows 20-28. Highs 32-40.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 2-6)
A colder period overall. Mainly dry but watch for a snow/mix threat by the end of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 7-11)
Seasonable to colder than average with 1 or 2 storm threats.

Friday Forecast

7:26AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 27-31)
A general westerly flow and cooling trend will take place the next few days. Disturbances embedded in the flow may result in a few rain/snow showers today and a few snow showers Sunday. By Monday-Tuesday we’ll need to keep an eye on an evolving offshore storm in case it comes close enough to bring steadier precipitation, but leaning toward the drier scenario for now.
TODAY: Variably cloudy. Isolated rain/snow showers. Highs 38-45. Wind WSW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 22-30. Wind W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 32-40. Wind W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow showers. Lows 20-28. Highs 32-40.
MONDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow showers. Lows 18-26. Highs 30-38.
TUESDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow showers. Lows 18-26. Highs 30-38.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 1-5)
A disturbance may bring a risk of snow to start the period but timing and placement is not certain at this point. Generally dry and seasonable to colder than average otherwise.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 6-10)
Overall chilly pattern, and a couple snow/mix chances come along as well.

Thursday Forecast

7:26AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 26-30)
A warm front brought some light rain to portions of southern New England overnight. A cold front will create some rain showers today, but it will also be quite mild ahead of the front. When we get to Friday, a cooling trend will commence and last the remainder of the period, as we get into a northwesterly air flow and colder air slowly drains out of Canada. Disturbances can create a few rain/snow showers Friday, and a few snow showers Sunday-Monday, and we’ll also have to watch for a possible offshore storm Sunday and/or Monday. Current indications are that this would occur too far offshore to impact the region, but should be watched in case it ends up closer than expected.
TODAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered rain showers. High 46-54. Wind SW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts possible.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 30-38. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated rain/snow showers. Highs 38-45. Wind WNW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts possible.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 22-30. Wind WNW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 32-40. Wind NW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow showers. Lows 20-28. Highs 32-40.
MONDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow showers. Lows 18-26. Highs 30-38.

DAYS 6-10 (JANUARY 31-FEBRUARY 4)
Additional disturbances may bring a risk of snow or snow showers sometime in the January 31-February 1 time frame, then fair weather returns. Temperatures near to below normal.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 5-9)
Briefly milder early in the period, a mid period risk of rain/snow, then fair and colder later weather following.

Wednesday Forecast

7:14AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 25-29)
Low pressure finally pulls away and high pressure builds in from the west today with dry weather, but low pressure will then track north of the region Thursday bringing mild air and rain showers. After that we trend toward more seasonable cold during the Friday-Sunday period with mainly dry weather, but there still remains one wild card of an approaching upper trough later in the weekend and will watch for that to kick off the threat of snow showers.
TODAY: Clouds dominate the morning and any drizzle ends eastern coastal areas. Sun dominates afternoon. Highs 39-46. Wind W 10-20 MPH, higher gusts possible.
TONIGHT: Increasing clouds. Chance of light rain after midnight. Lows 35-42 evening, rising overnight. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of light rain early. Chance of rain showers in the afternoon. High 46-54. Wind SW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts possible.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 30-38. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Highs 38-45. Wind WNW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts possible.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 22-30. Highs 32-40.
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow showers. Lows 20-28. Highs 32-40.

DAYS 6-10 (JANUARY 30-FEBRUARY 3)
Watching for a potential snow event January 30 and/or 31, otherwise a couple episodes of snow showers possible from passing disturbances in an overall dry and seasonably chilly pattern.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 4-8)
Again overall pattern looks more seasonably chilly and will watch for a couple snow/mix threats during this period.

Tuesday Forecast

7:36AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 24-28)
Storm continues to impact the region today then makes a slow exit tonight and early Wednesday. A weaker low pressure area passes north of the region Thursday. The end of the week turns somewhat colder.
TODAY: Overcast. Periods of rain, some mix north central MA and southwestern NH. Highs 33-44, coldest north central MA and southwestern NH and mildest South Coast. Wind NE to N 15-30 MPH with higher gusts.
