Saturday Midday Update

11:40AM

With the coastal snow burst now just about a done deal, except for lingering snow over Cape Cod late Saturday morning, here is an updated eastern MA, RI, and southern NH forecast… But first a little about snow amounts. Clearly not an easy forecast to make, given the quick development, small size, and southward movement of a low pressure center just off the NH/MA coast during the early morning hours. When I saw the webcam at Hampton Beach NH at 4AM and saw heavy snow falling with what looked like at least 2 inches on the ground, I knew that somebody was going to be in a local jackpot area of significance. Stratham, NH, appears to be the winner, with 8.5 inches. But amounts of 4+ inches did take place in other locations, including parts of Cape Ann MA. Up to a few inches were reported on the South Shore, south of Boston, where I did not expected that much to fall. Here in Woburn, we had a brief coating on the unpaved surfaces, which is now long gone. Even areas that got significant snow will not hold onto it for much more than a day, as another March warm-up is on the way…

THIS AFTERNOON: Partly to mostly sunny. High 35-40. Wind N to NW 10-20 MPH.

TONIGHT: Increasing clouds. Low 24-29 early then rising into the 30s. Wind variable shifting to SW around 10 MPH.

SUNDAY: Clouds early, then mostly sunny. High 50-55. Wind SW 10-20 MPH.

MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Low 41. High 67.

TUESDAY: Partly sunny. Low 47. High 64.

WEDNESDAY: Partly sunny. Low 38. High 58.

THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy. Low 38. High 52.

FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Low 35. High 55.

      1. Believe It or not, not that bad. I am hungy and would love a hot cup of coffee. It takes me 30
        Minutes to drink a cold cup. Good with 800 mg of Morton. May take something stronger later.thanks. not much rest. In Boston now seeing my mom in rehab. She had back surgery last week.

        1. Hi John. Sorry been out for day. Glad you are doing well. No hot :). Take care and hope your mom is doing ok.

  2. Thank you TK – oddly I didn’t mind it not snowing here – I guess I am simply ready for spring

  3. Jeremy on Channel 7 doesn’t see any afternoon temps in the 30’s again until November (emphasis on AFTERNOON).

    1. Of course we could have a day with afternoon temps in the teens in April. It happened on April 7 1982. 🙂

    2. My problem with TV guys is they sometimes decide the weather pattern on the GFS and/or Euro for the next 8-15 days is the pattern for the next 2 months. 🙂
