Wednesday May 10 2023 Forecast (7:32AM)

Additional wildfire smoke from Canada will give the sky a hazy look at times over the next few days. We had a one-day cool-down from a flow off the ocean yesterday, but that switches back to a regional land breeze today with a warm-up, and this continues into late week but with an opportunity from a shower as a warm front goes by later Thursday / Thursday night, and a chance of a shower or thunderstorm both Friday evening and Saturday afternoon from a pair of cold fronts that have to cross the region. This will lead to a fair and slightly cooler (but nice) Sunday, courtesy Canadian high pressure.

TODAY: Smoke-filtered sun. Highs 65-72. Wind W 5-15 MPH.

TONIGHT: Smoke aloft. Lows 48-55. Wind W up to 10 MPH.

THURSDAY: Partly sunny / smoke aloft. Highs 75-82, cooler South Coast. Wind WSW 5-15 MPH.

THURSDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Slight chance of a shower or thunderstorm, favoring central MA and southwestern NH. Lows 52-59. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.

FRIDAY: Variably cloudy. Late-day or evening showers/thunderstorms possible. Highs 76-83, cooler South Coast. Wind SW 10-20 MPH.

FRIDAY NIGHT: Lots of clouds and a chance of showers early, then clearing. Lows 53-60. Wind W 5-15 MPH.

SATURDAY: Sun and passing clouds. Chance of a shower or thunderstorm in the afternoon. Highs 70-77. Wind WNW 5-15 MPH.

SATURDAY NIGHT: Clearing. Lows 45-52. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.

SUNDAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 63-70. Wind N 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (MAY 15-19)

Unsettled weather early next week with low pressure passing through the region bringing a chance of showers or rain and a cooling trend, with fair weather returning later in the period.

DAYS 11-15 (MAY 20-24)

Brief shower chance around May 21-22 with passing trough. Rain chance increases at the end of the period with a potential approaching/arriving low pressure area.

  1. Good morning and thank you TK.

    Got down to 44 here last night. Not too bad at all.
    We made it to 59 yesterday at 5:30 PM.

    I was out yesterday PM and it was beautiful. I did not require a sweatshirt or jacket as it felt comfortably warm to me. 🙂

    Let’s crack 70 today!

    Ocean temp: 50.54

  2. Today is one of those bittersweet days in Bruins history.

    53 years ago today, Bobby Orr proved than a man can actually fly.

    44 years ago today, Don Cherry forgot how to count to 5.

      1. Well, NHC seems to like to name everything, but considering that’s a cold core low with a cold front attached to it, no, it’s not going to get named.

    1. I think a lot of places down there are going to have another pretty cold one.

      And up here still leaning toward that cooler summer for eastern Canada and the northeastern US.

  3. if anyone want to know how warm it is. we are already seeing some coral bleaching down here in the VI. This summer the planet is going to burn. I am not looking forward to seeing the reefs pure white like they were back in 2019

  4. QUIZ: Boston averages 5 days with high temperatures of 80° or above from March 1st through May 31st (meteorological spring). This year, so far they have 2 which is average for this date. What is Boston’s record for the most 80° or higher days during that period of time? And for bonus points what was the year?

    1. I’ll guess. Really guess. 1914. As always the year has personal significance 😉 no clue as to the number of days.

      I know we have set high heat records in very recent years but I suspect you are looking way back

        1. Speaking of…

          As you know my son and I are working on an album to be released in August. As a project for the music video for the first single from the album I am going through my digital video archive to find many candidates for the very short video clips that will be used. As you know Google tends to keep a decent record of date and time and all of the videos that I uploaded were correct, except one. Apparently at some point I traveled into the future to December 9 3650. I don’t remember it.

  5. The answer to the quiz…

    Boston had 18 days of 80° or higher between March 1 and May 31 in the year 1977.

    I will repost this on the blog update today.
