DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 16-20)

A little technical issue (computer related) results in a short discussion today, although not really anything has changed since yesterday’s outlook anyway. Today we’re in a healthy northwesterly air flow behind low pressure, with blustery and chilly conditions and a mix of sun and clouds – the latter may dominate for several hours in any location. A cold night tonight as high pressure builds toward the region and winds slacken but remain active. Thursday’s sunnier, less windy, still cool, but not as chilly-feeling as today. Look for an increase in clouds Friday, some potential warm frontal rain at night, then a push of much warmer air Saturday, which despite being breezy, will feel quite nice and can stay rain-free until a cold front swings through late in the day or at night. This sets up a cooler, breezy, but dry Easter Sunday as high pressure builds through the Great Lakes.

TODAY: A sun/cloud mix. Highs 48-55. Wind NW 10-20 MPH, gusts 25-30 MPH.

TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 28-35. Wind NW 5-15 MPH, gusty.

THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 52-59. Wind NW 5-15 MPH, diminishing.

THURSDAY NIGHT: Clear. Lows 32-39. Wind variable under 10 MPH.

FRIDAY: Increasing clouds. Highs 53-60, coolest coast. Wind SE up to 10 MPH.

FRIDAY NIGHT: Cloudy. Chance of rain. Lows 45-52. Wind SE to S 5-15 MPH.

SATURDAY: A sun/cloud mix. A possible late day shower or thunderstorm favoring areas north and west of Boston. Highs 58-65 South Coast, 66-73 elsewhere. Wind SW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.

SATURDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. A shower or thunderstorm possible early, favoring Boston south. Lows 45-52. Wind shifting to NW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.

SUNDAY: Sun/cloud mix. Highs 56-63. Wind NW 10-20 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 21-25)

Continuing the long weekend, fair weather for Patriots Day April 21 with a cool coast and milder inland. Unsettled weather threats appear to time out for April 22 and 24 with passing low pressure systems – details to come.

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 26-30)

Battle zone weather pattern between warm air to south and chilly air in eastern Canada. Potential for a stretch of unsettled weather and some larger temperature contrasts.

  1. Good morning and thank you TK.

    41 this morning and has only recovered to a balmy 45 now.
    A wee bit chilly. Let’s see how much the sun can do to warm it up a bit, if we can get enough sun.

      1. It almost doesn’t look like April 16th here in Quincy either. Not much budding trees with many still in “winter” mode.

  2. Incredible late season snows up north.

    Thanks TK. Chilly breeze sitting at 50.0 on the dot.

  3. Thanks, TK!

    I have noticed that the Taunton River at the Taunton/Raynham line is stagnant again and you can see more of its banks than a couple of weeks ago. The Taunton at Bridgewater was at 6.26′ on March 18. It was at 4.31′ on April 3.

  4. Today is one of my favorite kinds of spring days in New England. Very low dp, dry, but lots of diurnal cu / stratocu, below normal temps and the type of wind that hurts your head a little if you don’t have a hat.

    These types of days are nostalgic for me. They often seemed to be the springtime Saturday where we played with friends from right after breakfast until the sun was going below the horizon and the blustery wind was blowing lingering fragments of fractocumulus clouds across the early evening sky. 🙂

    It’s a good thing mom waited until later to make hotdogs & beans for supper. And grandma will be turning on Lawrence Welk at 7:30 p.m. 😉 A few years later it was time for Solid Gold. HAHAHA

      1. Perfect! The best show to watch dancers do moves to bands miming the lyrics to their hit songs while pretending to play the instruments that they actually did know how to play! 🙂

        1. The Lawrence Welk Show is still on Saturday nights on Providence’s PBS station!

          The Lawrence Welk Show
          WSBE-DT1 – 6:00 PM Sat, Apr 19
          Springtime in the Rockies (Kathy, Janet, and Mimi Lennon)Season 19 • Episode 36
          Renowned bandleader Lawrence Welk presents a selection of music performed by his band as well as songs by members of the Musical Family including The Lennon Sisters, Champaign Lady Norma Zimmer, Dick Dale, Guy Hovis and Mary Lou Metzger.

  5. This may be the latest I’ve read this amazing blog. It’s usually the First place I go at the start of the day.

    Thank you, TK. Always.

  6. I thought I caught a TV met posting 80F for Saturday. Not sure because I was on the phone at the time.

    1. In NYC yes which is why I am heading South to attend Mets Cardinals game. That will be my snowbird spring trip. LOL!
