DAYS 1-5 (NOVEMBER 13-17)
The back side of elongated low pressure pivots slowly away from our region today as we see lingering rain (and some higher elevation mix/snow) come to an end from north to south by midday. The rest of the day is mainly cloudy, breezy, and chilly. The storm system consolidates east of New England early Saturday then moves into Atlantic Canada this weekend, which will feature variable amounts of clouds but dry, breezy, cool weather. A trough swinging through the region will can bring a brief rain shower to Cape Cod Saturday evening. High pressure builds in with fair weather and a milder trend early next week.
TODAY: Cloudy. Rain and some higher elevation mix/snow tapering off and ending from north to south. Highs 40-47. Wind NE 10-20 MPH, higher gusts, especially coastal areas.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Lows 33-40. Wind N 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.
SATURDAY: More clouds than sun. Highs 45-52. Wind N 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. A brief rain shower possible Cape Cod. Lows 33-40. Wind NW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
SUNDAY: More sun than clouds. Highs 48-55. Wind NW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Clearing. Lows 32-39. Wind NW up to 10 MPH.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 50-57. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 28-35. Wind W under 10 MPH.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 51-58. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.
DAYS 6-10 (NOVEMBER 18-22)
High pressure continues to dominate through the remainder of next week with only a quick-passing, moisture-starved trough/front coming through around November 21. Milder trend then a brief cool-down with the passing boundary.
DAYS 11-15 (NOVEMBER 23-27)
Fair weather at first, but watching an unsettled weather signal toward the middle of Thanksgiving Week. Lots to sort out with a lot of variation and inconsistency shown on various medium range model guidance in response to a switch to a more chaotic northern jet stream and its interaction with a more active southern jet stream. Watch updates as this period of time comes more into focus.
Last night Woburn hosted Waltham in a league consolation playoff game. Score was tied 14-14 with one second left in the game and Waltham lining up to attempt a game-winning field goal. The link tells the rest of the story…

Is Waltham your major rival?
Either way, those kids must be on cloud 9.
I believe this is the first time we’ve ever played them.
Took me a bit to find. But what a finish. Even I was cheering and I’m not really awake.
WOW!!!
Pretty special!!!!
Thanks TK !
Wow, that is a COLD rain this morning, compared to last night’s rain about 8pm when I left teacher conferences.
Wordle: 5
I think I know who today’s conductor may be with a very low score 🙂
You have me most curious. You know something the rest of us do not?
Someone very familiar with this word.?
Well, I am most familiar with it, but guessed a more common word for guess 2 leaving me with 4 letters in position for guess 3.
I am facebook friends with a familiar, awesome blogger here and saw the person’s result 🙂
Well, who? And score? 1 or 2?
So my 3 won’t hold up? Bummer!
Excellent 3 also.
Very nice, Tom. 😉
Good morning and thank you TK
37 and that is the low
Ocean: 54
Wordle: 3
Interesting word today.
It is an interesting word. Great job, JpDave !!
With that temp, any wet snow flakes mixing in?
Thank you Tom.
Not that I can see. Precip is too light. I SAW a 6AM obs from Logan that showed light rain and snow, but 7 am obs was just rain.
Took me 6 today. I had all but middle letter after 3rd try. Too many options, went for the general words first.
You got it. I was worried about that when I had the 1st 2 and last 2 after 2 guesses. I was lucky and picked the correct one.
That doesn’t usually happen for me. 🙂
Getting it is always good. Welcome aboard
Looks like Outlook is operational again. That was an extremely long outage!!!!

First look at that elongated western piece of the system.
For an elongated low, which sometimes can consist of weaker pieces, that western sfc low is pretty decent !
Thank you, TK. 36 from a 35 low. 0.26” in the Bucket. 0.12” yesterday
JPD Tom and I are FB friends 🙂 I Wordle at midnight and post on my page then.
Wordle 2.
Way to go!!
Wow!!! AWESOME!!!!
I honestly thoought I had it in 2, but it was a common word and NOT the choice of Wordle today. I am satisfied with 3, but would have much rather have gotten it in 2!!!!
GREAT JOB!!!!
That’s amazing!! There are some great scores here today.
I barely made it in 6.
Welcome aboard.
Great getting it. As you all know, I don’t like to drive so please come on up 🙂
Thank you all. I had a big smile for a couple of reasons
Our engineer today, awesome !!!!!
SPOILER ALERT
2 reasons why today’s WORDLE word was familiar to me.
1. It was a well-know soft drink while growing up.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moxie
2. It is a movie on Netflix that I have seen a couple of times.

Wordle 4
Nice 4.
I felt pretty good about the front end of the system being somewhat productive last night and it was, especially further south and east that you went.
This piece, the low level 850 mb NE jet is doing a little better than I expected at this time.

Take 2 🙂
A few MA measured snow amounts.

So glad that Microsoft Outlook is back again this morning. It’s all I use for my emails. 🙂
Thankfully I go to my Outlook first thing in the morning. From what I understand it went out yesterday early afternoon. I didn’t know about the outage until I saw it on the tv news.
It was still out late last evening. I saw it was back up when I awoke this morning. Extraordinary length of outage!!!!!
It’s a great view from the Mt. Washington observation deck:
https://mountwashington.org/weather-cams/observation-deck-weather-camera/
Yes, indeed. Give it a few days and it will look like Summer!!
Lovely
It’s snowing in parts of sutton. Not here sadly
Still 38 here at this hour. This is shaping up to be the chilliest
day time of the season, but to NO AVAIL. It is still rain.
IF, and I say IF, we had heavier precip, it would be SNOW or at the very least mixed. But it is so light, anything that falls is melting before it gets to ground level.
38 here also. 36 in north sutton which I think was where they saw flurries
It was 43 in north central SC this am
TK. My grandson would like to know if the orange background is in honor of Taylor’s The Life of a Showgirl? My new phone color is orange
I can declare that to be the case!
Thanks, TK!
A raw 41 degrees with 0.38″ in the bucket.
Great video, TK! A very exciting ending to the game. It’s obvious that those kids are very well-coached! The player who scored the winning TD knew exactly what to do with the blocked kick. Some players, in the moment, don’t remember that you can score off a blocked field goal or PAT.
Go Tanners! 🙂
Some hints of increased storminess very long range.
See it on a few op runs and occasionally here and there on an AI run.
Not centered on one general area, but some lower simulated pressures to be sure.
Will need a good 7-10 days just to get the time frame into the medium range, so will be interesting to see if the hints continue or disappear in the coming week.
You mean something like this???

Too bad that central deep trough couldn’t be moved Eastward!!!!

Yes as well as other hints on the Euro op run and on their AI op runs.
U2’s first studio album with original music since 2017, Carnaval de Luz, dropped this morning.
The last track on the album features Dolly Parton. It is Dolly’s last recording. It’s called “Torn.”

This may be their best work ever!! I have herd a few tracks.
Pretty impressive!!!!
Heard!!!
My wife and daughter are already all planned out (flights, lodging) to go to Europe next April to see them on their next, upcoming tour. I forget specifically where, as I type this.
I wish them the best time of their lives!!!! Would be quite an experience.
May I hope it is one of these locations:
London
Paris
Dublin
Rome
Madrid
Berlin
And shame on you for NOT knowing!!!! 🙂 🙂 🙂
LOL, they told me a few weeks ago.
I looked it up, Stockholm 🙂
Oh, WOW!!!
Sounds wonderful!!!!
Ahhh Swedish Meatballs!!!!
We had a traditional Swedish smorgasbord and including meatballs every December 13, which is Sweden’s Saint Lucia day
Fun. Mac lived in Norrköping from the age of 2 for eight years I’d love to see Sweden.
Thanks TK
I was blessed to U2 at Sphere in October, 2023. It was, by far, one of the greatest experiences in my life!
I shot this video of the opening.

* to see U2
Awesome !
My wife saw them in the sphere also, around that time, but I think December.
Quite the experience!!!
Random:
If you like a wintery scene, call up the Mount Washington Observatory deck webcam.
Yes, there is snow, not unusual, but its caked on everything and looks pretty cool.
Yes, saw the link posted earlier. That snow won’t last long!!!
It looks like Mt. Snow, VT received about 5 inches of snow
https://ibb.co/YTJG8VT6
Nice !
A fb friend in NY ended with 17 inches snow
Oh my.
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/faa-orders-nationwide-ground-stop-departing-flights-reasons-safety-rcna609247
Has anyone heard more on the ground stop?
May be telecommunications.
The stop was placed “DUE TO EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCES AND FOR REASONS OF SAFETY.” The stop requires that all air traffic set to depart U.S. airports remain grounded. Any flights already airborne would be allowed to proceed to their destinations
“Flight tracking company Flightradar24 reported that the FAA issued the order following an equipment outage. The FAA’s advisory also cited frequency issues across the National Airspace System.”
This all sounds suspicious to me coming right after a massive Microsoft outage. But both claim they were not the cause of cyber attacks.
well when military bases outside the middle east are getting delta warning. You know something is up
You bet it does!!!
I’d forgotten about the Microsoft outage yesterday. Give me chills
There are other things going on, on top of the public messsages going on. All I know is that they better bet their crap together in time for my travels back home next month. I don’t want any surprises
The video from New Orleans of that tanker T-boning a docked river cruise with 130 people on it, and then watching it tilt over and sink was unreal as well. It would be a miracle if everyone was able to escape.
Oh dear heavens. I didn’t see that terrifying
Actually just saw a headline that everyone is accounted for and no serious injuries so that is some good news.
Thank God
Killington with 4″ of new snow and currently blasting the North Ridge as well as Superstar top to bottom with the snow guns. They have a window till Tuesday.

No flakes here in Coventry, just a raw, cold day with temps in the mid to upper 30s. Storm was pretty much a non event here with only 0.30″ in the rain gauge.
