DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 12-16)…
High pressure brings fair weather this weekend. Just a weak cold front from the north will make Sunday a little cooler than today in most areas. Low pressure moves in from the southwest early next week with rain arriving Monday, peaking Monday night, then lingering as only spotty rain/drizzle during Tuesday. Broad trough remains in the area Wednesday but the initial surface low pressure area is well to the east and a second one is well to the west or northwest of the region so some partial improvement is likely.
TODAY: Sunny. Highs upper 50s to middle 60s. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows middle 30s to lower 40s. Wind light W.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs in the 50s. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY: Cloudy. PM rain. Lows 35-45. Highs 45-55.
TUESDAY: Cloudy. Chance of rain and drizzle. Temperatures mostly in the 40s.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of rain showers. Lows 35-45. Highs 45-55.

DAYS 6-10 (MARCH 17-21)…
Cooling trend and windy with a risk of rain showers March 17 and isolated rain or snow showers March 18. Fair March 19. Risk of unsettled weather and possibly cold enough for mix and snow March 20-21.

DAYS 11-15 (MARCH 22-26)…
Temperatures variable, near to slightly below normal overall, with an unsettled pattern bringing a couple of precipitation threats.

  1. Thanks TK
    Last full weekend of winter and it will feel spring like which has been the case most of this winter.

    1. And it’s highly likely the first weekend of Spring will feel more like Winter. But that’s happened quite often and is just a routine example of our variability in weather conditions, not only at this time of year, but any time.

  2. Good morning and thank you TK.

    Models showing a cutter/deep inside runner for 3/21,3/22 period.
    CMC shows a 957mb bomb.

    IF that becomes a coastal, we could double our season snowfall in one storm.
    Highly unlikely, but something to watch 9-10 days from now. They are showing
    something and pretty potent at that. Euro shows a 970mb Lakes cutter.

    2. My feeling is telling me any storm will not be that potent nor will it be quite that “inside”. Long way to go though.

      1. I’ll go with your feelings. One less thing to worry about. And when it comes right down to it, I know that no matter what I’ll love a snow storm. ❄️❄️❄️

        1. We’ll see how it unfolds. I’m not sold on a straight out snowstorm, but I am pretty sure we’ll be chilly and unsettled in comparison to our current stretch of weather. 🙂 That part is a pretty easy call. 😀

  4. We have seen that image you posted Dave so many times this winter with low to our west. Still time for that to change and hopefully for once it won’t be a the dreaded lakes cutter.

    1. Longshot, you’re doing what I’ve dreamed of doing for many decades: Seeing the Sox in Spring training. I just haven’t gotten around to it. I’m glad you had a good time.

  8. Not warming up as fast as I thought it might…
    In fact, Boston didn’t warm at all the last 2 hours at 45 with a SE wind. 😉
    I think today will be more of a late-day warm-up.

      1. Indeed, it is LA.
        And those mountains are within Los Angeles County, about 40 miles from down town. The San Gabriel Mountains are a mountain range located in northern Los Angeles County and western San Bernardino County, California, United States. The highest peak is San Antonio peak or Mt. Baldy at a bit over 10,000 feet.

        1. Thank you, JPD. Been a while since I was there and my vantage point was from the Hollywood section so clearly I was further away and the mountains were not 🙂

    1. Gotta love his editorial at the end “sad to see”. Couldn’t just report it. Had to comment. Reporting news has been dead for a LONG time.

  18. Leaving for Israel tomorrow–back on March 29. Assuming that we’ll be all done with snow at that point, so I ran the gas out of my snowblower today. I used it 4 times this season…better than 2011-2012, but definitely a disappointing winter.

  19. Being out and about today, it was very noticeable that many lawn areas have started to green up. Parts of my lawn are starting to grow !!

    While perhaps an inside runner would be frustrating, there seems to be other days where our air is coming from chilly Canada and so perhaps the inside runners offer some mild interludes.

  22. Updated! No big changes.
    Charlie… If you’re reading this, I still like later timing for rain Monday, but expect the morning/midday to be overcast and raw (40s) in the area you will be in.
