DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 11-15)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We’ve made it through the brief but sharp shot of arctic air, and today the temperature will indicate our recovery as it rises above freezing in most of our region, but you’ll need a little patience as it’ll take some time. While it’s already in the 20s to around 30 over Cape Cod with even a few spotty flurries in the area as milder air starts to move in, it’s in the 10s for most of us, but as an uneventful warm front goes by and a south to southwest breeze takes over, we’ll see that temperature rise take place, even with some increase in cloud cover at times. That milder feel to the air will last through Thursday as well, but we’ll still have to deal with a fair amount of cloudiness at times as there will be more moisture in the middle atmosphere. A weak disturbance and a frontal boundary coming along from the northwest may create a touch of light snow Thursday evening, but this will be a minor event at best. During this time an ocean storm will be strengthening south and southeast of New England, and is expected to be mainly a miss, but be close enough to throw its precipitation shield across far southeastern New England with some rain for Cape Cod and the Islands and a bit of rain\/snow for the South Shore and possibly down to eastern RI. This would take place mostly during the first half of the day on Friday. Later Friday, as that storm moves away, it will help pull down another shot of arctic air from eastern Canada which will be with us Friday night and Saturday. When we get to Sunday, it will moderate slightly but still expecting a cold day. We’ll be keeping an eye on another storm system to our southwest as it approaches with clouds moving back in during Sunday. More about this system in the next section after the 5-day forecast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (JANUARY 17-21)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Watching a storm for MLK Jr Day January 17. Guidance has trended west with the track of this system during the last several runs but the track of the storm is still highly in question, so best wording is rain\/mix\/snow likely with gusty wind. Dry, colder January 18-19. A weaker system may bring a precipitation threat later in the period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (JANUARY 22-26)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We remain in a pattern where we are vulnerable to storminess with near to below normal temperatures into late January.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
