DAYS 1-5 (DECEMBER 11-15)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A cold front will pull offshore to the east by mid morning, putting an end to the rain and wind event. The strongest winds ended up more confined to Cape Cod and were very limited elsewhere, which is good. Heavy rainfall has resulted in some street and minor stream flooding, but in general with the lack of heavier rainfall events recently, the drainage system took it well, other than parking lot and road drains that may have been debris-blocked. Watch for ponding of water and additional heavy rain early on if you are about to travel mainly from I-95 eastward, but these issues quickly go away. The rest of today will see a drying trend with a gusty breeze and a chill-down. But this is not arctic air moving in behind this front, so just chilly and not “wicked cold”. The weather pattern for the rest of the week will be quiet. A broad low pressure trough will keep it chilly through midweek. A reinforcing cold front swings through Wednesday with a possible flurry, otherwise dry weather prevails. The trough exits and a flat upper ridge arrives to initiate a temperature moderation at the end of the week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TODAY: Cloudy into mid morning with rain exiting from west to east. Sun\/cloud mix late morning on with a passing afternoon snow shower possible favoring higher elevations central MA and southwestern NH. Highs 40-47 except 48-55 Cape Cod early before falling. Wind S 15-30 MPH with higher gusts over Cape Cod early, otherwise W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (DECEMBER 16-20)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Overall pattern is expected to feature a westerly flow with near to above normal temperatures and below normal precipitation heading through the final days of astronomical autumn. Southern jet stream moisture is expected to remain far to the south, with an ocean storm staying well offshore mid to late period. A weaker disturbance or two can swing through here via the Great Lakes and cause minor rain\/snow showers a couple times with short-lived colder shots in an overall milder pattern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (DECEMBER 21-25)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A similar but possibly slightly more amplified pattern heading from the Winter Solstice to Christmas. No indications of major storminess. We do have a shot at a quick precipitation event or two. Temperatures are likely to be variable, but average near to above normal for the period.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
