WEEKEND DISCUSSION…
\nWith the old low still offshore and fairly close-by, we’ll remain under the influence of its circulation through the weekend. A disturbance, or “spoke of energy” moving around it will bring cloudiness and some snow showers to coastal NH, northeastern MA, the MA South Shore, and outer Cape Cod during this morning. A few flakes may migrate southwestward into the Boston area and immediate suburbs but no accumulation here while the aforementioned areas may see a coating to 1\/2 inch of snow. Areas to the west and southwest are enjoying some sunshine and will continue to do so this morning. All areas will be in and out of clouds this afternoon but again clouds will be most dominant in eastern areas. By tonight, there is hope for a batch of drier air to clear out most of the clouds, leaving the sky favorable for the second peak night of the Geminid Meteor Shower, in which up to 120 meteors per hour may be visible. Sunday should be a day featuring a mix of sun and clouds again but this time with a little more sun in the overall mix. For those going to the Patriots game in Foxboro, the temperature should be around 40 at 1PM kick off time and in the upper to middle 30s by the end of the game, with a northerly breeze up to 15 MPH.<\/p>\n
NEXT WEEK (MONDAY-FRIDAY)…
\nLow pressure finally moves far enough offshore to keep its clouds away but not far enough offshore to keep its north wind away, which will limit the amount of warming that takes place as the air will be “refrigerated”, having come across newly snow-covered areas to the north. But still, it will be a very nice day. Low pressure will track northeastward through the Midwest and into the eastern Great Lakes Tuesday then redevelop over southern New England before moving northeastward into Maine on Wednesday. This track and redevelopment will favor rain, not snow, for southeastern New England, however as colder air starts to come back into the region behind the departing secondary low, some snow showers may result Wednesday night. A secondary cold front on Thursday may also deliver a few snow showers. By Friday, high pressure is in, with fair and chilly weather.<\/p>\n
