DAYS 1-5 (DECEMBER 22-26)…
\nSame idea as yesterday’s post. Ridge rules aloft, but a front wavering around the area the next couple days causes occasional wet weather with most rain during the morning to early afternoon today and Wednesday afternoon and evening. The frontal boundary lifts to the north allowing the warmest air of the stretch in for the daylight hours of Christmas Eve (Thursday) before a cold front knocks it back a little bit for Christmas Day (Friday). A few rain showers and even an isolated thunderstorm may occur with this approaching boundary sometime on Thursday. So no “old fashioned feel of Christmas” this year, but we are always at the mercy of Mother Nature and her complex weather patterns, and this year’s El Nino driven pattern says WARM and GREEN\/BROWN Christmas! As we head into “Christmas Weekend” we’ll watch for an approaching wave of low pressure by late Saturday with clouds and a rain risk.
\nTODAY: Cloudy into mid afternoon with periods of rain. Breaking clouds especially Boston area westward at the end of the day. Highs 50-57. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
\nTUESDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Patchy fog. Lows 41-48. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
\nWEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Rain redeveloping from south to north midday through afternoon. Highs 48-55. Wind SE to E 5-15 MPH.
\nWEDNESDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Periods of rain early, then isolated rain showers. Temperatures steady 48-55. Wind SE to S 5-15 MPH.
\nTHURSDAY – CHRISTMAS EVE: Variably cloudy. Chance of rain showers. Slight chance of a thunderstorm late. Highs 55-62 South Coast, 60s elsewhere.
\nFRIDAY – CHRISTMAS DAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 30s. Highs in the 50s.
\nSATURDAY: Increasing clouds. Chance of rain late. Lows in the 30s. Highs in the 40s.<\/p>\n
DAYS 6-10 (DECEMBER 27-31)…
\nCooler with some unsettled weather with a departing low pressure wave still bringing the risk of wet weather to southern areas December 27 before another system brings a risk of wet weather late December 28 into December 29. The last couple days of 2015 look drier and should turn more seasonably chilly.<\/p>\n
DAYS 11-15 (JANUARY 1-5)…
\nThe first few days of 2016 look mainly dry and seasonably chilly to slightly milder than normal. Watching for possible unsettled weather later in the period but low confidence this far in advance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
