DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 26-30)…
\nA quick entry to start off this “beautiful” Easter Weekend and with a reminder of how the weather can often be immune to prediction. What a couple days ago looked like about as good a weekend as you can get in March, is not going to turn out quite that way. Don’t fear, we’re not about to have a wash-out of a weekend, but we’ll have to pay the price for part of it with low cloudiness due to a poorly-forecast, or not-forecast-at all low level inversion that’s enabling a blanket of stratus clouds to dominate this morning, and then a high pressure centered a little further east and north than originally anticipated, allowing more of an ocean air flow to dominate even into Sunday. This changes the game for the coast, which because of the chilly ocean will not be nearly as warm as it may have been with a land breeze. Perhaps Mother Nature is saying “you’ve had it too good so I’m taking one away”. After a fairly “easy” Winter and a very mild stretch for much of the last few months, save for brief interruptions, can we really expect the weather in New England to be perfect? It doesn’t matter what it has been like, or what you want, it’s going to do what it does. But that said, though there is a price to pay for living next to the giant salt water puddle otherwise known as the Atlantic Ocean, this weekend won’t be all that bad. Once we get beyond it, we’ll have the classic “rainy Monday” as low pressure traverses the region. But this progressive nature of the pattern will allow this system to fly right along and be out of here by Tuesday, which will be windy and chilly. This will be followed by a quick warm-up and fair weather on Wednesday as high pressure sinks to the southeast of the region.
\nTODAY: Cloudy to partly sunny through midday. Partly cloudy this afternoon. Highs in the 40s, coolest coast. Wind light N to E.
\nTONIGHT: Partly to mostly cloudy. Lows in the 30s. Wind light E.
\nSUNDAY – EASTER: Mostly cloudy to partly sunny. Highs 40s coast, 50s inland. Wind light E to SE.
\nSUNDAY NIGHT: Clouding up. Lows around 40. Wind SE 5-15 MPH.
\nMONDAY: Overcast with periods of rain. Highs around 50. Wind SE 10-20 MPH and gusty, shifting to W late.
\nTUESDAY: Mostly sunny and windy. Lows in the 20s. Highs around 40.
\nWEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny and breezy. Lows in the 30s. Highs in the 50s.<\/p>\n
DAYS 6-10 (MARCH 31-APRIL 4)…
\nLooks like a relatively warm ending to March for the final day of the month, exception likely being Cape Cod and the South Coast. Watching an approaching front from the west that may bring a rain shower threat. More likely that a system brings mild and showery weather for the first day of April. Transition to colder during the April 2-3 weekend. The passage of a trough and cold front may bring a few periods of clouds and perhaps a rain shower on April 2 and even snow shower on April 3 during this transition. Look for dry but possibly mostly cloudy weather and below normal temperatures for April 4.<\/p>\n
DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 5-9)…
\nBelow normal temperatures with a mid period risk of some precipitation – odds favor wet over white, but cannot rule out late season snowflakes in some areas based on the expected pattern.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
