DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 17-21)
\nHello and Happy St. Patrick’s Day to all! Apologizes for the post that left you a bit info-deprived yesterday. Back on track today! High pressure provides what will be the nicest day of the week today, albeit starting with some cloudiness over parts of eastern MA due to a weak inversion (a thin layer of warmer air just above colder air) in the lower atmosphere this morning. Low pressure will approach Saturday and wobble its way south of New England Sunday, intensifying as it does so. An area of mix\/snow will occur Saturday night into Sunday for at least portions of southern New England (CT, RI, southern MA) and the questions remain of how heavy does it get and how far north and west does it expand. Will attempt to answer these by tomorrow, but for now the further south and east you are the better chance of accumulating snow exists. There may be a fairly narrow swath of significant snow along an inverted trough (basically a line of lower pressure and air convergence that extends back from a departing low pressure center). Spring arrives, well the Vernal Equinox occurs, on Monday, and some nicer weather is expected then as well as Tuesday. But we know that the arrival of official spring does not always mean the winter switch is shut off…
\nTODAY: Variably cloudy start over eastern MA then increasing sun. A few clouds may drift into RI. Mostly sunny otherwise. Highs 35-42. Wind light variable.
\nTONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 10-15 interior snow-covered areas, 16-22 elsewhere. Wind light variable.
\nSATURDAY: Sunshine fading behind increasing clouds. Highs 33-40. Wind light variable.
\nSATURDAY NIGHT: Cloudy. Snow developing overnight especially southern MA, CT, RI. Lows 20-27. Wind light N to NE.
\nSUNDAY: Cloudy. Periods of snow, especially southern areas, with some accumulation. Highs 30-37. Wind light NE to N.
\nMONDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows 15-22. Highs 40-47.
\nTUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 20-27. Highs 45-53.<\/p>\n
DAYS 6-10 (MARCH 22-26)
\nUnsettled weather is possible both early and again late in the period. Temperatures near to below normal.<\/p>\n
DAYS 11-15 (MARCH 27-31)
\nAnother episode of unsettled weather is most likely during the middle of the period. Temperatures near to above normal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
