DAYS 1-5 (FEBRUARY 11-15)
\nA frontal boundary sits over southern New England allowing a couple waves of low pressure to move up along it today, resulting in wet weather. Enough cold air has been trapped in the valleys of southwestern NH and nearby north central MA for pockets of freezing rain. The final wave will pull the front north slightly and allow a wedge of warmth into southeastern areas later today and early this evening before it passes and pulls the front eastward as a cold front overnight. The weather will try to get a little dramatic with a significant temperature rise and then a band of heavier showers and possible thunderstorms accompanying the final frontal passage. After this, it settles down overnight and the first couple days of the week will be on the quiet, cooler side as high pressure builds across the Great Lakes Monday then into New England Tuesday. This high will slip offshore by the middle of the week when we begin to turn milder but with a little more cloudiness as a couple disturbances move along a frontal boundary to the north of the region.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 21-25)
\nSome up and down temps but the overall pattern should be milder than average with no major storminess as it looks now, as a result of the Southeast ridge being strong enough to keep colder air in Canada from becoming dominant.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
