7:18AM<\/p>\n
DAYS 1-5 (NOVEMBER 13-17)
\nCold air more like mid winter is here for a brief but stinging stay today, with wind making it feel even colder than the actual air temperature. Boston should break a long-standing record set in 1874 (36) for the coldest high temperature for the day (forecasting a 33). Bundle up if you’ll be outside! The bubble of arctic high pressure that brought this air to us will slide offshore by Thursday, and gradually warming air will bring more cloudiness and perhaps a snow or rain shower by evening but not looking for much out of that threat. This will hang on until early Friday and then a westerly air flow will increase as a moisture-starved trough approaches and passes, clearing it out. A cold front will pass later and bring in another brief shot of colder air for Saturday before a slight moderation takes place Sunday with high pressure in control. However this high will give way somewhat to low pressure to the south later Sunday allowing some increased cloudiness. I don’t expect that low pressure area to move too quickly or too far north to spoil the end of the weekend.

DAYS 6-10 (NOVEMBER 18-22)
\nWatching low pressure to the south in the November 18-21 period, likely 2 centers, either of which can impact the region with at least clouds and a gusty breeze, but may be close enough for precipitation (favoring rain). By the end of the period a dry westerly air flow should be back.<\/p>\n
DAYS 11-15 (NOVEMBER 23-27)
\nA zonal (west to east) flow pattern with up and down temperatures, averaging near to slightly above normal overall, and a couple rain shower threats, the greater one toward the end of the period.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
