DAYS 1-5 (MAY 12-16)

A lobe of energy associated with upper level low pressure will cross the region from northwest to southeast today, bringing a shower threat mainly this afternoon then moves off to the southeast tonight setting the region up for a couple very nice days as high pressure builds into the region. Another disturbance will drift eastward across the Northeast this weekend, bringing pop up afternoon and early evening showers each day.

TODAY: Lots of sun to start, then lots of clouds with passing showers and a slight chance of thunderstorms this afternoon. Highs 57-64. Wind NW 10-20 MPH.

TONIGHT: Clearing. Lows 40-47. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.

THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 60-67. Wind W 5-15 MPH.

THURSDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 42-49. Wind WSW up to 10 MPH.

FRIDAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 63-70. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.

FRIDAY NIGHT: Partly to mostly cloudy. Lows 47-54. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.

SATURDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated to scattered afternoon showers. Highs 58-65 coast, 65-72 inland. Wind variable up to 10 MPH with sea breezes.

SATURDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Areas of ground fog forming. Lows 48-55. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.

SUNDAY: Partly sunny,. Scattered to numerous afternoon showers and possibly a thunderstorm. Highs 58-65 coast, 65-72 inland. Wind variable up to 10 MPH with sea breezes.

DAYS 6-10 (MAY 17-21)

Continued lower than average confidence on the outlook beyond a few days. Current thinking though is that low pressure passes south of the region May 17-18 with some clouds for a time but generally dry weather, then high pressure dominates with fair and seasonably mild weather thereafter.

DAYS 11-15 (MAY 22-26)

Best chance of wet weather mid period. Not convinced we are all that warm and may end up near to below normal in temperature once again.

  4. I can never be accused of not having a very good sense of humor and those who know me well would support me on this, however, WBZ needs to back off on the attempted comedy during their radio traffic reports and just stick to reporting the traffic.

    While people should definitely know better, suggesting that they use the extra commuting time in their backup to finish putting on their makeup is probably not the wisest thing to say on the air….

    2. Wrist did Laurie sat. She goes on & on yesterday it was the sunset , stick to traffic

      1. My mistakes on this phone is awful I sincerely apologize. She goes off topic almost daily as I’m an avid listener to & from work

        1. I like her…she’s nice…
          And I don’t mind injecting a little humor in your report. We can all use a light moment and a chuckle. But sometimes they really go places they don’t need to. 🙁

  6. Tom I was talking to someone the other day and I thought Cowboys Bucs would be the opener for the 2021 season. The Cowboys when on national tv always get a good tv rating and what better way to start the season going up against Tom Brady and the defending Super Bowl Champs. As a Cowboys fan and I might be in the minority I never would have given Dak Prescott a 40 million dollar a year contract as I think he is an average QB. I hope I am wrong. For the kind of money paying him I got to get to a Super Bowl during the 4 years of that contract.

    1. he is an average QB, he does not make the players around him better like Brady has in his career. That is what makes a QB great. Bree’s Rogers, Wilson, Big Ben. Mahomes maybe, would like to see what his play is like if they loose the massive weapons he has.

  7. I can’t disagree with you there on Dak. For the Cowboys even with an average QB they could still win the NFC East as that division is not great.

  8. Capt,
    Was wondering if you enjoyed watched the 2nd season
    of Selena, the series on Netflix. My wife and I enjoyed it
    very much.

    1. To be honest, Dave, I haven’t seen it all, first or second season. I have been out straight t with remote teaching this year. I am lucky if I am awake for the Final Jeopardy question lately!

      I will put it on my summer watch list! Thanks for the suggestion.

      I have seen “Selena”, the film, with Edward James Olmos and JayLo many times and use it with my kids as part of my curriculum on Latino culture.

      1. JLo was superb in the movie.
        The series is pretty well done, not perfect, but not bad.
        Much much more in the series than in the movie. You will like.

  11. Thanks, TK…

    Top 10 Day!!!! 🙂

    Just signed off my (hopefully) last Google Meet/Zoom class
    EV-AH!!!! I never want to do that again!

  12. Thanks, TK.

    I just turned east on Rte. 2 from 128 and saw a rainbow. Last time I posted that would have been last October, and it never fails to captivate me!
