DAYS 1-5 (MAY 5-9)

A blocking pattern will control our weather for the next several days. High pressure at the surface brings fair and mild weather today, but a storm system to the south gets close enough to result in an easterly air flow Friday and the weekend, with cloudiness and some rain potential for southern areas, favoring the South Coast, later Friday and especially Saturday. Cautiously optimistic that a southward push of high pressure clears us out again during Sunday and through Monday.

TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 63-70. Wind NW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.

TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 45-52. Wind N 5-15 MPH.

FRIDAY: Variably cloudy. Highs 60-67 but falling to the 50s coast in the afternoon. Wind N up to 10 MPH shifting to E.

FRIDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Lows 44-51. Wind E 5-15 MPH.

SATURDAY: Cloudy. Chance of rain near the South Coast, Highs 48-55. Wind E 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.

SATURDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Lows 40-47. Wind NE 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.

SUNDAY: Sun/cloud mix. Highs 55-62, coolest coast. Wind E to NE 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.

SUNDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 42-49. Wind NE to N 5-15 MPH.

MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 55-62, coolest coast. Wind N to NE 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (MAY 10-14)

High pressure will be in control of the weather as we sit in a blocking pattern with little overall movement of systems except a sinking to the south of the high pressure area. This means a mainly dry stretch of weather, starting on the cool side followed by a warming trend.

DAYS 11-15 (MAY 15-19)

May sit in battle zone between warmer high pressure to the south and cool high pressure in Canada, leaving us vulnerable to additional unsettled weather and variable temperatures.

  4. Thanks 🙂
    I put more into that than today’s blog post because I was running way late today.. haha!

  6. Thanks TK.

    I am going on a different take on your blog 101 post yesterday. Somewhat surprised that you are not much of a Star Wars fan. I would have pegged you as a kid with all kinds of Star Wars toys, action figures etc. 😉

    2. I love Star Wars.

      I’m not a fan of the “may the 4th…” thing.
      Nails on a chalkboard for me. Sorry. 😉

  10. Boston just finished it’s longest stretch of below normal temperatures in a few years.

  11. Advisory for model followers: The guidance will do a good job forecasting virga as measurable precipitation over the next couple days. Keep this in mind. It will also tend to over-forecast temperatures, especially near the coast.

  13. Bruins look outclassed by Carolina. It’s been a thing this season against this team, and it’s carried over into the playoffs, thus far. Is it over? No. But, the fat lady is getting ready to sing. I’ll count myself lucky that I got to see Bergeron for so many years. Really loved seeing him play – he and Marc Savard.

    The Red Sox look lost, dazed. It’s hard to be out of it by Memorial Day. but, they’re trending in that direction. No offense. No bullpen. Poor defense. Not a recipe for winning. I pin most of the blame on Chaim Bloom. What a disastrous off-season he had. Poorly constructed roster with a $240 million payroll. Strange. Give Bloom no money at all – like in Tampa – and he does very well. Give him a lot of cash, and he spends it very poorly.

    1. I will be at the game tomorrow night to hopefully bring them some luck. Haha!
