Is it Sunday already? Time for a look ahead at the next 7 days!
Yes, we’re still in a bit of a roller coaster temperature pattern, which will continue for 2 more days. We’ve had a slightly milder weekend, though today is a little cooler than Saturday was. Some of you in the Boston area may have noticed a little very light snow falling early this afternoon as a warm front slid across the region. This front will be pushing north of this area tonight, into northern New England, and will provide focus for a Valentines Day snowfall in the northern ski areas. In southern New England, Valentines Day will be mainly dry, with only a slight chance of a rain shower during the day and a snow shower at night as we will be in the warm sector south of a passing low pressure area. A cold front will charge across the region at night, setting us up for a bright but very cold Tuesday.
A warming trend begins on Wednesday, and will last through Friday. These 3 days will see varying amounts of clouds, but no precipitation. Some areas may see 50 degree temperatures, or possibly even higher. Which day will this occur? The answer is below.
A peek at next weekend shows that Saturday should be a windy day with possibly a rain shower to start the day as mild air departs the region, leading to a bright but colder Sunday. Oh and since next weekend is a long weekend for some of you, how about a quick bonus peek at Presidents Day (Monday February 21). It may snow. But after all, it is February…
