DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 24-28)

Unsettled chilly early spring weather will be the general theme this week. Today, low pressure in the Great Lakes with a frontal boundary extending into our area has spread clouds into the region (though a few of you may have caught a briefly colorful sunrise in eastern areas). A secondary low will form and move across our area by this evening. This system throws a disorganized slug of precipitation into our region this morning, with mainly rain but enough cold air in place for some snow in portions of our region mainly I-95 west and I-90 north, with some brief minor accumulation in highest elevations before rain takes over. The rain will end this evening as the new low pushes off to the northeast. Upper level low pressure crossing the region Tuesday will keep it cool and there can be a passing light rain shower, even some mix in higher elevations north and west of Boston. Following closely behind is another low pressure impact for Wednesday. This will be a small, fast-moving system mainly to impact the region during the first half to two thirds of the day, but it will be just cold enough so that if its precipitation shield is expansive enough, additional mix/snow can occur especially interior higher elevations. We’d also have to watch for any moderate intensity precipitation which could initiate mix/snow closer to the coast for a brief time too. In either case, this system won’t hang around and it’s not to be accompanied by enough cold air to cause “wintry road issues” during its occurrence. Thursday will feature fair, dry, but cool weather as high pressure dominates. A cold front will move across the region on Friday with some clouds and perhaps a passing rain shower, but any wet weather would be of brief duration.

TODAY: Cloudy. Periods of rain and some inland / higher elevation snow this morning, then steadier rain for several hours during this afternoon. Highs 40-47. Wind variable up to 10 MPH early, then E 5-15 MPH.

TONIGHT: Cloudy early with rain ending. Patchy fog during the evening. Partial clearing overnight. Lows 32-39. Wind N 5-15 MPH.

TUESDAY: Intervals of clouds and sun. A brief passing rain/mix/snow shower possible. Highs 46-53. Wind W 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.

TUESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy evening. Mostly cloudy overnight. Lows 31-38. Wind W 5-15 MPH, diminishing.

WEDNESDAY: Cloudy through midday with a period of rain, some mix/snow possible interior higher elevations. Thinning clouds during the afternoon. Highs 40-47. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Clearing. Lows 25-32. Wind NW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.

THURSDAY: Sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 48-55. Wind W 5-15 MPH.

THURSDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 28-35. Wind W to SW 5-15 MPH.

FRIDAY: Partly sunny. A passing shower of rain and higher elevation mix possible. Highs 45-52. Wind W to NW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.

DAYS 6-10 (MARCH 29 – APRIL 2)

A sunrise partial eclipse occurs on Saturday March 29. There may be enough clear sky that morning to see it, but this is highly uncertain. Fine-tuning to come. An unsettled pattern is indicated for end March / start April. It starts out cool and may feature a brief warm shot before another chill-down. Details of disturbances and resultant precipitation threats TBD.

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 3-7)

An unsettled pattern with below normal temperatures for early April.

  2. Good morning and thank you TK.
    33 earlier, now upvto 36.
    on radar snow was headed in but looks to have dried up.
    At the moment radar not impressive and most precip appears to be heading South.
    Note: I said at the monent. We’ll see if that changes.

    1. That’s great!

      I’m a big fan of Daniel Fahrenheit. He was quite an eccentric person. You kind of have to be to invent the Fahrenheit scale.

      2. I don’t like the metric system at all! So glad that the U.S. never truly adopted it. 🙂

        And I never understood why England and some other nations drive vehicles on the left. That looks more dangerous for pedestrians to me.

  14. Such sad news regarding the former New York Yankee Brett Gardner’s son, Miller, who died. He was 14. The cause is unclear. Apparently, several family members got sick while vacationing, but Miller fell horribly ill.

    By the way, I loved the way Brett played baseball, even though he was a Yankee.

    1. I saw that yesterday, Joshua. I cannot comprehend the pain that the family is going through. Miller was quite an athlete in his own right.

  16. Thanks, TK!

    Tagging onto “Vin Baloney” from yesterday, I have been told that, when trying to say “Don Kent” as a little one, it came out of my mouth as “Ken Tent.”

    Your comments from yesterday also reminded me of misunderstood song lyrics: Elton John’s classic, “Hold Me Closer, Tony Danza.” And, who can ever forget CCR’s “There’s A Bathroom On The Right?”

  18. 32F and raining, presumably freezing upon contact, in Nuuk, Greenland. A panoramic view from someone’s office or apartment: https://x.com/OJoelsen/status/1904099092059258911

    I’ve been obsessed with Greenland for about 54 years. In all that time of reading about it, listening to Greenlandic radio, following the news there for decades, never did I think it would become a hot topic in international affairs. Nor, I am sure, did the Greenlanders. My obsession had (and has) nothing to do with occupying or buying it. I just LOVE the idea of a place that’s cold and desolate, with hardy people who, as my father put it so many times, just want to be left alone. Intrigued me when I was 6. Intrigues me now at the age of 60. [By the way, I am similarly intrigued by Labrador and Siberia.]

  19. Just visited my favorite farm store. Steady cold rain. No snow here as you forecast TK. Hope those north of here are enjoying or enjoyed seeing some flakes.

    1. Yes indeed. The snow fell where it was expected – mainly north of I-90 and west of I-95, though there were some brief flakes in the I-95 belt and even into the suburbs just N of Boston.

      Interestingly enough, the ECMWF model is starting to show something interesting for early April – not just the GFS, which has been doing that forever. 😉 We’ll see…

  20. Cold northern corners (PNW, New England), warm south central US next 2 weeks. That’s the general idea.

    Interestingly, 3 major global models are more in agreement on a snow event over 7 days away then I think I saw them the entire winter. You watch……………………. 😉

    1. As I think OS would say….me likes. I have said a million times that anticipation is half the joy.

  22. I call this period – which happens almost every year – an extension of winter. I refuse to call it spring. It’s bleak outside. Not every day. But many. It’s often raw, windy, (cold) rainy, just uncomfortable. I like cold but not this kind. There are some nice teaser days thrown in (Saturday, for example), to be sure. But you kind of know what’s going to happen the very next day (yesterday wasn’t bad, but it was a late winter day, not spring). `Spring’ – certainly the early part – mostly stinks around here, in my opinion.

  23. This is a tough way to start spring after what I felt was a long winter. Does not seem to be any real spring temps on the horizon…yeah..this is getting long.

    1. Actually these are real early spring temps for this area.

      Spring is a cooler season in New England than autumn is.

  24. On sports radio, I am hearing a refrain that suggests amnesia on the part of the hosts who are saying it: “The Sox better get off to a good start this year.” Did they pay attention last year? Or the year before? Or even the year before? The Sox have done quite well during the first 3 months of the `22 (after a slow April, they had a terrific mid-May through end of June), `23, and `24. It’s what they did after that, in the second half, that was mediocre to miserable, all 3 years. My question therefore is, will they be able to avoid a precipitous drop-off in July and beyond. I’m skeptical. They just haven’t improved all that much, talent-wise.

  26. My friend and a former Boston radio DJ lives in North Conway. I’ll ask her how much snow she has so far. 🙂

  28. I’m seeing that great post-rain-amost-sunset yellowness outside. I know I’ve mentioned this before – as children, my sisters and I had our own meteorological term for this condition.

    “It’s Chicken Fat outside!”

  29. Jet lag kicking our butts right now. Yesterday we were got up at 3:30; I made it to 4 today 🙂 lol

    Anyway ended up with .97 QPF yesterday.
