DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 25-29)
Low pressure tracks northeastward from the Mid Atlantic through southern New England today through early Thursday with unsettled weather which will include some moderate to heavy rain showers mainly this afternoon and evening, including the risk of some thunder as well. Improving weather arrives later Thursday but another low pressure area, this one smaller, will race northeastward and bring another rain threat later Friday into Friday evening. A cold front charges across the region from west to east Saturday but will be starved for moisture and present only the threat of a passing rain shower. It will open the door for a shot of chilly fair from Canada Saturday night and Sunday. Forecast details…
TODAY: Overcast. A couple periods of light rain possible morning. Numerous rain showers, some heavy, and possible thunderstorms this afternoon. Highs 52-58. Wind SE to S 10-20 MPH.
TONIGHT: Cloudy. Scattered showers. Patchy fog. Lows 44-50. Wind S to SW 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy to partly sunny. Chance of rain showers early. Highs 55-63, coolest South Coast. Wind SW to W 10-20 MPH.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 39-46. Wind W 5-15 MPH, diminishing.

DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 30-MAY 4)
Surface high pressure crosses the region April 30 with a fair cold start and milder finish. A large high pressure ridge builds over the East Coast to start May with fair weather and above to much above normal temperatures, but a front may get close by late period with a rain shower or thunderstorm risk.
DAYS 11-15 (MAY 5-9)
Watching for a front in the area early period with a risk of rain showers and to determine if it will remain anomalously warm or cool off a bit. More unsettled weather is expected mid period with dry and cooler weather late period.
Thank you, TK. April showers!
Bring May Flowers, which in turn, bring Pilgrims!

Rabbits Love Spring flowers or flowers any time.

Good morning and thank you TK.
wondering if today’s rain under achieves.
not looking impressive at the moment and I don’t mean just here. well to the sw not impressive. could change of course
euro still not on board with anomalous warmth nest week. stll advertising 60s and low 70s.
as opposed to the gfs 80s
and seemingly a light wind flow which probably means dreaded sea breezes π
A favorite tune in honor of the recent Earth Day. Artist is Adrian Belew who has one solo hit called “Oh Daddy” .. an MTV favorite in the mid 80s. But this enviro-conscious tune from 1990 makes me think of you Vicki.

Belew has also been in several bands including The Bears as well as King Crimson.
Well at least I recognize King Crimson. The others, not so much. π
These words are great. I often wonder if God doesn’t look down and wonder if it is time for a second flood.
In sorting through boxes that moved here with me, I just came across a lot of children’s books. One was Brother Eagle, Sister Sky that I gave to my three in 1991. I just realized as I looked through it that it is signed by the author to my three.

Love it!
Awesome!!!
Thank you but I lied. It is signed by the woman who illustrated it and not the author. The author of course is Chief Seattle. An amazingly wise and farsighted individual.
Thank you, TK.
Adrian Belew is an awesome guitarist. Toured with the Talking Heads in the late 70s and early 80s. Check our “Cross-eyed and painless,” taped at a Rome concert in 1980:

Fabulous!
TEST
It works.
LOL, ho hum weather doesn’t draw too much interest
Especially when swamped at work. π
I’m sure if there was an impending snowstorm u would find a way… π
Yes, of course. Just makes it a bit easier
to get my work done when the weather is benign.
I did get much accomplished today. I am pretty
much done for the day. π
Winter has retreated from the Lower 48. But, in Northern Canada blizzards and snowstorms are the norm in April and May. Mid June to mid August is about the only time they’re ice- and snow-free.

That’s funny. 15 CM is ONLY 5.9 inches. π π π
Wow , I’m you all have heard Lana Jones on WBZ doing reporting for us all over the pants many years. She passed away suddenly. I loved her voice and how she reported.
Have no idea show she was.
I did Aidan. Very sad. She collapsed at home suddenly and died at the hospital early Wed morning. She had just worked on Tuesday. She was just 62. Very sad. Her reporting was top notch.
“Sure”
Dam “past”
JP Dave, Yes, I read that as well. Generally snowstorms in the far north are not all that moisture-laden. It would be unheard of in Kimmirut to have a 20 inch snowstorm, for example. This said, they do get lots of wind. Hence, blizzard conditions in spite of not a lot of snow. I would be stir crazy living up there. I like winter, but to basically have it 9-10 months a year would drive me up a wall.
Aidan, Indeed Lana Jones had a great voice (I love good radio voices) and was such a bright person. Very sad news.
JP Dave, on WBZ she would do all kinds of news stories.
Charlie Austin (WBZ-TV), Gil Santos…now Lana Jones. π
Celebrity deaths tend to be in threes. I have always found that interesting.
Just saw my first hummingbird at my feeder. I feel like a kid on Christmas morning
7 day forecasts from around the dial. 4 out of 5 channels have an 80 degree day on the board. This is usually when I declare an end to snow for the season.

Lightning strikes in southern CT
The B’s are fighting for it!
Anderson is starting to question himself. But I’d really love a 2 goal lead right now.
Heavy downpours and thunder here in Coventry CT
Been getting pummeled with rain in North Reading for the last 15 minutes.
Bβs did indeed need all they had, but they are movinβ on! Awesome series.
I donβt follow hockey but werenβt they written off yesterday?
By many π
I did predict 7 games several days ago… always felt they would pull it out though. Tonightβs pace of play suited them perfectly.
I saw a ton of negativity.
To be fair, they did not play well for 2 straight games. It’s on the team. Tuukka Rask blamed himself for one of those games, which is probably fair.
Tonight, he gave up 4 goals. 2 of them he should have stopped. But he was better tonight, and the team reverted to their old form.
I’d never give up on this team. Tonight, they proved they can win with their backs against the wall.
I recall you both standing by them. I like when a player takes responsibility. We all have off days. Says a ton about his character
Very entertaining game last night and glad the Bruins continue on !!!
In addition to Bruins/Lightning, I am really looking forward to Penguins/Capitals.
New post!
