Daily Forecast: Delightful Mother's Day Weekend

Warm and wonderful this weekend!  Saturday is the sunnier of the two days, and while a shower is possible later Sunday, the vast majority of us should stay dry.  We will see a spike in pollen count and UV index.

Daily Forecast: Warming for the weekend

Friday features bubbling, puffy cumulus clouds that will yield a few scattered showers after a sunny start, but this is the final disturbance of the lot, meaning lots of sun is expected Saturday.  Temperatures will rebound into the 70s this weekend!  An isolated storm or shower is possible in especially southwestern New England Sunday afternoon, but overall, a delightful Mother's Day Weekend.

Daily Forecast: Heavy morning rain gives way to sunshine

Though heavy rain slows the morning commute, sunshine breaks out Thursday en route to a delightful Mother's Day weekend for the Northeast.

Daily Forecast: Rain southeast, mild for many

Heavy rain will settle on Southeastern Massachusetts, including Cape Cod, on Wednesday.  A burst of rain will likely clip through parts of Central and Eastern Massachusetts, including Worcester and Boston, during the mid-morning, then will depart from all but Southeast New England, allowing for some breaks of sun amidst just a few lingering scattered showers and thunderstorms.

Daily Forecast: Scattered showers move in

A period of showery weather is moving in...though unlike last week, it won't be a continuous run of wet weather.

Daily Forecast: Improvement Saturday, Saturday night Supermoon, brilliant Sunday

Drier air is moving into New England from northwest to southeast, clearing skies along the way, but clearing skies last on Cape Cod.  Some middle altitude clouds may add a milky appearance to the Supermoon Saturday night, but it will be visible to be enjoyed and skies will clear entirely after 10 or 11 PM.  Splendid Sunday sunshine.

Daily Forecast: Morning rain and thunder, if afternoon storms develop some may be strong, improving weekend

Rain and thunder pushing through New England Friday morning, heaviest north, represent the leftovers of damaging storms in Michigan and New York Thursday night.  These will move through Maine late morning to early afternoon while many others see a brief break behind the first round of showers that may include some breaks of sun.  Temperatures will range from 70s west to 60s central and 50s east.  Where 60s and 70s occur Friday afternoon, new storms may develop later in the day, and a few may be strong, so it's a day to watch the radar.  While it's not a clear-cut case for storm regeneration, the presence of storms each night in a similar air over the Great Lakes makes them seem likely.  The weekend brings improvement.

Daily Forecast: Stubborn clouds...again.

One similarity in the weather from Wednesday to Thursday is a continued wind off the ocean, meaning lots of clouds.  One big difference is a surge of warmer air coming in aloft that carries showers and downpours from west to east out of New York and across New England for the morning commute, then further ensures mostly cloudy skies (though some breaks are possible behind the morning showers).

Daily Forecast: Stubborn clouds to keep temperatures cool

Wednesday clouds will break for some communities, but overall will be stubborn owing to an east wind off the ocean.  By Thursday, the wind direction shifts a bit to blow from the southeast, but a clash of lingering cool and incoming warm will likely spell more clouds and a few showers.  There's hope the warm air finally wins by Friday afternoon, though the best bet is for weekend improvement, with Saturday the sunniest of the bunch.

Daily Forecast: Raw and rainy Tuesday

There's no other way to cut it - Tuesday is a raw, damp day.  Steady morning and midday rain tapers to showers, then drizzle, but the air stays moist through Tuesday night as areas of fog develop.  Clouds will be stubborn Wednesday, particularly in Eastern New England.
