Hurry Up and Wait

Posted by Pete Bouchard

Snow has been flying most of the early morning out through Worcester county...although you'd be hard pressed to find big accumulations:

Lunenburg 3.5"

Fitchburg 3.0"

Worcester 2.0"

Meantime, the rain continues through Lawrence, down into the North Shore throughout Greater Boston and down to the South Shore. The changeover line is just outside of Framingham and Bedford, and it won't take much for it to come down into the city later this morning and early afternoon.

That said, it's too little too late for serious accumulation along the coast.

Why so little? We're fighting the lingering overnight warmth and temps will be a marginal 34-35 through the afternoon. In addition, there's not a whole lot of precipitation left in the storm. From here on out, the focus will be on a growing area of snow across the Seacoast of NH and Southern Maine. There, the snow will intensify, whereas the surrounding areas of northeast Mass and southern NH will be on the periphery.

Slow wrap to the snow this afternoon and evening. It's not in a hurry to leave...

...but I can't wait for this storm to go.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Just In Time

Summer officially starts Friday at 1:04 A.M., and Mother Nature's sending in summer weather for us just in time.  Mid to late June averages highs near 80 degrees, and we'll be there temperature-wise over the next few days.  Mostly dry too!

That's A Wrap--I Think

I hope I'm not jinxing us with this statement.."The recent wet pattern is over....onto sunshine & a more summer- like pattern.." The last time someone from 7 weather called a pattern change too soon we got a blizzard and 3 subsequent nor'easters (looking at you Pete!!--LOL). We don't have to worry about any blizzards or nor'easters but one never knows in the new world order.

If you were caught in those 'cloudbursts' today, you had more than you could handle in the rain department. Torrents fell in a short amount of time - what we deem 'flash flooding' in the weather biz. Since it happens suddenly, the National Weather Service has adopted the acronym TADD:

Bam! Pow!

Bam. Pow! Those were some nasty storms last evening with some towns in metrowest & the city itself blasted with locally heavy rain, hail, lightning and strong wind gusts. A cool front is the culprit and that front will linger across the region again today. That means another round of some scattered showers & t-storms likely.
