Weekend Nor’easter Update
Posted by Joe Joyce Yesterday at 1:57 pm
Heavy Rain and wind has pushed into New England Saturday Afternoon. Winds have gusted over 60 mph in Greenwich, CT. 60 mph gust at New London, CT. 56 mph gust at Marstons Mills on the Cape. These winds have been taking down trees and power lines. These damaging winds will shift from the Cape up through eastern MA during the early morning hours. A High wind warning has been issued for NE winds 35 to 45 mph, Gusts to 60+ mph. These Strong winds are penetrating into the interior hills too! The strongest gusts will occur at the coast.
Heavy rain is producing hazardous and blinding travel tonight in downpours. Rapid rises on rivers and streams with plenty of urban flooding through tomorrow morning.
Heaviest rain will be found in Eastern Massachusetts where 3-5+” could fall by the time this is all over. Lighter amounts of rain on the Cape & in western Valleys..The rain and wind will be heavy Sunday morning and gradually work it’s way up the coast into Northern New England by Midday Sunday and Sunday afternoon. Sunday will be a very chilly raw day as highs will struggle to reach 40 degrees in the rain and wind. The morning deluge will taper to a lighter rain south for the afternoon…so conditions will become slightly better for the St. Patrick’s parade in Southie….though it will still be raining on our Parade…the worst of the storm will be winding down.

Quiet weather compared to the rest of the nation…

Whatever sunshine is left out there this morning will fade behind increasing clouds throughout the afternoon today. Temperatures will rise into the 40s in northern New England and at our coastlines with a wind off the water. The interior will manage to squeeze out another day in the 50s. My forecast thinking hasn’t changed too much, although I should add that there’s a slight chance of a passing shower or sprinkle today in advance of a warm front over southern New Jersey. This front will turn stationary tonight and tomorrow, meaning steady rain stays to our south…for now. Read moreSky Scenes! Thursday, March 11, 2010

You’ll need those shades again today because the sun just won’t stop shining (and I’m ok with that)! We’re going on Day 5 of beautiful weather here in New England, but this trend won’t last too much longer, so enjoy it while it lasts. Take a look at the forecast diagram for Concord, NH above…notice the daily sunshine duration row…ZERO sun forecast for Friday through Monday. Check out other cities by heading to weather.us. Tomorrow will start off with sunshine, but clouds will increase throughout the day in advance of the next storm. Thursday night could feature a few light showers and areas of drizzle, but there is enough dry air in place across the region that the bulk of the moisture will hold off until the weekend. Read more

Beautiful weather for now, but turning unsettled by week’s end
Posted by Danielle Niles March 9, 2010 (4 days ago) at 9:00 am
What a gorgeous stretch of weather we’ve had across New England over the past several days! Temperatures yesterday soared well into the 50s and lower 60s. Portland, ME broke their previous record high of 54° (1995) reaching 56° and Bangor, ME tied their previous record of 52° (1995).
Today will be slightly cooler in the wake of a weak cold front passage overnight, but highs will still come into the 50s in southern New England, 40s central and 30s in the North Country. This cold front also brought in a reinforcing shot of dry air, and in turn, sunshine will be the rule once again this afternoon. Read more
