Another Warm Week...
School vacation week has gotten off on a chilly note...the high today was 41 but it was a cold 41 thanks to the gusty wind. We are, however, about to see another bout of Spring-like temperatures for the entire rest of the week.
High pressure will slide off the coast tomorrow and southerly winds will start ushering in another very warm airmass. Highs will climb into the 40s...45 in Boston...and it will be a warm 45 with lots of sun and much lighter wind. High thin clouds will be spreading in late in the day giving us a pretty sunset. Those clouds are a sign that the atmosphere is continuing to warm and a warmfront will work through by Wednesday morning. It will have a few light showers associated with it but once again no snow. In the wake of the frontal passage, Wednesday afternoon will feature temps in the mid 50s...possibly higher with any sunshine!
While this is going on, to our west, a trough will be sharpening as cold air slides south from Canada. That cold will push along a sharp coldfront poised to move through Friday afternoon and evening. A powerful surface low will travel to our west again and an exceptionally warm flow of air will work up the East Coast boosting temps close to 60 degrees on Friday before the frontal passage. A period of windswept showers and downpours will accompany the coldfront. Gusty west winds will cool us down for the upcoming weekend.
