Just Temporary...
The high today was 63...sadly that's significantly warmer than many homes due to the power outage...ironically if you opened the windows that would have heated the home in November. This warm spell is just temporary as a coldfront will march through very early tomorrow morning, knocking temps back down to around 50 degrees over the next couple of days. We will also have gusty NW winds so that high of 50 will feel more like 40 at times. By Saturday, high pressure will have settled into New England, this will affectively negate the wind which will be a bonus considering the high temp will struggle to get to 50 again.
Here comes the best part of the story...that same high that will chill us down will warm us up. Return flow on the backside of the high will warm the airmass and while model guidance output doesn't reflect the warm up, 850mb temps do and that is where I am getting my highs from for early next week especially considering the offshore WSW flow...there should be sufficient mixing to boost temps close to 70! Wind direction and clouds cover may limit temps a bit Tuesday and Wednesday but we are still looking at above normal readings thru the middle of next week. BTW, our next chance for precip will be later in the day on Thursday....a week away!
