Rain on the Way...

For the first time in 10 days, since the October Nor'easter, we will see precipitation...this time around it will be all rain however.  A coldfront is marching in from the west...this is the divider between the very warm air and much cooler air that we will see late this week and to start the weekend.  The front itself was very active and produced dangerous thunderstorm outbreaks over the last few nights but it is now much less potent and will only have a few showers along it  when it  passes through very early Friday morning.  The wildcard here  is Tropical Storm Sean...here is the latest.  Clearly the storm itself won't affect us but a little piece of moisture is going to break off from the storm and make a beeline for Eastern MA tomorrow.  This will provide us with some heavier downpours and they will mostly be focused in Eastern MA...there could be some brief poor drainage issues especially from leaf clogged drains.

Behind this system comes a shot of cold that will last 2 days...highs will be in the lower 50s both Friday and Saturday but it  will feel even colder than that with the gusty conditions.  The air will moderate again very quickly with 60 degrees returning on Sunday and then into the 60s early next week.
