MILD START TO THE WEEK
We’re off to a comfortable start. Sunrise temperature were near 40s degrees Monday morning. Partly cloudy skies passed through early with a front. Most rain evaporated before every reaching the ground. That means it will be another dry and warm day with concerns for brush fires. Plan on sunshine and highs around 60 degrees this afternoon.
The 1 PM high tide will produce areas of splashover and minor coastal flooding similar to the weekend.
LATE WEEK RAIN
Dry weather and sunny skies will continue through Tuesday and Wednesday.
The next system will arrive Wednesday night with much needed rainfall. Thursday is shaping up as the soggy day this week with early rainfall estimates around 1/2″-1″ (some western towns even higher!). Low pressure will linger nearby Friday and Saturday with mostly cloudy conditions and a few spotty showers possible each day. There may even be a little snow in the Berkshires, Green and White Mountains! This season’s rainfall is so far below average, even an inch of rain will not undo the drought.
