Drying Out New Year’s Eve. Sun to Late Rain New Year’s Day…

 

Synopsis:

Expect conditions to dry out New Year’s Eve. At the stroke of midnight it will be chilly, but precipitation free with readings in the 30s to around 40º under partly cloudy skies.

High pressure will move into New England New Year’s Day. This will result in a delay in the rain for the first day of 2021.  Sun will greet us in the morning on January 1st, but clouds will increase and thicken during the day. A warm front will move toward the region introducing the chance of rain and a bit of sleet (North and West) later New Year’s Day (thinking from 3-6pm). The rain will continue into the night and into the first part of Saturday. The sun should return during the day Saturday and it will be mild.

Another low pressure system will develop along the coast on Sunday. The potential continues to increase for a period of rain, sleet and wet snow. The frozen precipitation is more likely North and West. Any snow that potentially may accumulate, will occur over the higher elevations. I will fine tune any possible amounts by Friday afternoon’s update.

The beginning of the work and school week looks tranquil as low pressure moves to the Canadian Maritimes and high pressure settles in over the central part of the nation. Readings will be just above average under a mix of sun and clouds.

Stay Tuned.

Keep it here for a no nonsense, no hype forecast.

Happy New Year to all of my followers!  May 2021 bring you peace, happiness and a sense of normalcy. 

Tonight:

Becoming partly cloudy and colder.. Lows around freezing in urban areas, the upper teens and 20s inland. Northwest to North winds at 5-10mph.

New Year’s Day:

Morning sun, otherwise thickening clouds with late afternoon rain developing. Most of the daylight hours will be dry. A mix of sleet and freezing rain is possible inland through early evening. Highs around 40º.

Saturday:

Morning showers, otherwise becoming partly sunny. Mild. Highs in the mid 50s.

Sunday:

Cloudy with a chance of rain, a mix and wet snow (depending on location). Highs in the lower to mid 40s, 30s inland.

Monday:

Clouds to sun. Highs in the mid 40s.

Tuesday:

Partly sunny. Highs in the lower to mid 40s.

Period of Rain This Morning. Drier Aftn…

 

Synopsis:

Morning rain will give way to a cloudy and drier afternoon as a cool front moves offshore. At the stroke of midnight New Year’s Eve it will be chilly but precipitation free with readings in the 30s to around 40º.

High pressure will move into New England New Year’s Day. This will result in a delay in the rain for the first day of 2021.  Sun will greet us in the morning on January 1st, but clouds will increase and thicken during the day. A warm front will move toward the region introducing the chance of rain and a bit of sleet (North and West) later New Year’s Day (thinking from 3-6pm). The rain will continue into the night and into the first part of Saturday. The sun should return during the day Saturday and it will be mild.

Another low pressure system will develop along the coast on Sunday. The potential is there for a period of rain. A mix is possible North and West. There is no Arctic high to work with this low. So it looks mainly wet and not white. Any snow that potentially may accumulate, will occur over the higher elevations. Again, this looks to be minor.

Stay Tuned.

Keep it here for a no nonsense, no hype forecast.

New Year’s Eve:

A period of morning rain, otherwise remaining mostly cloudy. Highs in the mid 40s. West to Northwest winds at 5-10mph.

Tonight:

Mostly clear and colder.. Lows around 30º in urban areas, the upper teens and 20s inland. Northwest to North winds at 5-10mph.

New Year’s Day:

Morning sun, otherwise thickening clouds with late afternoon rain developing. Most of the daylight hours will be dry. A mix of sleet and freezing rain is possible inland through early evening. Highs around 40º.

Saturday:

Morning showers, otherwise becoming partly sunny. Mild. Highs in the lower to mid 50s.

Sunday:

Mostly cloudy with a period of rain. A mix of rain and snow is possible inland. Highs in the lower to mid 40s, 30s inland.

Monday:

Clouds to sun. Highs in the mid 40s.

Clouds & Sun. Seasonal Wednesday…

 

Synopsis:

High pressure will move off the coast today (map above). Morning clouds and possibly a flurry in spots will give way to partly sunny skies. Readings will be seasonal-in the upper 30s.

Clouds will thicken tonight as a cool front approaches. Showers are possible before sunrise. Readings won’t be as cold as recent nights.

Early showers Thursday will give way to some sun as the front moves offshore. At the stroke of midnight New Year’s Eve it will be chilly but precipitation free. This break in the showers is the result of high pressure nosing in from Eastern Canada. New Year’s Day looks to start off with a bit of sun, but clouds will increase and thicken during the day. A warm front will move toward the region introducing the chance of rain and a bit of sleet later New Year’s Day. The rain will continue into the night and into the first part of Saturday. The sun should return during the day Saturday and it will be mild.

Another low pressure system may develop along the coast on Sunday. The potential is there for a period of rain. A mix is possible North and West. There is no Arctic high to work with this low. So it looks mainly wet and not white.

Cold Push Into Tuesday, Despite the Sun…

 

Synopsis:

Scattered morning snow showers are possible with a push of colder air today, otherwise skies will be mainly sunny. The wind will add a bite. Readings will hover in the upper 30s. The windchill will make it feel more like freezing as cold high pressure moves in from the Northwest.

Tonight will be the coldest night we’ve seen in days with all area temperatures falling well below freezing.

The next chance of precipitation will come our way for the New Year’s holiday. A complex low with its associated fronts will move to the Eastern Seaboard. The precipitation will come in two rounds. The first round is with an approaching cool front on New Year’s Eve day with scattered showers (nothing to heavy or steady). It will dry out later in the day (some sun) and at the stroke of midnight it will be cold but precipitation free. This break in the showers is the result of high pressure nosing in from Eastern Canada. New Year’s Day looks to start off with a bit of sun, but clouds will increase and thicken during the day. A warm front will move toward the region introducing the chance of rain and a bit of sleet later New Year’s Day. The rain will continue into the night and into the first part of Saturday. The sun should return during the day Saturday and it will be mild.

Stay Tuned.

The next chance of precipitation will be about the time we ring in the new year.
