The second half of winter was one for the record books. I, for one, hope that we never see another month like February 2015 in Southeastern New England. The snow was remarkable, and the cold was unbearable. Here we are on the cusp of another winter, and, just like last year, there is no sign […]
There will be a nice warm-up for Thanksgiving and Black Friday. Highs will be in the mid 50s on Thursday and close to 60 on Friday. Scattered showers are possible on Saturday as a cold front passes. The best chance of rain is before 2 pm. It does not look like a widespread soaking. Cooler […]
It will be an unusually quiet weather pattern in the Eastern United States during Thanksgiving week. That’s great news for travelers, and the weather should be nice for Thanksgiving day high school football games throughout New England. A storm off the East Coast late in the weekend and early next week will not be a […]
A quick cold shot this weekend will be replaced by more mild weather through next week. There will be a nice stretch from Sunday afternoon through at least Wednesday. Highs will get close to 60 again by midweek. Lows will be in the 40s, and the average daily temperature should be nearly 10° above normal for […]
Sometimes the monthly summary is not an accurate snapshot of what the weather was like for that month. For instance, this October will go in the books with about 65% of the normal precipitation in the Providence area. However, 75% of the days were dry, and more than half the monthly rainfall happened with the […]
The weather pattern has been fairly predictable for the past couple of weeks. Here’s hoping it stays that way through the winter! Rain is expected late Wednesday into early Thursday as a cold front combines with leftover rain from Patricia heading into the Northeast. It looks like the heaviest rain will be west of RI […]
A mainly dry pattern will continue through the middle of next week. The best chance of a few showers between now and then is 6am-12pm on Sunday, but it does not look like a soaking rain. It will be seasonable Monday through Wednesday. A cold front moving through the northern states will scoop up some […]
A nice midweek warm-up is following the coldest weather of the season so far. It will stay relatively mild through Thursday. A few showers are possible Thursday late-afternoon and evening as a cold front passes. Highs will be in the mid 50s Friday and Saturday, with a gusty breeze likely Friday. The growing season ended […]
Columbus Day will be mostly sunny, breezy, and warm in Southeastern New England. Highs will be around 10° above normal for mid-October. It will stay relatively mild on Tuesday in spite of more clouds and possibly a few stray showers. Cooler weather arrives through the midweek. A cold shot is possible next weekend. It may […]
Through September 24, September 2015 is the third warmest in the Providence area since 1932. It will be seasonable this weekend before another slight warm-up early next week. With 1.11″ of rain, it currently sits as the 12th driest since 1905. Dry Septembers are not a stranger – last year was the 2nd driest on […]
