Weather: Warmer Weather Today
By Greg LawsonStaff Meteorologist
After a month of mostly below normal temperatures, we will enjoy somewhat above normal temperatures for today and tonight, as a large storm passes to our north in Canada. This track will keep us on the warm side of the storm and bring us a chance of some showers. Areas of the upper Midwest have experienced heavy snows, strong winds, and single digit temperatures on the cold side of this storm; for now we are lucky and will avoid that. On average in Boston, we expect just over one inch of snow during November. A fairly zonal (west-east) pattern has dominated the weather for North America over the last week or so; that has kept the weather from being too extreme here.
The cold front associated with the Canadian low will take its time to clear our coast; ripples will form along it over the mid-Atlantic region and slow its progress. This will leave clouds and a chance of a few showers here for Saturday; with slow clearing by Saturday night. By Sunday, we should be in a fairly strong northwesterly flow, bringing clearing and cooler weather.
Today: Mostly cloudy. Showers late. Southwest wind. High 56ºF (13ºC).
Tonight: Showers and cool. Low 43ºF (6ºC).
Saturday: Mostly cloudy, becoming colder. High 48ºF (9ºC).
Saturday Night: Clearing. Low 34ºF (2ºC).
Sunday: Mostly sunny. High 45ºF (7ºC).
Outlook for Monday: Fair weather with seasonable temperatures.
