Good morning folks, just to remind folks that miss it, after 14 years of daily reporting through all of our storms all years round, I am stepping away for a reporting break over the coming week through the following weekend. I may poke my head in one or twice for any notable or impactful weather events in my absence, but those would be brief evening reports, most likely. Our weather does look fairly tranquil during my impending pause, so I’m glad for that.

Good morning folks, there’s not much to report in the weather department other than a warmth and humidity spike for tomorrow / Friday with dewpoints in the 60s and high temps around 80º for some, followed by cooling this weekend and the passage of two cold fronts, the second of which may help support lows late Monday night down into the 30s (upper 20s for SVT?) and our first frost of 2026.

Good morning folks, we’ve got plenty of fair weather ahead best I can tell, and while I’m here, I am going to start to mention over the next few days that after almost 14 years of daily reporting save for several fair weather days a year, I am going to be taking a week-long break starting this weekend. As for our weather, we’re warming the rest of this week, peaking Friday with some folks hitting 80º with a chance at first frost by this coming Tuesday night!

Good morning folks, our multi-day nor’easter and rainstorm is behind us after leaving 1-4” of rain across the region for most locations with a bit less in far western areas, and a bit more in far eastern areas. Now what? We dry out today with increasing sunshine and decreasing cloudiness followed by warming temps through the rest of the week before some potentially unsettled weather on Friday and/or Sunday.

Good evening everybody, everything with this storm over the past two days has been going along as expected rainfall totals topping out into the 1-4” range with some sub-1” amounts in western areas, and some 4”+ amounts in eastern areas. Showers have been steadier in parts of the valley this afternoon, but our storm is on the move and radar echoes are breaking up slowly.

Good morning folks, we’re waking up and moving into one more showery day as our storm continues to weaken to the east of the NJ coastline. It’s positioned over the open water now, and will track east-northeast today toward the Cape and Gulf of Maine while directing periods of ocean-enhanced rainfall northwest into the greater WMass region today as it comes east with showers ending later tonight and sunshine arriving later tomorrow!

Good afternoon everybody, we’ve definitely added to the rain totals for today… but wait! There’s more (coming)! Not only will we see scattered showers tracking east-southeast to west-northwest through parts of our region this evening and first part of tonight, but a likely-heavier round of rain is set to wetten our Earthly surfaces during the Monday morning commute as our weakening storm exits stage right by Monday night.

Good morning folks, as of this morning we have outages around 2500 in WMass/CMass combined, and about 10,000 still in northern CT. While the worst of the wind is behind us, we’ll still be dealing with periods of rain mixed with dry or drizzly lulls at times. Some folks will be raining pretty hard, others little or none, and it should be like that today, tonight and tomorrow, ending by tomorrow night before we can get some fair weather in here by mid-week… into the details we jump!

Good afternoon everybody, we’ve seen thunderstorms and plenty of rainfall in northern CT and along the MA/CT border and in other areas, but despite some periods of rainfall earlier, much of WMass has been sitting under a persistent subsidence zone (i.e. sinking air that has developed between heavier bands of rain, oriented east to west, which has totally dried out the rain shield over parts of WMass).

Good morning folks, well we’ve got some showers and breezes rolling into the greater WMass region from east to west through the region this morning, as expected. Our ocean nor’easter has formed to our south, come north today, pulled west tomorrow, and then eject northeast Monday for 3 days of showery and gusty periods. It’s steady as we go at this point, definitely not a blockbuster for us here in inland areas, though the rain and wind should peak later tonight into Sunday morning with pockets of heavy rain and stronger gusts.

Good evening folks, our storm’s development is well underway, and it’s already doing its first north-northwesterly hook with the potential for not one but two loop-de-loops before it’s drawn westward into the southern NJ coast, stalls for a bit later Sunday and then ejects northeast through far southern New England on Monday – a 3-day event, which is a rarity. Let’s dive into the latest details.

Good morning folks, we have a varied temperature profile across the region with temps in the mid 30s on up into the mid 50s, in some cases only 10 miles apart! We do have cold sinks where colder air pools, so that’s no doubt part of it, and we’re breezy already this morning as the pressure gradient continues to keep the air moving from high pressure to low pressure, which I learned from Meteorologist Tim Kelley, who I’ve looked up to for decades. Our weekend nor’easter has formed to south, so let’s jump into the AM update!

Good afternoon folks, as I sit here and ponder the yonder (10 points to whoever gets that reference) what makes this storm notable isn’t that it could dump 1-3”+ of rainfall and produce northeast gusts of 30-50mph at times — we’ve seen that before, and we know what’s like to experience a solid, impactful New England Autumn rainstorm capable of some notable but not unsurvivable weather hazards.

Good morning folks, we’ve got one more nice day ahead with mostly sunny skies expected along with easterly gusts up to 20-35mph at times today as the pressure gradient between our high north and developing ocean low south squeezes and steepens, producing easterly flow into the region. A multi-day moderately-potent (for the WMass region) nor’easter is on the way for our weekend, winding down Monday, with moderate to heavy rain at times, northeasterly gusts up to 40mph or so, elevated areas of isolated outages, areas of leaf-down which can cause ponding of roads and slippery patches, and a general stormy Fall feel so let’s jump into the details.
