Good morning everybody, abundant sunshine with northwesterly gusts will rule our roost for the next couple of days before we turn rainy, and possibly sleety Wednesday night into Thursday with more unsettled weather late week possibly into the weekend, but before we dive into all of those weather details below, let’s check a note from our local and delicious sponsor, #TandemBagelCo, with a new location in West Springfield, MA.

Good morning People of The Golden West, no fog this morning! Hooray!
We’ve got a pair of beautiful days coming up, today being about 5 degrees milder than tomorrow, and both blustery, so engage in your typical chill-tamping clothing options as needed.
We can thank large, sprawling high pressure west of us for spreading these dry conditions into the region, as well as the gradient between high west, and low east, being the reason for our gusty winds today and tomorrow.
Highs today will reach the upper 40s to upper 50s from north to south (check your ZoneCast above), and lows will drop into the upper 20s to mid 30s with northwest winds gusting 25-35mph under mostly sunny skies today, with partly to mostly clear skies tonight and a bit less wind.
For Tuesday, highs will climb into the mid 40s to low 50s again with sunshine, and again with northwest winds gusting 25-35mph, with lows in the mid to upper 20s as wind slackens.

For Wednesday, any partly sunny skies early will give way to mostly cloudy skies with highs in the 40s, and a few showers possible by early evening.
A storm will be tracking into the Great Lakes and will spread a large precipitation shield with ample juice into our region.
At night, temps will fall into the low to mid 30s, and we could see periods of sleet form over parts of WMass, SVT and SWNH, possibly into northern Worcester County, too. We can’t rule out freezing rain patches, but it looks like a sleet/rain mix is most likely right now.
By morning, temps should come up and any sleet should change to rain, with a showery Thursday looking likely right now. Highs will reach the mid to upper 40s, and lows dropping into the mid to upper 30s with more showers.
On Friday, a secondary low might form and bring some showers into the region, but temps will come up with highs in the 50s.
The weekend looks mixed, with Saturday probably being the better of the two days, a bit milder, and highs either side of 50º with partly sunny to mostly cloudy skies.
For Sunday we’ll have to watch another coastal low to see if that bring some rain and/or snow, as temps will be cooler in the upper 30s to mid 40s, so stay tuned for updates on that piece.
Have a great day, and remember…

When 4% of my readers “water” my work with even $5 or 10/year, $2/month (or more if you’re able) I can remain in your service, and I’m 66% of the way to that goal.
My 2022 Member Drive ends this coming Sunday, and I’m confident with your help we’ll reach this reasonable goal. Thank you.
