Wet n Wild Weekend.....


...nope, I'm not talking about Water Country, I'm talking about our upcoming weather for the latter half of the holiday weekend. The storm system progged to develop and affect our area from Sunday into Monday is on schedule, with a period of heavy rain and strong winds possible, especially during the overnight on Sunday and into Monday morning. We could see upwards of three inches of rain from the storm, and coastal flooding remains a possibility as mentioned in previous postings.


A possible silver lining: if the storm center tracks right OVER us on Monday, we could see the rain lighten up and some breaks in cloudcover as we would be under the "dry slot" of the storm. Let's hope this scenario plays out so that the Boston Marathon isn't a complete washout.


Until then, the remainder of your Friday will feature mostly cloudy skies with a possible sprinkle or shower, with highs in the mid 40s. Saturday is the pick of the weekend, where temperatures will rebound to near seasonal levels with highs in the mid 50's and mostly sunny skies. The weather will turn downhill in a hurry for Sunday, and by Sunday evening it looks to be pretty nasty out there, continuing on through the overnight with some heavy windswept rains.


We'll have updates for you as the situation unfolds.


Wishing you all a great holiday weekend....
