After dealing with precipitation everyday for most of last week into this weekend, New England will be getting a break from rain and snow and freezing and sleet, at least through the middle of the week. There are no large-scale storms on tap this week. The coastal storm will continue to push away from New […]

A rare (for New England) wind chill warning has been issued for all of New England except for southern Connecticut, where a wind chill advisory is in effect. Northern Maine is under a blizzard warning for a potential ground blizzard. While New England sees a wind chill advisory or two a winter, a wind chill […]

The next storm up in this active streak will be a messy one on Thursday. This frontal system’s primary low will pass to New England’s north while a secondary, surface low passes near southern New England. This will yield a wintry mix of precipitation across New England with all precipitation types on the table at […]

A weaker, fast-moving storm will slide west to east near, or just to the south of, southern New England later today and into tonight. As it does so, it will lift a warm front toward the region. A cold front will also be dropping through New England today on the heels of a separate system […]

A rather extreme heat wave gripped New England for several days this June. This heat wave was the longest recorded heat wave in Hartford. Feels-like temperatures skyrocketed to around 110° in places as the air temperature reached into the upper 90s with dew points well into the 70s. Still, this heat wave came up short […]

Tim Dennis Jun 14, 2023 3 min read This week, I talk about New England’s stuck weather pattern. A pattern so stuck, there are no clear indications of when it will end. I also talk about Mt. Washington’s latest weather record. Prefer to read about New England’s stuck weather pattern? There’s a written version of […]

Tropical Storm Lee, a Cape Verde cyclone, has officially formed as it continues its west-northwest journey across the Atlantic Ocean. With a hot ocean and low wind shear, the storm has little in its way to strengthening over the course of the next week. So, what exactly is a Cape Verde hurricane? It’s pretty simple. […]

A frontal system will bring a period of light rain and snow showers to New England later Saturday into Sunday morning. Light accumulations of both rain (0.10-0.25″) and snow (1-3″ in mountains) are likely. This system’s cold front will slow down as it reaches New England’s coastline for Sunday into Sunday night. A wave of […]

Tropical Storm Debby has made a second landfall in South Carolina this morning. The storm will move inland and begin to accelerate up the east coast later Thursday into Friday. As Debby moves up the coast, it will interact with a trough moving out of the Great Lakes, eventually merging with that system’s cold front. […]

As a storm passes to New England’s south tomorrow morning (3/11), another storm will enter the west and move across the country. This storm looks to exit the east coast near the Carolinas. We are still far out and confidence remains shaky, but here is how things are trending today: The storm then moves up […]

Hurricane Lee side-swiped New England on Saturday. While the storm’s center stayed well offshore of most of New England, Lee’s sheer size sent strong winds, heavy rain and pounding surf toward the region. Lee made landfall over Long Island in Nova Scotia Saturday evening as a post-tropical (or extratropical) storm. This transition occurred while the […]
