5:16 pm
it's hard to fathom anything like that when the air masses have been fairly mild around the region. let's check it out. only the very first day was below average in terms of high temperature. otherwise, we've been above and we're averaging 5 1/2 warmer than normal hit. that's pretty significant. boston is at 44 now. do i want you to note a southerly wind. with that wind direction and the clouds that are over us it's not going to be an especially chilly night. temperatures won't drop that much from the readings we have now, because it is already out of the southeast or south across the region. 40's. far areas or distant areas north into the of. this either drizzle or a couple not early tonight but late morning. it could be a little damp for that morning commute tomorrow. maybe murky. you can see the clouds are over us now but when you add in that
5:17 pm
will lead to a bit of drizzle or a few showers scattered around the region around the time of that morning commute but tomorrow afternoon, just a little bit of brightening. we don't need full clearing that combined with the take us up into the 50s and even though it will turn cloudy overnight tomorrow night and early friday i think we have more in the way of sunshine. better clearing coming in for for the cape on friday afternoon. or touching 60 degrees on friday. the idea is that the mild weather is going to be sticking around beyond that. here's an idea of the high temperatures tomorrow. notice upper 50s are pretty common. even without too much sun, and ed showed you, as di a few minutes ago, the temperatures. here's another look at how warm it is over the continental united states. you see a 53 in pierre, south dakota, and bismarck. it's 54 degrees.
5:18 pm
with our weather coming from the west, we can't help but be mild and mild we will be. really, the entire seven-day forecast all have temperatures above the average throughout the entire time period. for tomorrow, you know there could be a little dampness. high around 60 degrees. saturday, also around 60. the interesting thing is that we are talking about temperatures that could be near record levels at times over the next few days. we have to go way out until monday when a system will approach from the west. we may run into a situation on showersta. either monday, monday night or on tuesday. turns cooler but not that much colder. maybe even one more temperature warm-up even after that. so i do see possibly something road but it's maybe like eight to 10 days and beyond.
