3/24/12 Here cometh the cold..

I know many of you are in shock this morning. Temperatures are hovering around normal this morning. Yes, this is what it is supposed to feel like at the end of March.
A flow off of the ocean will keep coastal temperatures lower. Inland areas over the CT River Valley will warm into the 60s. Rain showers are possible today in NH and VT.
Saturday across Boston will be mostly dry. A few showers are possible early over Vermont and New Hampshire. Then showers will move into Western Mass and CT later this evening. A brief shower may move through between 4 and 5 PM this afternoon in Boston.

As the area of Low pressure that is over the Ohio Valley moves to the east coast, it will get a little bit stronger and it will tap into the colder air that the Canadian High pressure has produced by Monday and Tuesday.
The weather pattern across the Northeast has changed with an area of High pressure from Canada taking over. The flow is allowing air to flow in from the north instead of the Bermuda high, which brings air in from the south. An area of weakening low pressure will bring rain showers late on Saturday and Sunday. 
A cold snap (Which is actually normal for this time of year) will occur on Monday and Tuesday. Nighttime lows will drop into the 20s and 30s across Mass and into the teens in NH, VT and Maine. Expect daytime highs in the 40s.
The cold spell t will drop temperatures into the 20s overnight both Monday and Tuesday. Even though it is early, the 80 degree temperatures of last week have brought out many buds, flowers and plants. Some protection of this vegetation may need to be taken.
