High wind warnings in Massachusetts as winter storm comes to New England.
Taking it from the top, the early part of the day is the least bothersome. Occasional bouts of rain will fly through on a very fast-moving jet stream. If you have a chance, gaze up at the clouds and watch how quickly they cross the sky. Wind speeds late day will peak near 100 mph at about 5,000 feet!From 6 to 9 p.m., our strongest winds will hit along with our heaviest rain . Gusts will top 50 mph, especially in higher elevations and along the coast, Capes and Islands.
Obviously, this is cumulative rain over the entire day, but during the most intense part fast runoff may cause localized street or urban flooding. Streams will also rise quickly through the day.Temperatures will soar along with the wind. Tuesday night’s cold is still present in northern Massachusetts Wednesday morning, but by midday, the warmth will send it packing. At our projected high of 65, we’ll be three degrees shy of the record in Boston, but we certainly will be in unfamiliar territory.
Speaking of temperature swings, we’ll see the numbers come crashing down late Wednesday night as the cold rushes back in. We could see temps plummet nearly 30 degrees in a matter of hours as the front crosses. In addition, the winds will ramp down for a spell, then ramp back up as we near daybreak on Thursday.The weather settles down to finish the workweek. The weekend looks dry and quiet too. We’re expecting more showers to arrive early next week.
