When people ask me why I’ve lost so much hair, I give them one simple answer….”weather forecasting”. Yes, today is one of those hair pulling days forecasting New England weather. We are oh so lucky to have that dripping in moisture….gigantic refrigerator (at this time of year) called the Atlantic Ocean immediately to our east. The good ole Atlantic managed to take some of its low level moisture and spit it back at us during this morning in the form of a low to middle cloud deck that fouled up the supposedly mostly sunny day I forecast for today. Oh the joys of forecasting the weather in New England in the spring.
Fear not, however, some of Sunday (a misnomer…..”Sun”day) will be salvaged as the satellite loop does show that the low level moisture is eroding and some partial clearing will be possible by a little later this afternoon. This should allow temperatures to get up into the low 60’s today along the coast and into the middle to upper 60’s inland. We’ll take it.
