What a beautiful Monday on tap for New England. Our first taste of spring weather is upon us. Temperatures pushing 60 F in southern New England will make for an excellent afternoon to play hooky.

Nary a cloud in the sky across much of New England Monday AM will give way to warm temperatures this afternoon. Far left of the loop above; the leading edge of clouds associated with the Wed/Thu weather maker are just entering the screen. Clouds move in during the late afternoon and stick with the region for much of the week.

Tuesday

Mostly cloudy with afternoon temperatures near 50 south & central; 40s further north. While cloudy, no precipitation is expected.

Wednesday

An area of low pressure lifting northward through the mid-west will cause Wednesday to be mostly cloudy with the occasional sprinkle south or flurry north. Afternoon temperatures in the 40s south and 30s north. Towards the end of the loop a secondary area of low pressure begins to form along the New Jersey coastline. While this would often times be a good set-up for snow, temperatures across southern and central New England are much too warm.

The Thursday AM commute will likely be impacted as the new low pressure system matures over southern New England. Heavier rain south and wet snow north will rule the morning.
