There has been rain, hail, and snow. And the breezy conditions are making it feel even colder than it is. I think its really cold. Its freezing. Im not used to it. Our cali people are not used to this weather. Too cold. Antoinette the storm fueled surf also causing extensive damage along the coast in ventura. The pier no match for mother natures destructive force. Wooden support beams on the side of the structure snapping sending chunks of splintered debris washing up on shore. My question is exactly how cold was it . You know those people in california, they think my dad will say grab a jacket. Its 60 outside. Danielle thats true. Theyre very spoiled on that side of the world. Weve been pretty spoiled over here. All that weather you were talking about too that weather system in the midwest in texas bringing is the Severe Weather. Thats headed our way, the we may actually get a couple of rumbles of thunder here on monday night if it sets up perfectly. I want to show you this right now. Its a powerful system. You can see rain showers and storms from minneapolis all the way back towards oklahoma and even texas now. And there is a cold side to this. Some snow even falling in parts on the backside of this of kansas. Now it is a warm frontal boundary that is headed our way. Right now were actually under the influence of a cold front. Its actually a backdoor cold front that is backing in at this point. And what it is doing is actually bringing in a lot of clouds for us today. So youre definitely waking up this morning with clouds around but its also going to hold our temperatures. Its going to drop our temperatures from yesterday because yesterday we were spoiled with 60 degrees in boston and 56 in worcester. Today going for a high of 50 in boston and 48 degrees in worcester. Thats about a 10degree temperature drop. Just to give you some perspective. We should be running around 42 degrees at this time of year. So, hey, well take too even i want to show you whats happening right now. Its currently 51 degrees in boston. 52 in plymouth. Look at nantucket checking in this morning at 53 degrees but cooler up through the Merrimack Valley in the 40s and even 30s in concord, New Hampshire. And 45 in orange. Now through the day today, temperatures really are going to hold, i think. Were in the upper 40s, low 50s, not really going anywhere. The reason were going to have the persistent winds out of the north and east shift to go the east anywhere from 510 miles an hour so it is going to keep our temperatures down and also keep in lowlevel clouds so anywhere from, say, 48 in worcester, to 50 in boston, to maybe 55 degrees on nantucket. That will the warmest spot on the map. Now for tonight its mostly cloudy. Temperatures dropping into the 30s and 40s. Again with an east leer wind and lowlevel clouds, we could get in some drizzle overnight into first thing tomorrow morning. So let me show you the timing on everything. Notice by monday morning we have a lot of clouds around. Future cast not necessarily indicating that well see some drizzle but i do think we could especially by our coastline. Once we get through the afternoon and the showers really start to fire up and into the evening and into the overnight. In fact, the overnight hour s is when things will really get going for us while most of you are sleeping. So rain chances on the way up to very high monday night into really early tuesday morning. And then it should wind down by tuesday late morning and everything should be good. When all is said and done were looking for a half an inch to rain. We could really use it because were down over ten inches for the year now in boston. Now behind this system were actually going to be pretty warm on tuesday morning. But through the afternoon, those temperatures are going to drop. And the reason why theyre going to drop is because those winds are going to pick up, turn to the north and west. Look, these are the wind gusts at 5 00. Upwards of 35 to 40 miles an so its very windy, brisk day on tuesday. And that does eventually bring in colder air, so much so that were in the 40s by wednesday and by next weekend were back into the 30s. It feels a lot more like wintertime. Frank and antoinette.

So temperatures today only warming into the upper 40s and low 50s for highs with cloudy skies again throughout the day. Same. Cloudy skies. 30s and 40s across the map. Now our next storm system is the west. Its the one that is bringing a lot of heavy rain and some texas. Yesterday they had some tornadoes there. East and will impact our weather beginning really tomorrow Late Afternoon into the overnight hours. So the rain chances really look low monday morning. I think you should skirt by okay. Maybe areas of patchy drizzle but once we get towards late monday afternoon and monday night thats when the rain really ramps up. Theb we could see a couple of embedded thunderstorms as temperatures start to warm associated with this warm front. So here is the whole idea with this. Today just socked in with the clouds. Were still cooler. Tomorrow a touch warmer. There comes that warm front with all that heavy rain coming through and bringing in milder air. On the backside of this on tuesday those winds really start to ramp up out of the north and west and blow anywhere from about 20 to 30 miles an hour sustained gusts to near 40. In terms of how much rain, probably a half an inch to an inch in most locations. We could really use it since were down over ten inches now for the year in boston and down so then behind us, we are really going to drop back on wednesday and even tuesday afternoon temperatures start to fall but these are your wednesday highs. Only in the mid 40s. This is what were experiencing this morning. This is what youre going to experience all day on wednesday. Its going to feel a little cooler too with those winds. Were pretty cool through the workweek. Thursday and friday another dose of some rain coming in pretty much thursday night into friday. And if it tapers off, their might be wet snow flakes mixing in at the tail end of this. Not accumulating though. We will turn much cooler by saturday. Frank and antoinette.

Antoinette medical specialists are recommending all babies born at the hospital this fall get antibiotics for 6 to 9 months. Frank for holiday shoppers, another day chance to get some great deals tomorrow. Its the third best sales day of the year. Monday with price points identical to black friday deals. Ebay to describe its best december deals but has picked up game day for the patriots and its a winwin. Either gronk plays or the texans have wasted time gameplanning for him. Gronk did make the trip to houston with the team but is still listed as questionable so itll be a gametime decision whether he plays. He only missed one game with a bone bruise and sprain to his right knee. So a return this soon is a bit unexpected, but he may be ready to give it a go. Hes a great player. I always wish we would have these guys out in everyone whether jewels or gronk but different guys are dealing with different things. Its part of football season.
