Discussion
The remarkable cold of the past weekend will give way to summer-like warmth at week’s end, but we have another cold air mass to go through before we get there. A cold front will cross the region today as low pressure deepens over New England. As a result, temperatures tonight and tomorrow night will fall back into the 30’s for overnight lows and frost will be possible by early Tuesday and again by early Wednesday. As another low pressure system approaches towards the end of the week, our temperatures will soar on both Friday and Saturday to near the 85 degree mark for highs and there will be a chance of showers and thunderstorms on both days.
