New England's weather over the next several days will be mainly influenced by a rather zonal flow. Zonal flow (when the jet stream has a stronger west to east motion and lays flatter across the United States) tends to promote near average temperatures as deep troughing or ridging is absent. In this specific case, however, the Pacific-North American Index has been tilted positive. When the Pacific is the main influence in weather across the country, it leads to a milder flow a

With just about one week to go until Thanksgiving, here's a look at how weather patterns will be setting up for next week. It's been a generally active pattern as of late, though storms have generally been strengthening after exiting New England, leading to a mostly low-impact stretch. Heading into early next week, general ridging is expected to shift eastward, bringing some milder conditions compared to this week. The active, yet low-impact stretch of weather may also contin

This week will start off windy and snowy (for the mountains). Things will gradually calm down for the middle of the week. The next organized system looks to approach for Friday, but it looks pretty low-impact at this time. MONDAY Similar to last week, this week will be starting off with broad cyclonic flow over New England. This comes as New England's weekend storm has slowed down and strengthened near Nova Scotia this morning. This will bring another chilly day with persiste

New England's next system will approach later today and into tomorrow. This will be a frontal system with a primary low lifting well north of New England. A secondary low is poised to lift through northern New England, making this system an inside runner. Winter weather advisories are in effect for much of northern New England away from the coast. Winter storm watches across northern Maine have been downgraded to winter weather advisories. Trends over the past couple days hav

After brief surface ridging between systems on Friday and Saturday, New England's next system will approach later Saturday and Sunday. This will be a frontal system with a primary low lifting well north of New England. A secondary low is poised to lift through northern New England, making this system an inside runner. This will lift a warm front into New England, drawing milder air into the region and preventing a widespread snowfall across a large swath of the region. Trends

A large upper-level low pressure system continues to sit around Canada's Hudson Bay. This has rotated yet another shortwave through New England. A clipper-like system will slowly push through northern New England through the day today, bringing continued snow showers and flurries across the north. With generally warming temperatures today, central and southern New England may be more apt to see brief rain showers rather than the flurries that have been seen over the past coup

A large upper-level low pressure system continues to sit around Canada's Hudson Bay. This will continue to rotate shortwaves through New England over the next couple days. Two distinct clipper-like systems will slowly push through New England over the next two days, bringing continued snow showers across the north and the potential for flurries in central and southern New England. Snow showers will be most widespread this morning and this evening, with much more isolated and

New England will become more centered within a deep trough on Tuesday. This will bring a shot of Arctic air through the east. This blast of air is more reminiscent of a mid-winter Arctic blast than an early-season cold front. Tuesday will see temperatures bottom out, with highs struggling to break out of the 30s region-wide. The northern tier of New England will likely get locked into the 20s to low 30s for highs. This will come as temperatures won't rise much from morning lo

Troughing will once again dominate this week for New England, bringing chilly temperatures and a persistent breeze. Some snow and rain showers will be possible throughout the week as well, though nothing too organized. MONDAY A secondary area of low pressure from yesterday's system has formed and will be moving northeast across coastal New England through the day today. This will allow for another round of showers to develop today, along with some gusty winds. Overall, this s

Thermal profiles today will continue to allow for snow or a wintry mix across Vermont and northern New Hampshire through this morning and into the early afternoon. This will come as these areas will remain on the north side of a warm front lifting toward New England today. This comes as a system in the Ohio Valley continues to lift northeast within a deep trough over the eastern United States. This setup will allow for warm air advection to occur through the day. This will al

As of this morning, the latest low pressure system to bring New England showers is sitting just north of the region. This has lifted a warm front through the region. This has placed much of New England in the warm sector, allowing for a mild start to the day for all but northern Maine (where the warm front hasn't reached as of mid-Saturday morning). As the system to the north exits, it will drag a cold front across the region, but the cool-down will be gradual through the day

New England's potent Alberta Clipper is swiftly moving away. As of writing this morning, the storm's center is already around Nova Scotia. A secondary cold front will drop through New England over the course of the morning and early afternoon, which may help promote some additional mountain snow showers. Other than that, high pressure is quickly racing eastward, which will help keep the rest of New England dry today. Pressure rises of up to 8mb this morning show the speed at

New England's next system will dive through New England later Wednesday into Thursday morning. Overall, Wednesday and Thursday's setup will be pretty similar to Monday and Tuesday. A big difference will be that it will be a notch cooler. Wednesday afternoon, a strengthening Alberta Clipper will dive into northern New England, bringing the next round of showers and wind. These will move west to east from the evening through the early morning hours. Clouds from this system will

New England's gradual descent into winter continues as we move into November. Average high temperatures drop another 10-15 degrees from November 1st to the 30th. November can end up feeling a lot like fall or a lot like winter in New England. This year, the steady transition to winter will likely be felt. Summary: This November is starting off active with pretty seasonable temperatures. A ridge-in-the-west-trough-in-the-east pattern will take hold heading toward the middle of

New England remains in an active pattern with multiple systems set to move through this week. Zonal Flow will be in place, so these systems will generally be quick-moving and low-impact. With all these systems moving through, it will be a breezy week as well. MONDAY & TUESDAY A southerly flow ahead of an approaching system will allow for a decent warm-up today after a pretty cold start. Surface high pressure will slide away from New England through the day today as a cold fro

There's a lot that goes into trying to determine who will get what during a winter storm in New England. Here's a breakdown of the most important factors. THE THREE BASIC STORM TRACKS While there are many facets to winter weather in New England, nearly all storm systems can be boiled down to three basic tracks. The track of a storm system through the region can often play the biggest role in the precipitation type; where in New England it will rain, where it will snow and whe

New England's pre-Halloween storm is now well north of New England. The system has rapidly strengthened as it continues to move into the Canadian Maritimes. The storm's central pressure has dropped into the low 970 millibar range, indicating a strong system. This low pressure to the north and surface high pressure to the southwest will continue to support breezy conditions today, though the gradient between the two will not be as tight, so gusts today will be lesser than yest

New England's incoming storm has formed and is currently across the southeast. The system's primary low will take an interior track across the northeast. A secondary, coastal low still form on this system’s triple point (where a warm, cold and occluded front meet). This secondary low has trended weaker over the past few days, with the interior low remaining the primary low pressure system. This will result in a period of windswept rain across much of the region. Initial showe

Today will be the driest day with the most sun for most of New England (the exception will be coastal areas of southern New England). A storm system will pass well south of New England later Tuesday into Wednesday. The rather strong high pressure to the north of New England and the overall weak nature of this storm will keep it well offshore of the region. Despite its offshore track, low-level northeast flow will likely lead to a cloud cover developing over eastern areas of N
