Happy Mother’s Day!

Temperatures will run well below average for most of the week ahead, and while there’s finally some improvement in the wind department, it’s definitely not going to feel like mid-May for several more days. We’re looking at mainly dry conditions overall with just ONE meaningful rain chance in the week ahead. We’ll also update our latest drought status, talk about why lawns across Southern New England are suddenly growing like crazy, and why now is definitely NOT the week to skip mowing the grass.

Plus… daylight continues piling up fast, sunsets keep pushing later, and we’re quietly approaching one of the most beautiful stretches of the entire year around the South Shore.

Temperatures are set to run well below average for late April, and yeah… it’s going to feel like it too. But there’s a flip side, we finally start drying things out, as a much quieter, drier pattern begins to take hold across southern New England.

We’re also watching the subtle seasonal shift, daylight is still increasing, but the big gains are now behind us. We’re adding minutes, just not at that rapid March pace anymore… still counts though.

We’ll also check in on something that continues to matter more than it should this time of year, our ongoing drought status and how this recent stretch of weather is (or isn’t) helping.

And a great seasonal question: When is Boston’s average last freeze? The answer might surprise you and it matters more than ever as we head deeper into spring planting season.

🌦️ The final full week of winter is here… but winter isn’t going quietly.

A significant warm-up kicks off the week, and the big melt is officially underway across Southern New England. Snowbanks will shrink, puddles will grow, and it will finally feel a little like spring.

But don’t pack away the shovel just yet.

❄️ Winter is not finished.

A few systems moving through this week could bring another round of rain… and possibly some snow before the season officially changes.

Daylight Saving Time begins, giving us those longer evenings we’ve been waiting for. More daylight, a changing pattern, and the atmosphere beginning its seasonal transition.

And we’ll also take a look at something important as we head toward spring:

🌎 What’s the drought situation across the region right now?

Has winter precipitation helped? Or are we still running a deficit?

We’ll break it all down: the melt, the pattern, the daylight change, and your full weekly weather preview.

🚨❄️ THE BLIZZARD OF ’26 RECAP IS HERE! ❄️🚨

Scituate just lived through a storm that will be talked about for YEARS and we’re breaking it all down.

How strong was it?

How historic was it?

And what actually makes a blizzard… a blizzard?

As we flip the calendar to March and welcome Meteorological Spring, winter clearly didn’t get the memo. Temperatures stay below average most of the week, and we’ll talk about whether this cold is here to linger or finally loosen its grip.

🌬️ We’ll revisit:

  • The wind.
  • The snowfall totals.
  • The visibility criteria.
  • And why blizzard warnings aren’t just about snow totals.

⏰ Plus Daylight Saving Time is coming up!

Longer evenings are on the way… but are we done with winter’s bite?

Temperatures are on the move this week and not quietly. We’re stepping into a much more active and unsettled pattern across southern New England, with multiple chances for precipitation and plenty to watch as the atmosphere keeps shifting gears. That means one big focus right now: ice safety. Changing temperatures and variable conditions can make ice incredibly unpredictable, so awareness and smart decision-making are key as we head deeper into February.

At the same time, something powerful is happening above us. The Sun is climbing higher, and daylight is increasing in bigger and brighter chunks. You can feel it. The angle of the Sun continues to rise, the daylight stretches longer, and even with storms in the mix, the seasonal transition is underway. What does that mean for temperatures, snowpack, and the weeks ahead? We’re breaking it all down with the Weekly Weather Preview — Episode #231 of Obsessed with the Weather!

We’re heading into a much different weather pattern this week — a clear shift toward milder air with very few opportunities for precipitation. The focus now turns to ice dams, not snowstorms. Meanwhile, daylight is increasing fast, and the sun is starting to make its presence felt.

So just how cold has February really been in the past? And what does “the sun always wins” actually mean as we move deeper into late winter?

We’ve finally settled into a true New England winter. Cold air has been the dominant story, with temperatures running well below average, but there’s a subtle shift ahead as we finally sneak back above freezing at times this week. Daylight is making noticeable gains now, adding minutes each day and offering a reminder that the seasonal corner has been turned—even if it doesn’t feel like it yet.

Precipitation chances are limited, making this a relatively quiet stretch of weather, but there’s still plenty to break down. We’ll also take a quick mental escape to a tropical location while the bitter cold lingers here at home.

❄️ Astronomical Winter has officially arrived here in Scituate! ❄️

The darkest stretch of the year is behind us, and starting this week, we slowly but surely begin gaining back daylight, just a little more sunshine each day.🌅

We’ll break down what astronomical winter really means, how long it lasts, and why the sun’s angle is finally on the upswing even as the cold tightens its grip. Spoiler alert: winter still has plenty to say.

🌬️ Wind is the headline this week, with blustery conditions making it feel even colder than it already is. Temperatures continue to trend well below average, reinforcing that true winter pattern across Southern New England.

🎄 Of course, we’ll zero in on the all-important Christmas Day forecast, what to expect if you’re traveling, heading out for a walk, or just trying to plan your holiday.

The good news? ⛅ No big storms on the horizon right now, a relatively quiet stretch on the precipitation front, even if it’s a cold and windy one.

⏳ Plus, we’ll answer a classic seasonal question: just how long does astronomical winter last anyway?

Get ready, folks, this week’s forecast is flipping the script! Temperatures will tumble well below average, and by late week, the far-reaching effects of Hurricane Erin could make things even more interesting. Spoiler alert: it’s not shaping up to be your classic beach week.

We’ll investigate why, check in on our latest drought status, and discuss the steady march of summer’s end as we continue to lose precious daylight each evening.

Plus — this week’s weather quiz concerns one of nature’s most electrifying shows: thunderstorms.

🎙️ Episode #201 – The Summer Switch-Up!

Welcome back, everyone — Obsessed With the Weather is back for Episode #201, and we’ve got a big week ahead! After what feels like an endless stretch of gray skies and rain, we’re finally getting some good news: a significant warm-up is on the way, and dare we say... a Saturday with no rain in the forecast? We’ll break it all down for you.

Even more exciting? This Friday night marks a significant seasonal milestone: the official arrival of astronomical summer. That’s right — the summer solstice is upon us. And with it comes some of the most fascinating solar shifts of the year, including:

  • The longest stretch of daylight we’ll see all year in Scituate 🌞
  • The end of our earliest sunrises — so if you’ve been waking up to golden light at 5:06 AM, savor it while it lasts
  • The beginning of our latest sunsets, with the sun setting after 8:20 PM for the next several weeks 🌅

We’ll also dive into:

  • What is astronomical summer, and how does it differ from meteorological summer
  • Exactly how many hours and minutes of daylight we’ll experience on the solstice
  • Why this time of year feels so energizing — and what to expect from the changing rhythm of sunrises and sunsets moving forward

Of course, I’ll have your full hyperlocal forecast for June 16 through June 22, including which days are best for beach time, bike rides, or just catching a great Scituate sunset.

So grab your iced coffee, sunglasses, and curiosity — Episode #201 is packed with sunshine, science, and everything you need to stay one step ahead of the skies. Let’s get into it — next on Obsessed With the Weather.
