The warmest by far weve had since weve been keeping records and january is arching above until too. We dont have the situation we sometimes have at this point in the winter. Its 28 degrees in boston now. The breeze is light out of the southwest, nine miles per hour. Temperatures a few degrees better but the wind being down makes these 20s easier to take. The skies have cleared in many teens for a little while but the clouds move in the morning and tomorrow could be warmer. Why colder north and south .

But well have the clouds tomorrow and the first of the at new york city but before dawn it overspreads the region. Some heavier bands of rain. Two things when the temperatures are marginal. One is intensity and elevation. You have the two, you might get a mix of snow. So reaching New Hampshire and also the mountains of vermont and maine. Could get accumulating snow but most of our area is likely to get rain. Might be a mix but i dont think there will be much accumulation in eastern massachusetts. It will clear by saturday night. There could be a little bit of snow, especially the worcester hits but most especially points north. Heres the story over the next seven days. Milder, about 40 tomorrow. Stormy, windy late. As for the patriots game, i think the storm is done. Temperatures in the 30s. Higher to start, lower to winds, 20 to 20 plus earlier in the game. Settling down later on. There could be a few snow squalls early monday then bitter cold takes over. Much more to tell you about at 7 00, see you then. Im meteorologist harvey leonard. Hi, again.
