1/26- 600th post- The Weather falls asleep

Good Tuesday all-

After the excitement of a surprise blizzard last weekend, the weather has fallen entirely asleep- we expect slightly above average temperatures and dry conditions for most of the next six days. The one exception could be tonight, where scattered patches of wintry mix could snarl up the roads a small amount for the morning commute tomorrow, but I do not expect any impacts on schools.

There's a coastal storm on Friday...but it looks like a rather comfortable miss for our area...unless you believe the Canadian, but even that is a miss (though it's much closer, and a glancing blow for Cape Cod and the Islands). I wouldn't worry too much about it at this time, but if something changes you'll know (I'd put the odds of a big snowstorm in the 5-10% range at this time)

Otherwise, enjoy your day!

Today in weather history- January 26, 1978- A monster blizzard clobbers the midwestern US, with Ohio and Michigan particularly hard hit, experiencing 20-40" of snow, twenty-foot drifts and 100(!)mph wind gusts.
