With brush fires burning in New England, any rain is welcome. Matt Noyes says we do have some on the way tonight, with highest amounts expected in Northern New England, but winds will also turn gusty the next two nights as the air changes in New England. Eventually, the new air will mean record-challenging high temperatures on Halloween Thursday before a cold front brings returning cool and dry fall air for the weekend. Matt has all the details in our video here, written summary below.
Brush fires have challenged local fire crews, especially on the North Shore, as dry conditions persist. The wind will increase overnight Tuesday and Wednesday night, though incoming showers will help.
Safety Note: Burn bans are in place in several communities, and it’s essential to avoid open burning and be mindful of any potential fire hazards.
The dry pattern continues for most of New England, with only light showers forecast midweek.
Meanwhile, significant snow is falling across the Rockies, with parts of Wyoming and Colorado expecting up to 18 inches. This Western snowfall indicates the colder air building in the nation’s midsection, though New England remains out of its reach for now.
Prepare for a warm Halloween, with temperatures nearing record highs.
After Halloween’s warmth and the cooler weekend, New England’s temperatures should moderate for the following week, bringing seasonable conditions to the region with highs generally in the 50s, though a return of some warmth to the 60s or even around 70 is likely next Wednesday.
