It now appears that the storm will come more from the west, meaning that the jet stream will be different than previously thought. The jet stream is main mover of storms and air masses. The air will be coming more from the west, than the north-meaning a smaller storm, and warmer temps. If the the jet stream dips to (to form a u shape) , that means the storm would dip into the mid-Atlantic states and come up the coast. That would allow the storm to re-generate over the ocean, as cold air comes down from the north into the "u." However, now it appears that just a few showers will fall on Tuesday with temps in the 50's.
Weekend forecast:
Tonight: Drizzle and light showers until midnight, then rain. Some heaver showers may have embedded lightning. Fog may also form in certain areas. Temps holding steady, then rising to around 60.
Saturday: Starting off cloudy with a risk of a shower, then sunny. Windy. High 67. NW winds of 15-25 MPH with gusts to 35 MPH.
Saturday night: Clear with the wind diminishing. Lows around 45 Downtown to 42 in JP, to 35 in most suburbs. Frost is possible in the usual colder locations.
Sunday: Mostly sunny and a bit cooler. High 61. West wind of 10-25 MPH.
Sunday night: Clear, lows ranging from 42 in Boston to 34 outside the city. Frost is more likely than Saturday night, but not definite.
Monday: Mostly sunny, high 58. Cool NW wind.
Monday night: Clouding up with lows around 40.
US weather: A major arctic blast is occurring in the Plains and Rockies. Temps in Montana today did not make it out of the 20's, and lows were around 0! It should be windy and cold while the Pats play in Denver on Sunday, but not as cold as previous days with temps holding in the 40's. Snow showers and temps in the upper 20's is in the forecast for game 3 of the NLDS as the Colorado Rockies host the Phillies on Saturday night. A piece of the arctic air is coming this way, as the city of Boston may have its first frost late next week. However, temps will modify before some of the air mass gets here.
