YOU GOT IT. THIS IS WHERE WE SHOULD BE. AND YOU KNOW WHAT? TODAY TEMPERATURES WERE NOT THAT BAD. YOU HAD TO WAIT A LITTLE WHILE FOR IT TO WARM UP OUT TO THE WEST. WE GOT A LITTLE MORE SUNSHINE. SO THAT’S WHY YOU HAD ORANGE AT 70? FITCHBURG AT 72. BUT OF COURSE, WITH THAT EXTRA HEAT OUT THERE, THAT’S WHERE THE STORMS WERE A LITTLE BIT STRONGER. AND THEN AS YOU GOT CLOSER AND CLOSER TO THE OCEAN, IT GOT COOLER AND COOLER, ESPECIALLY AS YOU LOOK TOWARD NANTUCKET AND THE ISLANDS.

I DON’T WANT TO SCARE. I MEAN, A SCARY MOVIE. YEAH, IT KIND OF LOOKS, BUT WE’VE HAD A REALLY BIG CHANGE IN THE LAST FEW HOURS. THESE ARE THE HIGH TEMPERATURES TODAY. NOW, IT WAS A BIT CLOUDY AND OF COURSE BREEZE OFF THE WATER. KEPT THINGS COOL AT THE CAPE, BUT HIGH TEMPERATURES INLAND WHERE WE GOT SOME SUNSHINE, GOT TO 70 DEGREES. NOW LOOK WHAT’S HAPPENED TO THE TEMPERATURES. THEY HAVE DROPPED LIKE A ROCK. THEY’RE INTO THE 40S RIGHT NOW. THAT IS A BIG TEMPERATURE SWING AS THAT COLD AIR COMES SWEEPING IN.

IT THAT WAY. AND A FEW MORE CLOUDS COMING IN AS WELL. I MEAN, TODAY ENDED UP BEING PRETTY NICE. WE HAD SOME RAIN THIS MORNING. MAYBE EVEN. YOU HEARD A RUMBLE OF THUNDER OUT OF THE WHOLE THING. THEN IT KIND OF WENT INTO THAT PAUSE THAT WE’VE HAD. WE’VE CLEARED THE SKIES AWAY AND THE TEMPERATURE ALLOWED TO WARM UP. WE GOT ABOVE AVERAGE 64 DEGREES. THE AVERAGE HIGH THIS TIME OF YEAR IS ABOUT 56 DEGREES. SO YOU SEE THE HIGH TEMPERATURES TODAY.

COMING FROM A GUY WHO CAN’T COLOR WITHIN THE LINES. ALL RIGHT, LET ME SHOW YOU WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN. YOU KNOW, WE’VE GOT RAIN COMING IN HERE TOMORROW, AND THEN WE GO INTO A DRY SPELL, AND THE NEXT CHANCE FOR RAIN ISN’T UNTIL SATURDAY. SO WE GET AT LEAST A FEW DRY DAYS. WE HAVEN’T HAD MANY OF THOSE THIS MONTH. IT’S BEEN A VERY WET MONTH FOR US SO FAR. AND YOU LOOK AT THE HIGH TEMPERATURE, HIGH TEMPERATURE ON SATURDAY WAS ONLY 39 DEGREES.
