Send us Fan Mail Temperatures are set to run well below average for late April, and yeah… it’s going to feel like it too. But there’s a flip side, we finally start drying things out, as a much quieter, drier pattern begins to take hold across southern New England. We’re also watching the subtle seasonal shift, daylight is still increasing, but the big gains are now behind us. We’re adding minutes, just not at that rapid March pace anymore… still counts though. We’ll also check in on something that continues to matter more than it should this time of year, our ongoing drought status and how this recent stretch of weather is (or isn’t) helping.

Send us Fan Mail Temperatures are on the move this week and not quietly. We’re stepping into a much more active and unsettled pattern across southern New England, with multiple chances for precipitation and plenty to watch as the atmosphere keeps shifting gears. That means one big focus right now: ice safety. Changing temperatures and variable conditions can make ice incredibly unpredictable, so awareness and smart decision-making are key as we head deeper into February. At the same time, something powerful is happening above us. The Sun is climbing higher, and daylight is increasing in bigger and brighter chunks. You can feel it. The angle of the Sun continues to rise, the daylight stretches longer, and even with storms in the mix, the seasonal transition is underway. What does that mean for temperatures, snowpack, and the weeks ahead? We’re breaking it all down with the Weekly Weather Preview — Episode #231 of Obsessed with the Weather!  Enjoy!  Support the show

Send us Fan Mail We’re heading into a much different weather pattern this week — a clear shift toward milder air with very few opportunities for precipitation.

And what does “the sun always wins” actually mean as we move deeper into late winter? All of that — plus your Weekly Weather Preview — on Episode #230 of Obsessed with the Weather 🎙️🌞 Enjoy!  Support the show

Daylight is making noticeable gains now, adding minutes each day and offering a reminder that the seasonal corner has been turned—even if it doesn’t feel like it yet. Precipitation chances are limited, making this a relatively quiet stretch of weather, but there’s still plenty to break down. We’ll also take a quick mental escape to a tropical location while the bitter cold lingers here at home.
