NONSTOP WET WEATHER AROUND HERE, AS YOU KNOW. LOOK AT THE RAIN CALENDAR FOR THE MONTH OF MARCH, 51 DAYS WITH RAINFALL HERE AND A LOT OF THESE EVENTS WITH RAINFALL WELL OVER AN INCH. SO IT’S ANOTHER SOAKER THAT WE’RE DEALING WITH TODAY, UNFORTUNATELY. AND THE GROUND IS PRETTY SATURATED, WHICH IS WHY WE HAVE THIS FLOOD WATCH HERE. CENTRAL, EASTERN, MOST MASSACHUSETTS. THIS GOES THROUGH 6:00 TOMORROW MORNING. WE’RE TALKING ABOUT 1 TO 3IN OF RAIN. AND TAKE A LOOK WHERE THE HIGHEST TOTALS ARE GOING TO BE. FOCUS CLOSER TO THE COASTLINE AND ESPECIALLY IN SOUTHEASTERN MASSACHUSETTS. THAT’S WHERE WE COULD SEE THOSE AMOUNTS GETTING CLOSER TO THREE INCHES. BUT THIS IS GOING TO BE RAIN FOR EVERYONE. IT’S OUT THERE NOW. IT’S GOING TO CONTINUE INTO TONIGHT. SO WE’RE GOING TO BE WATCHING OUR STREETS FOR FLOODING RIVERS THAT WILL BE RISING BASEMENTS THAT COULD FLOOD HOPEFULLY. CHECK YOUR SUMP PUMP. AND IT IS IN WORKING ORDER OUT THERE THIS MORNING BECAUSE LOOK AT THIS PLUME HERE OF MOISTURE. THIS WATER HOSE HERE COMING UP OUT OF CONNECTICUT, LIFTING RIGHT UP THROUGH CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS RIGHT NOW, WORCESTER COUNTY IN SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE. THIS IS WHERE THE RAIN IS HEAVIEST AT THE MOMENT. HERE AS YOU GO JUST WEST OF WORCESTER FROM SOUTHBRIDGE, RIGHT ON UP TO LEOMINSTER. AND THIS IS ALL LIFTING NORTHWARD HERE, BUT GOING TO BE SLIDING EASTWARD SO RAIN WILL GET HEAVIER. METRO WEST INTO THE BOSTON AREA THIS MORNING. IT’S PRETTY STEADY NOW, AND IT’S MORE SCATTERED AS YOU GET TOWARD THE SOUTH SHORE OR THE SOUTH COAST AND THE CAPE. BUT YOU TWO ARE GOING TO SEE THAT RAIN FILL IN FRONT IS SLOW MOVING, ALMOST STALLED OUT OVER OUR AREA, AND THERE’S A NEW WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPING DOWN HERE THAT’S GOING TO RIDE ON IN. AND THAT’S WHAT’S GOING TO ENHANCE SOME OF THAT RAINFALL IN SOUTHEASTERN MASSACHUSETTS LATER TODAY. BEHIND THE FRONT, TEMPERATURES DO DROP A LITTLE BIT. AND THIS IS THE AIR MASS WE’RE GOING TO TAP INTO TOMORROW. IT’S COOLER. YES, BUT IT IS DRIER. SO WE’LL HANG ON TO 40S TO NEAR 50 DEGREES FOR HIGH TEMPERATURES TODAY. NOT TOO FAR FROM WHERE WE ARE THIS MORNING. YOU SEE, AT NOONTIME, STILL WET WINDS ARE RELATIVELY LIGHTER TODAY. THEY’RE UNDER TEN MILES PER HOUR OUT OF THE NORTH AND THE NORTHEAST. SO TAKE A LOOK HERE. THROUGH THE MORNING COMMUTE, THE RAIN IS COMING DOWN. IT’S GOING TO BE PRODUCING SOME PONDING AND POOLING OF THE WATER ON THE ROADS. OBVIOUSLY, RAIN CONTINUES FOR YOUR EVENING COMMUTE AND LOOK, IT’S GOING TO BE A LITTLE HEAVIER AROUND BOSTON, SOUTH SHORE AND THE CAPE. AND THIS IS WHERE IT CONTINUES TO BE HEAVY AT TIMES THROUGH THE NIGHT. NOW, AS WE GET PAST MIDNIGHT, THAT COLDER AIR IS GOING TO START TO WORK ON IN. SO THIS COULD ACTUALLY BRIEFLY FLIP ON OVER TO SNOW OUT THROUGH THE WORCESTER HILLS, ESPECIALLY BEFORE IT WRAPS UP AND IT IS GOING TO END FINALLY TOMORROW MORNING. LAST OF THE RAIN NEAR THE COAST RIGHT AROUND SUNRISE. AND THEN IT’S KICKING ON OUT AND WE WILL SEE SOME SUN DEVELOPING IN THE AFTERNOON. SO RAIN TONIGHT. SOME AREAS OF FOG 35 TO 40 DEGREES. TOMORROW THE RAIN ENDS IN THE MORNING. SOME SUN IN THE AFTERNOON BUT IT IS GOING TO BE BREEZY WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE 40S. YOU CAN SEE THOSE WINDS PICKING UP OUT OF THE NORTHWEST, GUSTING OVER 20 AND 30MPH. DRIER AIR, THOUGH, IS COMING AS WE GET INTO THE WEEKEND AND THE WEEKEND LOOKS GOOD. JUST WATCHING THIS LITTLE SYSTEM RIGHT HERE. THIS IS GOING TO RACE THROUGH DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS SATURDAY NIGHT AND COULD BRING A SPOTTY SHOWER. IT WILL BRING MORE CLOUDS FOR EASTER ON SUNDAY. THEN WE’LL HAVE A ROUND ON SATURDAY, BUT IT SHOULD BE A MAINLY DRY DAY AND WE’RE STILL IN THE LOWER 50S FOR THE WEEKEND. THAT’S WHERE WE START THE NEW MONTH OF APRIL. ON MONDAY, BEFORE WE GET BACK INTO SOME WET WEATHER TOWARD THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. BUT
