For The Rest Of This Afternoon & Tonight: This is going to be a 5-star week in terms of weather across all of Western and Central Mass thanks to lots of sunshine, seasonable temperatures, low humidity and no rain at all.


Partly sunny skies can be expected throughout the rest of this afternoon. Temperatures will be around 65 Degrees. Winds will be West at 15 to 20 mph with gusts to 30 mph.


Clear skies can be expected during tonight. It is possible that there could be some isolated frost in some areas, especially in low-lying locations, valley locations or more sheltered locations. Low temperatures tonight will be around 35 Degrees. Winds will be West at 10 to 20 mph.


Tuesday & Wednesday: A strong high pressure system is expected to control the weather throughout all of Tuesday and all of Wednesday.


Tuesday is expected to be sunny with high temperatures between 55 and 60 Degrees. Winds will be West at 10 to 20 mph with gusts to 30 mph.


Clear skies are expected on Tuesday night & I do think that we may see scattered frost across the entire area. Low temperatures will be around 35 Degrees. Winds will be West at 5 to 10 mph.


Lots of sunshine can be expected throughout the day on Wednesday. High temperatures will be between 60 and 65 Degrees. Winds will be Southwest at 10 to 20 mph.


Thursday & Friday: That high pressure system will continue to control the weather throughout Thursday and Friday. This will continue the very nice weather across the region.


Thursday looks partly sunny with high temperatures between 70 and 75 Degrees.


Friday is expected to be sunny with high temperatures near 65 Degrees.

 
 
 

I wanted to start this post by thanking each and every one of you for following my weather forecasts & weather updates here at Route 20 Weather. The support you've shown has been beyond overwhelming & I thank you from the bottom of my heart.


I am one who absolutely hates asking for help when I need it. I've always been very self sufficient & have always had the mindset of I can figure this out myself, no problem!! So, I'm putting aside my pride to ask for your help one more time.


We are in a world of extreme financial hurt right now (fortunately I did receive some great news on Friday, which I'll share in a bit). It's been one thing after another this year in terms of expenses and finances this year. This includes a significant downturn in my business revenue for my main business, Crown Weather Services. It also includes a fairly large increase in both our property taxes and our property insurance. Finally, the hot water heater in our home needs to be replaced & we do not have the funds to do it. The thought of lack of income and these unexpected expenses has caused me to have almost constant panic attacks.


So, I am humbly asking for your help, if you are able to. I realize and am very cognizant that everybody is struggling right now & this is why I was hesitant to post this. If you are able to help us out, it'd be appreciated more than you will ever know.


Now, there is a light at the end of the tunnel (I hope). Since the start of August, I've been actively searching for employment to offset the income that I make with my main small business (Crown Weather Services). Since the start of the job search, I estimate that I've submitted well over 100 resumes to various job openings.


I'm happy to report that on Friday I received and accepted a full-time position at a local Central Mass business. I start this new job on Wednesday. I do want to emphasize that me taking this new job WILL NOT impact the weather forecasts and weather updates that I send out here at Route 20 Weather. Now, it's going to be at least a couple of weeks until I receive my first paycheck & until then, we'll still be dealing with the mounting financial pressures.


Any help you can send over our way would be appreciated more than you will ever know.

Weather analysis as of early this afternoon showed a cold front pushing its way across New York State. This front is expected to push its way through all of Western and Central Mass during late this afternoon and early this evening & will be accompanied by some scattered showers and maybe even a rumble or two of thunder.


The sunshine, warm temperatures and humid conditions will give way to cloudy skies within the next 2-3 hours or so across all of Western and Central Mass.


Scattered showers and maybe a rumble or two of thunder are then expected between about 3 pm and 7 pm across Western Mass and between about 4 pm and 8 pm across Central Mass. These scattered showers will accompany a cold front that'll push through the area during late afternoon and early evening.


Once the front pushes through the entire area by early this evening, expect cooler temperatures and a rapid drop in the dew point temperatures. This means that temperatures will fall into the low 50s by late tonight.


SATURDAY is looking like a really nice day with lots of sunshine expected & high temperatures between 65 and 70 Degrees. Dew point temperatures on Saturday look extremely comfortable with readings in the low to mid 40s expected. Winds on Saturday will be North at around 10 mph.


TURNING TO SUNDAY - It appears that a weak secondary cold front will begin to approach the area during the day. This means that a mixture of some sunshine and lots of clouds can be expected throughout the day on Sunday. High temperatures will be around 65 Degrees. Winds will be Southeast at around 10 mph.


That cold front looks to move through the area during late Sunday night and Monday morning. It appears that a few isolated showers will accompany the front when it moves through.


NEXT WEEK - Once the front moves through, it appears that next week looks very nice with plenty of sunshine expected during all of next week. Daytime high temperatures next week appear to start out in the middle 60s on Monday and then fall back into the middle and upper 50s for Tuesday and Wednesday. High temperatures on Thursday and next Friday are expected to be in the middle 60s. Also, there is the possibility for scattered frost on Tuesday night into Wednesday morning across the entire area.
