Good morning! Another frigid day today with a blend of sunshine and clouds. We'll have one more frigid day after today, then it'll get a little more seasonable. We're still watching the weekend's weather closely, but it does not look like we will have a major storm Saturday/Sunday. INTERACTIVE RADAR: Live Pinpoint Weather 12 Radar » | | FLIGHT TRACKER TODAY Windy and frigid all day long here in Southern New England. We'll see temperaures only rise into the mid to upper 20s with sunshine and few clouds. Hour by Hour // A close look at the upcoming conditions » Afternoon highs will be in the mid to upper 20s. Winds will be gusting to 35mph from the northwest and west. | | BEACH AND BOATING FORECASTS TONIGHT Partly cloudy skies tonight....lows in the teens. TOMORROW Thursday will be quiet locally. We'll be watching a developing storm along the Gulf Coast, however. This is the storm we've been monitoring for the possibility of impacting our weekend. Highs on Thursday wil be in the upper 20s with still a gusty wind. LOOKING AHEAD Friday will be a little milder...more seaonable. Highs will be in the upper 30s. Meanwhile, we'll be watching that storm system as it works across the Southeast United States. The major computer models are all indicating that the storm center will work across the Florida Panhandle and Georgia, then move into the Atlantic. The solutions from those computer models diverge from there. The question is...will the northern branch of the jet stream link with the southern branch to form a major storm? Right now, that answer looks like no. Regarding the southern branch low...the American computer model still comes a little closer, but it does not look like it will form into a major, impactful storm to us. The European (which is Option 2 below) is a little farther south with even less impact to us here Southern New England. We may still end up with some snow, however, as some energy from the northern branch of the jet stream passes overhead. Here's the computer model output. You may notice the European solution is a little farther north than recent runs of the model...it's still weak and looks like it will have minimal impact on us. The GFS model, on the other hand, has a similar track to the European (a little farther north), but it will be a little stronger. -Meteorologist T.J. Del Santo T.J.
