BOSTON -- A strong Low Pressure system will produce wind driven showers and cold temperatures on Monday. I think the day will start overcast, but showers will hold off until afternoon. I think the greatest precipitation totals will be well south of Boston. Southern New Hampshire should have just clouds and a few showers. Even Boston will not get that much rain. Perhaps around .25"-.50" over the Cape. Strong northeast winds are likely and a wind advisory will probably be issued on Monday along the coast. We'll also be monitoring high tides for any minor splash over at the time of high tide. Wind, rain and clouds...it will feel more like March.

The ocean storm's effects will last into Tuesday. Once again, SE Ma. & Cape Cod will be closest to the storm, so that is where the strongest winds will occur and showers are likely early in the day. Any rain threat should dissipate as the day wears on and by late Tuesday winds will slacken as skies clear.

By mid week dry weather will return and so will mild temperatures. Or at least closer to the normal of 66.

An early look at the end of the week looks a bit unsettled. Expect some rain again by Friday.

Have a great Sunday and Happy Mother's Day!!
