NBC 10 BOSTON.
>>> WOW, THAT IS AMAZING.
YEAH, SCIENCE.
TEVIN, WE’VE GOT TO TALK ABOUT
THESE WILDFIRES AND WE MENTIONED IT IN THE LEAD-UP TO JEFF’S
PACKAGE.
WHAT WE USED TO CALL FIRE SEASON
IS NOW MUCH MORE EXTENSIVE THAN
THAT.
>> RESEARCHERS AT CLIMATE
CENTRAL HAVE CALLED ATTENTION TO THAT.
SO A 50-YEAR SPAN HAS ACTUALLY SHOWN THERE HAVE BEEN 50 MORE
FIRE DAYS FOR THE FOLKS IN THE
DARKER SHADE OF RED HERE AND
PREDOMINANTLY MOST OF THOSE
ACROSS THE INNER MOUNTAIN WEST
AND PORTIONS OF OF THE DESERT
SOUTHWEST, WHERE ACROSS THE
NORTH AND EAST HERE THERE HAVE
BEEN CLOSER TO 30 OR 40 FEWER
FIRE DAYS.
EVEN THOUGH THERE’S SOME IMPROVEMENT FOR SOME OF THE
COUNTRY, A MAJORITY OF THE
COUNTRY IS NOT ONLY EXPERIENCING
50 MORE OR 30 MORE FIRE DAYS BUT
ALSO FIRE WEATHER.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
IT’S WINDIER, IT’S HOTTER AND
DRYER, TOO.
AND OF COURSE AS WE’VE SEEN OF
LATE IT DOESN’T TAKE A FIRE HERE
AT HOME TO CAUSE IMPACTS.
CANADIAN WILDFIRE PRIME EXAMPLE
CASE IN POINT 900 MILES AWAY, SO
ANYTHING CLOSER TO HOME IS ALSO A CONCERN.
IT SHOWS YOU WE’RE ALSO
CONNECTED HERE ON THIS ONE
EARTH.
WE COULD USE SOME RAINFALL
SPECIFICALLY HERE ACROSS THE
NORTH AND EAST.
STILL IN DROUGHT AND ABNORMALLY
DRY IN SOME SPOTS. WE MIGHT GET SOME RAIN TONIGHT
BUT WOULDN’T REALLY BANK ON IT.
CLOUDY SKIES FOR THE NEXT
SEVERAL HOURS.
54 DEGREES RIGHT AROUND 6:00 IN
THE MORNING WITH A MIX OF SUN
AND CLOUDS TOMORROW.
THERE COULD BE ONE OR TWO SPOTTY
SHOWERS OR THUNDERSTORMS LATE IN
THE DAY.
MOST OF THE SHOWER ACTIVITY
ACTUALLY STARTING TO COME TO
CLOSE RIGHT NOW WITH THE
EXCEPTION OF WHAT’S HAPPENING
CROSS CENTRAL PORTIONS OF AND
MIDDLESEX COUNTY HERE AND JUST NORTH AND WEST OF GRATIN, THIS
IS DRAPING ITSELF OR MOVING
ITSELF TOWARDS THE SOUTH AND
EAST AND ONE MORE LIGHT SHOWER
WORKING ITS WAY OVER TOWARDS BEVERLY AND NORTH SHORE WITH
LYNN AND GLOSSNER THE NEXT 15 TO
20 MINUTES OR SO.
TOMORROW WE THINK IS MORE
CONCERNED DAY FOR THAT AND MAYBE
EVEN SOME SEVERE WEATHER, TOO.
WE GET INTO TOMORROW MORNING
2:00 AND AGAIN SUN AND CLOUDS
TOMORROW TO START THE DAY.
VERY SIMILAR TO TODAY, BUT WITH
A LITTLE BIT MORE HEAT IN THE
ATMOSPHERE AND A LITTLE MORE
SUNSHINE, THAT MAY LEAD TO SOME SPOTS STARTING TO SEE
THUNDERSTORMS UP HERE
SPECIFICALLY ACROSS BRISTOL
COUNTY AND PLYMOUTH COUNTY AND
THE OUTER CAPE, TOO, NOW RIGHT
AROUND 1:00 IN THE AFTERNOON.
IT’S AT THAT POINT THE DARKER CELLS COMING IN NOW AT 4:00.
FREQUENT LINING AT TIMES AS WELL
WORCESTER COUNTY AND PERHAPS NORFOLK COUNTY AND AROUND
NORWOOD CLOSER TO 6:00 AND 7:00
P.M.
AS WE LOSE THE HEATING OF THE
DAY WE OVERALL LOSE THE CHANCE
OF THUNDERSTORMS BY THE DAY’S
CONCLUSION. WE GET INTO SATURDAY HERE.
THIS IS THE PRIDE FORECAST. THERE COULD BE A PREDAWN 6:00 IN
THE MORNING AND ANOTHER ROUND IN
THE AFTERNOON, TOO.
ANY RAINFALL WE’REIMENTING
SHOULD BE ON THE LIGHTER SIDE.
IN FACT, IF YOU LOOK AT THE
TIMING OF HOW ALL OF THIS PLAYS
OUT, AGAIN MUCH OF MIDDAY IS
DRY, MORE SUNSHINE RIGHT AROUND NOON AND THEN RIGHT AROUND 4:00
THERE COULD BE ONE OR TWO LIGHT
SHOWERS SPECIFICALLY JUST NORTH OF THE CITY AND NORTH SHORE.
THE TEN-DAY FORECAST BRINGS IN
ANOTHER ROUND OF RAIN.
FRIDAY I THINK IS A BIGGER DAY
THAN SATURDAY.
SUNDAY IS DRY.
SUNDAY IS VERY NICE. 78 DEGREES FOR A HIGH ON SUNDAY.
AND THEN IT’S MONDAY WHERE WE
SEE THAT CHANCE OF RAIN CREEPING
