Last night we had a couple of rumbles of thunder and was the first January thunderstorm since 2015.

The storm that gave us the rain yesterday is moving off the New England coast as high pressure builds in from the west. Today will be a partly sunny and breezy day, high will be near 50 but winds gusting to 25-30 mph will make it feel a little colder.

Dry on Saturday as high pressure builds into our area, highs will be a little lower but with less wind.

Another low pressure system will give us rain from Sunday afternoon through late Monday, the rain may begin as a mixture of snow well inland.

Dry on Tuesday with seasonably mild temperatures.

Still another storm is expected to give us mainly rain Wednesday into early Thursday morning.
