We work hard to provide individuals and businesses with accurate weather information to help plan and manage the uncertainty that comes with New England's ever changing weather. https://www.new-england-weather.com/https://bsky.app/profile/new-england-weather.comhttps://bsky.app/profile/new-england-weather.com/post/3lqzrfcwphk2b18Z forecast sounding for Boston shows a saturated column (PWAT 1.61"), tall/skinny CAPE, and slow storm motion vectors. Warm rain processes dominate in a weakly unstable but strongly forced environment. Rainfall rates of 1.5–2"/hr likely. Flash flooding a growing concern.07 Jun 2025 16:28 +0000at://did:plc:ajjk3iebt75f24b4e6rb43ch/app.bsky.feed.post/3lqzrfcwphk2bhttps://bsky.app/profile/new-england-weather.com/post/3lqxmvk6w322bRadar at 3:55 PM shows a line of strong to severe storms firing west of I-495, but notice how activity weakens dramatically as it nears the coast. A stable marine layer is keeping Boston and the South Shore capped for now. Biggest threats remain inland with heavy rain, gusty winds, and hail. 🌩️🌊06 Jun 2025 20:02 +0000at://did:plc:ajjk3iebt75f24b4e6rb43ch/app.bsky.feed.post/3lqxmvk6w322bhttps://bsky.app/profile/new-england-weather.com/post/3lqxltnlnb22bStrong instability (2000–3000+ SBCAPE) + modest shear (25–35 kt) supports scattered severe storms, mainly north of the CT/RI border. Damaging wind is the main threat, hail possible near I-90. Flash flooding also a risk with slow movers and high rainfall rates.06 Jun 2025 19:43 +0000at://did:plc:ajjk3iebt75f24b4e6rb43ch/app.bsky.feed.post/3lqxltnlnb22bhttps://bsky.app/profile/new-england-weather.com/post/3lqwqk6xfyk2eEven with limited daytime heating, we’re already seeing a severe storm fire early this morning. With CAPE building and boundaries in play, this sets the stage for more numerous and potentially severe storms this afternoon, especially 2–8 PM.
