  1. Dilemma: Backdoor front MAY be a spoiler Sunday & Memorial Day. Cloudier with possible showers & perhaps near 60 coast to 65-72 inland.#wbz 8:46 AM May 22nd via web
  2. Low confidence in holiday weekend 4cast: Showers likely Friday then a shot of some hot sunshine Sat up to 85-90 except cooler Cape Cod.#wbz 8:43 AM May 22nd via web
  3. Starting damp & murky tomorrow & Thursday but eventual bursts of sunshine yield spotty heavier showers & storms, highs 78, 60s coast.#wbz 8:41 AM May 22nd via web
  4. Occasional rain & mist should become more periodic later in the afternoon, highs 60s at coast with fog to 60s inland. #wbz 8:38 AM May 22nd via web
  5. @AtkinsonWeather Happy I'm not taking a calculus final. GOOD LUCK! Have a fun week! 7:25 PM May 20th via web in reply to AtkinsonWeather
  6. Tropical Storm ALBERTO doesn't have much of a future. Logon to the nhc.noaa.gov for more info.#wbz twitter.com/BarryWBZ/statu… 5:09 PM May 20th via web
  7. Too early to be confident about the Memorial Day Weekend 4cast. I doubt that it will be as nice as this. Expect a battle of hot & cold.#wbz 4:12 PM May 20th via web
  8. The forecasting dilemma this week is determining how much burnoff happens daily and how many showers & storms will pop. #wbz 4:10 PM May 20th via web
  9. Now that this splendid weekend is over, the weather will turn foul. Expect patches of migrating mist and showers tomorrow into Tuesday.#wbz 4:08 PM May 20th via web
  10. "I'll Have Another" day like this tomorrow. Check out my latest thinking. boston.cbslocal.com/2012/05/19/ano… #wbz 8:44 PM May 19th via web
  11. Go west young man if you want to see the solar eclipse tomorrow. We miss out on the show here in New England. skyandtelescope.com/observing/atag… #wbz 6:09 PM May 19th via web
  12. Showers will return at some point on Monday with periods of rain and mist Monday night & Tuesday. #wbz 3:36 PM May 19th via web
  13. Another beauty tomorrow. Highs 80-85 but closer to 66-70 @ the beaches due to 6-12 mph sea breeze. High tide @ noon. Sunscreen PLEASE!#wbz 3:35 PM May 19th via web
  14. Bizarre! Unbelievable! Tropical Storm Alberto forms- is centered about 140 miles ESE of Charleston, SC. nhc.noaa.gov/#ALBERTO #wbz 1:57 PM May 19th via web

  17. Daily sea breezes will keep the coastline cooler through Sunday with mostly lower to middle 60s there. #wbz 9:18 AM May 18th via web
  18. Sunshine through some thin cloudiness this afternoon. Bright sunshine tomorrow and sunny to partly cloudy on Sunday. #wbz 9:16 AM May 18th via web
  19. Wet weather returns Monday and Tuesday with patchy mist and showers. Watching the ocean for any sneaky attack of rain late Sunday. #wbz 8:40 AM May 17th via web
  20. Warmest weather over the weekend will be in western and northern New England with highs in the lower to middle 80s. #wbz 8:39 AM May 17th via web
