Hi, this is Meteorologist Steve Pelletieri and I am the Weatherman. Thanks for checking into theweathermanpodcom on your Wednesday, 26th day of the month of March 2025. How quickly this month has gone by and while we're quickly getting over to that month of April, of course they talk about April showers Now. April showers not necessarily dealing with long-term overcast and rainy weather. Of course that can occur, but most of the time it's because of the instability of the atmosphere caused by the cold air that's still present across central and northern Canada and warm air that's over the southern states gradually trying to move north. Especially as that cold air comes down with an ever-growing stronger late March, early April sun, it fires up instability in the atmosphere and squeezes out any moisture that we can have in the atmosphere. Little areas of low pressure that cross across the nation very, very quickly and those storms have been continuing to hit the Pacific Northwest had a little dry day today but looks like more rainy weather moving into Seattle and Oregon and Northern California and eventually that'll get to the east. But they have been drying out quite a bit across the nation's midsection. We basically in the mid-Atlantic and northeast but on our northwesterly flow. Now the temperatures this month of March are going to end up above normal, but the temperatures of late have been near normal, just about where they should be this time of year. With the frontal system moving through, we do have that brisk northwest flow that's causing cloud cover and even lake effects, snow showers and squalls just to the east of northern and eastern portions of Lake Erie and just to the south and east of Lake Ontario to central and northern New York State, just from the Mohawk Valley northward up to Plattsburgh and extending all the way up into Ottawa. However, it looks like that that area is going to stay entrenched off to the west and northwest. Just a few isolated sprinkles or showers, mostly across central and northern New Jersey.

Southeastern New England expected for the afternoon hours today Our forecast from DC up to the Boston area calling for a mix of clouds and sun, not too strong on the winds, but it has been breezy and we're expecting high temperatures today to range in the upper 40s lower 50s. That chance of a sprinkle in the city, maybe some snow showers across the Poconos and even up into Catskills and Adirondacks. However, for tonight it will clear up and temperatures will drop back down to near 29. And tomorrow's weather features sunshine with our high temperatures once again ranging up to about 50 to 55. It's on Friday that temperatures will recover back into the 60s across the northeast and it looks like fair weather into the 60s on Saturday as well. But some of that moisture will finally arrive in the east as we get towards the last couple of days of this month. On Sunday and the last day of the month on Monday Looks like some rainy weather expected to move in.

If you are flying on this Wednesday, looking at generally fair conditions in the New York area Boston no problems there. Some rain showers will move into the Chicago area, but not until tonight. So daytime looks pretty good. Also looking pretty good, except for maybe some rain showers, in Minneapolis, st Paul Central and South Florida. All looking pretty good. Atlanta no problems there, the busiest airport in the world, and we're also looking at Charlotte and North Carolina also doing pretty good.

Very close to that border of South Carolina there's going to be some fair weather. There's high pressure builds in from Kentucky and Tennessee, rainy weather moving into southwest Texas. They need it then. Also looking at some showers possible in Houston and Dallas-Fort Worth tonight and maybe tomorrow, but on the west coast just some cloud cover in LA and San Diego giving way to sunshine, but rainy weather in San Francisco. Rain, as mentioned, in Portland and also in the Seattle area Could be some locally heavy rains and some icy conditions expected in the mountainous areas in central and eastern Washington and Oregon and to the west quite a bit of rainfall expected Could be some delays into Seattle during the afternoon and evening on Wednesday. I'm Eddie Rodgers, steve Pelletier and I am the weatherman. Hope you have a great day today. Talk to you first thing on Thursday. Enjoy the day.
