Cooler temps will hang out over New England for the rest of the week. Why? Thanks to a blocking pattern keeping a pair of lows rotating cooler air & showers over the region.
Highs across Boston & Southern New England held to 40s on Wednesday, 50s the rest of the way. @bostonglobe.com

Cold out there this morning. A couple of record morning lows. Even Boston slipped to 33°.
Feeling cool for the rest of the week, really.

The forecast was nearly spot on. Good stuff for athletes and even spectators. Sprinkles held south, and those along the course hardly reached the surface. Despite increasing clouds, it was the perfect day!

Bunches of clouds rolling into Eastern Mass now. This will hold temps to the upper 40s and low 50s. So far, sprinkles have held west of the marathon route and hardly reached the surface.

Heading to Fenway? Chilly came on tap with temps in the upper 40s and low 50s and a bit of a breeze.
The Yankees come to town Tuesday - Thursday. Cool and dry for the night games.

Tailwinds have set up some of the fastest races in history. 2011 had a 20 mph westerly tailwind which set the still-standing men's record of 2 hours, 3 minutes, and 2 seconds by Geoffrey Mutai.
Other fast races with a steady tailwind? 2010, 2016, and 2017. #boston #bostonmarathon @bostonglobe.com
A bit cold waiting at the starting line with runners for the 130th Boston Marathon.
Current temperatures for the 30,000+ runners in Hopkinton are in the upper 30s. Wind chill puts you at the low 30s, that's frosty.
Some sun & high clouds are out. When runners begin, they'll enjoy the weather.
#BostonMarathon weather update! Still trending cooler, low 40s in the morning, upper 40s & low 50s in the afternoon.
Spot shower chance - late morning and early afternoon from a sliver of energy. Slight tailwind around 10 mph.

Forecast: Friday is going to be the warmest day of the week across most of New England before steady showers arrive across the region in the afternoon, according to Globe meteorologist @weatherken.bsky.social.
CSU released its hurricane outlook today: slightly below average with the chance for a Super El Niño that'll keep wind shear strong over the Atlantic. SSTs are also closer to average than in recent years.
13 named storms - 6 hurricanes - 2 majors (cat 3+)
#tropics #newengland @bostonglobe.com
Finally, the see-saw flips! Widespread warmth is expected next week across New England (Monday through ~Thursday) with temps pushing into the 70s

Super El Niño? Why it matters:
- Our weather patterns change dramatically.
- Weak trade winds over the equatorial Pacific increase global temps dramatically, setting records.
- Sure, less Atlantic tropics action, but long jump in heat waves/drought, and rain events (northeast). @bostonglobe.com
