BOSTON – Hello, fellow cave dwellers!

I come to you with good news … January is finally over and not a moment too soon!

While there were a few, brief sunny breaks, Thursday was another gray day – our 10th in a row with essentially no sustained sunshine.

January 2024 will go into the books as one of the cloudiest and wettest Januarys on record.

With 7.64″ of precipitation, it was the fourth-wettest January ever recorded in Boston and the third-wettest in Worcester (over 8″).

If you combine the last two months, December and January, it was the fifth-wettest in Boston and, in Worcester, THE WETTEST December-January combo ever recorded with over 15″ of water!

February is here to save the day!  Well, sorta …

The clouds will be sticking around through most of the day Friday. As a cold front comes through, there will also be some light rain south of Boston overnight and into Friday morning. Wouldn’t be shocked if a few wet flakes mixed in as well.
