Massachusetts residents should prepare for a week of shifting weather patterns. After a weekend of steady rain, a brief dry spell on Sunday will give way to more showers by Sunday night. Meteorologists expect rain to linger on and off through most of next week, with Monday shaping up as the rainiest day. Strong winds have already been reported in southern New England...
The weekend in Minnesota is shaping up to feel like July rather than late spring, with temperatures climbing well above normal across most of the state. While the north shore cities like Duluth and Grand Marais stay cooler thanks to breezes off Lake Superior, most areas will see highs in the 80s by afternoon. Morning temperatures started in the upper 60s for the Twin...
Late May in Massachusetts and nearby states isn't living up to its usual mild reputation this week. While the morning might start calm, a slow-moving storm is set to sweep through southern New England, bringing gusty winds and steady rain.

Vermont’s weather is acting a bit out of season, with unexpected snow showers showing up in the higher parts of the state while rain takes over most lowlands.

From just west of Frenchtown all the way to Florence, the system brings a mix of wind and hail that should stick around until mid-afternoon.

Southern Maine isn’t the only place getting soaked this weekend. A strong storm system rolling through the region is bringing heavy rain and rough conditions to the coast and inland areas. The National Weather Service has scrambled to issue warnings before the worst of it hits, turning a typical weekend upside down for locals and visitors alike. With storms like thi...
Northeast Ohio is getting lucky with a weather pattern that traps dry, sunny days while thunderstorms soak much of the country. This setup, called an omega block, happens when the jet stream curves into a giant slow-moving wave shaped like the Greek letter omega (Ω). The middle of this wave acts like a protective dome, keeping rain away and delivering mild temperatur...
The afternoon of Friday is set to bring a lovely late May sun across the DMV, with temperatures climbing into the mid‑70s and a gentle northwest breeze.

Nightfall on Friday promises clear skies and a cool drop in tem...
Experts predict fewer storms this year, but history shows even quiet seasons can bring devastating hurricanes. The National Weather Service, AccuWeather, and Colorado State University all agree: the 2026 Atlantic and Gulf hurricane season, which runs from June 1 to November, will likely see below-average activity. That means fewer named storms overall—just 8 to 16 co...

The storm is seen on Doppler radar, which tracks its path and strength. Four towns feel the impact: Victor, Woodside, Pinesdale, and Bell Crossing. People in these areas should expect fast winds that can rea...
Climate change is turning hail into a bigger, costlier threat. A new study shows that as the world warms, storms will produce more large hailstones—those bigger than a marble—and fewer smaller ones. By the end of this century, the frequency of large hail could rise between 38 % and 47 %, depending on how much greenhouse gas is released, while smaller hail events ma...
The film “Pressure” tells a story that is rarely seen on the big screen: how a group of scientists and their calculations helped decide when millions would cross the English Channel. The main character is a Scottish meteorologist who faces a huge responsibility—if his prediction fails, the invasion could cost thousands of lives and change history. In the movie, the ...

Thursday looks brighter, with highs in the upper 60s to low 70...
Florida can’t seem to catch a break from the heat, even when the skies open up. The state’s been struggling with drought, so rain is welcome—but not all at once. Heavy downpours could turn streets into rivers in some spots, while the humidity sticks around like an uninvited guest. Instead of making things feel cooler, the tropical air just makes everything stickier. ...
The rescue team in Laos is racing against bad weather and worsening cave conditions to free seven villagers who are trapped after a flood blocked their exit.

Western Europe is experiencing an extreme heat event that has pushed temperatures to new highs. London recently recorded a May temperature of about 95°F, while parts of France reached nearly 99°F and Spain exceeded 100°F. The cause is a high‑pressure “heat dome” that traps hot air over the region, similar to a pressure cooker. Climate change is intensifying this phen...
Central New York is set to feel a chill as a dry cold front rolls in on Wednesday. The sky will stay partly sunny, with temperatures climbing into the mid‑70s before the front arrives in the late afternoon. A brief shower or thunderstorm could appear, but there isn’t much moisture to fuel a big storm. Nighttime temperatures will drop into the low 50s, a clear shift ...
