Currently in Boston — December 14, 2022

The weather, currently.

It will be chilly tonight with temperatures falling back down into the 20s not quite as cold as last night. Look for sunshine for Wednesday with highs in the upper thirties along with a gusty wind.

We'll see more cloudiness for Thursday but it won't rain. Temperatures will reach into the forties in the afternoon. A storm will move over New England Friday bringing rain and snow over Northern New England. There could be over 6 in across ski country but I'm not expecting anything in the Boston area as temperatures stay way above freezing in the 40s.

"Two Alaska electric utilities are taking steps that could lead to the construction of the state’s first community solar farms, while a consumer interest group is drafting legislation that could support the efforts.

Advocates say the moves by the Anchorage and Fairbanks utilities could lead to projects that allow any household to invest in solar panels to reap their benefits, including low-income residents who can’t afford to install their own rooftop array like many Alaskans are doing."
