Currently in Boston — November 17, 2023: Sunny, then showers, then cooler

The weather, currently.

A clear start to our Friday will transition into a partly sunny day. Temperatures during the afternoon will reach the mid-60s for what is likely the warmest day the rest of the month. It will become breezy in the afternoon from the south ahead of a cold front. That front passes through the area on Saturday with a few showers. The heaviest rain will stay offshore. Temperature Saturday will reach the 50s. It turns blustery and colder for Sunday with temperatures in the 40s to near 50. There might be more rain just before Thanksgiving when cooler air arrives.

What you need to know, currently.

Everyone deserves to thrive. Everyone is worthy of a better world. That’s why we’re building a weather service for the climate emergency.

Currently’s new weather service is now live. In the weeks and months ahead, we’ll be continually adding more features and opening up more slots as we develop the service.

But for now, space is limited in the weather service because I want to make sure we can provide the highest quality service we possibly can while we work to refine the system with your input.

If you’d like to put your name on the waiting list, be sure to fill out our baseline survey if you haven’t already which will hold your spot in line.

Our goal — as always — is to co-create the most personalized, most informative weather service that exists. And, above all, to make this service accessible, equitable, and resilient enough to bring safety and joy to the climate emergency.
