Today could be a record-breaker

PROVIDENCE – Today’s expected high is the same temperature as the record set back in 1991 – a warm 59 degrees.

“So we’ll be pushing it,” meteorologist Alan Dunham with the National Weather Service said this morning when asked if we might break a record today.

The normal high for today is just 43 degrees, according to the weather service.

We’re just glad we’re not about to break the record for the low temperature today – that was 1 degree set back in 1976.

Tomorrow, we’re looking at a high of 57 degrees, and temps should fall to high 40s and low 50s this weekend. By then, at least we’ll have temperatures closer to normal, Dunham said.

“But those who are looking for a white Christmas, don’t hold your breath yet,” Dunham said. “We’ve still got 11 days to go. We are running out of time.”
