Rain tonight through Friday morning

After a damp start, today was mainly dry with some sunshine poking through the clouds. Rain returns tonight, and it’ll stay wet through Friday morning. The weekend will be drier.

Above is our weather setup. The line of showers to our west is associated with a cold front. Moisture out of the Gulf of Mexico and across Florida is part of low pressure along a stationary front. The lows connected to that front will bring us the rain.

Here’s the timing:

Rain moves in tonight. Brighter colors on radar indicate the potential for downpours. Rain continues overnight. You’ll want rain gear for the kids at the bus stop and as you head to work. Tomorrow will be a washout. You can see the timestamp around noon with rain still falling. That continues tomorrow night. Some wet flakes could mix in for Worcester County with the cold front overnight into Friday morning. Rain should be wrapped up by mid-morning.

Rainfall totals will amount to 1-2.5″ through Friday morning. A Flood Watch is up for our area through Friday. The rainfall amount on top of the heavy weekend rainfall could lead to street and poor drainage flooding and basement flooding.

Those rain totals will add to what’s already been a wet March for Worcester and Boston.

This comes off our 4th wettest January and 2nd driest February on record. Add it all up, and it’s been a wet year so far!

With the rain and cloud cover overnight, temperatures will stay in the 40s. Temperatures don’t move all that much tomorrow with highs in the upper 40s/near 50°. There won’t be a lot of wind.

Our weekend will be drier. Mornings start off chilly in the 30s and end mild in the low 50s. We’ll see some sun, and it’ll be breezy Saturday. There’s a chance for a morning spot shower for Easter Sunday. Better chance for showers returns Tuesday night into Wednesday.

Virginia family gets keys to Habitat for Humanity’s first 3D-printed home in the US

(CNN) — One Virginia family received the keys to their new  3D-printed home  in time for Christmas. The home is Habitat for Humanity’s first 3D-printed home in the nation,  according to a Habitat news release. Janet V. Green, CEO of Habitat for Humanity Peninsula and Greater Williamsburg, told CNN it partnered with Alquist, a 3D printing company, earlier this year to begin the process. The 1,200-square-foot home has three bedrooms, two full baths and was built from concrete. The technology allowed the home to be built in just 12 hours, which saves about four weeks of construction time for a typical home. April Stringfield purchased the home through the  Habitat Homebuyer Program . She will move in with her 13-year-old son just in time for the holidays. “My son and I are so thankful,” Stringfield said in a  live feed streamed on Habitat’s Facebook  page. “I always wanted to be a homeowner. It’s like a dream come true.” To purchase the home, Stringfiel...

Lawsuit: High school football player says coaches forced him to eat pizza as punishment, violating religious beliefs

CANTON, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio high school football player who says coaches forced him to eat a pizza covered with pepperoni grease in violation of his religious beliefs is suing his former district and the ousted coaches. The former Canton McKinley High School athlete and his parents filed a federal civil rights suit this week seeking millions of dollars in damages and alleging violations of his religious freedom and constitutional rights. The athlete says in the lawsuit that coaches were notified he doesn’t eat pork or pork residue as a member of the Hebrew Israelite religious faith, but that they ordered him to eat the pizza as punishment for missing an offseason workout — and indicated his spot on the team was at risk if he didn’t. The coaches say the player chose to remove pepperoni and eat the pizza rather than an alternative food. They weren’t aware it violated his religious beliefs, according to a  defamation case they filed  previously against the teen’s father, his a...

After court victories, Michael Jackson estate eyes revival

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) — Michael Jackson’s musical legacy never left, but a kind of comeback is coming. With a series of court victories that bring the end to serious legal crises, with a Broadway show beginning and a Cirque du Soleil show returning after a long pandemic pause, the Jackson business is on the upswing 12 years after the pop superstar’s death. Very recently, things looked grim. The 2019 HBO documentary “  Leaving Neverland  ” raised child molestation allegations anew. The once-dead lawsuits brought by the two men featured in it had been  revived  by changes in the law. And a decision in the estate’s appeal of a $700 million tax bill was taking years to arrive. “I was always optimistic,” John Branca, the entertainment attorney who worked with Jackson through many of his biggest triumphs and now serves as co-executor of his estate, told The Associated Press in an interview at his Beverly Hills home. “Michael inspired the planet and his music still ...
