Obsessed With the Weather

229: Weekly Weather Preview for February 1 - February 8, 2026

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1187714/open_sms] We’ve finally settled into a true New England winter. Cold air has been the dominant story, with temperatures running well below average, but there’s a subtle shift ahead as we finally sneak back above freezing at times this week. Daylight is making noticeable gains now, adding minutes each day and offering a reminder that the seasonal corner has been turned—even if it doesn’t feel like it yet. Precipitation chances are limited, making this a relatively quiet stretch of weather, but there’s still plenty to break down. We’ll also take a quick mental escape to a tropical location while the bitter cold lingers here at home. All of that, plus the full Weekly Weather Preview, on Episode #229 of Obsessed with the Weather. Enjoy!  Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1187714/support]
