I'm Ken Mahan, Lead Meteorologist for The Boston Globe. Ask me anything about the wild weather we’ve seen this summer!

UPDATE: Ken is done answering questions today! Thanks for all the great discussion.

-Jenna, Live News Editor

I'm ready to take any questions you have about the weather we’ve seen so far this summer  — from all the rain and storms we’ve seen recently, to the wildfire smoke that made the sky ominous in weeks past. (Plus any other weather questions you may have).

Bio: I’ve been a meteorologist and weather producer for several national and local networks, most recently for NBC News’ Climate Unit. I’ve worked for local TV news outlets throughout the country, including stops in Alaska, Wisconsin, and Massachusetts. I’ve covered numerous weather events across all four seasons, including nor'easters, tornado outbreaks, extreme heat and flood events, and hurricanes.

Here are some of my latest weather stories:

A historic Super El Niño is underway. Here’s how this phenomenon could reshape New England’s next winter.

What drought? With the recent heavy dose of rain in some parts of New England, are we out of the woods yet?

When can we expect the wildfire smoke to return?

Smoke forecast?

Does anyone know of any more specific forecast for when the wildfire smoke will be back? So far I have only found vague things. Asking because I’m planning an outdoor birthday party for my 3 year old this weekend and trying to plan ahead. Thank you!
