Tuesday Forecast

7:29AM

DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 27-31)…
The final 5 days of October. We start with a dry and cool one today and follow that with a cloudy and eventually wet and breezy Wednesday (most rain at night) as a broad low pressure area tracks west of the region but drags some of the moisture that was associated with Pacific Hurricane Patricia last week up with it. This will produce some beneficial, but not drought-breaking, rainfall. A cold front sweeps it all offshore by early Thursday but the day itself will be quite mild as we’ll have to wait for a secondary front to bring the chilly air back in for Friday, which will be a dry and breezy day. Things progress quickly enough so that Halloween on Saturday as a milder day but it looks like a dry one too.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs in the 50s. Wind light variable becoming E to SE.
TONIGHT: Increasing clouds. Lows in the 40s. Wind light SE.
WEDNESDAY: Cloudy. Periods of rain develop west to east in the afternoon. Highs in the 50s. Wind SE increasing to 10-20 MPH with higher gusts by late in the day.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Cloudy with periods of rain and rain showers, heavy at times. Chance of thunder. Temperatures steady in the 50s may rise to the 60s overnight. Wind SE to S 15-25 MPH with higher gusts, potentially to 40 MPH or greater.
THURSDAY: Any showers end early otherwise sun and passing clouds. Highs around 70. Wind W 15-25 MPH.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 40s. Highs in the 50s.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 30s. Highs around 60.

DAYS 6-10 (NOVEMBER 1-5)…
Rain showers possible late November 1 into November 2. Fair November 3. Rain showers possible early November 4. Fair November 5. Temperatures variable, averaging near to above normal.

DAYS 11-15 (NOVEMBER 6-10)…
Overall mainly dry weather. Temperatures near to above normal during the period.

Monday Forecast

7:14AM

DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 26-30)…
As we progress through the last week of October we will see a pattern that produces a variety of weather, from a bright chill early in the week as Canadian high pressure dominates New England to a period of wet weather Wednesday as low pressure tracks northeastward through the Ohio Valley and Great Lakes and pushes a warm front toward southern New England. Some of the moisture from the former Hurricane Patricia from the Pacific ocean will be associated with this system, and the rain will be of some benefit for our area which is running a significant rainfall deficit for the year. This system moves right along and after we’re briefly in the warm sector of this system Wednesday night and early Thursday, a cold front will sweep through and dry the weather out during Thursday. Significant cooling will wait until a secondary front crosses the region Thursday night from the northwest, and Friday will turn out windy and much cooler with dry weather.
TODAY: Sunny. Highs 48-55. Wind N 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Clear. Lows 20s inland valleys, 30-35 elsewhere. Wind light N.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs in the 50s. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Cloudy. Rain likely. Lows in the 40s. Highs 55-65, mildest at night.
THURSDAY: A few early rain showers otherwise sun and clouds, windy. Lows in the 50s. Highs 65-75.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy and windy. Lows in the 30s. Highs 45-55.

DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 31-NOVEMBER 4)…
Looks like a dry and chilly Halloween October 31. A couple low pressure systems bring the chance of some wet weather late November 1 into November 2 and again November 4, with timing somewhat uncertain.

DAYS 11-15 (NOVEMBER 5-9)…
Mostly dry weather. Temperatures near to below normal.

Sunday Forecast

8:10AM

DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 25-29)…
Cold front moves through the region this morning and early afternoon with a band of rain showers. Improving weather from west to east during the afternoon as the front pushes offshore. High pressure builds in tonight through Monday and Tuesday with fair and chilly weather. Low pressure approaches from the southwest Wednesday, pushing a warm front toward the region and causing a widespread rain to occur. Some of the moisture in this system will be from former Pacific Hurricane Patricia. As the low center takes a likely path northwest of the region we’ll enter the warm sector of this system briefly before its cold front sweeps through from west to east Thursday. At four days out, the timing of the front is not certain but at this stage I’m leaning toward a rapid movement of the system and an earlier passage with rain showers to start the day followed by improving but windy weather, initially mild then cooling. This will be fine-tuned.
TODAY: Mainly cloudy with showers progressing west to east across the region through early afternoon, ending lastly on Cape Cod. Breaking clouds later in the day. Highs around 60. Wind S 5-15 MPH shifting to W and increasing to 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Clearing. Lows in the 30s except some lower 40s South Coast. Wind NW 5-15 MPH and gusty.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs around 50. Wind NW 10-20 MPH and gusty, shifting to N and diminishing.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 25-30 interior, 30-35 coast. Highs in the 50s.
WEDNESDAY: Cloudy. Rain likely. Lows in the 40s. Highs in the 50s.
THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy with showers early then partly cloudy. Lows around 50. Highs around 60.

DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 30-NOVEMBER 3)…
Fair and cooler October 30 then milder October 31. Unsettled weather possible November 1 into November 2 followed by fair and colder by the end of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (NOVEMBER 4-8)…
Unsettled weather early in the period then drier again. Temperatures near to below normal.

Saturday Forecast

6:36AM

DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 24-28)…
High pressure centered to the north of the region will allow winds to turn more easterly today allowing some ocean cloudiness to move westward over southeastern NH and eastern MA as well as parts of RI at times. Cloudiness from an approaching cold front will arrive later in the day from the west as well. Overall though not a bad start to the weekend. Even Sunday won’t be a terrible day, just lots of cloudiness for the first 2/3 of it along with a chance of rain showers as the front moves through. Improvement starts later Sunday but this will also mark the arrival of a very cool air mass which will be around for the start of the week Monday and Tuesday. By Wednesday, low pressure will approach from the southwest, eventually leading to a chance of rain. Some of the moisture that was associated with Pacific Hurricane Patricia may be involved in the midweek rain threat.
TODAY: Variably cloudy. Highs in the 50s. Wind NE-E 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Lows in the 40s. Wind SE-S 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY: Mostly cloudy through early afternoon with scattered rain showers then increasing sun west to east. Highs around 60. Wind S to SW increasing to 10-20 MPH then shifting to W from west to east.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 25-35. Highs 45-55.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 25-35. Highs in the 50s.
WEDNESDAY: Increasing clouds. Chance of rain afternoon and night. Lows 35-45. Highs in the 50s.

DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 29-NOVEMBER 2)…
Low pressure likely passes northwest of the region Thursday October 29 with rain showers and milder air. Windy/colder Friday October 30. Fair and cool Saturday October 31. Watching for another low pressure and frontal system with potential unsettled weather part of November 1-2.

DAYS 11-15 (NOVEMBER 3-7)…
Drier/cooler early period, milder with unsettled weather later in the period.

Friday Forecast

7:29AM

DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 23-27)…
Back to the chill today as a fresh cool air mass arrives from Canada, along with some cloudiness to start the day then more sun with time as the air in the lower levels of the atmosphere dries out. Temperatures will be about 20 degrees colder than yesterday along with a gusty breeze adding to the chill. This will lead to a cold night tonight as high pressure noses overhead and winds drop off. The weekend will start bright and cold with lots of sun for much of Saturday, though some low clouds may sneak in off the ocean as the wind turns more northeast to east during the course of the day, and a more widespread deck of high to middle cloudiness will begin to move in from the west later in the day ahead of an approaching front, which will cross the region Sunday morning and midday with just a few rain showers possible. This will be followed by a new push of chilly air by Sunday night and set up a fair but chilly start to next week.
TODAY: Partly cloudy through mid morning then mostly sunny. Highs 48-55. Wind NW 10-20 MPH and gusty.
TONIGHT: Clear. Lows 25-32 interior valleys, 32-37 elsewhere. Diminishing NW wind.
SATURDAY: Sunny to partly cloudy through mid afternoon then increasing clouds later in the afternoon. Highs in the 50s. Wind N to NE 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Risk of rain showers west to east overnight. Lows in the 40s. Wind variable shifting to SW 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY: Mostly cloudy with passing rain showers possible morning. Partly to mostly sunny afternoon with more sun to the northwest while clouds may linger to the southeast. Highs around 60. Wind shifting to NW 10-20 MPH.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 25-35. Highs 45-55.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 25-35. Highs in the 50s.

DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 28-NOVEMBER 1)…
Watching for a possible rain event later October 28 through October 29 and some of this will hinge on the future of the moisture associated with powerful Pacific Hurricane Patricia about to make landfall on the western coast of Mexico. Even if that moisture does not get involved, an unsettled weather event is still possible here during that time. Fair weather returns for October 30-31. It may turn unsettled again to start November. Temperatures variable averaging out near to above normal.

DAYS 11-15 (NOVEMBER 2-6)…
Fair weather returns early to mid period before another chance of wet weather arrives late period. Temperatures chill-off early in the period then moderate.

Thursday Forecast

7:30AM

DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 22-26)…
Significant change from today to tomorrow brought on by the passage of a cold front this evening. Today’s mild, cloud-filled and somewhat humid day with a chance of rain showers and even a thunderstorm will be replaced by bright, chilly, crisp weather tomorrow. Nice weather to start the weekend but another front will cross the region early Sunday with clouds and a rain shower threat before fair weather returns. High pressure builds in with fair and cool weather Monday.
TODAY: Mostly cloudy. Areas of light fog this morning. A few breaks of sun mainly this afternoon. Isolated rain showers mid afternoon on from west to east. Risk of a heavier shower with thunder late. Somewhat humid. Highs 65-73. Wind S to SW increasing to 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.

7:20AM

DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 21-25)…
Frontal boundary slipped to the south overnight and will remain there today, making today cooler and more cloudy than yesterday. A reversal tomorrow will put southeastern New England back into the warmer air before a cold front sweeps through from the west in the evening returning a chilly air mass to the region by Friday. A second front will rapidly cross the region Sunday and looks like it may have quick enough movement to be through the region on the earlier side.
TODAY: Mainly cloudy. A sprinkle of rain possible at times. Highs upper 50s to lower 60s. Wind light NE.
TONIGHT: Mainly cloudy. Patchy fog. Lows 50-55. Wind light variable.

Tuesday Forecast

7:23AM

DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 20-24)…
Northern jet stream stays dominant with generally fast-moving systems, but the orientation of a front keeps it nearby for 3 days with lots of clouds but only a slight chance of rain showers through Thursday but temperatures that will vary somewhat as the front wavers back and forth. A cold front from the west will sweep through Thursday night, returning cool and bright weather late week.
TODAY: Mostly cloudy to partly sunny. Slight risk of rain showers. Highs in the 60s. Wind SW 10-20 MPH and gusty.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Slight risk of rain showers. Lows around 50. Wind SW to variable 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 30-NOVEMBER 3)…
Again no major changes to the dry pattern with variable but overall milder than average temperatures.

Monday Forecast

7:29AM

DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 19-23)…
Work week will be largely dry (again) with a cold start and a milder middle and end, though some variability in temperature will be noted mid to late week after a mid week warm up. Part of this will be due to a front that drops out of Canada and wavers around the region from late Tuesday into Thursday. This front will never produce more than a few showers, however.
TODAY: Sunny. Highs 46-53. Wind NW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts this morning.
TONIGHT: Increasing high clouds. Lows around 40 early then rising through the 40s. Wind light W to SW.
TUESDAY: Variably cloudy. Highs 56-63. Wind SW to W 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Partly sunny. Risk of a few showers. Lows 45-55. Highs 55-65.
THURSDAY: Partly sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs 65-75.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 40s. Highs 55-65.

DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 24-28)…
Will watch a trough to the south early in the period but for now the chance of it impacting the region in any meaningful way is pretty low, so it looks like the overall dry pattern continues with temperatures changeable with passing fronts but overall near to above normal for this period.

DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 29-NOVEMBER 2)…
Dry overall pattern with temperatures near to above normal as we head toward early November.

Sunday Forecast

DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 28-NOVEMBER 1)…
Mainly dry weather. Temperatures near to mostly above normal.
