Wednesday Forecast

7:23AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 15-19)…
High pressure will be in control through the period. Elongated low pressure will slide out south of the region later Thursday to early Friday with some high cloudiness, and that will be about the most eventful weather there is during this 5 day period.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows in the 50s. Wind light N.
THURSDAY: Partly cloudy. Highs from the middle 70s to lower 80s. Wind light N with sea breezes developing.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 50s. Highs from the lower to middle 70s.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the middle 50s to lower 60s. Highs in the 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 20-24)…
High pressure gives way to a broad trough this period and also have to watch for some moisture trying to come northward from an old low pressure area to the south. A few episodes of showers and thunderstorms are possible, favoring late June 20 to early June 21 and later June 23 to early June 24, based on current timing.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 25-29)…
Limited shower/thunderstorm chances, largely dry. Temperatures near to above normal.

Tuesday Forecast

7:34AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 14-18)…
Upper level low pressure slowly elongates and drifts to the southeast and south of New England the next few days as high pressure builds north of the region. This will allow for fair weather but still with a lack of heat, though it will be somewhat warmer through midweek before cooling down slightly late in the week. A surface low pressure system will be stretched out southwest of the region later Thursday and will bring some cloudiness into the region at that time with rain most likely staying southwest and south of New England.
TODAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy. Highs in the 70s. Wind NW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy to mostly clear. Lows in the 50s. Wind NW 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs around 80.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows around 60. Highs around 80.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 70s.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 70s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 19-23)…
High pressure will dominate with dry and warmer weather June 19 to end the weekend. We’ll watch an old low pressure area to the south that may send at least some moisture northward with a risk of showers at some point during June 20-23 with temperatures near to above normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 24-28)…
Flat ridge of high pressure centered in the Midwestern States pushes the jet stream further north and allows more persistent warmth but with a few disturbances producing brief episodes of showers and thunderstorms among otherwise mainly dry weather. Temperatures near to above normal.

Monday Forecast

7:18AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 13-17)…
Cold pool of air continues to sink southeastward and will sit just east of New England for a couple more days before finally sinking southward and elongating into the eastern Middle Atlantic States as high pressure ridging builds across the Great Lakes and nearby Canada later in the week. There are no significant changes to the forecast posted yesterday, so onto its update.
TODAY: Partly to mostly cloudy. Brief passing showers possible southern NH and northeastern MA late day. Highs from the middle 60s to lower 70s. Wind N 15-25 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Mostly to partly cloudy. Brief passing shower possible eastern MA early. Lows from the upper 40s to middle 50s. Wind NW 10-20 MPH and gusty.
TUESDAY: Partly cloudy. Highs in the 70s. Wind NW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs around 80.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows around 60. Highs around 80.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 70s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 18-22)…
High pressure will dominate during the weekend with fair and warming weather here as low pressure hangs out well to the south of New England. A rapidly weakening version of this low will drift northward and may bring a few showers to the region June 20-22 with near to above normal temperatures.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 23-27)…
Flat ridge of high pressure centered in the Midwestern States pushes the jet stream further north and allows more persistent warmth but with a few disturbances producing brief episodes of showers and thunderstorms among otherwise mainly dry weather. Temperatures near to above normal.

Sunday Forecast

10:41AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 12-16)…
The cool pattern is entering its final days but will be reinforced once again by a cold front charging across the region this morning. This front is moisture-starved, so only some cloudiness is about all it can muster up. An isolated shower may result but most areas will see nothing. More cloudiness will wheel in from the north later in the day as a broad pool of cold air aloft circulates its southwestern side across New England while the center passes northeast of the area. This cold pool will be east of New England Monday into Tuesday so we’ll still be under its influence, especially Monday, which will be a breezy and cool day with some cloudiness around at times and perhaps even a couple passing showers over southern NH and northeastern Massachusetts especially from late afternoon into evening. Any of this activity should be well offshore Tuesday. As we get to midweek, high pressure will become established and bring warmer, sunnier days.
TODAY: Partly to mostly cloudy. A few isolated showers possible. Temperatures cool from the 70s to the 60s. Wind W shifting to NW 15-25 MPH with gusts 30-40 MPH at times.
TONIGHT: Mostly to partly cloudy. Lows from the upper 40s to middle 50s. Wind NW to N 10-20 MPH with gusts to 30 MPH or higher at times.
MONDAY: Partly to mostly cloudy. Brief passing showers possible southern NH and northeastern MA late day. Highs from the middle 60s to lower 70s. Wind N 15-25 MPH with higher gusts.
TUESDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows from the middle 40s interior valleys to middle 50s coastal/urban areas. Highs in the 70s.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs around 80.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows around 60. Highs around 80.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 17-21)…
The pattern during this period will feature a final attempt at a cool-down to start the period as a trough axis is pushed southward across New England on June 17, then replaced by a growing ridge of high pressure from northwest to southeast for the remainder of the period. This transitional time will start with some cloudiness at times on June 17 then sunshine dominating for several days thereafter. Temperatures will start the period near to below normal and end up above normal for the last 3 days of it.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 22-26)…
Early summer heat June 22-23, tempered by a cold front around June 24-25 briefly, but limited moisture will limit rainfall. Fair again by the end of the period.

Saturday Forecast

11:17AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 11-15)…
A warm front approaches today. A weakening complex of storms, in the form of mainly elevated-base rain showers, will cross southern New England this afternoon as the border of warmer air nears. This warm air will arrive tonight for a short stay, limiting the temperature drop and increasing the humidity. We’ll have to watch for a couple isolated showers or thunderstorms forming and moving across parts of the region during the night, but this seems most likely in far western MA and western to south central CT. On Sunday, we’ll be shown that the fairly frequent visits of cool air are not quite done yet, as a cold front will whistle through from northwest to southeast in the morning. The timing of this front is not such that big storms will be likely as it will come well before the time of maximum heating from the sun, and also much of the support for storms will have moved away before the front arrives, so will just call for an isolated shower in the morning-midday then a windy, dry, cool afternoon with a sun/cloud mix and possibly an additional instability shower especially southern NH and northern MA later in the day. Monday will continue that breezy and cool theme before it relaxes a little on Tuesday (similar to the Thursday/Friday set-up from this week). Wednesday looks like a dry and warmer day as high pressure takes control.
TODAY: Clouds thicken through early afternoon followed by areas of rain which will be variable in nature with the better chance southwest of Boston and lesser chance toward southeastern NH, then clouds may thin by early evening but risk of an isolated shower or thunderstorm at that time too. Highs from near 70 coast to upper 70s interior. Wind SE to S 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Variably cloudy. Isolated showers and thunderstorms possible. Humid. Lows in the 60s. Wind SW 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
SUNDAY: Sun/cloud intervals. Isolated showers possible morning and midday and again late day. Highs around 70 by midday but cooling in the afternoon. Wind W to NW increasing to 15-30 MPH with higher gusts.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy with a risk of isolated showers. Lows in the 50s. Wind NW to N 15-25 MPH with higher gusts.
MONDAY: Partly sunny. Highs in the 60s. Wind N 15-25 MPH with higher gusts.
TUESDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows from the upper 40s to middle 50s. Highs around 70.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs from the middle 70s to lower 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 16-20)…
Mainly dry with a trend to near to above normal temperatures by the end of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 21-25)…
A couple disturbances bring brief shower/thunderstorm threats otherwise overall pattern is likely to be dry with near to above normal temperatures.

Friday Forecast / Fast Flow

3:38AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 10-14)…
As we enter the middle of June, we continue in the pattern of holding the heat well back to the west of New England while a series of troughs swinging through the Northeast hold the temperatures generally lower than seasonal averages. A very fast-flowing jet stream will be nearby or over New England during this time, and will play a role in this weekend’s forecast. First though, we start with today being a similar day to yesterday in that we’ll see a sun/cloud mix, dry and cool air, and a gusty breeze, though not nearly as strong as it was yesterday. Energy coming over the top of a ridge in central Canada will ride the jet stream rapidly southeastward into New England this weekend. As warm air tries to advance in but is deflected mainly southwest of New England, cloudiness and some passing wet weather is probable on Saturday. The uncertainty is how far eastward any rain will be and exact timing, though I favor midday to late afternoon. We’ll barely get into the warmer air briefly for the early hours of Sunday, but it will really be noticeable in terms of an increase in humidity for a few hours and not so much in terms of actual warmth as it will coincide with the time of minimal heating in the overnight to early morning hours. A cold front will drop through the region by the middle of Sunday with passing showers or thunderstorms possible ahead of it. Behind this front another shot of cool air along with windy conditions will overtake the region later Sunday and continue on Monday into Tuesday as low pressure intensifies over the Canadian Maritimes.
TODAY: Isoalted early-morning light showers, otherwise cloud/sun mix. Highs from middle 60s to lower 70s. Wind W 5-15 MPH but may turn onshore immediate coast by afternoon.
TONIGHT: Decreasing clouds. Lows from middle 40s to lower 50s. Wind light variable.
SATURDAY: Increasing clouds. Passing showers and a slight risk of thunderstorms northwest to southeast midday and afternoon. Highs from upper 60s to middle 70s. Wind SE to S 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Isolated showers and thunderstorms possible. More humid. Lows from upper 50s to middle 60s. Wind S to SW 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy through midday with isolated to scattered showers and a slight risk of thunderstorms. Mostly sunny afternoon. Humid early, then drying. Highs from upper 60s to middle 70s. Wind W to NW increasing to 15-25 MPH with higher gusts.
MONDAY: Variably cloudy. Isolated showers. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 60s.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers. Lows in the 50s. Highs around 70.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 15-19)…
A brief blocking pattern will set up with a trough slowly dropping southward through the northeastern US as a ridge builds in central to east central Canada then starts to push the trough southeastward by the end of the period. This pattern will result in below normal temperatures with one or two disturbances bringing a shower risk during the June 15-17 period followed by dry weather and a potential rapid warm-up at the very end of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 20-24)…
Upper level high pressure is expected to dominate with a dry pattern and temperatures near to above normal during much of this period, but the jet stream close enough means a disturbance may arrive with a risk of showers/thunderstorms at some point later in the period.

Thursday Forecast / Two Cool

2:05AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 9-13)…
Two cool days courtesy a northwest flow and a trough of low pressure over New England. The trough will result in occasional cloudiness, but there will not be enough instability or moisture around for any shower activity across southern New England through Friday. An approaching disturbance from the Great Lakes will turn the wind more southwesterly Saturday, allowing it to warm up somewhat, but cloudiness will also eventually dominate and this may lead to some shower activity at night or early Sunday. During Sunday, a cold front will sweep through the region from northwest to southeast, and send another unseasonably cool air mass into the region for Monday as the trough sharpens up just east of the region again. In fact, low pressure forming on the cold front after it goes by may intensify fairly rapidly offshore, almost like a cold season system, aiding in the delivery of cool air, but probably too far out for any wet weather.
TODAY: Partly cloudy. Highs middle 60s to lower 70s. Wind NW 15-25 MPH with gusts 30-40 MPH.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows upper 40s to lower 50s. Wind NW 10-20 MPH with gusts around 30 MPH.
FRIDAY: Partly sunny. Highs middle 60s to lower 70s. Wind NW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows middle 40s valleys to lower 50s coast. Wind light W.
SATURDAY: Sun followed by clouds. Risk of showers at night. Highs in the 70s.
SUNDAY: Cloudy to partly sunny and breezy. Risk of showers through midday. Lows in the 50s. Highs around 70.
MONDAY: Variably cloudy and windy. Lows in the 40s. Highs in the 60s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 14-19)…
Low pressure offshore may keep it quite cool and breezy with at least some cloudiness Tuesday June 14. Dry weather is expected to dominate the remainder of the period with below normal temperatures at first, moderating to near normal by the end of the period (June 18-19 weekend).

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 20-24)…
Pattern re-configures itself to eventually let high pressure dominate the upper levels, centered in the Midwest but pushing the jet stream further north and allowing some warm to hot weather to push eastward and push temperatures to near to above normal levels with mainly dry
weather, just a couple episodes of showers/thunderstorms possible depending on the track of passing disturbances.

Wednesday Forecast

7:25AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 8-12)…
Sun starts the day but clouds will arrive and others will develop during the day as a disturbance approaches from the west northwest. The main thrust of this disturbance will be across CT, RI, and southern MA, where the most widespread shower and thunderstorm activity is expected, but scattered showers/storms will form elsewhere due to very cold air aloft making it unstable. Though severe storms are not expected, the cold air aloft will make it possible for small hail to occur in some showers/storms. Things quiet down tonight but then we’re set up for a couple fair but very cool days Thursday and Friday. This weekend, a disturbance will dive out of the Great Lakes, likely passing just southwest of New England but close enough for the risk of some unsettled weather by later Saturday and especially Sunday.
TODAY: Sunshine dominates into mid morning then clouds take over. Showers and thunderstorms likely in southern areas with scattered showers and storms developing to the north. Small hail possible in some of these. Highs in the upper 60s to middle 70s. Wind W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy early with any showers ending. Partly cloudy overnight. Lows in the 50s. Wind NW 10-20 MPH and gusty.
THURSDAY: Partly cloudy. Highs in the middle to upper 60s. Wind NW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the upper 40s to middle 50s. Highs in the 60s.
SATURDAY: Increasing clouds. Risk of showers at night. Lows in the upper 40s to middle 50s. Highs in the upper 60s to lower 70s.
SUNDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers. Lows in the upper 50s to lower 60s. Highs in the 70s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 13-17)…
Risk of rain or showers at times as we’ll be in a boundary zone between cool air hanging on over New England and the Canadian Maritimes and building heat in the Midwest.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 18-22)…
The trend will be for a more westerly flow, a disturbance or two with a shower and thunderstorm threat, but mostly fair weather and warming temperatures.

Tuesday Forecast

7:38AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 7-11)…
A cold front and an upper level disturbance will set of scattered showers and thunderstorms today. A second disturbance will set off additional showers and storms Wednesday. There is a slight risk of a few severe storms today, and much less of a risk of severe storms Wednesday through some of those storms may contain small hail due to cold air aloft. Dry weather is expected Thursday and Friday, and may last at least into Saturday though we’ll have to watch a disturbance coming out of the Great Lakes by the start of the weekend.
TODAY: Partly sunny. Scattered showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon with a few strong storms possible. Highs in the 70s coastal locations, lower to middle 80s interior. Wind SW to S 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Scattered showers and thunderstorms possible before midnight. Lows in the 50s. Wind W 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Scattered showers and a few thunderstorms, mainly in the afternoon, a few of which may produce small hail. Highs in the upper 60s to middle 70s. Wind W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
THURSDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 60s.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the upper 40s to middle 50s. Highs in the 60s.
SATURDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the upper 40s to middle 50s. Highs in the upper 60s to lower 70s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 12-16)…
Risk of rain or showers at times as we’ll be in a boundary zone between cool air hanging on over New England and the Canadian Maritimes and building heat in the Midwest.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 17-21)…
The struggle between a trough and cool weather and some building heat to the west continues early in the period with some unsettled weather and variable temperatures, and then it turns warmer to hotter later in the period.

Monday Forecast

7:33AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 6-10)…
Drying out today and quite warm on the back side of the broad low pressure area that brought yesterday’s wet weather. A trough hangs out over the Northeast this week and after today’s warmth we have a shot of showers and thunderstorms from a passing disturbance aloft and stronger cold front at the surface moving through on Tuesday. Cooler air arrives Wednesday but another potent upper level disturbance may kick off some additional showers and a few thunderstorms Wednesday, and with very cold air aloft some small hail is a possibility as well. Drier but quite cool weather is expected Thursday and Friday.
TODAY: Partly cloudy early, then mostly sunny. Highs 70s Cape Cod, 80s elsewhere (may hit 90 a few interior valley areas). Wind W 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows in the upper 50s to lower 60s. Wind light W.
TUESDAY: Partly sunny. Scattered showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon with a few strong storms possible. Highs in the 70s coastal locations, lower to middle 80s interior. Wind SW to S 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lingering scattered showers possible early. Lows in the 50s. Wind W 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Scattered showers and a few thunderstorms, mainly in the afternoon, a few of which may produce small hail. Highs in the upper 60s to middle 70s. Wind W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
THURSDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 60s.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the upper 40s to middle 50s. Highs in the 60s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 11-15)…
The weekend of June 11-12 is uncertain because of the timing of a couple disturbances moving northwest to southeast out of the Great Lakes region, and how close they will be to New England. For now will go with a risk of a couple showery periods from later June 11 into June 12 but a large portion of the weekend will likely end up rain-free with temperatures remaining generally below normal. This may repeat again during the June 13-15 period as heat builds in the Midwest and cool weather tries to hang on to New England.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 16-20)…
The struggle between a trough and cool weather and some building heat to the west continues early in the period with some unsettled weather and variable temperatures, and then it turns warmer to possibly hotter by the end of the period.

Sunday Forecast

2:44AM

DAYS 1-5 (MAY 5-9)…
All is on track as a broad area of low pressure has spread its canopy of cloudiness across the region. Initial rain from this system will be spotty, light, and mostly northwest of Boston through early afternoon, and then a couple to a few rounds of moderate to heavy rain will cross the region from southwest to northeast later in the afternoon into tonight, with a good chance of some embedded thunder too. There will be no severe storms, however, as that support for that activity will be far to the south, across the Middle Atlantic States. Behind this rain, drier air moves in Monday on the south side of this elongated low, and it will be rather warm, but still unstable enough so that a shower or thunderstorm may pop up during the day. Another disturbance comes along with a risk of additional showers later Tuesday. A shot of unseasonably cool air will follow this for midweek, with a few instability showers Wednesday and dry weather Thursday.
TODAY: Overcast. Areas of fog Cape Cod early. Scattered very light rain mainly northwest of Boston at times through early afternoon. General areas of rain, some moderate to heavy, and a chance of embedded thunder, moving in from southwest to northeast later in the day. Highs 64-72, coolest South Coast. Wind SE 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Overcast through midnight with episodes of rain and possible thunder. Breaking clouds overnight. Lows 57-64. Wind S to SW 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated showers or thunderstorms possible. Highs 78-86. Wind W 10-20 MPH.
TUESDAY: Variably cloudy. Scattered midday and afternoon showers and thunderstorms. Lows 55-62. Highs 68-76.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Morning showers likely. Isolated afternoon showers. Lows 55-62. Highs 66-74.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 48-55. Highs 65-72.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 10-14)…
Cool with risk of rain late June 10. Isolated showers and cool June 11. Fair and milder June 12. Mild with a risk of rain or showers June 13. Chance of showers/thunderstorms June 14, warmer at that time.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 15-19)…
Fair and cooler early in the period. Risk of brief rain mid to late period with moderating temperatures.

Saturday Forecast

2:53AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 4-8)…
A split weekend. Though not totally sunny today, the feel of summer will be there as dew points are up around 60 or in the lower 60s. However, with weak pressure gradient, even though the air mass is warm, there will be a sea breeze near the coast, making it cooler there. Look for low cloudiness in some locations to start the day, even some areas of fog around Cape Cod and the Islands, with that burning away and then some pop up fair weather clouds during the day. A broad area of low pressure will track through the Great Lakes and eventually north of New England Sunday and Monday. The approach of this low will be the reason why Sunday’s weather will be overcast with periods of rain, and though any rain is needed, this particular rain is poorly timed in terms of outdoor activities, many of which are planned graduation ceremonies. By Monday, drier air will arrive and only a few instability showers are possible in the westerly flow on the back side of the low. On Tuesday, another disturbance will come along and produce the chance of a few showers and thunderstorms, but at this moves by, it will sharpen up the trough over the northeast and pull down some cool air from Canada by the middle of next week.
TODAY: Areas of low clouds favoring eastern MA and NH Seacoast and some fog especially Cape Cod and Islands early into mid morning, otherwise sun mixed with clouds. Highs 65-70 outer Cape Cod and Islands, 70s other coastal areas but warmest late morning then cooling, 80-85 interior locations. Wind light variable with sea breezes developing.
TONIGHT: Increasing clouds. Lows 55-60. Wind light SE.
SUNDAY: Overcast. Patchy rain areas in the morning favoring locations west and north of Boston. More widespread areas of rain arriving during the afternoon with a slight chance of embedded thunder. Highs 65-72. Wind SE 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Mainly cloudy with numerous to scattered showers. Lows 55-62. Wind SW 10-20 MPH.
MONDAY: Partly sunny. Isolated showers and a slight chance of thunderstorms. Highs in the 70s. Wind W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TUESDAY: Variably cloudy. Late day or evening showers and thunderstorms possible. Lows around 60. Highs around 80 except cooler South Coast.
WEDNESDAY: Partly sunny and windy. Lows in the 50s. Highs around 70.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 9-13)…
Mainly fair but below normal temperatures June 9-11. Shower risk increases as temperatures moderate toward the end of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 14-18)…
Another cool-down early to mid period with a shower threat to start, then drier weather. Brief wet weather may introduce warmer air by the end of the period.

Friday Forecast

7:34AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 3-7)…
Cold front pushes through today with scattered showers. A split weekend with high pressure bringing nice late spring / early summer weather Saturday then a progressive but potent low pressure system bringing a good chance of rain and possible thunderstorms Sunday. The rain is badly needed by the timing is not great as many graduations are scheduled for Sunday around the area, so if you are involved in or attending one, be ready for whatever “Plan B” is for that school because it may very likely happen. Drier weather arrives for Monday behind this system but another disturbance will bring more cloudiness and the threat of a few showers again during Tuesday.
TODAY: Mostly cloudy. A few episodes of scattered showers. Highs from the middle 60s South Coast and Cape Cod to the lower and middle 70s elsewhere. Wind S to SW 10-20 MPH.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 50s. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY: Partly cloudy. Highs from the upper 60s to middle 70s Cape Cod and coastal areas, upper 70s to middle 80s interior locations. Wind W to variable 5-15 MPH with developing sea breezes.
SUNDAY: Cloudy. Increasing chance of rain. Lows upper 50s to lower 60s. Highs middle to upper 60s.
MONDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of showers. Slight risk of thunderstorms. Lows in the 60s. Highs upper 60s to middle 70s.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers. Slight risk of thunderstorms. Lows in the upper 50s to middle 60s. Highs in the 70s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 8-12)…
Fair weather June 8-9. Risk of showers returns June 10 into June 11 before fair weather returns later June 11 into June 12. Temperatures mostly below normal to start then moderating to closer to normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 13-17)…
No major changes. A continued progressive pattern dominated by a broad trough Great Lakes to Northeast will bring a couple of disturbances through the region with uncertain timing this far in advance. Episodes of wet weather would likely be brief and on the lighter side. Temperatures near to below normal.

Thursday Forecast

1:35AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 2-6)…
Today will be dominated by easterly flow from high pressure to the northeast of New England, which will then turn southerly ahead of an approaching cold front on Friday which will bring some scattered showers. During this time the remains of what was once briefly TS Bonnie will pass harmlessly out to sea south of New England, as had been anticipated. High pressure builds in for a great Saturday but quickly gives way to low pressure approaching from the west Sunday, which will bring a chance of rain (timing uncertain at this point). By Monday, this area will be on the back side of the system, the center of which passes to the north early in the day, with a moderate westerly flow but some unstable air, meaning that the chance of a few showers or thunderstorms will exist.
TODAY: Variable amounts of low ocean cloudiness, likely most prominent near eastern coastal areas of MA. Highs ranging from the lower 60s Cape Cod and immediate coastal areas of MA and NH to around 70 over the interior. Wind E to SE 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Partly to mostly cloudy. Lows from the middle 50s to around 60. Wind SE to S 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Mostly cloudy. A few episodes of scattered showers. Highs from the middle 60s South Coast and Cape Cod to the lower and middle 70s elsewhere. Wind S to SW 10-20 MPH.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 50s. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs from the upper 60s to middle 70s Cape Cod and coastal areas, upper 70s to lower 80s interior locations. Wind W to variable 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY: Cloudy. Increasing chance of rain. Lows upper 50s to lower 60s. Highs middle to upper 60s.
MONDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of showers. Slight risk of thunderstorms. Lows in the 60s. Highs upper 60s to middle 70s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 7-11)…
Another disturbance coming through a broad trough over the northeastern US brings a chance of additional showers June 7. Fair weather returns June 8 and 9. Progressive pattern brings the next disturbance and shower threat June 10 before fair weather returns June 11.

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 1-5)…
Welcome to June, the first day of hurricane season (though we’ve already had 2 named storms this year), the first day of meteorological summer (though we’ve already had some summery weather and summer’s actual beginning is still 20 days away). 🙂 Regardless of what we label today, the weather is still what it is, and we’ll be seeing a cooling trend the next couple days as the winds turn northerly to easterly. Sunshine will dominate today and cloudiness will prevail for at least part of Thursday, thanks to low level ocean moisture coming in. By Friday, a cold front approaching from the west will shift winds to the south and bring the chance of showers. Timing is uncertain on the showers but will fine-tune that as best as possible by tomorrow. The weekend looks like a split at this point, with high pressure bringing nice weather Saturday and approaching low pressure bringing a return to cloudiness and eventually wet weather at some point on Sunday.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs upper 60s to middle 70s, coolest eastern coastal areas. Wind N shifting to E 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Increasing clouds east to west. Lows middle to upper 50s. Wind E up to 10 MPH.
THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy to partly sunny. Highs middle 60s to lower 70s, coolest eastern coastal areas. Wind E to SE 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showres. Lows in the 60s. Highs middle 60s to lower 70s.
SATURDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 50s. Highs upper 60s to middle 70s.
SUNDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of rain by late in the day. Lows in the 50s. Highs middle 60s to lower 70s.

Departing low pressure brings a chance of showers early June 6. Another disturbance brings another chance of showers later June 7 into June 8. Fair weather June 9-10. Temperatures mostly below normal for this period.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 11-15)…
A couple rounds of showers mixed with periods of fair weather. Temperatures near to below normal overall.
