The Week Ahead

156 Comments

12:12AM

Summertime and the weather matches it, and will for the entire week ahead. In the Northeast we will sit in a weakness between ridges to the West and East. This will result in some episodes of showers and thunderstorms, but much of the time it will be rain-free. The dominant weather will be warm to hot, humid conditions, the heat being more dominant through Wednesday before relaxing some later in the week.

Forecast for southeastern New England…

OVERNIGHT: Variably cloudy. Patchy fog. Lows in the 60s. Wind W 5-10 MPH.

MONDAY: Partly cloudy to mostly sunny. Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms mainly in the afternoon and mainly over northern MA and southern NH. Highs around 90 except cooler some South Coast areas. Wind W 5-15 MPH.

MONDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows from the middle 60s to lower 70s. Wind light W.

TUESDAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy. Isolated thunderstorms northern MA and southern NH in the afternoon. Highs around 90, cooler South Coast. Wind W 5-15 MPH.

WEDNESDAY: Partly cloudy. Low 68. High 88.

THURSDAY: Variably cloudy. Isolated showers/thunderstorms. Low 65. High 80.

FRIDAY: Variably cloudy. Scattered showers/thunderstorms. Low 64. High 79.

SATURDAY: Partly sunny. Isolated showers/thunderstorms. Low 64. High 81.

SUNDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated showers/thunderstorms. Low 66. High 83.

  1. Thanks TK !

    Great call about 3 to 4 days ago, looking ahead to later this week. As I recall, you didnt buy into the trof near the east coast and thought it would be further west and sure enough, thats how it looks like its going to evolve. The AC’s are going to be humming all week long.

    Last day of the school year 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

    I feel for many of the districts that are going until late this week. Many school buildings are going to be extremely uncomfortable.

    2. Tom, I’m happy for you. Enjoy your vacation. Pembroke is out tomorrow with 1/2 day. I hope this weather holds for my first pool party this Saturday.

  2. Good Morning All 🙂 NWS is calling for 95 degrees in Boston for both today and tomorrow. If we hit 95+ today we could break a record. What are the chances of that?
    Enjoy the summer weather, it’s finally here!

  3. Thanks TK. First full week of summer will feel very summerlike. With the heating can’t rule out isolated thunderstorms to develop. I am giving them a 1 today and tomorrow since they will be non severe.

  4. Thank you TK – and welcome to summer vacation Tom! My grandson is upset….wonder how long before he begins to look forward to vacations?? Kindergarten last day is tomorrow…the rest of the grades finish Wednesday and it will be miserable in those room.

    76.9 with a 70 dp here and ACs and fans on!

  6. I don’t see the humidity coming down to comfortable levels anytime soon. Look at those overnight lows which is a good indication of how dry or muggy the air is going to be the next day. When there in the 50s that is a dry airmass. When lows are in the mid 60s and higher that is a sticky airmass.

    Looks like a real STINKER today. 😀

    Not to my liking. My ideal Summer day is about 85 F with dewpoint in the 50s to no more than about 60. I don’t like it with dew point in the 40s, that’s too dry.
    And yes, I am very particular.

    1. From NWS at Taunton:

      DRY CONDITIONS THROUGH THE MORNING BUT THEN WILL HAVE TO MONITOR MID
      LEVEL LOW CURRENTLY EXITING THE OH VALLEY. THIS FEATURE WILL LIKELY
      PRODUCE AFTERNOON/EVENING TSTMS ACROSS MUCH OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
      TODAY…AS MID LEVEL FLOW BECOMES WEAKLY CYCLONIC AND TEMPS ALOFT
      COOL A BIT ENHANCING MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES. THIS COMBINED WITH ML
      CAPES OF 1000-2000J/KG SHOULD SUPPORT AT LEAST MODEST UPDRAFTS

      Not bad enough to have the HEAT, have to add in Downpours when we have
      had ENOUGH RAIN ALREADY! 😀

      1. That heavy rain is going to be the big threat with the storms that do develop as oppossed to a severe weather
        threat. When the front gets closer later in the week the activity COULD be strong to POSSIBLY severe.

    1. Storms already popping in Up-State New York:

      http://www.wunderground.com/radar/radblast.asp?zoommode=pan&prevzoom=zoom&num=10&frame=0&delay=15&scale=1.000&noclutter=0&ID=ENX&type=N0R&showstorms=0&lat=0&lon=0&label=you&map.x=400&map.y=240&scale=1.000&centerx=400&centery=240&showlabels=1&rainsnow=0&lightning=1&lerror=20&num_stns_min=2&num_stns_max=9999&avg_off=9999&smooth=0

      Not sure how this translates to our area, if at all. 😀 Just noting that storms
      are popping EARLY.

    1. I’m with you Hadi. But it is what it is (who says that?:D)

      We’ll just have to deal with it.

      I hope the Bruins have some ICE tonight! 😀 😀 😀

      1. From The Bruins Website Bruins.nhl.com:

        BERGERON LIKELY TO PLAY
        Patrice Bergeron will dress for warm-up tonight and Coach is “feeling confident he will play.”

        After watching him deplane yesterday and get into a vehicle, I DON’T see how he plays. We shall see.

  11. SPC has upgraded our area to slight risk of severe storms:

    http://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/outlook/day1otlk_1630.gif

    PERHAPS AIDED BY FORCING ASSOCIATED WITH THE EASTWARD PROGRESSION OF AN IMPULSE WITHIN THE MAIN WESTERLIES…ACROSS EASTERN CANADA…GUIDANCE IS SUGGESTIVE THAT A CYCLONIC VORTICITY CENTER …WITHIN WEAK FLOW TO THE NORTH OF THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE…MAY ACCELERATE EAST OF THE NORTH CENTRAL APPALACHIANS…THROUGH SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND/NORTHERN MID ATLANTIC COASTAL AREAS.

    here’s guessing that a S-Tstorm Watch will be issued a little later this PM.

    1. From NWS at Taunton:

      WITH THE HOT TEMPERATURES AND HIGH HUMIDITY ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND THIS AFTERNOON…SB CAPE VALUES ARE UPWARDS OF 2500 J/KGAND ML CAPE VALUES ARE IN THE 2000-2500 J/KG RANGE. SO THERE IS PLENTY OF INSTABILITY IN THE ATMOSPHERE. A SHORTWAVE MOVING ACROSS THE STATE OF PENNSYLVANIA AT THIS TIME WILL BE THE INSTIGATOR OF
      STORMS ACROSS OUR AREA. THE ONE LIMITING FACTOR FOR SEVERE STORMS IS THE LACK OF SHEAR.

    1. Capes up to 2500!!!

      That’s enough to do the job. We’ll see. See SPC and NWS discussion above. 😀

  15. The shear is not particularly strong for the area which COULD be a limiting factor for severe weather. The mulcapes COULD off set that being that there up there in the 2500 area.

    1. JJ, yes, but there is a reason WHY the SPC has us in the Slight Risk Zone.
      The combination of the Capes, the heat and the humidity along with the
      lift provided by the short wave “could” combine to provide some juicy
      fireworks. In any case, very likely to get t-storms with downpours. 😀

      Some storms now developing East of the CT River:

      1. Special Weather Statement issued by the NWS office from Taunton about those storms you were talking about.
        In addition Severe Thunderstorm Watch up for a good chunk of the Mid Atlantic until 10pm. Will see if a watch
        is issued here.

            …STRONG THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE IN SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND BETWEEN
            4 PM AND 8 PM…

            AT 230 PM EDT…A FEW THUNDERSTORMS HAD FORMED JUST EAST OF THE
            CONNECTICUT RIVER IN NEW HAMPSHIRE AND MASSACHUSETTS…AND WERE
            MOVING EAST AT 30 MPH.

            THESE STORMS WILL BRING BRIEFLY HEAVY RAINFALL TO AREAS NEAR THE
            QUABBIN RESERVOIR THROUGH 330 PM.

            MORE STORMS FORMING IN CENTRAL AND EASTERN NEW YORK WILL ARRIVE IN
            SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND BETWEEN 4 PM AND 8 PM. THESE STORMS WILL HAVE
            THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE WIND GUSTS TO 40 MPH…HEAVY RAIN AND
            FREQUENT LIGHTNING.

            1. I have to say, they appear to be PULSE type storms, where they get juicy, but\not enough shear to keep them going, so they die out, with others forming.

              Those initial storms just East of CT River all DIED off with some new ones forming to the South of that area.

              So we shall see what happens. 😀

    1. It’s even WARM in my office.

      I can’t perform at work when it is Warm OR Cold. It has to be in my
      comfort range. 😀

      It’s at least 80 in my office. That’s a bit too high, but a whole lot better
      than 95! 😀

  20. Today’s 90s have Logan at 4. Based on what I’ve seen, tomorrow is #5, and Wednesday and maybe Thursday have possibilities. Logan could be headed into July with anywhere btwn 5-7 (90F) days so far. I was curious as to what July had brought us in the past, as I’m starting to wonder if Logan has a shot at 20 (90F) days this summer.

    2012 : 6
    2011 : 10
    2010 : 10
    2009 : 0 ( does everyone remember this summer, er … um, extended spring )
    2008 : 4

  25. According to Pete and Mike Waunkum no thunderstorms are likely inside 495 due to it actually being “too hot” for any storms to form (much like it being “too cold” to snow in the wintertime). That is fine with me. 🙂

    1. Hmmmmm another reason not to like too hot …… You’d think I’d feel the same about too cold but IMHO it can never be too cold. Seems I just might have a slight prejudice…no?

    2. That is Meteorological Facuckta!! 😀 😀

      There may be another reason, but it ain’t the heat.

      I’ve seem vicious storms after it being 100+ during the day.

      Btw, storms POPPING INSIDE of 495!!

      1. Sorry guys, after all it was too Hot to Rain. 😀 😀 😀

        Pretty decent T-storm earlier here. Last I checked we are WAY inside 495. 😀 😀

        Go Bruins!! 1-1 with a period to go.

        Tuukka gave up a goal that should not have been. A 5 hole goal always should
        be stopped! Otherwise, he’s been Great.

        C’mon Tuuka, no more goals tonight!

  28. and the sky goes dark
    sunny all day, when i get home. it all goes dark and lighning and thunder. so i can not go in my pool. :(… Keep this heat durring the weekends. with 80s in the weekdays

      1. seeing lots of cloud to ground lightning, saw a few sideways fork. and i believe ball lightning hit the lare willow tree in the marshland , also the house just rattled. though not getting much rain.. i think the rain is just to the south of me and also to the north. since it seems like im in between the two. the one to the south is more powerful and closer.

  30. Sprinkling here and as tom said windy. Just gusted to 28. We grabbed the umbrella out of the holder. Don’t want to lose a second table.

  31. Vivid Lightning with torrential downpours here in Hingham. Some lightning strikes within 1/4 mile. Windows are all closed, antennas are disconnected as well as internet to main computer. Working on the laptop now. With all the rain that’s falling it’s going to be really steamy later.

    1. Headed this way, lots of lightning and thunder …… That cell over Hingham is trying to nose its way southward a bit and there’s another one strengthening to my west …. I am not surprised, it is still extremely warm out.

    2. Lots of thunder not too far from us and lightning also. Not sure where its from. You are like I am. Everything goes off when there is a tstorm. I even unplug everything Hooked to my computer figuring a surge could travel to it from another device.

      1. Vicki I hung the internet coax and phone connection to the modem out the window LOL…only thing I could do. Unplugged the modem and it’s connection to the computer and unplugged the computer.

        Tom…right now I’m see very intense lightning to my SE…probably over Norwell and heading towards Scituate

  34. Very intense and dangerous storm in Pembroke. I swear it sounds like the rain is denting my truck. Major lighting, intense.

  36. Some storms are moving NW to SE others SW to NE…interesting.

    Another weaker storm seems to be heading toward Hingham now…more lightning.

    1. I saw that also. The storm over the south shore moved s/SE from Boston and the one over here is moving N/slightly NE just to the west of it. Pretty cool to watch.

  37. Thanks TK!

    Thank goodness for AC, fans, etc…

    Hope everyone managed to stay cool and hydrated today!

  39. Lightening was crazy in Quincy when I left work at 8:40. One bolt after another but no rain. I I k that is what ended up hitting you Tom,Keith and John.

  42. I just picked up a new consulting assignment, andI can’t think about anything 🙁 🙁 🙁

    2. Good luck and congrats

      I’m sorry everyone. I don’t think it helps to say it sure seemed to be a well matched series with both teams certainly deserving to be there. Such a letdown for you all I know 🙁

  43. A great series !Thought we had it last night. Back to work today and ready to catch up with SOX, Doc Rivers and Aaron Hernandez !!

  44. 24 hr day to day comparison, as of 8am, shows Logan +1F vs yesterday at this time, however, the dewpoint is 5F lower. Mt. Washington is running 2F cooler than this time yesterday.

  45. From NWS at Taunton this AM:

    EXPECT CONVECTIVE TEMP TO BE REACHED…DEVELOPING
    SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. DUE TO LACK OF FORCING BELIEVE THESE STORMS WILL PULSE MORE THAN YESTERDAY. EXPECT MU CAPE VALUES TO BE AROUND 3500 J/KG…DEWPOINTS IN THE UPPER 60S TO LOW 70S…AND PWAT VALUES AROUND 1.5-2 INCHES FOR THIS AFTERNOON. BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF SHEAR AND FORCING EXPECT STRONG THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON WITH HEAVY DOWNPOURS…WIND GUSTS AROUND 40-50 MPH AND PEAS SIZE HAIL.

    According to the SPC only Northern NE is in the Slight Risk Zone.

    Record high for today is 97, I believe. Probably won’t reach it, but with this air mass,
    it is a possibility.

    Some intense lightening last evening.

    Regarding the Bruins….I think they got a little ahead of themselves at the end of the game looking forward to heading back to Chicago and that was the kiss of death.
    They literally fell asleep and let Chicago take it to them. So sad. Oh well, there’s always next year and now we have the Red Sox and Patriots training camp just around the corner. We’ll survive.

    Have a great day all. 😀

  47. Sorry to all the bruins fans, it’ll be ok but congrats to the bruins for a good season, time to focus in on Patriots football 🙂 good day all

  48. Still stunned about the Bruins loss from last night. I really thought there would be a game 7.
    Back to the weather same old song and dance with the heat and humidity along with the threat of thunderstorms.
    The storm prediction center has us in a slight risk for severe storms. The JKG’s again are very impressive but the shear is lacking again. As we saw yesterday even with the weak shear there were some severe storms across SNE yesterday.

  49. From the storm prediction center
    …PA/NY INTO NEW ENGLAND…
    MULTIPLE MODEL SOLUTIONS SUGGEST THAT SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL
    DEVELOP BY LATE MORNING OVER PARTS OF NY/PA AND SPREAD EASTWARD INTO
    NEW ENGLAND THIS AFTERNOON. THE 12Z BUF SOUNDING CONFIRMS A MOIST
    AND UNSTABLE AIR MASS THAT WILL CONVECT RATHER EARLY. SUFFICIENT
    WESTERLY FLOW ALOFT AND MODERATE INSTABILITY WILL POSE A RISK OF
    GUSTY/DAMAGING WINDS AND HAIL IN THE STRONGER CORES. SUBSTANTIAL
    WESTERLY COMPONENT OF THE SURFACE WINDS SUGGEST THAT STRONG/SEVERE
    STORMS COULD MAKE IT ALL THE WAY TO THE SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND COAST
    LATE THIS AFTERNOON.

  50. Based on what happened I will never believe in the “too hot for thunderstorms” crap agan and it remains to be seen if I ever believe in the “too cold for snow” saying.

    I do hope the latter statement is false and that it can NEVER be too cold for snow. 😉

            1. I’m sorry, BUT I’ll never ever get over that one. That was one of the biggest whoppers I have ever heard. 😀

              Pure hogwash!

                1. This was a post from Yesterday:

                  Philip says:
                  June 24, 2013 at 5:41 PM
                  According to Pete and Mike Waunkum no thunderstorms are likely inside 495 due to it actually being “too hot” for any storms to form (much like it being “too cold” to snow in the wintertime). That is fine with me.

                2. Oldsalty Wankum said that. I was trying to get you to like him over the winter remember. Oh well.

    1. From the NWS not long ago:

      …STRONG THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE IN SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND BETWEEN 3 PM AND 8 PM…

      THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING OVER EASTERN AND CENTRAL NEW YORK WILL MOVE EAST INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR THESE THUNDERSTORMS TO BRING DAMAGING WEATHER IN MANY PARTS OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.

      THESE STORMS WILL BRING BRIEFLY HEAVY RAINFALL. THEY WILL ALSO HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE STRONG WIND GUSTS TO AT LEAST 50 MPH AND SMALL HAIL.

      1. And to me….Anytime hail gets involved, that speaks of the instability of the atmosphere and the strength of the storms which, in my mind, equates to SEVERE T-storms.

        1. Arod,

          I think the situation today will make for “marginally” severe storms and thus the reason NWS is saying
          “strong” storms. What’s strong and what’s severe??

          Here’s the definition:

          In the U.S., the National Weather Service defines a severe thunderstorm as having large hail of at least 1 inch (2.5 cm), severe (storm-force) winds of 58 miles per hour (93 km/h) or greater, 1 or more tornadoes (though this would result in a tornado warning), or any combination of the three.

          Seriously, how often do we see 1 inch hail? 58 mph winds? quite rare, especially in Eastern sections.

          It takes some doing to meet those criteria, thus when it is somewhat less, but still juicy they revert to “Strong”

          Well anyway, that’s my thinking on it. 😀

  55. 92F at Logan at 2pm, day #5 of the season.

    Perhaps by next Tuesday, a week from today, we’ll be discussing what’s more uncomfortable, 90F + heat or 70F- 75F dewpoints.

  56. Nothing cooking yet with the SPC. No Mesoscale discussions anywhere near
    our area. So far, so good. Will we escape?

    1. Storms too far to the west. By the time they make it, IF they make it, to our area, much of the strength of the storms could be squandered. I believe tomorrow will be a day for much more widespread activity due to the close promixity of a front in the area. There is no catalyst to spark widespread severe weather in eastern new england today (i.e. front/trough) especially once activity arrives from the west after sunset with loss of daytime heat.

      1. Yes, you may be correct. However, We’ll keep watching.
        Yesterday’s activity was pretty late in the day.
        I got the worse of it between 8:30 and 9PM. 😀

        1. Storms can certainly fire up during the evening hours especially when a catalyst (warm/cold front, short wave) is in the area to create instability. However, tonight, we lack that other than a weak disturbance to our north providing northern and western new england with the greatest storm threat.

          1. Ture, However, the SPC has us in the risk
            area for a reason. 😀

            We shall see.

            I for one am not feeling it. Temps and dew points are down from yesterday.

    2. This is because that is where a short wave is moving through triggering the severe weather up there.

  58. Upstate NY seems to be popping storms again this afternoon. As I recall it was about this time yesterday they were doing the same. Quite windy here – gusting into the teens. 88.7 with a 67 dp. I don’t believe we hit 90 today

  59. Storms breaking up as they hit the Berkshires. As expected, the strongest storms remain in northern and western new england. Different story tomorrow with a front in the vicinity.

    1. Looks like a recycled story from 1979. 😉

      We were supposed to be “under water” by the early 2000s. Still waiting. What has the sea level gone up, 2 inches? Mainly from large scale erosion? Yup that’s about it. 🙂

      Well-written story though. I give it a C+ … 😀

  61. arod is generally correct about today’s storm threat…. However we do have to watch a couple of those cells that can be short-lived intense cells when they interact with outflow boundaries from other storms or other local boundaries/elevation, depending on location.

    Update on the blog will be coming soon – sorry for the lengthy delay. Been shutting down a flare up of one of my health issues (not the heart this time), and been busy getting errands done before a work vacation (June 27-July 7). I will be around the blog throughout it.

      1. Hope you feel better TK. Looks like those cells are weakening as they progress eastward.

        1. Thanks! I’ll be fine. Just 1 of my few long-standing conditions. Remission for 8 years before this is not a bad thing. And I’ll be in remission again soon. 🙂

            1. Thankfully NOTHING that bad. It is an autoimmune condition, a cousin to lupus, but not nearly as serious as lupus. They are just cousins. It’s manageable, quite manageable. Just once in a while it gets ahead of me. 🙂

  62. Of all times my ac unit I was told is junk. Around 2,000 for a new one. I’ll find out tomorrow.

  65. Thanks to all of you! You all feel like extended family to me. 🙂

    Editing new blog now, almost done.

    Preview: Better chance of showers/storms tomorrow, and parts of Thursday through the weekend, but NOT raining all the time. Outdoor activities will get in but some will be delayed or postponed.

    Retrogression of the western Atlantic ridge may happen more quickly as we hit the first days of July. Trending the forecast for the first couple days of July in the HHH direction with less widespread t-storm activity.
