7:34AM

DAYS 1-5…
High pressure moves in today with refreshing air from Canada and lots of sun. The high starts to move away to the east northeast on Friday which will still be a nice day but feature more high cloudiness. Disturbance moves through from west to east Saturday with lots of clouds but only a few showers. Fair weather Sunday between the departure of Saturday’s disturbance and the arrival of another disturbance from the west Monday with another shot at showers as well as thunderstorms.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 70-75 coast, 75-80 interior. Wind light N to E.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows in the 50s interior, near 60 coast.
FRIDAY: Sun and high clouds. Highs 75-82, coolest coast. Wind light variable with sea breezes.
SATURDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of a few showers. Lows 60-65. Highs 75-82.
SUNDAY: Partly sunny. Lows 60-65. Highs 77-85.
MONDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of showers/thunderstorms. Lows in the 60s. Highs 77-85.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 21-25)…
Muggy with showers and thunderstorms possible July 21. Drier and warm July 22. Showers/thunderstorms around July 23-24 then drier and hotter at the end of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 26-30)…
Warmer to hotter pattern becoming more likely with a few passing showers/thunderstorms but largely dry weather during this period.

7:32AM

DAYS 1-5…
Muggy and unsettled today as a cold front pushes through and low pressure forms offshore. It all gets pushed out by high pressure which brings great weather Thursday and Friday. Humidity slowly returns over the weekend but the shower threat will be very limited with only a couple very weak disturbances around.
TODAY: Variably cloudy. Developing showers and possible thunderstorms in any area by midday but favoring southeastern MA and RI during the afternoon. A few downpours likely. Humid. Highs 75-83, cooler some coastal areas. Wind variable from N to E up to 10 MPH.
TONIGHT: Slow clearing. Drying out. Lows 60-65. Wind light N.
THURSDAY: Sunny. Highs around 80, cooler coast. Wind light N to E.
FRIDAY: Sunny. Lows 55-65, coolest interior valleys. Highs 75-85, coolest coast.
SATURDAY AND SUNDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated showers. Rain-free most of the time. Lows in the 60s. Highs 75-85, coolest in coastal areas.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 20-24)…
Muggy with showers and thunderstorms possible July 20-22. Drier July 23-24 with seasonable warmth.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 25-29)…
Temperatures above normal. Rainfall near to below normal.

7:26AM

DAYS 1-5…
TODAY: Variably cloudy. Showers and a slight chance of thunderstorms south to north morning through early afternoon. Isolated showers thereafter. Humid. Highs 70-75 coast, 75-80 interior. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Humid. Lows in the 60s. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers/thunderstorms. Humid. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 70s.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs 70s coast, 80-85 interior.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs 70s coast, 80-85 interior.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 80s except 75-80 South Coast.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 19-23)…
High pressure slips to the east and allows humidity and a slight risk of showers to return July 19. Upper level high pressure takes over in the southeastern US eventually wanting to push northward, but will still come into battle with a just stream over the northern US and southern Canada. Overall this is a warmer pattern with a few episodes of showers and thunderstorms in the middle to the end of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 24-28)…
Stronger high pressure ridge in the US Southeast and northward-displaced jet stream spells out hotter weather with less of a shower and thunderstorm threat overall during this period.

1:59AM

DAYS 1-5…
The work week (unless it’s a vacation week for you) will feature 3 humid days then 2 drier days.
A light wind flow becomes mostly southeast today as 2 fronts work into the region, one a weak warm front from the south, and the other a weak cold front from the north. The cold front will dissipate and the warm front will push through the region, providing enough focus for a few showers to pop up, mainly interior central to northern MA and southern NH. As the boundary lifts to the north a muggy southerly breeze will take over and last through Tuesday, which will be dominated by cloudiness and a slightly better risk of passing showers. Finally a cold front will push through the region on Wednesday with a better chance of showers/thunderstorms. By Thursday, a high pressure area will push all of the humid and unsettled weather eastward and a drier and mild air mass will replace the muggy one. Great Summer weather is likely on Friday as well as high pressure remains in control.
TODAY: Partly sunny. Isolated showers mainly east central to north central MA and southern NH favoring late morning through mid afternoon. More humid. Highs 70s coast, 80s interior. Wind light SE.
TONIGHT: Variably cloudy. Patchy fog. Humid. Lows in the 60s. Wind light S.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Isolated showers and a slight chance of thunderstorms. Humid. Highs 70-75 coast, 75-80 interior. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers/thunderstorms. Humid. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 70s.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs 70s coast, 80-85 interior.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs 70s coast, 80-85 interior.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 18-22)…
High pressure slips to the east and allows humidity and a slight risk of showers to return July 18-19. Upper level high pressure takes over in the southeastern US eventually wanting to push northward, but will still come into battle with a just stream over the northern US and southern Canada. Overall this is a warmer pattern with a few episodes of showers and thunderstorms in the middle to the end of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 23-27)…
Stronger high pressure ridge in the US Southeast and northward-displaced jet stream spells out hotter weather with less of a shower and thunderstorm threat overall during this period.

8:30AM

DAYS 1-5…
Great Summer weekend continues but once again as many other days have seen, there is areas of smoke high in the sky from the forest fires in Canada, and this will give the sky a more milky look rather than a deeper blue! Boston still has a shot at seeing their first 90 degree day since September 6 2014. It all comes down to wind direction. The edge comes off the warmth Monday as the wind starts to turn onshore across southeastern New England due to configuration of weak high pressure to the north and weak low pressure to the south. A low pressure trough will bring unsettled weather Tuesday and Wednesday, then this gets kicked offshore by high pressure with improving weather by Thursday.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny but sun filtered at times by smoke aloft. Highs 85-92. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows in the 60s. Wind light variable.
MONDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 78-86, coolest at the coast. Wind light S to SE.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers/thunderstorms. Lows in the 60s. Highs 75-83.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers/thunderstorms. Lows in the 60s. Highs 75-83.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs 78-85.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 17-21)…
A few showers and thunderstorms possible July 17 with a disturbance. A nice July 18-19. Another disturbance brings additional showers/thunderstorms around July 20-21. Temperatures near normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 23-26)…
Flat ridge expands into the Northeast with only isolated showers and thunderstorms and temperatures warming to above normal.

7:54AM

DAYS 1-5…
Great Summer weekend! No changes to previous discussion regarding the weather this weekend, which may feature the first 90 degree day in Boston since September 6 2014 (unless a sea breeze has something else to say about it). Still looking for another very warm day Monday then a slight cooling trend with unsettled weather Tuesday into Wednesday.
TODAY: Sunny. Highs 75-80 Cape Cod and Islands, 80s elsewhere. Wind light NW becoming variable with light sea breezes in coastal areas.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows in the 60s. Wind light W.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 85-92. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY: Partly sunny. Risk of showers/thunderstorms at night. Lows 64-72. Highs 82-90, cooler coast.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers/thunderstorms. Lows in the 60s. Highs 75-83.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of showers/thunderstorms. Lows in the 60s. Highs 75-83.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 16-20)…
Weak trough moves through the Northeast with a few episodes of showers and thunderstorms and temperatures near to slightly below normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 21-25)…
Flat ridge expands into the Northeast with only isolated showers and thunderstorms and temperatures warming to above normal.

7:20AM

DAY 1-5…
No major changes since yesterday’s update, though a little more confident that the threat of an isolated storm can be removed from Sunday’s forecast, making for a completely dry weekend and a nice feel of Summer without very high humidity.
TODAY: Cloudy with patchy fog into mid morning then clearing northwest to southeast remainder of day.
Highs 75-82. Wind variable becoming W 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Clear. Lows 58-65. Wind light W.
SATURDAY: Sunny. Highs 80-87, some upper 70s coast. Wind light W but with coastal sea breezes.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 60-67. Highs 83-90, cooler South Coast.
MONDAY: Partly sunny. Chance of afternoon showers and thunderstorms. Lows 63-70. Highs 85-92, cooler South Coast.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers. Lows 60-67. Highs 70-77.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 15-19)…
Low pressure trough dominates the weather with a couple additional episodes of showers and possible thunderstorms and higher humidity with near to slightly below normal temperatures during this period.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 20-24)…
Trough exits the Northeast, ridge builds into the eastern US during this period with the weather trending drier and hotter.

7:33AM

DAY 1-5…
A disturbance will pass just south of New England tonight. Ahead of it will be lots of high cloudiness, during its passage will come a package of rain and embedded thunderstorms for at least part of the region (will have to follow radar later today and tonight to see its exact configuration and area of impact), behind it will be some lingering showers and clouds to start Friday followed by improvement. This improvement will take full hold by later Friday and last through the weekend, which will turn warmer and more humid with time – a classic July feel. If you have any outdoor plans this weekend, you picked a good one. Though an isolated thunderstorm may visit a few areas by late Sunday, the vast majority of if not all of the area will be rain-free from midday Friday right through the weekend. The feel of Summer continues Monday before a cold front moves through with showers and thunderstorms more likely later Monday.
TODAY: Filtered to dimmed sun with lots of high clouds, with sun finally fading away by evening. Highs in the 70s, coolest coast. Wind light NE.
TONIGHT: Cloudy. A period or 2 of rain for many areas along with embedded thunderstorms possible. Some rain may be heavy. Lows in the 60s. Wind light variable.
FRIDAY: Mostly cloudy with lingering showers until mid morning. Breaking clouds late morning. Partly cloudy to mostly sunny afternoon. Highs 75-82. Wind variable becoming W 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 58-65. Highs 80-87, few cooler coastal areas.
SUNDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated thunderstorms possible late. Lows 60-67. Highs 83-90, few cooler coastal areas.
MONDAY: Partly sunny. Chance of afternoon showers and thunderstorms. Lows 63-70. Highs 85-92, cooler South Coast.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 14-18)…
Trough swings slowly through the Northeast with showers and thunderstorms to start the period and another potential period of unsettled weather from later July 16 to early July 18. Temperatures near to below normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 19-23)…
Trough exits the Northeast, ridge builds into the eastern US by later in the period with the weather trending drier and hotter.

7:28AM

DAYS 1-5…
Cold front slowly pushes through the region today with showers and eventually some thunderstorms. Greatest chance of storms will be in eastern MA and RI with some potential flash flooding. Front sits just off the South Coast by Thursday morning and a wave of low pressure coming along may produce additional showers especially near the South Coast. All clears away Friday as high pressure moves in for Summery weather into if not through the weekend. A front getting closer Sunday may introduce a shower and thunderstorm risk by then.
TODAY: Variably cloudy. Showers and thunderstorms likely by midday especially west of Boston and in the afternoon favoring eastern and southern MA through RI. Highs 70s South Coast, 80s elsewhere. Wind SW 10-20 MPH shifting to W during the afternoon.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Lows 60-65. Wind light N.
THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers. Highs in the 70s. Wind light NE.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows 60-65. Highs 78-85.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 60-65. Highs 80-87, cooler South Coast.
SUNDAY: Partly cloudy. Late-day thunderstorm possible. Lows 65-70. Highs 83-90, cooler South Coast.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 13-17)…
A shower and thunderstorm threat and cooling down July 13-14 as a trough moves through. Improving weather and warming up July 15-17.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 18-22)…
Temperatures near to above normal and rainfall near to below normal during this period. Pattern may be readjusting to more ridging in the eastern US and will watch for this possibility. May be slow to occur.

7:28AM

DAYS 1-5…
Warm front today / cold front Wednesday – still on the agenda. Timing of Wednesday’s cold front remains key to any potential for stronger or possibly severe storms. It looks like a slower-moving front taking its time getting through during the afternoon, so storms can fire along the boundary and be moderate to strong. There is an outside risk of a couple severe storms favoring eastern and southern MA down into RI. Thursday’s forecast is a little more uncertain as the front will be very close to the South Coast and a disturbance coming along will likely enhance cloudiness and the shower threat at some point. Better weather is still expected to return Friday and Saturday.
TODAY: Variably cloudy. Risk of passing showers. Humid. Highs 70s South Coast, 80-85 elsewhere. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Variably cloudy. Humid. Lows in the 60s. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Showers and thunderstorms likely by midday especially west of Boston and in the afternoon favoring eastern and southern MA through RI. Highs 70s South Coast, 80s elsewhere. Wind SW 10-20 MPH shifting to W during the afternoon.
THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers. Lows 60-65. Highs 75-83.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows 60-65. Highs 78-85.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 60-65. Highs 80-87.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 12-16)…
Summery Sunday July 12 but thunderstorms possible by late day. A shower and thunderstorm threat and cooling down July 13-14 as a trough moves through. Improving weather and warming up July 15-16.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 17-21)…
Temperatures near to above normal and rainfall near to below normal during this period. Pattern may be readjusting to more ridging in the eastern US and will watch for this possibility.

7:14AM

DAYS 1-5…
High pressure hangs on with another nice day to start the week, though there is still some smoke aloft in the sky from Canadian forest fires. Warm front / cold front combo still expected for Tuesday and Wednesday with more cloudiness, a risk of a few showers Tuesday and a better shot and showers and thunderstorms Wednesday. Timing of Wednesday’s cold front is key in determining high temperature and coverage and intensity of any thunderstorms. The earlier the front, the less intense the storms will likely be. A later frontal arrival would mean more heat and a stronger storms. Will try to pinpoint timing by tomorrow’s update. Drier air mass arrives Thursday but a disturbance aloft may bring at least some cloudiness and possibly a few showers. Great Summer weather arrives at the end of the week.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs in the 80s except 70s South Coast. Wind S up to 10 MPH.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 60s. Wind light S.
TUESDAY: Variably cloudy. Risk of brief periods of light rain. More humid. Highs 70s South Coast, 80-85 elsewhere. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Showers and thunderstorms likely in the afternoon. Lows 65-70. Highs 70s South Coast, 80s elsewhere. Wind SW 10-20 MPH.
THURSDAY: Partly sunny. Slight chance of showers. Lows 60-65. Highs 75-83.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows 60-65. Highs 78-85.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 11-15)…
Slowing timing of systems slightly to allow for a great Summer weekend July 11-12. Trough moving through from west brings the chance of showers/thunderstorms July 13-15. Temperatures near to above normal to start followed by a slight cooling trend.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 16-20)…
Flat ridge of high pressure from the South Central US through the Southeast and off into the Atlantic, still not far enough north to promote big heat in the Northeast, but jet stream far enough north to allow for near to above normal temperatures. Disturbances coming along the jet stream may produce a few episodes of showers/t-storms.

11:25AM

COMMENTARY…
Good day all! A little interruption in the great weather for Independence Day yesterday reminding us again of the uncertainty of weather forecasting. Where I expected the rain to fall stayed the driest. Where I expected would stay the driest got the most rain, not that it was a soaker of a day all day long in those areas of interior MA north and west of Boston and southern NH, but it rained there enough to disgruntle some people with outdoor plans. However, if you were patient, or timed things correctly, you had a wonderful evening to enjoy! And that was true of all areas as drier air moved in behind the disturbance, proving that going into this situation, many of the computer models were incorrect on timing and had the activity taking place later than it actually did. And now, time to look ahead…

DAYS 1-5…
Beautiful Summer day today as high pressure dominates. This holds into Monday – another great day! By Tuesday, a warm front crosses the region with more cloudiness and the risk of a few showers, as well as an increase in humidity. This sets up Wednesday as a potential day for heavy to severe thunderstorms as a cold front pushes into a warm and muggy air mass. I’m not going to try to say we’re in for it here this far in advance, but only want to alert you a few days in advance of the possibility of some big boomers somewhere in the region at that time. By Thursday, we’re into a drier airmass though a disturbance nearby may still kick off a few showers.
THIS AFTERNOON: Sunshine. Highs in the 80s except 70s Cape Cod. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 55-60 interior valleys, 60-65 elsewhere. Wind light W.
MONDAY: Sunny. Highs in the 80s except 70s South Coast. Wind S up to 10 MPH.
TUESDAY: Variably cloudy. Risk of brief periods of light rain. More humid. Lows 60-65. Highs 70s South Coast, 80-85 elsewhere.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Showers and thunderstorms likely in the afternoon. Lows 65-70. Highs 70s South Coast, 80s elsewhere. Wind SW 10-20 MPH.
THURSDAY: Partly sunny. Slight chance of showers. Lows 60-65. Highs 75-83.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 10-14)…
Great Summer weather Friday July 10 and Saturday July 11 with fair and warm conditions. Episodic showers/thunderstorms becoming more likely July 12-14 as a trough moves through the Northeast. Still no heatwaves in sight with temperatures close to normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 15-19)…
Flat ridge of high pressure from the South Central US through the Southeast and off into the Atlantic, still not far enough north to promote big heat in the Northeast, but jet stream far enough north to allow for near to above normal temperatures. Disturbances coming along the jet stream may produce occasional showers/t-storms typical of Summertime but overall rainfall will be near to below normal.

1:35AM

DAYS 1-5…
Happy Birthday to the USA! Here in southern New England, we won’t have a bright sunny day, and we won’t be seeing any blazing heat, but we will experience fairly decent conditions. Clouds will be dominant as a disturbance passes south of the region, but dry air in place will make most of the approaching rainfall dry up, and only a little may fall south of the Mass Pike, mainly near the South Coast, for a time in the afternoon. Dry weather will have returned to any areas that saw rain by early at night. Looking great for fireworks displays! High pressure slides to the east of the region Sunday through Tuesday with mainly dry and fairly warm weather. By Wednesday, an approaching cold front may trigger showers and thunderstorms.
TODAY – INDEPENDENCE DAY: Mostly cloudy. A little light rain south of the Mass Pike for a time in the afternoon, mainly near the South Coast. Highs 70-75 coast, 75-80 interior. Wind light SE.
TONIGHT: Gradual clearing. Lows 60-65. Wind light S.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 75-80 coast, 80s interior. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows in the 60s. Wind light SW.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs in the 80s, some 70s southern coastal areas.
TUESDAY: Partly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs upper 70s to middle 80s.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of showers and thunderstorms. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 80s, some upper 70s south coastal areas.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 9-13)…
Temperatures are expected to average slightly above normal with rainfall slightly below normal during the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 14-18)…
Little change expected with a near to above normal temperature pattern against a near to below normal precipitation regime.

7:21AM

DAYS 1-5…
Here we are, right into the Holiday Weekend and the weather will be great today and Sunday, and not too bad Saturday. The thing with the holiday itself is that a wave of low pressure passing to the south of New England will toss a good deal of mid and high level moisture this way, so we’ll see a lot of cloudiness. Despite some of the computer models predicting a slug of rain Saturday afternoon and evening, there are 2 things to keep in mind: 1) The models’ timing is usually too slow, so the peak of this “moisture event” will be earlier. 2) There will be a tremendous amount of dry air in place at mid levels when this system makes its run at us, and a lot of that moisture will be “eaten up” or evaporate due to the dry air. This means that clouds may dominate but rain will not. I will introduce the risk of brief light rain to southern areas, but I do not expect this to be enough to cause significant problems. The feel of Summer will be in force by early in the week as the humidity starts to creep up.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 75-80 coast, 80-85 interior. Wind light variable with sea breezes.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 55-60 interior valleys, 60-65 elsewhere. Wind light variable.
SATURDAY – INDEPENDENCE DAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of very light rain early through mid afternoon mainly southern MA, CT, and RI. Highs 70-75 coast, 75-80 interior. Wind light SE.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Clearing. Lows in the 60s. Wind light S.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 75-80 South Coast, 80s elsewhere. Wind light SW.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 80s, cooler South Coast.
TUESDAY: Partly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 80s, cooler South Coast.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 8-12)…
A very warm and humid day possible July 8 including a risk of showers and thunderstorms. Fair weather dominates the rest of the period with seasonable to warmer than normal temperatures.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 13-17)…
Temperatures near to slightly above normal. Rainfall below normal.

9:04AM

COMMENTARY…
And now we enter another long dry stretch with no significant rainfall in sight. The next 5 days will be dry with the possible exception of a touch of light rain from a passing disturbance early on July 4 around Cape Cod, if it even comes close enough, which right now I don’t believe it will. Beyond that as the center of high pressure shifts more offshore with time and starts to introduce some Summertime humidity to the Northeast, we’ll always start to run risk of at least pop up showers and thunderstorms, but these do not erase droughts, and despite a wetter than average June, we still run a long-term precipitation deficit through the region. The Drought Monitor report that comes out today will indeed show at the very least that much of the region is in Abnormally Dry long term conditions. We may see a reduction in the Moderate Drought coverage, but that will likely return again before too long.

DAYS 1-5…
Disturbances pass out south of New England only introducing some high cloudiness at times later today and tonight, and again Friday night into Saturday (rain may get close to the South Coast and Cape Cod Saturday morning but don’t think it will make it onshore). Otherwise high pressure is in control and get ready for a very enjoyable stretch of early Summer weather, including the holiday weekend! We may still see smoke high in the sky for a couple days from forest fires in western Canada.
TODAY: Sunshine filtered at times by high clouds and possibly smoke aloft, most clouds southern MA and RI in the afternoon. Highs 70s South Coast/Cape Cod, 80-85 elsewhere. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 60-65. Wind light W.
FRIDAY: Clouds exit southeastern areas early with sun dominating but sun may still be filtered at times by smoke aloft. Highs 70s coast, 80-85 interior. Wind light variable with light sea breezes.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows in the 60s.
SATURDAY – INDEPENDENCE DAY: Sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 70s South Coast, 80-85 elsewhere.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Evening temps in 70s. Overnight lows in 60s.
SUNDAY: Sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 70s South Coast, 80-85 elsewhere.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows in the 60s.
MONDAY: Partly cloudy. Highs in the 80s, cooler South Coast.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 7-11)…
Weak jet stream overhead between low pressure in east central Canada and high pressure off the East Coast. We probably won’t make it through the entire stretch rain-free but showers and thunderstorms are likely to be somewhat limited, leading to overall below normal rainfall. Temperatures near normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 12-16)…
Jet stream lifts a little to the north and the pattern shifts to one of near to above normal temperatures with continued near to below normal rainfall.
