6:55AM

DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 16-20)
High pressure will control the weather today and Thursday with fair weather and lowering humidity. In fact it will be quite dry Thursday. A warm front approaches Friday with an increasing chance of showers. A cold front crosses the region during the first half of Saturday with the shower threat decreasing slowly as the day goes on. High pressure will regain control with great summer weather again by Sunday.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 78-83 Cape Cod, 83-88 elsewhere. Wind NW 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Patchy fog inland low lying areas. Lows 52-57 interior low spots, 58-65 elsewhere with mildest in urban centers. Wind light N.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 75-80 immediate coast, 80-85 interior. Wind light variable with sea breezes.
FRIDAY: Clouding over. Chance of showers, especially afternoon and night. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 70s.
SATURDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of showers/thunderstorms especially morning and midday. Humid. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the middle 70s to lower 80s.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 21-25)
Pattern of below normal precipitation and above normal temperatures as high pressure dominates.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 26-30)
Warm pattern but increasing opportunities for showers/thunderstorms. Also will continue to watch the tropics.

7:18AM

DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 15-19)
Hurricane Gert passes far southeast of England today through early Wednesday while a disturbance moves across the Northeast providing lots of clouds and a few areas of rain. This is a cloudier, somewhat wetter forecast for parts of the region than previously being carried, but it’s temporary as high pressure moves back in with great weather Wednesday. However, larger ocean swells from Gert will reach the coastal areas Wednesday increasing the risk of rip currents along the beaches. High pressure will maintain control Thursday before the next weather system brings unsettled weather Friday into Saturday.
TODAY: Mostly cloudy. Showers possible anywhere but favoring north central MA, southern NH, and southeastern MA during the morning, then confined more to the South Coast this afternoon but a few more showers/thunderstorms may pop up in north central MA and southern NH late. Highs 75-82. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.
TONIGHT: Decreasing clouds. Lows 62-67. Wind light W.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 78-83 Cape Cod, 83-88 elsewhere. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 80s.
FRIDAY: Mostly cloudy. Showers likely. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 70s.
SATURDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of showers/thunderstorms. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the middle 70s to middle 80s, warmest interior.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 20-24)
Typical August pattern of moderate to high humidity and a few opportunities for showers/thunderstorms at times.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 24-29)
More of the same pattern but may need to keep an eye on the track of a tropical system.

3:32PM

DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 14-18)
High pressure hangs on at the surface but increased moisture aloft leads to cloudiness being more dominant through Monday night, and some into Tuesday as well as moisture increases as the surface as a trough moves in from the west and a tropical system passes well to the south. A few showers/storms may result, favoring southern areas. These would not be directly related to the tropical system, however. High pressure moves in with dry/warm weather Wednesday, then a warm front approaches late Thursday into Friday with more unsettled weather.
REMAINDER OF AFTERNOON: Mostly cloudy. Temperatures 68-75 Cape Cod & Islands, 76-84 elsewhere, warmest inland. Wind light variable with sea breezes.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Lows 62-67. Wind light S.
TUESDAY: Partly sunny. Isolated showers/thunderstorms, favoring southern MA, CT, RI during the late afternoon and evening. More humid. Highs 75-80 coast, 80-85 interior. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 62-67. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Less humid. Highs 83-88. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY: Partly sunny. Chance of showers at night. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the middle 70s to lower 80s.
FRIDAY: Mostly cloudy. Showers likely. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 70s.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 19-23)
Additional showers possible into August 19 as a cold front clears the region. Fair weather August 20-21. More humid with a few showers/thunderstorms possible later in the period.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 24-28)
High pressure more dominant. Temperatures above normal, less rainfall than normal for the period.

12:39PM

DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 13-17)
Straightforward August pattern. High pressure dominates today then sinks to the south early to midweek with warmer weather, as a generally west to east jet stream dominates, though not overly strong. A boundary and some increased humidity may trigger some showers and possible thunderstorms Monday evening along the South Coast, and even a few more isolated showers may occur in that area during Tuesday, otherwise look for a generally rain-free pattern through midweek. A tropical system passing out to sea to the southeast may generate some larger ocean swells to impact coastal areas during midweek. A weak cold front will pass through early Thursday from the north but likely without anything but a wind shift and slight cooling.
THIS AFTERNOON: Sun and passing clouds. Highs 78-85. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy early, then mostly clear. Lows 62-67. Wind light W.
MONDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 77-82 coast, 83-88 interior. Wind variable up to 10 MPH with sea breezes.
TUESDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 80s.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the middle to upper 60s. Highs from the lower 80s to lower 90s, warmest interior areas.
THURSDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 18-22)
A progressive trough in a fairly fast west-to-east flow should bring a warm front across the region by August 18 and a cold front by early August 19 resulting in a period of unsettled weather. After this look for a return to mainly dry, moderate humid weather with a risk of a few showers/storms otherwise mainly rain-free conditions.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 23-27)
High pressure should be in control for most of this period with drier weather and temperatures near to above normal. Some computer guidance has suggested another possible tropical system off the coast at some point so will continue to monitor this possibility.

1:08PM

DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 12-16)
A warm front passed by the region this morning with most of the rain and showers well ahead of it. The air is not that unstable in the warm sector so not really expecting any showers or storms during the day today. A cold front will set off showers/storms in western New England late today and this evening but they will weaken as they head eastward through the region overnight and some areas may see nothing at all. High pressure regains control of the weather Sunday and keeps control for the remainder of this period right into midweek. You will likely notice an increase in warmth and some humidity by Tuesday and Wednesday. During this time a possible tropical system may be in the western Atlantic and stir up ocean swells which may reach the beaches by Wednesday.
THIS AFTERNOON: Sun/cloud mix. Highs 72-77 except 77-82 far inland. Wind light SE to S.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers and a slight risk of thunderstorms after 10PM from west to east. Lows 62-67. Wind light SE to S.
SUNDAY: Partly cloudy to mostly sunny. Highs 78-85. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.
TUESDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 80s.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the middle to upper 60s. Highs from the lower 80s to lower 90s, warmest interior areas.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 17-21)
High pressure to the south should give way to a new high from the north with continued fair but slightly cooler weather August 17. A progressive trough in a fairly fast west-to-east flow should bring a warm front across the region by August 18 and a cold front by early August 19 resulting in a period of unsettled weather. This timing is a little faster than what was suggested yesterday. Behind this would be fairly typical moderately humid August weather with a risk of a few showers/storms otherwise mainly rain-free conditions.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 22-26)
High pressure should be in control for most of this period with drier weather and temperatures near to above normal. Some medium range guidance has suggested another possible tropical system off the coast at some point so just something to monitor going forward.

4:23PM

DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 11-15)
Generally weak weather systems, typical for August, will dominate, with a passing trough bringing some unsettled weather for Saturday before weak high pressure dominates with several days of dry weather.
REMAINDER OF AFTERNOON: Filtered sun fades late. Temperatures 75-85, coolest coast. Wind light S to SE with coastal seabreezes.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Showers arriving around or after midnight. Lows 62-67. Wind light S.
SATURDAY: Mostly cloudy with episodes of showers in the morning, heaviest more likely southeastern MA and RI. Partly sunny with isolated showers and a slight risk of thunderstorms afternoon. Highs 72-77. Wind light SE.

MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 16-20)
Weak high pressure should continue the dry weather August 16-18. A weak trough may result in a few showers/thunderstorms over the weekend of August 19-20. Temperatures near to slightly above normal.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 21-25)
High pressure regains control for most of this period with drier weather and temperatures near to above normal.

3:26PM

DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 10-14)
Pattern of weak trough to the west and high pressure offshore continues but the trough presses more to the east at times in the coming days with some unsettled weather at times. The weekend may start wet but don’t look for anything close to a wash-out.
REMAINDER OF TODAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated showers mainly southern NH and northern MA. Moderately humid. Highs 78-88, coolest right at the beach. Wind variable with sea breezes, diminishing late.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 15-19)
Pattern reorganizes into trough Great Lakes and ridge off East Coast with only a few episodes of isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms and otherwise mainly fair weather and typical mid August temperatures.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 16-20)
High pressure establishes more control with a warmer than normal and drier pattern.

7:28AM

DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 9-13)
High pressure dominates today and Thursday then slips offshore Friday. A weak trough gets closer from the west by the weekend.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 77-84. Wind light variable with sea breezes.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 14-18)
Same general pattern, weak high pressure to the east, weak trough in the Great Lakes sending occasional disturbances into the Northeast. A few showers/thunderstorms at times favoring August early and again late period. Temperatures overall will be near the seasonal average.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 19-23)
A slight retrogression of the high pressure area offshore should allow it to warm slightly with a continued risk for a few showers/storms at times.

7:25AM

DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 8-12)
Low pressure departs to the east today but clouds will linger and some colder air aloft will trigger a few showers. High pressure dominates midweek with fair, dry, warmer weather. Moisture increases toward the end of the week with a slight increase in the risk of showers again.
TODAY: Mostly cloudy. Isolated to scattered showers and a slight chance of thunderstorms. Highs 73-80. Wind N to NW 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 58-64. Wind light variable.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 18-22)
A slight retrogression of the high pressure area offshore should allow it to warm slightly with a continued risk for a few showers/storms at times.

3:58AM

DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 7-11)
Wave of low pressure moves east northeast and passes over far southern New England tonight through early Tuesday, bringing some wet weather, favoring southeastern areas. High pressure moves in mid to late week with fair weather.
TODAY: Clouding over. Areas of rain arrive during the afternoon. Highs 72-78. Wind S to SE 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Overcast. Rain likely mainly South Coast where it may be heavy at times. Slight risk of thunder, favoring heaviest rain areas far south. Scattered lighter rain elsewhere. Areas of fog. Lows 62-68. Wind E 10-20 MPH with higher gusts from southern NH to northern MA, variable to SW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts southern MA, CT, and RI.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 17-21)
A slight retrogression of the high pressure area offshore should allow it to warm slightly to near to above normal, temperature-wise. Same generally pattern with a few opportunities for showers and thunderstorms.

11:38AM

DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 6-10)
I’ve had my difficulty figuring out what is a simple pattern lately. Still the same overall idea but a few adjustments. The overall pattern is for high pressure off the Atlantic Coast but on the weaker side, allowing the mean trough in the Great Lakes to eject disturbances that cross the Northeast, the next of which will be further south than the one before it, putting southern New England on the cool side and lining up the region for significant rain later Monday to early Tuesday. A stronger ridge of high pressure continues to dominate the western USA and the jet stream is north of this and sending pieces of Pacific energy and moisture along toward the Great Lakes trough. Some may think this pattern is more like winter, but it’s not. It’s a summer pattern we have seen many times, and a whole lot wetter a pattern than last year at this time, as the lush vegetation will remind you. However, you may have noticed some early leaf drop, particularly in maples. This is post-drought stress, a normal reaction, and the trees will recover from it. Now, onto the updated forecast…
TODAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 76-83. Wind W 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Increasing clouds. Lows 58-65. Wind W shifting to S 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY: Mostly cloudy. Areas of rain arrive during the afternoon. Highs 72-78. Wind S to SE 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY NIGHT: Overcast. Rain likely, heavy at times. Slight risk of thunder. Areas of fog. Lows 62-68. Wind E 10-20 MPH with higher gusts from southern NH to northern MA, variable to SW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts southern MA, CT, and RI.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy with any rain ending in the morning. Partly sunny afternoon. Highs 75-82. Wind N to NW 10-20 MPH, diminishing late.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the upper 50s to middle 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to lower 80s.
THURSDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows from the lower to middle 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 11-15)
Same general pattern, weak high pressure to the east, weak trough in the Great Lakes sending occasional disturbances into the Northeast. Current timing suggests the greatest chance for showers/storms comes later in this period which will otherwise be largely rain-free.
Temperatures overall will be near the seasonal average.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 16-20)
A slight retrogression of the high pressure area offshore should allow it to warm slightly to near to above normal, temperature-wise. Same generally pattern with a few opportunities for showers and thunderstorms.

11:29AM

DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 5-9)
Cold front + humidity = showers and thunderstorms. That’s today, not a total wash-out, but currently a fairly significant batch of showers and embedded thunder moving through from west to east in central and eastern areas. This clears out and allows some sun which will fuel another batch of showers/storms with the cold front itself later. This area should be smaller overall, but may pack more of a punch where it does hit – favoring areas from central and eastern MA to southern NH at this time for late afternoon / early evening. Drier air arrives overnight and Sunday which will be a beautiful summer day. But the overall pattern discussed in previous entries continues and will send another disturbance this way later Monday and Tuesday with more unsettled weather before fair weather returns.
TODAY: Showers and embedded thunder central through eastern areas midday, then some breaking clouds with sun increasing. Then a chance of showers/thunderstorms again west to east later day and early evening. Any storms may be briefly strong. Humid. Highs 78-86, coolest South Coast. Wind SW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy to mostly clear. Lowering humidity later. Lows 62-68. Wind S 5-10 MPH shifting to W 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 76-84. Wind W 10-20 MPH.
MONDAY: Clouding over. PM rain. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 70s.
TUESDAY: Early showers. Clearing west to east. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 70s.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the upper 50s to middle 60s. Highs from the middle 70s to lower 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 10-14)
Pattern will feature more humidity and a daily risk of showers/thunderstorms, but much more often rain-free.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 15-19)
Humid start, showers/storms following, a drier interlude, and humidity returns later in the period.

10:56AM

DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 4-8)
The overall pattern of ridge off Atlantic Coast, mean trough Midwest/Great Lakes will continue though a front will push eastward from the trough through the region Saturday, and increase out isolated shower/storm activity of today to a greater risk of more areas seeing at least a passing shower/storm or two during Saturday. A bubble of high pressure will bring great weather for Sunday and then a wave of low pressure ejecting from the trough will return some unsettled weather to the region later Monday and early Tuesday based on current timing.
TODAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated showers and thunderstorms possible but will favor areas well west and north of Boston. Humid. Highs 78-86, coolest South Coast. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Humid. Lows 65-72. Wind light SW.
SATURDAY: Variably cloudy. Isolated to scattered showers/thunderstorms but one or two broken to solid lines of showers/storms may cross the region from west to east between noon and early evening. Humid. Highs 78-86, coolest South Coast. Wind SW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Risk of showers/storms early. Humid. Lows 65-72. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Less humid. Highs 76-84. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY: Increasing clouds. Chance of rain late. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 70s.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy with a chance of rain morning. Clearing afternoon. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 70s.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 9-13)
Same general pattern allows warmth and humidity to become re-established along with occasional opportunities for showers/storms.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 14-18)
Similar pattern expected to continue through mid month. As always we will need to eye the tropics for systems should anything approach the East Coast.

8:22AM

DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 3-7)
No changes from yesterday’s discussion. Warm/humid for the next 3 days, isolated showers/storms today-Friday, better chance Saturday as a front arrives from the west. High pressure brings great weather Sunday, low pressure approaches and brings unsettled weather by later Monday.
TODAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated afternoon showers/thunderstorms. Humid. Highs 78-83 South Coast, 83-88 elsewhere. Wind S 5-15 MPH but some east coastal sea breezes.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Patchy fog. Humid. Lows 65-72. Wind light S.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated afternoon showers/thunderstorms. Humid. Highs 78-83 South Coast, 83-88 elsewhere. Wind S 5-15 MPH but some east coastal sea breezes.
SATURDAY: Partly sunny. Scattered showers/thunderstorms. Humid. Lows from the middle 60s to lower 70s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s, coolest South Coast.
SUNDAY: Partly cloudy. Less humid. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the middle 70s to middle 80s.
MONDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers or rain late. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 70s.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 8-12)
Cooler and unsettled briefly August 8 as a trough swings through, then the larger scale pattern tries to take back over with more humidity and warmer weather.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 13-17)
Overall similar pattern, typical for August, but still may have to contend with some passing troughs from the west at times as the old pattern tries to come back at times.

12:41PM

DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 2-6)
The next 4 days we will be in a warm/humid southerly air flow with high pressure offshore and a trough to the west. The risk of showers and thunderstorms is a little higher today as a disturbance moves through, and again Saturday as a front approaches from the west. The two days in between will see more isolated activity. Sea breeze boundaries each day can also be a focus for some developing showers and storms. Overall, this will be largely a rain-free several days, but when it does rain in any given location, some very heavy downpours may occur.
THIS AFTERNOON: Variably cloudy. Scattered showers/thunderstorms, some with downpours and possible small hail. Humid. Highs 78-83 South Coast, 83-88 elsewhere. Wind S 5-15 MPH with some east coastal sea breezes.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Isolated showers/thunderstorms early. Patchy fog. Humid. Lows 65-72. Wind light S.
THURSDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated afternoon showers/thunderstorms. Humid. Highs 78-83 South Coast, 83-88 elsewhere. Wind S 5-15 MPH but some east coastal sea breezes.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Patchy fog. Humid. Lows 65-72. Wind light S.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated afternoon showers/thunderstorms. Humid. Highs 78-83 South Coast, 83-88 elsewhere. Wind S 5-15 MPH but some east coastal sea breezes.
SATURDAY: Partly sunny. Scattered showers/thunderstorms. Humid. Lows from the middle 60s to lower 70s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s, coolest South Coast.
SUNDAY: Partly cloudy. Less humid. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the middle 70s to middle 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 7-11)
Cooler and unsettled briefly August 7-8 as a trough swings through, then the larger scale pattern tries to take back over with more humidity and warmer weather.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 12-16)
Overall similar pattern, typical for August, but still may have to contend with some passing troughs from the west at times as the old pattern tries to come back at times.
