7:25AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 19-23)
A disturbance, the second in a series of 3, will pass south of the region today and may bring some showers to the South Coast. The rest of the region will escape those showers, although a diurnally-driven pop-up shower may still occur in central MA and southern NH this afternoon. The marine layer has resulted in a lot of low cloudiness which will eventually burn off in some areas but may have difficulty as the sun is compromised and much weaker due to higher cloudiness above. The third and final wave of low pressure in the series will be the strongest and also cut a pathway further north, bringing the boundary it’s riding along right into southern New England late Thursday and Thursday night. This will result in more widespread rainfall which also includes the risk of thunderstorms, though no severe weather will occur. We will have to watch for the possibility of road flooding due to some heavier rainfall in some locations. But this wave will be moving right along and drier air will begin to move in after a damp start to Friday, leaving the end of that day much different than it started, the contrast going from rather tranquil but overcast, damp, and rain or drizzle lingering as the day dawns, to a gusty wind, sunshine, and dry air as the day ends. What about the weekend? Looking great! Still may hold onto a gusty breeze Saturday as we will still be between high pressure approaching from the west and low pressure to the northeast of the region, and that will keep the air dry and the air temperature below 80. By Sunday, high pressure is right on us, and 80+ may occur away from where coastal sea breezes develops.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers favoring the South Coast. Isolated pop-up showers afternoon southwestern NH and central MA. Highs 73-80, coolest coast. Wind light variable.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Lows 57-64. Wind light variable.
THURSDAY: Cloudy. Showers likely, some possibly heavy. Risk of thunderstorms. Highs 70-77. Wind SE 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Cloudy. Showers likely, some possibly heavy. Risk of thunderstorms. Lows 60-67. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Cloudy with lingering showers/drizzle/fog early, then clearing. Highs 71-78. Wind variable to NW increasing to 10-20 MPH with higher gusts by late-day.

SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 72-79. Wind NW 10-20 MPH, diminishing late.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 53-60. Wind light variable.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 76-83, coolest coast. Wind light variable with sea breezes.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 24-28)
Warmer and more humid June 24-25 with a shower or thunderstorm threat both days. Less humid thereafter with a brief shower threat later June 26 or early June 27. Most of this 5-day period will be rain-free.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 29-JULY 3)
West to east flow over a high pressure ridge to the south and west of New England is a pattern that brings seasonable to warm weather, is rain-free most of the time, but also provides a few opportunities moving along the jet stream to bring a shower/t-storm threat. This is the pattern currently expected for this period.

7:18AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 18-22)
A 4-day stretch of unsettled weather with waves of low pressure passing along a frontal boundary to the south of New England today and again Wednesday, the first bringing a shot of wet weather to the region later this morning into this afternoon, lingering longest to the south, the second confining itself mostly to the South Coast Wednesday while both late today and late Tuesday some showers may pop up along a convergence zone between ocean air and non-ocean air somewhere north and west of Boston. The third in the series of low pressure areas will not only be the strongest but also take a track just north of southern New England, bringing the most moisture, the heaviest rainfall threat, and a chance of thunderstorms, most of it occurring Thursday night, with wet weather lingering into Friday as the low pulls away. Drier air will be returning by later Friday and will set the region up for a nice start to the upcoming weekend as high pressure approaches, but a gusty breeze that develops during Friday between the departing low and approaching high may continue into Saturday.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Cloudy. Showers likely mainly late morning through early afternoon, most numerous southern MA, CT, RI, and may linger there longer. Pop-up showers possible southern NH and central MA mid to late afternoon. Highs 68-75. Wind light variable to SE.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Isolated showers early. Lows 58-65. Wind light SE.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Scattered showers favoring the South Coast. Isolated pop-up showers afternoon southwestern NH and central MA. Highs 73-80, coolest coast. Wind light variable.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 57-64. Wind light variable.
THURSDAY: Becoming cloudy. Showers likely by late-day. Highs 70-77. Wind SE 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Cloudy. Showers likely. Risk of thunderstorms. Lows 60-67. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Cloudy with lingering showers/drizzle/fog early, then clearing. Highs 71-78. Wind variable to NW increasing to 10-20 MPH with higher gusts by late-day.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Clear. Lows 54-61. Wind NW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 73-80. Wind NW 10-20 MPH, diminishing late.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 23-27)
Great weather hangs on to finish off the weekend on June 23. A low pressure wave brings a threat of wet weather June 24. The June 25-27 period should be mostly fair, but not without a shower or thunderstorm threat a couple times, and overall warmer.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 28-JULY 2)
West to east flow over a high pressure ridge to the south and west of New England is a pattern that brings warm to occasional hot weather in, is rain-free most of the time, but also provides a few opportunities moving along the jet stream to bring a shower/t-storm threat. This is the pattern currently expected for this period.

7:19AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 17-21)
This 5-day forecast brings us to the summer solstice which occurs at 11:54AM EDT on Friday June 21. There may be a little irony there because after a decent day today, the weather pattern this week may not have you thinking of summer that much until just about the moment it begins, if timing is just right. After high pressure gives us nice weather today, a frontal boundary sitting just south of or over southern New England will be the focus for disturbances and episodic showers Tuesday into early Friday, focused on daytime Tuesday and late Thursday to very early Friday, which may get out of here just in time for the official start of summer, allowing Friday to end nice…
Forecast details…
TODAY: Sun and passing clouds. Highs 75-82. Wind N up to 10 MPH.
TONIGHT: Clouds return. Lows 55-62. Wind light variable.
TUESDAY: Cloudy. Showers likely. Highs 68-75. Wind light variable to SE.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers. Lows 58-65. Wind light SE.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Isolated showers. Highs 73-80, coolest coast. Wind light variable.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 57-64. Wind light variable.
THURSDAY: Becoming cloudy. Showers likely by late-day. Highs 70-77. Wind SE 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Cloudy. Showers likely. Risk of a thunderstorm. Lows 60-67. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Cloudy with lingering showers/drizzle/fog early, then clearing. Highs 71-78. Wind variable to NW 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 22-26)
High pressure should provide nice weather for the June 22-23 weekend before a low pressure wave brings wet weather June 24, followed by a return to fair weather and a more summer feel later in the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 27-JULY 1)
West to east flow over a high pressure ridge to the south and west of New England is a pattern that brings warm to occasional hot weather in, is rain-free most of the time, but also provides a few opportunities moving along the jet stream to bring a shower/t-storm threat. This is the pattern currently expected for this period.

7:31AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 16-20)
First off, if you are a father, then I wish you a Happy Father’s Day! For you and all the others it may be easy to look at your weather app forecast today and think we have a week of rain upcoming, and while we will be in an unsettled pattern during this 5-day period, we will not be getting “5 days of rain” either. A front that settles into the region today will waver around for the next several days, being a helper for showers to form and other areas of wet weather to move across from west to east, as disturbances pass by. We already have the majority of the shower activity to the south as I write this, and while some areas are wet many are dry. This will continue to be the case, and at times the shower threat will expand, while other times it drops off. Most of Monday now looks dry and may even feature more sunshine than I previously expected. It is difficult to time the wet weather episodes as we go through the next several days, so just be ready for it. Right now best guesses place better chances for most widespread shower activity early Tuesday, early Wednesday, and later Thursday.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers. More humid. Highs 70-77, cooler coastal areas. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers. Patchy fog. Humid. Lows 60-67. Wind light variable.
MONDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 73-80. Wind light variable.
MONDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Numerous showers and a slight risk of thunderstorms, mainly late. Humid. Lows 60-67. Wind light variable.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers/thunderstorms, favoring morning hours. Humid. Highs 73-80. Wind light variable.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Slight risk of showers. Humid. Lows 60-67. Wind light variable.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Showers likely in the morning. Slight chance of showers thereafter. Highs 73-80. Wind light variable.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 56-63. Wind light variable.
THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy. Showers likely especially late day or nighttime. Highs 70-77. Wind light variable.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 21-25)
Wet start, dry finish June 21 as summer officially arrives to below normal temperatures. A seasonably warm and dry weekend follows June 22-23 as high pressure looks like it will be timed just right. Wet weather threat returns June 24 but departs the next day, based on rough timing of systems this far in advance.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 26-30)
The trend for late June is west to east flow but more high pressure ridging to the south of New England. This pattern is warm, rain-free most of the time but still carries risk of passing shower/storms at times from jet stream disturbances.

7:57AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 15-19)
This weekend is definitely not going to live up to the top billing last weekend had, at least according to popular opinion, but don’t call it a lost weather weekend either, as a good many hours of it will be rain-free, including all of today. We will have to deal with some cloudiness however as a warm front passes through today. A cold front sagging into the region during Sunday will have more moisture with it, so in addition to its cloudiness will also some a shower threat, but there will be some rain-free time to sneak in some outdoor stuff. An unsettled pattern will then be with us for a few days following as the frontal boundary hangs around and a couple disturbances move along it. Right now the greatest risk for wet weather looks like it will be later Monday, early Tuesday, and a portion of Wednesday too early to determine exactly at this point.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Partly sunny. Highs 74-81. Wind WSW 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Variably cloudy. Lows 57-64. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers. More humid. Highs 73-80, cooler coastal areas. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers. Patchy fog. Humid. Lows 60-67. Wind light variable.
MONDAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers morning. Numerous showers and a slight risk of thunderstorms later in the day. Humid. Highs 72-79. Wind light variable.
MONDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Numerous showers and a slight risk of thunderstorms. Humid. Lows 60-67. Wind light variable.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers/thunderstorms, favoring morning and midday. Humid. Highs 73-80. Wind light variable.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Slight risk of showers. Humid. Lows 60-67. Wind light variable.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Scattered showers. Risk of thunderstorms. Highs 73-80. Wind light variable.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 20-24)
Another round of showery weather possible later June 20 and another at the end of the period. In between high pressure should bring mostly dry weather. Temperatures near to slightly above normal overall, warmest middle of period.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 25-29)
The trend for late June is west to east flow but more high pressure ridging to the south of New England. This pattern is warm, rain-free most of the time but still carries risk of passing shower/storms at times from jet stream disturbances.

7:04AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 14-18)
Upper level low pressure moves across the region today, and while we’ll have a drying westerly wind, the sun’s heating of the ground, which has residual moisture left from yesterday’s rainfall, will trigger clouds to form, and with the help of a passing impulse of energy, perhaps some passing showers any time from the middle of the day to late afternoon. Dry, more stable air overtakes the region tonight and Saturday as high pressure moves in. But a cold front will approach, enter, then slow down in the region Sunday, then hang around into early next week, when we will begin several days of more humid weather with opportunities for showers and thunderstorms.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Partly sunny. Slight risk of a passing shower. Highs 67-74. Wind W 10-20 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 48-53 interior valleys, 53-58 elsewhere. Wind light NW.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 75-82. Wind WSW 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 57-64. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy. Scattered showers. Isolated thunderstorms. More humid. Highs 76-83, cooler coastal areas. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers/thunderstorms. Patchy fog. Humid. Lows 60-67. Wind light variable.
MONDAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers/thunderstorms. Humid. Highs 72-79. Wind light variable.
MONDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers/thunderstorms. Humid. Lows 60-67. Wind light variable.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers/thunderstorms. Humid. Highs 73-80. Wind light variable.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 19-23)
Shower/thunderstorm threat lingers but decreases early in the period with a dissipating frontal boundary nearby, and high pressure gradually takes over for a drying trend. Temperatures near to slightly above normal overall.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 24-28)
Look for a mainly west to east (zonal) flow with a couple opportunities for showers/thunderstorms, but fair weather the majority of the time, and a tendency for the jet stream to lift north in response to building heat over the interior Southeast and Midwest, putting temperatures to mostly above normal, but not excessively hot.

6:47AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 13-17)
Low pressure approaches then moves across the region today with a decent bout of wet weather. The negative is that it will have travel impact including resulting in some area of road flooding. The positive is that it will again knock the pollen count down and help maintain decent top soil moisture for vegetation and development of recently planted local crops. By Friday, the low is gone, and a drying westerly wind takes over, although I still cannot rule out a passing shower that may pop up due to a combination of solar heating and cold air aloft. The weekend starts great with high pressure in control, but a front in the vicinity Sunday, with southern New England on the warmer side of it, means increased humidity and a threat of showers and thunderstorms. The front will remain nearby Monday but we may end up on the other side of it, still unsettled but somewhat cooler, although that remains to be seen.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Overcast. Periods of rain, possibly heavy, with a risk of a thunderstorm. Areas of fog. Highs 62-69, may cool back to upper 50s coast. Wind SE 10-20 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Patchy fog. Lingering showers and possibly a thunderstorm evening. Lows 55-62. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Partly sunny. Slight risk of a passing shower. Highs 67-74. Wind W 10-20 MPH.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 48-53 interior valleys, 53-58 elsewhere. Wind light NW.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 75-82. Wind WSW 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 57-64. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy. Scattered showers. Isolated thunderstorms. More humid. Highs 76-83, cooler coastal areas. Wind SW to variable 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers. Patchy fog. Humid. Lows 60-67. Wind light variable.
MONDAY: Mostly cloudy. Showers likely. Highs 68-75. Wind variable to NE 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 18-22)
Shower/thunderstorm threat lingers with a front in the vicinity June 18 then look for a drying trend thereafter as a little more high pressure takes over. Temperatures near to slightly above normal overall.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 23-27)
Look for a mainly west to east (zonal) flow with a couple opportunities for showers/thunderstorms, but fair weather the majority of the time, and a tendency for the jet stream to lift north in response to building heat over the interior Southeast and Midwest, putting temperatures in southern New England to the warmer side of normal.

7:29AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 12-16)
Quick changing weather day-to-day remains the theme of this pattern and this will be going on for some time with high pressure bringing nice weather today, passing low pressure bringing a good slug of rain Thursday, a drying westerly breeze trying to bring fair weather back Friday while passing upper level low pressure tries to ignite a few showers, then a weekend which favors fair weather Saturday and a shower/t-storm threat Sunday.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 73-80. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Clouding over. Lows 55-62. Wind light S.
THURSDAY: Overcast. Periods of rain, possibly heavy, with a risk of a thunderstorm. Areas of fog. Highs 62-69, may cool back to upper 50s coast. Wind SE 10-20 MPH.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Patchy fog. Lingering showers and possibly a thunderstorm evening. Lows 55-62. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Partly sunny. Slight risk of a passing shower. Highs 67-74. Wind W 10-20 MPH.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 48-53 interior valleys, 53-58 elsewhere. Wind light NW.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 75-82. Wind WSW 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 57-64. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy. Scattered showers. Isolated thunderstorms. More humid. Highs 76-83, cooler coastal areas. Wind SW to variable 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 17-21)
Shower/thunderstorm threat lingers with a front in the vicinity June 17 and possibly into June 18, with the next threat from a passing disturbance about June 20. Much of the time will be rain-free. A broad zonal (west to east) flow doesn’t allow it to get too cool but also prevents heat.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 22-26)
Zonal (west to east) pattern, but with a tendency for more ridging to start becoming established from the lower Mississippi Valley to Tennessee Valley will start to push the jet stream a little further north and allow a little better chance for very warm to hot weather mid to late period.

7:20AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 11-15)
We’re in the midst of our warm front / cold front combo as I write this shortly before posting it. That means it’s muggy, mild, and showery, and this will go on for a good portion of the morning before the cold front sweeps it all east and offshore this afternoon, resulting in a vastly different looking and feeling ending to the day. That incoming dry air will be courtesy high pressure which will settle across New England for a one-day visit Wednesday – the pick of the work week. But as previously mentioned, another low pressure area will be on its heels and will bring a slug of wet weather back into southern New England during Thursday, a cooler day with a stronger easterly wind ahead of the low. As a lingering trough swings through, there is the opportunity for a passing shower Friday but otherwise we’ll see another drying-out process with a westerly air flow taking over, and this will set up nice weather to start the weekend.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Mainly cloudy with numerous showers and scattered thunderstorms early to mid morning tapering to scattered showers late morning. Becoming mostly sunny afternoon. Highs 76-81 except 68-75 immediate South Coast. Wind S shifting to W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Clear. Lows 50-57. Wind W 5-15 MPH, a few higher gusts evening.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 73-80. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Clouding over. Lows 55-62. Wind light S.
THURSDAY: Overcast. Periods of rain. Areas of fog. Highs 62-69, may cool back to upper 50s coast. Wind E 10-20 MPH.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Cloudy. Rain tapering off to areas of drizzle and lingering showers. Patchy fog. Lows 55-62. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Partly sunny. Slight risk of a passing shower. Highs 67-74. Wind W 10-20 MPH.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 48-53 interior valleys, 53-58 elsewhere. Wind light NW.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 75-82. Wind W 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 16-20)
Going to lean toward the faster timing of a frontal boundary impacting the region with a little more cloudiness along with a shower and possible thunderstorm threat so this will be the case for the June 16-17 period with a drying trend then for June 18-19, before the next disturbance brings a shower threat to end the period. Temperatures will vary but will average near to slightly above normal with no major heat in sight at this time.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 21-25)
Zonal (west to east) pattern, but with a tendency for more ridging to start becoming established from the lower Mississippi Valley to Tennessee Valley will start to push the jet stream a little further north and allow the first opportunity or two for a “hot” day before this period is over.

7:09AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 10-14)
As the new week begins, we keep some of the great weather we enjoyed over the weekend with sunshine to start, but we’ll lose the sun to advancing clouds during the day. If there was one down side to the dry weekend, it was the prolific pine pollen dusting everything greenish yellow, and the smaller unseen pollen grains giving people allergy fits. But that is just something we have to deal with around here every year at this time, and is a price to pay for getting to the nice weather so many wanted. So, as a former bad allergy sufferer, I sympathize. If there is some good news about unsettled weather, it will be that it will help reduce the pollen count, and that wet weather is on the way for later tonight into early Tuesday, as a warm front and then a cold front cross the region in rapid succession, parented by low pressure passing north of the region. By Tuesday afternoon, we’ll already be dry with a westerly wind and clearing. High pressure builds in for a wonderful Wednesday, the pick of the work week if you can somehow make it a non-work day or happen to have it off. Another passing low pressure area this time with an onshore wind ahead of a center that will cut across southern New England, will bring wet and cooler weather Thursday. But don’t look out the window that day and think we’re right back into or still in the same pattern we were before. In fact, these 2 bouts of rain this week are needed as it has turned a little dry recently, and regular rains are still needed. It does not take long for the top layers of the ground to dry out. But since nobody is really going to want to see days on end of clouds and wet weather, they will be happy when the sun returns Friday, albeit with passing clouds and a gusty breeze, as dry air returns behind the low pressure area.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Sunshine followed by increasing clouds. Highs 73-80, cooling back to upper 60s some coastal areas. Wind light variable to SE.
TONIGHT: Cloudy. Periods of rain mid to late evening. Showers overnight. Patchy fog forming. Lows 58-65. Wind SE to S 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY: Mainly cloudy with numerous showers and scattered thunderstorms early to mid morning tapering to scattered showers late morning. Becoming mostly sunny afternoon. Highs 76-81 except 68-75 immediate South Coast. Wind S shifting to W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Clear. Lows 50-57. Wind W 5-15 MPH, a few higher gusts evening.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 73-80. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Clouding over. Lows 55-62. Wind light S.
THURSDAY: Overcast. Periods of rain. Areas of fog. Highs 62-69, may cool back to upper 50s coast. Wind E 10-20 MPH.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Cloudy. Rain tapering off to areas of drizzle and lingering showers. Patchy fog. Lows 55-62. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 67-74. Wind W 10-20 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 15-19)
The June 15-16 weekend looks mainly rain-free but we may see a couple disturbances bring a period or two of cloudiness and perhaps the shower/thunderstorm risk may increase by later Sunday if things move along quickly enough, but for now leaning toward a great weekend. Frontal boundary nearby will bring shower/thunderstorm chances at times June 17-18 before high pressure brings fair weather by the end of this period. Temperatures will vary but will average near to slightly above normal with no major heat in sight at this time.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 20-24)
The overall pattern will be zonal (west to east flow) with a couple disturbances bringing us shower and thunderstorm opportunities, which are impossible to pin-point, timing-wise, so many days in advance. Still no sign of major heat in this period though some of our medium range guidance indicates it will be building to our west and southwest.

8:34AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 9-13)
High pressure remains in control today allowing the region to complete the first Saturday/Sunday combination with no rain in the region at all since March 16-17. High pressure gives way to an approaching warm front Monday, which will cross the region at night, followed quickly by a cold front, keeping the bout of unsettled weather confined to a relatively short time, before high pressure and drier weather returns for Wednesday. But things are on the move and the next low pressure area will arrive during Thursday with another threat of wet weather.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 77-84, cooler in some coastal areas especially Cape Cod. Wind variable to W 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 55-62. Wind W up to 10 MPH.
MONDAY: Increasing clouds. Highs 75-82, coolest coast. Wind light variable to SE.
MONDAY NIGHT: Cloudy. Rain arriving. More humid. Lows 58-65. Wind light SE.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Showers and thunderstorms likely, especially morning and midday. Humid. Highs 72-79. Wind S 10-20 MPH.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Clearing. Lows 54-61. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 75-82. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Increasing clouds. Lows 55-62. Wind light variable.
THURSDAY: Cloudy. Chance of rain. Highs 62-69 but may cool back to upper 50s coast. Wind NE 10-20 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 14-18)
Drier weather tries to return on a west wind behind departing low pressure June 14 but some colder air aloft may trigger showers/t-storms.
The June 15-17 period will feature high pressure both north and south of the region with a boundary between. Where this boundary sets up will determine the weather here. Leaning toward the warmer side of it now but along with a couple of shower/t-storm opportunities. Showers/thunderstorms more likely at the end of the period with high pressure from the north pushing the boundary further to the south.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 19-23)
A generally zonal (west to east) jet stream pattern with mean ridge of high pressure centered west of New England. This pattern sends a few chances of showers/thunderstorms this way but also brings fair and seasonably warm weather in between.

9:48AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 8-12)
Other than some high cloudiness across southern areas this weekend, high pressure will be in control with plenty of sun and fairly warm conditions with low humidity, making it about as nice a June weekend as you can have. Of course with the ocean water still chilly at this point in the season, coastal areas will be vulnerable to cooling sea breezes, especially today. Low pressure will pass north of New England early Tuesday, but will drag its warm front / cold front combination through the region Monday night and Tuesday, with unsettled weather. High pressure builds back in for fair weather Wednesday.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly sunny but some filtered sun through high clouds to the south. Highs 75-82, cooler some coastal areas. Wind light variable to NW but coastal sea breezes.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 52-59. Wind light variable.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny, but again sun filtered through high cloudiness especially to the south. Highs 77-84, cooler in some coastal areas especially Cape Cod. Wind variable to W 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 55-62. Wind W up to 10 MPH.
MONDAY: Increasing clouds. Highs 75-82, coolest coast. Wind light variable to SE.
MONDAY NIGHT: Cloudy. Chance of rain. More humid. Lows 58-65. Wind light SE.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Showers and thunderstorms likely, especially morning and midday. Humid. Highs 72-79. Wind S 10-20 MPH.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Clearing. Lows 54-61. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 75-82. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 13-17)
Low pressure brings a chance of rain or showers June 13 with cooler air as well. Westerly flow, drier and warmer weather arrives June 14. The June 15-17 period will feature high pressure both north and south of the region with a boundary between. Where this boundary sets up will determine the weather here. Leaning toward the warmer side of it now but along with a couple of shower/t-storm opportunities.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 18-22)
A generally zonal (west to east) jet stream pattern with mean ridge of high pressure centered west of New England. This pattern sends a few chances of showers/thunderstorms this way but also brings fair and seasonably warm weather in between.

7:16AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 7-11)
A frontal boundary to the south will still help create some cloudiness across the sky at times today, especially to the south, but it will be a nice day overall as high pressure moves in, and this will set up a great weekend, but again with the front not all that far to the south we may see additional high cloudiness at times especially nearer the South Coast. Early next week, the front starts a northward movement Monday as a warm front and clouds overtake the sky again along with a risk of wet weather by late Monday, and then a cold front crosses the region during Tuesday with showers/thunderstorms.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly sunny north, partly sunny south. Highs 71-78. Wind light N.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear north, partly cloudy south. Lows 48-53 interior, coolest valleys, 53-58 elsewhere. Wind light variable.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny but some filtered sun through high clouds to the south. Highs 71-78, but cooling back to upper 60s coast afternoon. Wind light variable to NW but coastal sea breezes.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 50-57. Wind light variable.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny, but again sun filtered through high cloudiness especially to the south. Highs 77-84, cooler in some coastal areas especially Cape Cod. Wind variable to W 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 52-59. Wind W up to 10 MPH.
MONDAY: Increasing clouds. Highs 73-80, coolest coast. Wind light variable to SE.
MONDAY NIGHT: Cloudy. Chance of rain. Lows 58-65. Wind light SE.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Showers and thunderstorms likely. Highs 70-77. Wind S 10-20 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 12-16)
High pressure brings fair weather June 12. Low pressure passing near to or southeast of the region June 13 brings a rain threat. A westerly flow and drier air arrives June 14. A warm front / cold front combo may visit the region later in the period with a risk of some cloudiness and passing showers / t-storms. Temperatures which will be somewhat variable will average out close to normal for the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 17-21)
A generally zonal (west to east) jet stream pattern with mean ridge of high pressure centered west of New England. This pattern sends a few chances of showers/thunderstorms this way but also brings fair and seasonably warm weather in between.

7:04AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 6-10)
The frontal boundary that has been sitting in our area for the last couple days divides cooler air in southern NH and northern MA from warm and humid air to the south, and this boundary will slowly sink to the south today, being the focus for some additional showers and thunderstorms, although these will get less numerous and more isolated as the day goes on and drier air works in from north to south. This boundary will be close enough for some potential cloudiness at times into Friday but high pressure building toward the region from Canada will assure dry weather and this high will bring a fabulous June weekend. By Monday, an approaching warm front returns cloudiness to the region.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered to isolated showers and thunderstorms. Humid, especially southern areas, but slowly drying north to south.
Highs 68-75. Wind variable, shifting from SW to N from north to south, 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 53-60. Wind light N.
FRIDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 71-78. Wind light N.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 48-53 interior, coolest valleys, 53-58 elsewhere. Wind light variable.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 71-78, but cooling back to upper 60s coast afternoon. Wind light variable to NW but coastal sea breezes.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 50-57. Wind light variable.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 77-84, cooler in some coastal areas especially Cape Cod. Wind variable to W 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 52-59. Wind W up to 10 MPH.
MONDAY: Increasing clouds. Highs 73-80, coolest coast. Wind light variable to SE.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 11-15)
Cold front crosses the region June 11 with showers/thunderstorms. High pressure brings fair weather June 12. Low pressure passes southeast of or over the region June 13 with a rain threat. Fair and seasonable weather for the end of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 16-20)
A generally zonal (west to east) jet stream pattern with mean ridge of high pressure centered west of New England. This pattern sends a few chances of showers/thunderstorms this way but also brings fair and seasonably warm weather in between.

7:21AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 5-9)
A frontal boundary will sit across northern MA and southern NH today into Thursday, and may waver around a little playing havoc with the temperatures near it. This front will also be the running board for a few showers and possible thunderstorms during today, which will become more frequent tonight into Thursday, before the front pushes to the south as low pressure moves along it then to our northeast. Thursday night into Friday a push of drier air gets the wet weather out of here and replaces it with fair weather, setting up a great weekend with high pressure in control of the weather.
Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly cloudy. Isolated to scattered showers and a slight risk of thunderstorms, favoring southern NH and northern MA. Highs 60-67 north, 68-75 south. Wind N 5-15 MPH northern areas, SW 5-15 MPH but higher gusts central and southern areas.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Showers likely. Chance of thunderstorms. Humid. Lows 60-67. Wind variable, mostly SW in southern areas, 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy. Showers likely. Chance of thunderstorms. Humid. Highs 68-75. Wind S to SW 10-20 MPH.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Showers ending. Less humid late. Lows 55-62. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 71-78. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 48-53 interior, coolest valleys, 53-58 elsewhere. Wind light variable.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 71-78, but cooling back to upper 60s coast afternoon. Wind light variable to NW but coastal sea breezes.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 77-84, cooler in some coastal areas especially Cape Cod. Wind variable to W 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 10-14)
Warm start to period then a cooling trend. Unsettled weather days are most likely to be June 11 with a cold front and June 13 with another low pressure area passing through the region. Other days mainly dry.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 15-19)
A generally zonal (west to east) jet stream pattern with mean ridge of high pressure centered west of New England. This pattern sends a few chances of showers/thunderstorms this way but also brings fair and seasonably warm weather in between.
