DAYS 1-5 (JULY 14-18)
An unseasonably cool northeasterly air flow continues today and then shifts more to the southeast and south during Saturday. During this time some energy will still be coming through above from west to east. This will result in a very slow improvement in the weather. By Sunday, the feel of summer will be back, but there will be yet another disturbance, albeit weak, moving in from the northwest, so I can no longer forecast full sun and zero shower risk, and this will also be the story for the beginning of next week.
TODAY: Cloudy. Scattered showers, mainly southern MA, CT, RI. Highs 64-72. Wind NE 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Cloudy. Isolated showers, mainly southern MA, CT, RI. Lows 58-64. Wind E 5-10 MPH.
SATURDAY: Mostly cloudy with isolated to scattered showers morning. Partly sunny with isolated showers afternoon. Highs 68-78, coolest coast. Wind light SE.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 60-67. Wind light S.
SUNDAY: Partly cloudy. Slight risk of isolated showers. Highs 77-86, coolest South Coast. Wind S to SW 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY: Partly cloudy. Slight risk of isolated showers. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s, coolest South Coast.
TUESDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated to scattered thunderstorms. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s, coolest South Coast.
DAYS 6-10 (JULY 19-23)
Fairly typical mid summer weather. Warm to hot with a few episodes of isolated to scattered showers/thunderstorms, but rain-free most of the time.
DAYS 11-15 (JULY 24-28)
A similar pattern is expected to continue heading into late July. There are subtle signs that high pressure may strengthen even more and result in more heat.
