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.

Same general pattern allows warmth and humidity to become re-established along with occasional opportunities for showers/storms.

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.
