COMMENTARY
The Summer Solstice occurred at 6:07AM EDT so it’s now officially summer by astronomical standards, lagging behind almost everyone else’s definition of the start of summer, and proving, though probably to no real benefit, once again why it doesn’t do us good to rush the seasons. Interesting how we’ve decided to ignore the real in favor of the made-up, but that’s how we do it in society I suppose.

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 21-25)
A disturbance that passed south of the region overnight exits early today with no more than few rain drops around Nantucket, but a frontal boundary coming down from the north along with a developing sea breeze will set up a wind convergence area and may trigger a few showers and maybe even a thunderstorm this afternoon and very early evening anywhere from the Boston and Worcester metro areas southward. High pressure will control the weather Friday but a light onshore flow will keep it on the cooler side of average. The weekend will be somewhat unsettled but not a washout. I would not cancel any plans at this point. We’ll see a warm front pass through the region by Saturday night, and ahead of it we’ll see abundant cloudiness and patchy rain, but a good amount of this rain may peel off to the east and push through southeastern areas from Saturday morning to early afternoon, leaving much of the region rain-free. Humidity spikes by early Sunday and by later Sunday a cold front will be moving through the region bringing a fairly widespread shower risk. Drier air arrives Monday but one additional disturbance passing through may still trigger a few showers, but that being 5 days away is far from a certainty. Forecast details…
TODAY: Variably cloudy morning with brief rain Nantucket. Partly sunny afternoon with isolated to scattered showers and possibly a thunderstorm in MA/RT/eastern CT. Highs 73-81, coolest coast. Wind light variable early then E 5-15 MPH except N 5-15 MPH over central MA to eastern CT.
TONIGHT: Clearing. Patchy fog interior wetlands. Lows 50-55 interior valleys, 55-60 elsewhere. Wind light variable.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 68-75 coast, 75-82 inland. Wind light variable with sea breezes.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Increasing clouds. Lows 55-62. Wind light SE.
SATURDAY: Mostly cloudy. A few periods of rain possible, favoring southeastern areas from mid morning through early afternoon. Highs 65-70 coast, 70-75 interior. Wind SE 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers to general showers favoring afternoon and evening. Humid. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the middle 70s to lower 80s.
MONDAY: Partly sunny. Isolated to scattered showers possible. Less humid. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 70s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 26-30)
Expecting mainly dry weather for this period but will watch for small disturbances coming along a weaker jet stream in a general west to east flow. Temperatures near to above normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 1-5)
Much of this period looks dry with minimal shower and thunderstorm threat but always need to watch for disturbances with the jet stream not too far to the north. Temperatures generally above normal with a high pressure ridge in the eastern US.

7:22AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 20-24)
A disturbance will pass south of the region tonight and early Thursday, bringing some cloudiness but it is still looking to me like the rain at worst skirts the South Coast but otherwise stays south of the region. Cannot rule out a pop up shower Thursday afternoon interior MA to RI and eastern CT as there will be a little air convergence there. By Saturday, a warm front moving through the region may bring a few patches of insignificant light rain to the region. Don’t cancel any plans. This will be followed by a cold front crossing the region later Sunday, which may end up as a cloudier but muggy day overall with a threat of showers and possible thunderstorms. Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly sunny morning. Partly sunny afternoon. Highs 76-84, coolest coast. Wind light variable to SW but local coastal sea breezes.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Brief rain possible South Coast. Lows 52-60. Wind light variable.
THURSDAY: Clouds most dominant southern areas early otherwise partly to mostly sunny. A pop up shower possible mainly mid to late afternoon central MA, RI, and eastern CT. Highs 75-83, coolest coast. Wind light E to SE except NE to N over central MA to eastern CT.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Clearing. Lows 50-55 interior valleys, 55-60 elsewhere. Wind light variable.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 75-80 coast, 80-85 inland. Wind light variable with sea breezes.
SATURDAY: Variably cloudy. Slight chance of brief light rain. More humid at night. Lows from the upper 50s to lower 60s. Highs from the middle 70s to lower 80s, coolest coastal areas.
SUNDAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers. Chance of thunderstorms. Humid. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the middle 70s to lower 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 25-29)
Expecting mainly dry weather for this period but will watch for small disturbances coming along a weaker jet stream in a general west to east flow. A trough nearby early in the period means temperatures will start out slightly below normal and a ridge to the west later in the period translates into warmer weather arriving.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 30-JULY 4)
Much of this period looks dry with minimal shower and thunderstorm threat. Temperatures trending above normal.

7:25AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 19-23)
In comes the dry air today and this leads to a period of more seasonable weather over the next several days with temperature in each location dependent on wind direction and/or speed. For example, tonight will be a cool night over interior valleys as dry air is in place and wind drops to calm. Coastal areas will often be cooler during the second half of the week as the air flow will come the cooler ocean water. But other than a shower to start the day around Cape Cod and the Islands today, expect generally 5 days of dry weather ahead. Disturbance that threatened to bring light rain to the South Coast late Wednesday appears that it will stay too far south to do so. Summer arrives with the solstice at 6:07AM Thursday June 21. Forecast details…
TODAY: Partly cloudy morning including an early shower around Cape Cod, then sunnier afternoon. Highs 75-83. Wind NW 5-15 MPH gusting 20 MPH or greater at times.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 50-55 interior, 55-60 coastal areas and urban centers. Wind diminishing to calm.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 76-84, coolest coast. Wind light variable to SW but local coastal sea breezes.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 52-60. Wind light variable.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 75-83, coolest coast. Wind light E to SE.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the middle 50s to lower 60s. Highs from the middle 70s to middle 80s, coolest coastal areas.
SATURDAY: Partly sunny. Lows from the upper 50s to lower 60s. Highs from the middle 70s to lower 80s, coolest coastal areas.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 24-28)
A disturbance comes through the region and brings the threat of showers June 24 followed by another threat of showers around June 27. Temperatures start the period near to even slightly below normal but end it near to above normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 29-JULY 3)
Much of this period looks dry with minimal shower and thunderstorm threat. Temperatures trending above normal.

6:41AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 18-22)
A one-day stand for heat/humidity and a chance of thunderstorms today as a shot of summer comes in just ahead of a cold front that will then sink southward across southern New England tonight. As for timing of storms, any time after 2PM from north to south, but they may come in several waves into the nighttime hours. Don’t look for widespread severe weather. Despite the heat and humidity, some parameters are poor to marginal for severe weather so though storms in some areas may be strong to locally severe, this should be isolated and short-lived. Once this all pushes out of the region early Tuesday, a drying trend takes over. But the front will never get that far south of the region and a disturbance riding along it, though currently expected to stay far enough south to keep most of its rain out of the region, will likely spread cloudiness back into the area Wednesday, and brief rain may reach the South Coast area, before it clears out Thursday and the end of the week sees fair and warm weather. Forecast details…
TODAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms mid afternoon on. Humid. Highs 70-77 Cape Cod, 78-87 remainder of South Coast, 88-96 elsewhere. Wind W 10-20 MPH. Winds can be variable, strong, and gusty near any storms.
TONIGHT: Variably cloudy. Scattered showers/thunderstorms. Patchy fog. Humid. Lows 66-74. Wind variable 5-15 MPH. Wind can be strong and gusty near any storms.
TUESDAY: Clearing. Lowering humidity. Highs 78-85. Wind NW to N 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Clear. Lows 56-63. Wind light N.
WEDNESDAY: Increasing clouds. Risk of light rain South Coast at night. Highs 75-83. Wind light variable.
THURSDAY: Clearing. Lows from the upper 50s to lower 60s. Highs from the middle 70s to lower 80s.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows from the upper 50s to lower 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 23-27)
High pressure brings fair weather June 23. Trough from the west brings a chance of wet weather June 24. Fair weather returns June 25-26 before the next risk of showers around June 27. Temperatures somewhat variable but averaging near normal overall.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 28-JULY 2)
Much of this period is expected to see dry weather with temperatures near to above normal.

7:29AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 17-21)
This Father’s Day morning I’m coming as close as I ever will to taking a day off and basically using yesterday’s blog as a copy/paste/edit because there really are no changes to the forecast anyway. Good timing. Beautiful day today, heat and humidity blast Monday, thunderstorm threat later Monday and Monday night (still have to work out the timing and more specific threats), heat departs and humidity drops off Tuesday, and more great weather middle of next week. Forecast details…
TODAY: Sunshine with a few high clouds at times. Highs 72-78 all coastal areas, 78-85 interior except 85-90 interior valleys. Wind light variable with sea breezes.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Increasingly humid. Lows 58-67. Wind W up to 10 MPH.
MONDAY: Partly cloudy. Late-day or evening thunderstorms possible especially southern NH and northern MA. Humid. Highs 82-90 South Coast, 90-97 elsewhere. Wind W 10-20 MPH. Winds near any storms may be variable, strong, and gusty.
MONDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Scattered showers/thunderstorms. Any storms may be strong. Humid. Lows 65-72. Wind W 5-15 MPH but can be variable, strong, and gusty near any storms.
TUESDAY: Variably cloudy with possible showers morning. Clearing afternoon. Humid early, then drying. Highs 77-84. Wind NW to N 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the middle 50s to lower 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the upper 50s to lower 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 22-26)
This looks like a mainly dry period with one interruption possible around June 24 with the potential for some wet weather. Temperatures near to above normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 27-JULY 1)
A brief shower threat around June 27 otherwise more of the same with mainly dry weather and temperatures near to above normal.

10:14AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 16-20)
Trying to fine-tune things regarding the heat and any thunderstorm chance timing for Monday and will continue to work on that. Latest thoughts on that are the MCS threat stays mainly in Maine early Monday but that may set up a boundary or pre-frontal trough that could kick of a line of storms pushing from north northwest to south southeast late Monday afternoon to Monday evening. High heat is a certainty, along with humidity, for Monday itself, but still the temperature details will again come down to the amount of cloudiness in the sky during the hours of maximum heating. Before all of this, we have a great weekend, though don’t expect 100% clear sky the entire time. We will see episodic high level cloudiness, the remains of thunderstorms way upstream in southern Canada and the upper Plains and Midwest. Again, as stated before, this is a typical pattern for this time of year. Still thinking that a little humidity and a shower risk hangs on at least part of Tuesday before dry air returns into midweek. Forecast details…
TODAY: Sunshine with intervals of high clouds. Highs 73-79 South Coast, 79-86 elsewhere. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear to partly cloudy. Lows 52-58 except 58-65 urban centers. Wind W under 10 MPH.
SUNDAY: Sunshine with a few high clouds at times. Highs 72-78 all coastal areas, 78-85 interior except 85-90 interior valleys. Wind light variable with sea breezes.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Increasingly humid. Lows 58-67. Wind W up to 10 MPH.
MONDAY: Partly cloudy. Late-day or evening thunderstorms possible especially southern NH and northern MA progressing southward but probably weakening later evening into night. Humid. Highs 82-90 South Coast, 90-97 elsewhere. Wind W 10-20 MPH. Winds near any storms may be variable, strong, and gusty.
TUESDAY: Variably cloudy with possible showers morning. Clearing afternoon. Humid, then drying. Lows from the middle 60s to lower 70s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the middle 50s to lower 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 21-25)
This looks like a mainly dry period with one interruption possible around June 24 with the potential for some wet weather. Temperatures near to above normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 26-30)
A brief shower threat around June 26-27 otherwise more of the same with mainly dry weather and temperatures near to above normal.

7:18AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 15-19)
A disturbance will take its time moving through the region from north to south today which will be somewhat unsettled and on the cool side. Quick change for the weekend as a warmer westerly fair flow takes over. A quick shot of heat for Monday which may be lead in by a shower or thunderstorm in the early hours and ended by a few showers and storms Monday night or early Tuesday before the heat eases, although the humidity that arrives for Monday may be slow to depart on Tuesday as this particular front will not come charging through with a big push of dry air immediately. Forecast details…
TODAY: Mainly cloudy morning with scattered to widespread showers. Slow clearing trend north to south afternoon. Highs 68-75. Wind E to NE 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Patchy ground fog. Lows 50-55 except 55-60 urban areas. Wind light N.
SATURDAY: Sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 78-85. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Partly to mostly clear. Lows 58-65. Wind light W.
SUNDAY: Sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 78-83 Cape Cod, 84-89 elsewhere. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY: Pre-dawn shower or thunderstorm possible. Sun and clouds day. Nighttime shower or thunderstorm possible. Humid. Lows from the middle to upper 60s. Highs from the middle 80s to middle 90s, coolest South Coast.
TUESDAY: Partly sunny. Chance of a shower or thunderstorm favoring southern areas. Humid. Lows from the middle 60s to lower 70s. Highs in the 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 20-24)
Mainly dry and seasonable much of this period then some wet weather may arrive late in the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 25-29)
A couple disturbances will bring brief shower and thunderstorm threats but overall dry weather with temperatures near to above normal.

7:09AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 14-18)
An upper level trough will swing through New England from northwest to southeast later today through early Friday bringing some cloudiness and triggering a few showers, though most of the time will be dry and comfortable. A great weekend is coming up with plenty of sun and a warm up, and by Monday the heat will be on, the degree of which will be determined by the amount of sunshine, which is a wildcard based on debris cloudiness from thunderstorms in the Great Lakes and adjacent southern Canada – a pattern fairly typical of this time of year. An approaching front from the north may trigger storms here by later Monday. Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly to partly sunny. Highs 75-82. Wind W 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Variably cloudy. Isolated showers. Lows 55-62. Wind NW 10-20 MPH.
FRIDAY: Variably cloudy with a possible shower early, then partly to mostly sunny. Highs 73-80. Wind NW 10-20 MPH.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 50-57. Wind N 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 75-80 Cape Cod, 80-85 elsewhere. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the middle 50s to lower 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to upper 80s, coolest Cape Cod.
MONDAY: Partly sunny. Humid. Chance of late-day thunderstorms. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s South Coast, upper 80s to middle 90s elsewhere.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 19-23)
Humidity and a shower threat may linger into early June 19 before drying out. A disturbance may bring a shower around June 21 or 22 otherwise mainly dry and seasonable weather expected during much of this period.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 24-28)
Wet weather threat early in the period when it will be coolest, then seasonable to warmer thereafter and will watch for a disturbance around the middle of the period with a shower threat.

7:11AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 13-17)
Low pressure passes north of the region today and tonight, dragging a warm front through the region this afternoon with a few showers. By the time a cold front passes through overnight, the showers/thunderstorms with it will have weakened to just a few isolated showers, although a few downpours may still accompany it. Dry air returns Thursday after a brief shot of humidity later today into this evening, but a cold pool of air with an upper level trough has to come through the region late Thursday into Friday and may trigger an additional shower, favoring northern and eastern areas. The weekend will be dry and will start to heat up. Forecast details…
TODAY: Clouding over. Scattered showers midday to late afternoon from west to east. Greatest risk of a moderate or heavy shower South Coast. More humid. Highs 70-75 South Coast, 76-81 elsewhere. Wind SW 10-20 MPH and gusty.
TONIGHT: Variably cloudy. Isolated showers, mainly late evening from west to east with a brief downpour possible. Humid evening, less humid overnight. Lows 57-64. Wind SW 5-15 MPH with higher gusts, shifting to west.
THURSDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 75-82. Wind W 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Isolated showers. Lows 55-62. Wind NW 10-20 MPH.
FRIDAY: Variably cloudy with a possible shower early, then partly to mostly sunny. Highs 73-80. Wind NW 10-20 MPH.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs from the middle 70s to middle 80s, coolest Cape Cod.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the middle 50s to lower 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to upper 80s, coolest Cape Cod.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 18-22)
Brief heat ends with a thunderstorm threat June 18 and showers that may linger into early June 19. Another system may bring a shower threat before the end of the period with temperatures closer to or slightly below normal before warming at the end of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 23-27)
Another brief cool-down early in the period and an additional wet weather threat about June 24 before a fair and warmer period of weather.

7:18AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 12-16)
High pressure sinks south of the region today and brings a warmer southwesterly air flow today. A low pressure area passing north of New England Wednesday will drag its warm front / cold front duo through here but timing will not allow any powerful thunderstorms to get going as the warm frontal showers will take place mostly mid morning to early afternoon and any shower/storm threat from the cold front comes too late in the evening, as there is otherwise not a lot of support other than warm and humid air and some daytime heating for such activity. Drier air returns for the remainder of the week but a pool of chilly air above will trigger some clouds both Thursday and Friday, and though I expect most shower activity to be in the mountains Thursday and Maine Friday, can’t rule one out into southern NH or northeastern MA Thursday. Forecast details…
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 73-78 South Coast, 79-84 elsewhere. Wind SW 10-15 MPH, gusts 20-30 MPH at times.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear evening. Increasing clouds overnight. Lows 55-62. Wind SW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy through early afternoon with a couple periods of showers most likely from mid morning to around noon. Variably cloudy mid afternoon on. Humid. Highs 73-78 South Coast, 79-84 elsewhere. Wind SW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Isolated showers or thunderstorms possible before midnight. Patchy fog. Lowering humidity. Lows 55-62. Wind SW 5-15 MPH shifting to W.
THURSDAY: Partly cloudy. Slight risk of a shower late-day in southern NH and northeastern MA. Highs 75-82. Wind W 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 50s. Highs from the middle to upper 70s.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 17-21)
Heat builds June 17-18 but low humidity and dry weather June 17 followed by higher humidity and the risk of showers/thunderstorms June 18. Generally fair and seasonably warm weather is expected for the remainder of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 22-26)
A brief cool down early in the period followed by a wet weather threat mid period before fair and seasonable weather returns.

7:33AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 11-15)
High pressure centered to the north brings an easterly air flow today, which will be the coolest day, and we also have some cloudiness around to start, which will break up as the day goes on. High pressure sinks to the south and a warmer westerly flow arrives Tuesday, turning southwest and adding humidity and the only shower and thunderstorm threat of the week on Wednesday ahead of a cold front. Once this front goes by it’s back to dry weather for the remainder of the period as another high pressure area builds in. Forecast details…
TODAY: Cloud-dominant start leading to a sun-dominant finish. Highs 65-70 coast, 70-75 inland. Wind E to SE 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 53-62, coolest interior valleys and mildest urban areas. Wind light variable.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 75-80 South Coast, 80-85 elsewhere. Wind SW to W 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 60-67. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Partly cloudy. Chance of a shower or thunderstorm. More humid. Highs 78-86. Wind SW 10-20 MPH.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs from the middle 70s to lower 80s.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 16-20)
At this point it looks like a largely dry period with temperatures near to above normal. Will have to watch for passing shower or thunderstorm threats around the middle and end of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 21-25)
Fair with a slight cool down early period, a period of rain may follow that as warmer air tries to make a return.

11:19AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 10-14)
A disturbance passing further south than it looked like it would several days ago makes the difference with the result being a shield of ice crystals about 35,000 feet above the ground over southern MA, CT, & RI, instead of a thick overcast and rain falling to the ground, over the entire area. End result: A beautiful day, but with two negative impacts, the first being prolific pollen production and distribution, and the second being the lack of rain adding to a growing dryness issue. Though the pollen problem will be quite visible for another week or so, the dryness issue will not be so easily seen as trees etc. are in great condition and don’t show signs of stress right away. Should this go on long enough, we will see that start to show up in trees and lawns, etc., as we go into the summer. I’m not quite sure how long the issue will be yet but I am pretty sure we’re in it for at least as long as this blog forecast projects out. But that aside, it is a beautiful weather pattern we are in now and will continue to be in, with the only interruption being a humidity spike and a risk of showers/thunderstorms on Wednesday. Forecast details…
TODAY: Partly cloudy to sunny. High 68-74 coast, 74-80 inland. Wind light variable with sea breezes.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Patchy valley fog. Lows 50-57. Wind light variable.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 70-75 coast, 75-80 inland. Wind SE up to 10 MPH.
MONDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 53-62, coolest interior valleys and mildest urban areas. Wind light variable.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 75-80 South Coast, 80-85 elsewhere. Wind SW to W 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Partly cloudy. Chance of a shower or thunderstorm. More humid. Lows from the upper 50s to middle 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs from the middle 70s to lower 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 15-19)
A general west to east flow will dominate. Weak fronts or disturbances about around June 15 and 17 may produce brief shower threats, otherwise dry weather will be dominant overall. Temperatures averaging near to above normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 20-24)
A continuation of the pattern of days 6-10 is expected. Overall pattern is dry to start, but a broader trough will probably send a low pressure system through with unsettled conditions for the June 23-24 weekend. Temperatures variable but averaging near normal overall.

9:36AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 9-13)
This is one of those days you can kind of cheat on a forecast update and essentially use yesterday’s forecast and just do minor tweaks. I wont lie, that’s all I’m about to do, because there are really no changes to what I wrote yesterday, so just right to the forecast details of a now dry pattern. In fact, only next Wednesday may we feel some humidity and see the chance of a passing shower or thunderstorm.
TODAY: Sunshine dominant morning. Limited sun afternoon. Highs 75-83. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Variably cloudy. Lows 50-57. Wind light variable.
SUNDAY: Partly cloudy to sunny. High 68-74 coast, 74-80 inland. Wind light variable with sea breezes.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Patchy valley fog. Lows 50-57. Wind light variable.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 70-75 coast, 75-80 inland. Wind SE up to 10 MPH.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the middle 50s to lower 60s. Highs from the middle 70s coast to middle 80s inland.
WEDNESDAY: Partly cloudy. Chance of a shower or thunderstorm. More humid. Lows from the upper 50s to middle 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 14-18)
A general west to east flow will dominate. Weak fronts or disturbances about around June 15 and 17 may produce brief shower threats, otherwise dry weather will be dominant overall. Temperatures averaging near to above normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 19-23)
A continuation of the pattern of days 6-10 is expected. Overall pattern is dry, but passing disturbances bring brief wet weather threats. Temperatures variable but averaging near normal overall.

7:22AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 8-12)
5 dry days ahead with temperature determined by wind direction which itself will be determined by our position relative to areas of high pressure that will control the weather during this time. A disturbance that once looked like it could make part of the weekend wet or cloudy may only bring a few clouds for part of it, otherwise will be so far south we’d never know it was really there. Forecast details…
TODAY: Sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 75-83. Wind W 5-15 MPH, few higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy to clear. Lows 53-59.Wind N 5-10 MPH, few higher gusts.
SATURDAY: Sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 75-83. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Lows 50-57. Wind light variable.
SUNDAY: Partly cloudy to sunny. High 68-74 coast, 74-80 inland. Wind light variable with sea breezes.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs from the lower 70s coast to upper 70s inland.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the middle 50s to lower 60s. Highs from the middle 70s coast to middle 80s inland.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 13-17)
A general west to east flow will dominate. Weak fronts around June 13, 15, and 17 may produce brief shower threats otherwise dry weather will be dominant overall. Temperatures averaging not too far from normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 18-22)
A continuation of the pattern of days 6-10 is expected. Overall pattern is dry, but passing disturbances bring brief wet weather threats. Temperatures variable but averaging near normal overall.

7:17AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 7-11)
Warmer weather arrives today and lasts into the weekend as a warm frontal boundary lifts north of the region today then comes back as an insignificant cold front with no precipitation on Friday. It will take until Sunday for it to turn a little cooler as a disturbance passes well south of the region with cloudiness but any rainfall likely near or just south of the South Coast.
