DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 23-27)
Marine air has invaded the region and as a southerly air flow overtakes the region today and continues through Tuesday and Wednesday, along with the approach of a slow-moving cold front from the west, we will see an increasing likelihood of wet weather, which is again badly needed. Drier weather returns later in the week although upper level low pressure may still trigger some showers Thursday.
TODAY: Areas of fog this morning. Mostly cloudy to partly sunny. Highs 65-73. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Lows 58-64. Wind S 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TUESDAY: Cloudy. Isolated to scattered showers. Highs 65-73. Wind S 15-25 MPH with higher gusts.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Cloudy. Showers likely, some heavy. Chance of thunderstorms. Lows 58-64. Wind S 15-25 MPH with higher gusts.
WEDNESDAY: Cloudy. Showers likely, some heavy. Chance of thunderstorms mainly early. Highs 60-68. Wind S 10-20 MPH with higher gusts early, shifting to W and gradually diminishing.
THURSDAY: Variably cloudy. Scattered showers. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 60s.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 40s. Highs from the middle 50s to lower 60s.
DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 28-NOVEMBER 1)
Weekend of October 28-29 warms up with fair weather Saturday then more clouds Sunday. A transition back to cooler again with some unsettled weather during the last 2 days of the month should lead to a fair and chilly start to November.
DAYS 11-15 (NOVEMBER 2-6)
Pattern currently looks seasonable to cool with a few episodes of unsettled weather but no major storminess.
DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 22-26)
No changes from the discussion of late yesterday. Monday’s update will be posted in the early hours of the day. In the mean time just a quick forecast update.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 65-72 coast, 72-78 interior. Wind light W early, then light variable with sea breezes.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Patchy fog. Lows 50-57. Wind light S.
MONDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 64-73, coolest immediate shore. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY: Cloudy. Scattered to numerous showers. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 60s.
WEDNESDAY: Cloudy. Periods of rain. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 60s.
THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers. Lows from the middle 40s to lower 50s. Highs from the middle 50s to lower 60s.
DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 27-31)
Mainly dry with cooler weather October 27 then moderating October 28 into October 29. Showers become more likely the last 2 days of the month with a mild start then a flip back to cooler but low confidence forecast on the end of the period.
DAYS 11-15 (NOVEMBER 1-5)
A pattern of more variable temperatures with episodes of unsettled weather expected.
DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 21-25)
Another warm weekend. If you like your autumn mild this is your autumn so far. But the good fortune will be running out before too long. We will 2 more warm days Sunday and Monday devoid of precipitation which is not helping the returning drought situation. But some relief is on the way in the form of a slow-moving cold front which will bring a transition in the form of wet weather and a slight cool down into midweek.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 48-55, coolest interior valleys. Wind light W.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 65-72 coast, 72-78 interior. Wind light W early, then light variable with sea breezes.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Patchy fog. Lows 50-57. Wind light S.
MONDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 64-73, coolest immediate shore. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY: Mainly cloudy. Scattered to numerous showers. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 60s.
WEDNESDAY: Cloudy. Periods of rain. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 60s.
DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 26-30)
Cooler October 26-27 with lingering showers followed by drying. A warm-up follows for the weekend of October 28-29 but a new trough to the west may send wet weather into the region before it’s over. Possible wet weather and likely cooling down at the end of the period.
DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 31-NOVEMBER 4)
A pattern of more variable temperatures with episodes of unsettled weather expected.
DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 20-24)
Apologies once again for late update. Hoping to shift to more regular morning posts again soon! Anyway, more fair weather so not like we had much urgent to update, other than maybe increased autumn fire danger due to gusty wind today behind an extremely weak cold front. High pressure will remain in control through Monday, though by then you may notice a slight up-tick in the humidity as the high is off to the east and we’re in a southerly air flow by then. A slow-moving cold front will approach the region Tuesday with limited or no sun, and an increased chance of wet weather, which we need badly as much of the region is now back into moderate drought. Before all that, the weekend will feature weather that is pretty much perfect for the Head Of The Charles Regatta Saturday and Sunday, as well as viewing of Orionid Meteors which peak between midnight and dawn Saturday morning and Sunday morning.
THROUGH SUNSET: Sun sinks into the western sky as expected, then sets before 5PM! Oh the shortening days! Mild and a gusty NW breeze.
OVERNIGHT: Clear. Lows 42-47 interior, 47-52 immediate shore and urban centers. Wind light W.
SATURDAY: Sunny. Highs 68-75. Wind SW 5-15 MPH but some higher gusts.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Clear. Lows 48-55. Wind SW 5-15 MPH, diminishing.
SUNDAY: Sunny. Highs 68-73 South Coast, 73-78 elsewhere. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY: Increasing clouds. Lows in the 50s. Highs from the upper 60s to middle 70s.
TUESDAY: Cloudy. Chance of showers. Lows in the 50s. Highs from the middle 60s to lower 70s.
DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 25-29)
Current indications are mild and showery then turning cooler October 25 followed by cooler with a chance of rain October 26, then drying out October 27, followed by a fair and milder period October 28-29.
DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 30-NOVEMBER 3)
Still a little uncertain how it plays out in this period but going with somewhat unsettled at times and variable temperatures as a general idea with lots of fine-tuning to do.
DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 19-23)
High pressure dominates through the weekend with fair weather and above normal temperatures but slight variations day to day with the warmest ongoing today and returning Sunday-Monday with 2 slightly cooler days Friday-Saturday.
REMAINDER OF TODAY: Sunny. Highs 68-75. Wind SW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 52-57. Wind SW 10-20 MPH shifting to NW.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 65-72. Wind NW 10-20 MPH.
SATURDAY: Sunny. Lows in the 40s. Highs in the 70s.
SUNDAY: Sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 70s.
MONDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 70s.
DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 24-28)
Slow pattern transition with periods of unsettled weather and a cooling trend. Details to be worked out.
DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 29-NOVEMBER 2)
The last few days of October may be on the cool side followed by a moderation as November starts. There is some uncertainty in the evolution of the pattern during this period so I am just a couple steps above clueless as of today and will get an idea soon.
DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 18-22)
High pressure dominates through the weekend with fair weather and above normal temperatures but slight variations in day to day temperatures as a weak nearly “invisible” cold front comes by early Friday. Still looking like great weather for viewing Orionid Meteors peaking on the nights of October 20 and 21, as well as the Head Of The Charles Regatta which will take place on the Charles River between Cambridge and Boston on October 21 and 22.
REMAINDER OF TODAY: Sunny. Highs 65-73. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Clear. Lows 45-53. Wind light SW.
THURSDAY: Sunny. Highs 68-75. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy early then sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 60s.
SATURDAY: Sunny. Lows in the 40s. Highs in the 70s.
SUNDAY: Sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 70s.
DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 23-27)
A transition takes place during this period with the high pressure ridge moving to the east and a low pressure trough dropping into the Great Lakes and Midwest, probably in 2 stages with the second being the stronger push. This leaves southern New England on the warm side of things through October 24 with dry weather to start then an increased shower risk by later October 24. Episodic unsettled weather will accompany a downward trend in temperatures mid period although it may actually spike up a little bit very end of the period between push #1 and push #2.
DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 28-NOVEMBER 1)
A new weather pattern should feature below normal temperatures and a possible period of storminess – will continue to fine-tune as it gets closer.
DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 17-21)
High pressure dominates into the weekend. The trend will be for a warm-up overall other than a very short-lived and slight cool-down for Friday as a moisture-free and nearly cloud-free front passes by early in the day. We also have the peak nights of the Orionid Meteor Shower on October 20 and 21 and conditions look idea for viewing.
REMAINDER OF TODAY: Sunny. Highs 52-60. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Clear. Areas of frost. Lows 25-32 interior valleys, 32-40 elsewhere, mildest urban areas and immediate shore. Wind light W.
WEDNESDAY: Sunny. Highs 65-73. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Clear. Lows 45-53. Wind light SW.
THURSDAY: Sunny. Highs 68-75. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy early then sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 60s.
SATURDAY: Sunny. Lows in the 40s. Highs in the 70s.
DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 22-26)
High pressure hangs on October 22-23 with dry weather and above normal temperatures. A cold front moves into the region October 24 with a shot of some wet weather. The end of the period turns colder and mainly dry.
DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 27-31)
A new weather pattern should feature below normal temperatures and a possible period of storminess – will watch for that possibility.
DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 16-20)
A cold front passed through the region overnight and has put an end to the warm spell and returned a more seasonable fall feel to southeastern New England, which will be around for a couple days before a new warm-up gets underway during midweek only to be trimmed back on Friday by a weak front.
TODAY: Lots of clouds southeastern MA early with perhaps a shower, otherwise sun and passing clouds. Highs 60-65. Wind NW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 34-43, coolest interior and rural areas. Wind NW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.

THURSDAY: Sunny. Lows from the upper 30s to middle 40s. Highs from the upper 60s to middle 70s.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 40s. Highs in the 60s.
DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 21-25)
Expect fair/mild weather for the October 21-22 weekend followed by a cool-down. Some unsettled weather may impact the region toward the ned of the period.
DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 26-30)
The indications continue to be for the mean ridge of high pressure shifting west and a trough being more prominent in the East, bringing up and down temperatures and a more unsettled weather pattern.
DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 15-19)
The feel of summer rules today as we continue in the overall warm-ridge pattern. A cold front will push through the region tonight though, and bring cooler air for the start of the week, but another warm-up will follow this as the overall pattern remains in place. There is likely to be some large temperature variations especially regarding overnight lows across the region, and the spread from those to daytime highs, as is typical for a weather pattern dominated by high pressure.
TODAY: Clouds and areas of fog dominate into mid morning then sun and passing clouds. Humid. Highs 68-75 South Coast, 76-83 elsewhere. Wind SW increasing to 15-25 MPH with higher gusts.

THURSDAY: Sunny. Lows from the upper 30s to middle 40s. Highs from the upper 60s to middle 70s.
DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 20-24)
The first few days of the period will likely be dry and warmer than normal as the current pattern continues, then there are indications of a little more unsettled and up/down temperature pattern trying to get underway later in the period.
DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 25-29)
A trend to more up/down temps and unsettled weather may continue but low confidence at this time.
DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 14-18)
REMAINDER OF TODAY: Clouds more abundant SE. Highs 64-73. Wind S 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 24-28)
Watching for a shift to more unsettled weather and variable temperatures.
DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 13-17)
High pressure will remain in general control of the weather. It remain on the cool side today then will warm up by the weekend as the air flow turns more southerly Saturday and southwesterly Sunday. During the transition, cloudiness and a few showers are possible for a time on Saturday, and then a cold front will cross the region late Sunday through early Monday with a few showers and a flip to cooler air again.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 58-65. Wind light E to SE.
TONIGHT: Increasing clouds. Lows 48-55. Wind light SE.

TUESDAY: Sunny to partly cloudy. Lows in the 40s. Highs from the upper 50s to middle 60s.
DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 18-22)
High pressure is expected to dominate with mainly dry weather and a gradual temperature moderation.
DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 23-27)
High pressure in control early in the period promotes dry/mild conditions followed by a transition to a more up/down temperature pattern with episodes of of wet weather.
DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 12-16)
High pressure will remain in general control of the weather but it will be cooler for a couple days due to a northeasterly air flow at the surface, then will warm up by the weekend as the flow turns more southerly Saturday and southwesterly Sunday. During the transition, cloudiness and a few showers are possible for a time on Saturday, and then a cold front will cross the region late Sunday through early Monday with a few showers and a flip to cooler air again.

DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 22-26)
High pressure in control early in the period promotes dry/mild conditions followed by a transition to a more up/down temperature pattern with episodes of of wet weather.
DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 11-15)
A disturbance from the west sends cloudiness and eventually some patches of light rain into parts of southern New England through tonight before being pushed to the south by dominant high pressure re-building over the region. This high will continue to dominate even into the weekend, but its positioning being slightly further east by then will allow some increase in humidity.
TODAY: Increasing clouds. Highs 62-67. Wind light NE.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy evening with a slight chance of light rain. Clearing north to south overnight. Lows 50-55. Wind light NE.
THURSDAY: Sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 57-63. Wind NE to N 5-15 MPH.

SUNDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 70s.
DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 16-20)
Cold front passing through may bring brief showers October 16 followed by fair slightly cooler weather for the balance of the period.
DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 21-25)
There may be an increased rain risk before this period is over, but low confidence forecast at this time.
DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 10-14)
Quick discussion. Today was great wasn’t it?! A disturbance makes a run at the region Wednesday but will only manage to push some light rain into parts of the region Wednesday night before high pressure says “nope!” and shunts it to the south while killing it off for good measure. This high pressure will regain and retain control through the start of the weekend.
EVENING: Clear. Temperatures cool through 60s. Wind light N.
OVERNIGHT: Clear. Lows 48-56. Wind light N.
WEDNESDAY: Increasing clouds. Highs 62-67. Wind light NE.

DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 15-19)
Fair/mild October 15. Weak front brings nothing but some clouds and a slight cool down early October 16 then more fair weather dominates with temperatures generally above normal.
DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 20-24)
The drier and warmer than average weather pattern is now expected to continue as high pressure holds strong.
DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 9-13)
The remains of Hurricane Nate will track across the Northeast today and tonight, bringing tropical humidity and some significant rain. There’s enough energy in the atmosphere to support a few thunderstorms, some of which may produce brief flooding and possible wind damage. Not looking for this to be a widespread issue, but it is possible so be aware just in case. There should be two main thrusts of moisture coming through the region, one in the morning and another from late afternoon through early evening. By early Tuesday it will move away but the day will remain warm and somewhat humid. By Wednesday, cooler/drier air will have arrived from Canada and will linger into Thursday, but during this time a disturbance from the southwest will make run at the region but will be running into building upper level high pressure which may dry most of it out. This ridge should continue to build through Friday as well.
TODAY: Cloudy. Areas of fog early. Occasional showers and possible thunderstorms including some heavy rain and possible strong wind gusts. Humid. Highs 68-75. Wind S to SW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Cloudy with numerous showers and possible thunderstorms early then ending southwest to northeast. Clearing overnight. Patchy fog. Humid. Lows 62-67. Wind SW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.

THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy. Lows from the upper 40s to middle 50s. Highs from the upper 50s to middle 60s.
FRIDAY: Partly sunny. Lows from the middle 40s to lower 50s. Highs in the 60s.
DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 14-18)
A ridge of high pressure dominates early in the period with fair and mild to warm weather. A front may slip through from north to south with a cooling trend sometime during the October 15-17 period before a warm-up again at the end of the period. No significant storminess expected.
DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 19-23)
Transitional pattern between dominating high pressure and passing troughs in a jet stream a little closer to or over the region would result in a few opportunities for showers and a more up and down temperature regime.
