9:49AM

DAYS 1-5 (JULY 5-9)…
3 disturbances impact the region during this period. The first, today, has brought some rain across the region this morning but will be moving out by midday. Some lingering instability and moisture may be enough to pop a couple showers and thunderstorms in isolated locations this afternoon or early evening, but most areas will see vastly improved weather this afternoon. A great summer day is expected Wednesday, though compared to recent weather it may be a little hot and humid for some folks. The next disturbance arrives Thursday and increases the risk of showers and thunderstorms. Though I’m not expecting a widespread outbreak, it is possible that we may have to deal with some severe thunderstorms. The third system will arrive late Friday into Saturday with another shower/thunderstorm risk, but at this early stage I think that the timing of this system may not be optimal to maximize severe weather potential. It’s still too early for details on this system and there will be plenty of fine-tuning to do.
TODAY: Mainly cloudy with rain ending west to east late morning. Partly to mostly sunny this afternoon with isolated thunderstorms. More humid. Highs in the 80s except some upper 70s immediate shoreline. Wind light variable with light sea breezes near the coast.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows in the 60s. Wind light variable.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs in the 80s at the coast, lower 90s interior. Wind light W becoming variable with light sea breezes near the coast.
THURSDAY: Partly cloudy. Scattered showers/thunderstorms afternoon and night. Humid. Lows from the middle 60s to lower 70s. Highs from the middle 80s to lower 90s.
FRIDAY: Partly to mostly cloudy. Chance of showers late-day and at night. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 80s.
SATURDAY: Mostly to partly cloudy. Chance of showers/thunderstorms in the morning. Isolated additional showers/thunderstorms later in the day. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 80s except some 70s South Coast.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 10-14)…
Dry and a little cooler July 10. Risk of showers July 11 along the border of cooler air in place and advancing hot air from the southwest, which will likely arrive during the middle to end of the period.

DAYS 10-15 (JULY 15-19)…
Heat eases early in the period then returns again later in the period. Limited shower/thunderstorm chances.

6:41AM

Happy Independence Day!

DAYS 1-5 (JULY 4-8)…
Fabulous Fourth! Today will be a top 10 summer day. But we’ve already had enough top tens that we probably need to change that to a top 25. Either way, a great day under the influence of high pressure. Disturbance coming at us tomorrow delivers some rain mainly to the far southern areas and maybe a pop up storm to a few other locations later in the day from the combination of heat and increased moisture. Heat arrives for midweek, and thunderstorm chances go up later in the week as a series of disturbances move through.
TODAY – INDEPENDENCE DAY: Mostly sunny. Highs in the 80s. Wind W up to 10 MPH.
TONIGHT: Increasing clouds. Lows in the 60s. Wind light W shifting to S.
TUESDAY: Mainly cloudy through midday with a risk of rain and possible thunderstorms, especially far southern MA, CT, and RI. Partly cloudy mid to late afternoon with isolated late-day showers or thunderstorms possible. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the middle 80s to lower 90s.
THURSDAY: Partly sunny. Chance of late-day showers or thunderstorms. Lows from the middle 60s to lower 70s. Highs from the middle 80s to lower 90s.
FRIDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of showers and thunderstorms. Lows from the upper 60s to lower 70s. Highs in the 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 9-13)…
Shower and thunderstorm threat at times as the jet stream will be nearby. Temperatures near to above normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 14-18)…
Similar pattern continues with a couple hard-to-time disturbances bringing passing shower/thunderstorm threats, otherwise mainly dry weather with temperatures near to above normal.

8:07AM

DAYS 1-5 (JULY 3-7)…
If there is one change to the forecast it will be to bring a low pressure area that was expected to stay further south a bit further north and introduce the chance of a period of wet weather (rain and embedded thunderstorms) for at least southern portions of the region (CT, RI, and parts of MA) sometime on Tuesday. Forecast will be adjusted to reflect this since it is a big vacation week for many, even beyond the July 4 holiday. Great weather will still take place today and for the holiday itself! Beyond this, the heat of summer will be felt by the middle of next week but the guard for thunderstorms should be up by the end of the period as the jet stream will be nearby and that’s an avenue for disturbances, which are not often well-forecast in advance and are difficult to time.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs in the 80s. Wind W 10-20 MPH with a few higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows in the 60s. Wind W 5-15 MPH with a few higher gusts.
MONDAY – INDEPENDENCE DAY: Mostly sunny. Highs in the 80s. Wind W up to 10 MPH.
MONDAY NIGHT: Increasing clouds. Lows in the 60s. Wind light W shifting to S.
TUESDAY: Mainly cloudy through midday with a risk of rain and possible thunderstorms, especially southern MA, CT, and RI. Partly cloudy mid to late afternoon with isolated late-day showers or thunderstorms possible. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the middle 80s to lower 90s.
THURSDAY: Partly sunny. Chance of late-day showers or thunderstorms. Lows from the middle 60s to lower 70s. Highs from the middle 80s to lower 90s.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 8-12)…
Shower/thunderstorm risk especially later July 8 to early July 9 depending on the timing of a disturbance and frontal system. Fair weather returns later on July 9. Next disturbance may arrive sometime July 10 into July 11 with another shower/thunderstorm risk. Overall temperatures near to above normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 13-17)…
Similar pattern carries into mid July with a couple hard-to-time disturbances bringing passing shower/thunderstorm threats, otherwise mainly dry weather with temperatures near to above normal.

9:25AM

DAYS 1-5 (JULY 2-6)…
Broad low pressure in eastern Canada and high pressure to the southwest of New England will create a little squeeze play today with a gusty breeze as the dry air flows in, but it will still be a fairly warm day with sunshine and some eventual passing clouds. High pressure will gain control and continue its dominance for the remainder of the period with great summer weather. Humidity will be low, but will start to be felt by the end of the period, about Wednesday. A word of caution for anyone using outdoor fireworks (hopefully only where they are legal). With the dry ground from the lack of rainfall and a gusty breeze this weekend, the risk of starting fires will be greater than usual, so please use utmost caution if you will be partaking in such activity.
TODAY: Sunshine and passing clouds. Highs from the lower to middle 80s. Wind W 10-20 MPH with gusts as high as 30 MPH.
TONIGHT: A few clouds then clear. Lows from the lower to middle 60s. Wind W 5-15 MPH with gusts as high as 20 MPH.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs from the lower to middle 80s. Wind W 5-15 MPH with gusts as high as 20 MPH.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows from the lower to middle 60s. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY – INDEPENDENCE DAY: Sunny. Highs in the 80s. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY NIGHT: Clear. Lows in the 60s. Wind light W.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs from the middle 80s to lower 90s, cooler Cape Cod.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the middle 80s to lower 90s, cooler Cape Cod.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 7-11)…
Some heat and humidity around for July 7-8 with the threat for some shower and thunderstorm activity, but not sure how this plays out yet. Fair weather expected July 9 but a return of a shower and thunderstorm risk for a portion of July 10 and/or 11 depending on timing of next system.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 12-16)…
Still looks like overall a warmer than normal pattern and limited thunderstorm chances.

7:35AM

DAYS 1-5 (JULY 1-5)…
Though many want to focus on days 2 through 4, the holiday weekend, our main focus today should be day 1, which is where the only threat of unsettled weather will be. But there will be folks fortunate enough to have today off that may cancel beach plans after looking at a weather app and seeing “thunderstorms” there. It’s important to focus on the details, which those apps fall short of being able to do. But fortunately, you have come to the right place. The focus will follow this shameless self-plug for the blog. But you have indeed come to the right place for a description of what the weather is expected to do in basic terms, with more technical explanation in the comments that follow. So what is really going on today? A brief push of humidity ahead of and accompanying a disturbance, which will send a cold front eastward across the region tonight. Ahead of this, as the air grows more humid during the day, a few isolated showers may occur. The main action is likely to come in 1 or 2 clusters or a possible line of storms tonight which in whatever form it takes will enter western New England as early as sunset, then traverse east and northeast across the southern New England forecast region through around midnight. I must stress here that there may be a large portion of the region that see only showers or a brief garden variety thunderstorm, but the potential exists for some of these thunderstorms to be strong to severe. This will occur on a much more limited basis, so while most do not see severe weather, those that day could see a storm that packs a punch with the potential for damaging winds and hail. Though lightning is not considered when determining whether or not a storm is severe, any thunderstorm produces lightning and any lightning that is of the cloud-to-ground variety is potential dangerous or deadly, so shelter from that should always be found, regardless of the severe weather threat. It would benefit you to stay tuned to local news updates by later today and this evening to see what the details of the event turn out to be. I’ll be updating my WHW Facebook page as well as the comment section below tonight as well. Whatever occurs tonight will settle down overnight and no more than a quick back of showers/storms may visit Nantucket and Cape Cod first thing Saturday morning as clouds depart the remainder of the region, if they have not done so already, and leave the door open for a fabulous Fourth Of July Weekend for the remainder of Saturday, all of Sunday, and the holiday itself on Monday, with dominant sunshine during the day, warmth, and fairly low humidity. Tuesday will see an intensification of the feel of summer, as the heat arrives.
TODAY: Patchy clouds but lots of sun this morning and midday. Increasing clouds and less sun this afternoon. Isolated afternoon showers. Highs upper 70s South Coast, lower to middle 80s elsewhere. Increasingly humid. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mainly cloudy. Isolated showers early. Showers/thunderstorms likely from west to east late evening to midnight, ending overnight. Patchy fog late. Humid. Lows in the 60s. Wind S to SW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts. Strong winds possible near any storms.
SATURDAY: Variably cloudy early with a risk of showers/thunderstorms briefly Nantucket and Cape Cod, then mostly sunny. Less humid. Highs in the 80s, few upper 70s Cape Cod and Islands. Wind W 10-20 MPH and gusty, diminishing later in the day.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows in the 60s, few upper 50s interior valleys. Wind light W.
SUNDAY: Sunny. Highs in the 80s. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Clear. Lows in the 60s. Wind light W.
MONDAY – INDEPENDENCE DAY: Mostly sunny. Highs in the 80s. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the middle 80s to lower 90s.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 6-10)…
Eastward movement of a ridge of high pressure and a lifting of the jet stream to the north allows for fair and hot weather with higher humidity July 6. Disturbances bring a chance of showers/thunderstorms at times July 7-8, not as hot. Low pressure moving through eastern Canada will send slightly cooler air into the region with dry conditions for July 9, before an approaching disturbance returns clouds and a risk of showers to the region by July 10. Timing of these systems is a little uncertain with the jet stream forecast to be nearby, so that as well as details will be fine-tuned with time.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 11-15)…
Warm to hot and mainly dry with limited shower and thunderstorm chances as a ridge of high pressure establishes itself over the southeastern US and pushes the jet stream mostly just north of the region heading for the middle of July.

7:30AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 30-JULY 4)…
One interruption, otherwise a great extended Independence Day Weekend upcoming! The only bump in the road will be a disturbance coming along from the west and combining with a little moisture from the south, bringing some cloudiness and a risk of showers and thunderstorms late Friday to very early Saturday, otherwise high pressure will be in control with fair weather, generally warm conditions, but a lack of high humidity.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs in the 80s. Wind variable to S up to 10 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows in the 60s. Wind S to variable under 10 MPH.

7:44AM

Slight format tweak again today.

DAYS 1-6 (JUNE 28-JULY 4)…
Slow-moving cold front continues to crawl through the region today with lots of clouds, humidity, and episodes of scattered showers and thunderstorms. High pressure moves in Thursday with great weather holds into Friday before the next frontal system brings clouds and a risk of a few showers/storms later Friday to very early Saturday. The rest of the holiday weekend looks fabulous as high pressure regains control.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 9-13)…
Fair weather with near to above normal temperatures overall, but may be a few showers/thunderstorms around by late in the period.

7:31AM

Going to mess with the format slightly here and you’ll see why…

DAYS 1-3 (JUNE 28-30)…
This covers the final 3 days of June, 2 of which will carry unsettled weather as a cold front slowly passes through the region today and Wednesday with a few episodes of showers and thunderstorms. The greatest chance of activity comes first thing today over RI, eastern MA, and southeastern NH, tonight anywhere in the region, and favoring eastern areas Wednesday. Though a few downpours may occur, a widespread beneficial rain is not very likely. High pressure will move in during Thursday and provide some very pleasant summer weather.
TODAY: Mostly cloudy. Showers moving across much of northern RI, eastern MA, and southeastern NH through mid morning and into parts of southern RI and southeastern MA later in the morning.

FRIDAY: Sunshine, late clouds. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 80s.
SATURDAY: Clouds overnight with a risk of shower or thunderstorm, lingering into early morning, then clearing. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 80s.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 80s.
MONDAY – INDEPENDENCE DAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 80s.

DAYS 8-15 (JULY 5-12)…
Transitional pattern during this time with a warm to hot and dry start for the first couple to few days, a risk of showers/thunderstorms mid period with a trough passage, and a shift back to warm to hot conditions by the end of the period as the jet stream lifts a bit to the north and a ridge of high pressure builds in the upper Midwest to Great Lakes.

7:32AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 27-JULY 1)…
High pressure hangs on today with sunshine and warmer air and an increase in humidity as well. A slow-moving cold front will take 2 days to cross the region Tuesday and Wednesday with several opportunities for scattered showers and thunderstorms. Widespread and beneficial rainfall is still unlikely with this frontal passage, however. High pressure pushes in Thursday and Friday with a return to fair weather.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. More humid. Highs from the middle 80s to lower 90s, cooler southern coastal areas.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Humid. Lows in the 60s. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.

FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 2-6)…
Frontal system looks a little faster, early to mid part of July 2, with a few showers and thunderstorms possible, then a return to fair weather which lasts the remainder of the period. temperatures fairly close to seasonal averages.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 7-11)…
Shower and thunderstorm threat returns later July 7 through July 8 with the next disturbance then fair weather returns again. Temperatures near to above normal and watching the possibility of some increased heat.

7:33AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 26-30)…
No shift in overall thinking of how things take place during the final 5 days of June. High pressure dominates with a warming trend and slight increase in humidity through Monday. A slow-moving cold front moves through and gradually weakens Tuesday and Wednesday with a risk of showers and thunderstorms, though the risk of widespread beneficial rain from this is quite low. High pressure pushes in Thursday with a return to fair weather.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs from the upper 70s coastal areas to middle and upper 80s interior locations. Wind S to SW 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows from the upper 50s to middle 60s. Wind light SW.

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 1-5)…
High pressure dominates with fair and warm weather July 1. A frontal boundary will cross the region slowly during July 2-3 with a risk of a few showers and thunderstorms and some humidity. High pressure will bring fair and slighty cooler weather for July 4 then warming up July 5.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 6-10)…
Next frontal system most likely around the middle of the period with a few showers/thunderstorms, otherwise mostly dry weather. Temperatures near to above normal.

1:45AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 25-29)…
High pressure dominates the next 3 days with a warming trend. Dry air will be the rule through much of Sunday, but humidity will increase Sunday night and Monday. By Tuesday and Wednesday, a cold front will move into the region but be slow to pass, so showers and thunderstorms are possible both days.
TODAY: Low clouds near the coast early otherwise mostly sunny. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s, coolest in coastal areas. Wind light E to SE.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows from the upper 50s to middle 60s. Wind light SE to S.

High pressure will bring fair and slightly cooler weather for the very end of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 5-9)…
Mainly dry July 5-6. Risk of showers/thunderstorms at times July 7-9. Temperatures near to above normal.

7:33AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 24-28)…
High pressure dominates the next 4 days with a very gradual warming trend, but higher humidity waiting until Monday to finally move in. A frontal system moves into the region Tuesday with continued warmth and humidity ahead of it, along with a shower/thunderstorm threat.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs from the middle 70s to lower 80s. Wind light N shifting to E.

Mainly dry July 4-6. Risk of showers/thunderstorms at times July 7-8. Temperatures near to above normal.

7:27AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 23-27)…
A low pressure disturbance and weakening complex of thunderstorms will pass south of New England today and we’ll only see some of the high cloudiness from it, which will be a little thicker along the South Coast for a while. High pressure will move in Friday with great weather then settle to the south during the weekend, which will feature a significant warming trend, with the feel of summer heat before it’s over. By Monday, we’ll add some humidity to the mix as well.
TODAY: Sunniest north, less sun south through midday, then mostly sunny all areas later. Highs in the 70s. Wind variable to N 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows in the 50s. Wind N up to 10 MPH.
FRIDAY: Sunny. Highs from the middle 70s to lower 80s. Wind N to variable 5-15 MPH.

MONDAY: Mostly sunny. More humid. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the middle 80s to lower 90s except cooler South Coast.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 28-JULY 2)…
A weakening frontal boundary in the region and an overall warm and humid pattern will allow for a daily risk of isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms with temperatures near to above normal.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 3-7)…
Look for mainly dry and warm to hot weather during this period as a high pressure ridge builds in the region.

3:40AM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 22-26)…
A disturbance passes by later this morning and early this afternoon from west to east and may kick off a few showers and even thunderstorms with a slight risk of small hail. Severe weather is not expected to occur with this passing system, which will be gone by late in the day. A large part of the day will be rain-free and quite nice. The system producing the rain threat for Thursday is largely dependent on the development and movement of a complex of thunderstorms in the Upper Plains to Upper Midwest, and indications are that this initial batch of thunderstorms will move in such a way that the resulting blob of rain will stay largely south of New England as the energy passes by Thursday morning and midday. High pressure will move in Friday with great weather then settle to the south during the weekend, which will feature a significant warming trend, with the feel of summer heat before it’s over.
TODAY: Variably cloudy through mid afternoon with isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms, some with possible small hail, from late morning to mid afternoon, favoring northern MA into NH. More sunshine later in the day. Highs from the middle 70s to lower 80s. Wind W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear evening. Increasing clouds overnight. Lows from the middle 50s to lower 60s. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy morning and midday with a period of rain possible near the South Coast. Increasing sun later in the day. Highs in the 70s. Wind variable to N 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs from the middle 70s to lower 80s.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the middle 50s to lower 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to middle 80s.
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs from the upper 70s to lower 80s South Coast, middle 80s to lower 90s elsewhere.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 27-JULY 1)…
Fair, very warm, and humid June 27. A weakening front is expected to move into the region and slowly dissipate, but cause a daily risk of isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms for the remainder of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 2-6)…
Look for mainly dry and warm to hot weather during this period as a high pressure ridge builds in the region.

3:45PM

DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 21-25)…
Drier air has been moving in today behind a front that woke some of you up with its thunderstorms in the early morning hours. But it has been quite warm during the day today with the core of cooler air hanging back and set to pass through tonight and early Wednesday. However this will come along with another disturbance that may trigger a few instability showers/thunderstorms and even possible small hail in any of these from late morning to mid afternoon Wednesday, with the best chance of such activity in northern MA into NH. A disturbance will make a run at southern New England from the west on Thursday, but at this time I’m leaning toward a more strung out system with most of the heavier rain staying to the south, though some of it may impact parts of the region. Will try to fine-tune this on the next update. Behind that system, high pressure will move in with fair and pleasant weather for Friday and Saturday, though Saturday will begin a warm-up.
REMAINDER OF TODAY: Sunshine and a few clouds. Temperatures upper 70s South Coast, 80s elsewhere. Wind W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows from the middle 50s to lower 60s. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
