DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 1-5)

Welcome to June and Meteorological Summer! While the summer solstice is still just under 3 weeks away the “climate summer” gets underway today. And it won’t really feel much like summer as we have a cool high pressure area centered to the west, and an upper level low pressure trough about to cross the region. This disturbance will help clouds pop up today, some of which will produce showers. It will be breezy and on the cool side as well. The upper low exits tonight and a warm front approaches Tuesday, bringing more cloudiness and eventually a risk of a little light rainfall. This will introduce warmer and slightly more humid air for Wednesday, a day that will be mainly rain-free but still feature the risk of a shower or thunderstorm, especially south of I-90, as a weak cold front moves in late. This front will bring the humidity and temperature down a tick or two for Thursday but the front will also hang in the region and drift back to the north by Friday, a day with lots of clouds but more warmth and humidity, and a risk of a few showers and thunderstorms.

MONDAY: Sun/cloud mix. Risk of passing showers this afternoon. Highs 60-67. Wind NW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.

MONDAY NIGHT: Clearing. Lows 45-52. Wind N 5-15 MPH.

TUESDAY: Increasing clouds. Scattered light rain late. Highs 65-72. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.

TUESDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Risk of rain. Lows 53-60. Wind S up to 10 MPH.

WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy with a risk of showers early morning, then partly sunny. Risk of a late-day shower or thunderstorm. More humid. Highs 73-80. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Risk of a shower early. Lows 53-60. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.

THURSDAY: Partly cloudy. Highs 69-76. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.

THURSDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Lows 60-67. Wind WSW up to 10 MPH.

FRIDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of a few showers and thunderstorms. Humid. Highs 75-82. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 6-10)

A frontal boundary will be in the region on the June 6-7 weekend, likely with this area on the warm/humid side Saturday with a few showers and possible thunderstorms, and on the cooler side Sunday with a few showers. High pressure brings fair weather June 8-9 with a cooler start then warming. Warm front may approach with clouds and showers by June 10.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 11-15)

Leaning toward slightly cooler than average and drier than average during this 5-day period.

  4. Good morning and thank you TK.
    I have mixed feelings about option #1 (2011). I like the presentation
    of the image on the top and the blue lettering. Overall, I do like better
    than the 2010.

    I don’t know about others, but my plan is to make a brief first gut impression
    for each (like above) and then come back and compare them all one after the other
    and give my final choice and the reason(s) for that choice.

  5. Good morning, TK!
    Just posted my comments and they didn’t appear. So, let me try again!

    I think the new page is bright, crisp and clean looking!

    Got a chance to see the ISS last night. My camera experiment with my Canon Rebel failed. I tried to shoot the spaceship at 30 seconds, but I think it was still to bright in the sky. The picture came out, but there’s no ISS. I did get it on my iPhone 11 on the southeastern side of the house.

    Remembering the June 1 Springfield tornado.

    Flooding rains in Guatemala from a storm that may reform in the Gulf!

    Again, I love the new format, TK. Deep thanks for all you do here every day!

  6. Oh, and btw, with this format switching back and forth between
    forecast and covid is rather inconvenient.
    And also, I takes a bit of doing to pull out the poster’s handle from
    the background. It does not stand out.

    1. My Bad. I just noticed that Previous and Next at the top right
      of the page easily allows for toggling back and forth between
      the forecast and covid pages. I spoke prematurely. Sorry.

  7. Thanks TK
    As Captain mentioned 9 years ago today the Springfield Tornado happened. I will never forget watching the tornado on television going across the bridge heading for the downtown area. Everything came together that day for this severe weather event.

  9. Tornadoes in New England don’t normally stay on the ground for that many miles as that tornado did.

  10. not a fan of the chat box like icon (cellphone type box) but that’s just me. Also wish the names of the commenters were a little bigger. I do like the photo on the top though.

  11. Let’s experiment with different formats and see what most people like. It always takes me awhile getting used to new ways so I’m not judging this just yet. Thanks TK.

  12. Thank you, TK.

    I’m not a good layout person so I’ll leave that to others.

    What a refreshing morning weather-wise. Oh, how we’re blessed with this blast of cool and dry air. I’ll take it any day during the summer months. Feel like a different person.

  13. Thanks TK.

    Chilly morning…down to 37 here in Coventry earlier!

    Regarding the new format, I like the font, layout and picture on the main page but agree with Matt….not crazy about the “chat” format of the comments section and the name of the person commenting is too inconspicuous.

  14. That disturbance over the Yucatan has a pretty good circulation and is just about to get over water. The upper levels above it look like there’s somewhat of a high above it, with good ventilation. I wouldn’t be surprised if that entity has some moderate intensification once over water.

  16. I find this new format very confusing I do not like it , just my opinion & definitely no offense TK maybe it’s just me .

    1. I’m going to try about 8 different ones anyway.

      It’s no big deal of people don’t like a particular one or set of them. That’s why I want to get a range of comments.

      I did not design the layouts. They are provided by WordPress.

      So far I don’t really like this one but I’m leaving it up today so everybody gets a chance to see it.

      I will try the next one tomorrow.

  17. I know that sometimes tropical features can interact with mid latitude features and strengthen as a mid latitude storm well past landfall.

    I’m trying to understand what the 12z euro is doing with the land falling Texas tropical system on days 9 and 10. Whatever it’s projecting, it intensifies it well after landfall.

    1. Model bias. It’s just a built-in error (not on purpose) of how it handles the transition of those storms in that environment with the given / expected conditions around it.

    1. Thanks, Longshot !

      I looked at the projected track and got so confused.

      Then, I read the NHC’s discussion and I get that they think the current depression will actually likely track slowly into Mexico, while a potential new circulation develops into where they show the Saturday location. Confusing for sure.

  19. Thanks TK! I will go with a resounding thumbs down on this format, but like the idea of experimenting with them and looking forward to seeing the options!

    Beautiful day out there, yet again. Tropical Depression 3 has formed in the southern Gulf of Mexico.

  20. Haven’t been around in a but. Dealing with a few life issues – but wanted to chime in and say this layout is nice except nobody has profile pics so it looks oddly blank on mobile.

    1. I cannot begin to tell you how happy I am to we you post here. You are in my thoughts daily. Please know WE are family. I sure understand why you don’t want to share but please never hesitate if you feel the need. Or ask TK for my email.
