DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 13-17)

Here’s your better late than never update from WHW on this Friday the 13th! Well, we’re about to have a little weather good luck, and something I was anticipating. And that is, having most of our weekend spared of wet weather. Before I get to that, today will be a day governed by high pressure but also by a lot of cloud cover and occasional sun as mid level moisture streams along on a west northwest flow aloft. High pressure will situate itself in southeastern Canada and hold into and through the weekend. It gives just enough ground so that low pressure passing to our south off the Mid Atlantic Coast will produce some wet weather in our region during the first approximately 12 hours of Saturday. Don’t take that too literally though. Start time, end time, length of rainfall – all TBD by location. General idea is a broken band of mid level convective showers will be initiated around or shortly after midnight oriented west-to-east somewhere in the vicinity of I-90, maybe a bit south or a bit north. This slides eastward and blossoms into a more general rain area over the region that will already be in the process of ending from northwest to southeast a couple hours after sunrise, so that by midday it’s a done deal pretty much everywhere, other than potentially lingering right on the South Coast a little longer into afternoon before departing. After this the high pressure area to our northeast is going to be strong enough to give us rain-free weather for the remainder of the weekend, with limited sunshine possible as we move through Saturday afternoon and some partial sun as well on Sunday. Previously, I had a shower / drizzle threat in Sunday’s forecast which I feel safe removing. The trade off to this is having cooler than average temperatures since our dry air is coming from high pressure where it is with an air flow off the Atlantic. Monday, that high will slip southward and our air flow will begin a shift to more southerly. You won’t notice it much at first, but a subtle warm-up will begin, although still with a lot of cloud cover in the sky. I do think we do escape any threat of rain on Monday too. Tuesday’s weather does look a little more unsettled as a more established southerly flow is present and a warm front moves into the region, presenting the chance of showers and thunderstorms – details TBD as we get closer to that.

TODAY: Cloud / sun mix with emphasis on the clouds. Some high altitude smoke above that. Highs 73-80, coolest coast. Wind N under 10 MPH with developing coastal sea breezes.

TONIGHT: Becoming cloudy. Showers develop late evening / overnight then steadier rain toward dawn. Lows 53-60. Wind NE up to 10 MPH.

SATURDAY: Cloudy start with rain ending northwest to southeast in the morning. Lots of clouds / breaks of sun afternoon with some lingering showers possible South Coast. Highs 64-71, coolest coast. Wind NE to E 5-15 MPH.

SATURDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Lows 53-60. Wind E up to 10 MPH.

SUNDAY: Mostly cloudy to partly sunny. Isolated to scattered showers possible. Highs 65-72, coolest coastal areas. Wind E up to 10 MPH.

SUNDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Lows 53-60. Wind SE up to 10 MPH.

MONDAY: Mostly cloudy. Highs 62-69. Wind S up to 10 MPH.

MONDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Lows 55-62. Wind S up to 10 MPH.

TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers and thunderstorms. Highs 67-74. Wind S 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 18-22)

This 5 day period features the final days of spring and first days of summer, as the solstice occurs at 10:54 p.m. on June 20! What will the weather do for the change of seasons? Well, I think it will act fairly appropriately. A warmer, more humid southwesterly air flow with a few shower and thunderstorm chances will be with us for midweek (June 18-19). Right now I think a frontal boundary can bring a heavier batch of showers and storms through at some point June 20, followed by a warm and mainly dry June 21-22 weekend.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 23-27)

Overall pattern features west northwest flow here and a series of fronts / disturbances, which can bring a few showers and thunderstorms. Most of the time though – rain-free. Temperatures near to slightly above normal.

  1. A pretty fab Friday underway!
    Initially we had a pretty thick blanket of clouds (mid level lift) over northern and eastern MA, which has thinned out now. This is part of the “sun/cloud” mix that I indicated for today. My discussion yesterday mentioned there would be more high and mid level cloud cover in the sky today compared to the last 2 days. Well, there you have it. But we’ll see our share of sun too.

    Air is comfy! A light (generally) northerly breeze. Coastal sea breeze should develop by noon or shortly after. Dew points sitting in the upper 40s to lower 50s. Pretty nice for mid June!

  8. The air feels so nice right now. I want to take a deep breath, but that will just trigger my cough.. 😉

    Slow & easy ones…

    Doctor at 4:30PM.

  12. We have struggled up to 69 and a bit more. Briefly made it to at least 69.5

    Very slow warm up today.

          1. From this afar, it appears a small piece of western US heat breaks and off and makes a 24=48 hr run at the northeast.

            If this pattern continues, then how hot we get will depend on cold front passage time and/or cloud debris from previous convection.

            But the potential seems there for a scorcha if 20-22C (850 mb) temps pass overhead.

    1. Only basin that’s been active. Ironically last year they had their latest named storm on record (July 4).

      NW Pacific latest start since 1984.

      Dead quiet Atlantic.

  16. Thank you, TK. I hope you’re getting some rest (and relief from the cough) while you await the appointment.

      1. You inspired me to go back and play after a few months hiatus – got it in 3 today. My most frequent is 4 guesses, followed by 3

        2. yiur wirdle resukts pretty damn good. Curious to know what your starting word was.

        3. You’re WORDLE results were excellent!!!

          Curious to know what you used for the 1st word?

          thanks

            1. Thanks. I started with bread. not so helpful. I i got the B in correct position and the E out of position. Something, but I’m still new to this.

      3. Oh – now I see. Doh!

        You’re talking about a different game than I am.

        🙂 🙂

  19. Hope you’re feeling better soon, TK, and that the doctor has prescribed a good cough suppressant for you! I have one request – in summers past, I feel like you’ve included the DP in your daily forecasts. Will you be adding them again this summer? I find it incredibly helpful. Thank you 🙂

  20. Thinking of you also TK and hoping your appointment gave you both answers and a positive treatment

  22. It is a perfect night to sit on the deck. The Beach Boys on the Roam were accompanied by the very loud hoot of a barred owl. Doesn’t get better than that.

  23. JP Dave, there’s an extra letter in your email address, causing your messages to go into moderation. I fixed it for now, but I have a feeling it may happen again. Double check it when you can. 🙂

  24. Disappointed in many media, yet again (gee what a surprise).

    “First Ever Heat Advisory Issued For Alaska” .. made to sound like something happening there that has never happened before. Wrong. High temp breaking 85 at Fairbanks is most certainly above normal for mid June, but that’s not even the point.

    The point is, it was written in NWS guidelines that heat advisories were not part of Alaska weather statements, which I don’t get, considering how many times they’ve been over 90 in Fairbanks in the past.

    Recently an ADMINISTRATIVE change was made to allow them to be issued, so they issued one for the upper 80s this week. Headlines were clearly written for dramatic affect and clicks / shares. Although I will give kudos to a few outlets that did point out this was more adminstrative-related than weather-related.

    In case you’re curious, Fairbanks has reached or exceeded 90 degrees on 46 occasions since records began there.

    Fully responsible media would include that information in their story about the brutally hot upper 80s and the first heat advisory EVER. 😉

    Baked Alaska, anyone? 😉

    1. Agreed !!

      I also saw what you stated that the NWS would be issuing heat advisories in Alaska, when appropriate, going forward.

      Disappointed too that, this context was not provided within the story.

      1. And for me, this is frustrating, because I do believe that in the micro second context of time, over the last hundred years or so, the earth has and continues to slowly warm, but even making that opinion faces pushback because of stuff like mentioned above.

  25. Working on the update…

    I actually slept more than 2 hours at a stretch!
    I have a long way to go, but the meds are already starting to work…
