DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 26-30)

This 5-day run takes us to the start of the Labor Day Weekend. We’ll have a drier, cooler air mass in place into midweek, but an upper low crossing the Northeast with colder air aloft allows diurnal cloud development today, so the sunny start will become a sun / cloud mix. Any showers that pop up today will do so in the mountains, north of our area. A trough passing through tonight brings a few more clouds and perhaps a quick-passing shower. Another will help tomorrow’s diurnal clouds grow enough to perhaps produce a few more showers later in the day. High pressure nosing in from the southwest means fewer clouds and no shower chance for Thursday, but another disturbance swings through on Friday with another shot at showers, and potential thunderstorms in a more unstable atmosphere. The bulk of this will be out of our way by the time we get to Saturday, but upper low pressure lingers so expect a sun / cloud mix and a slight chance of a passing shower – though most areas likely remain dry.

TODAY: Sunny morning. Sun / cloud mix afternoon. Highs 72-79. Wind W 5-15 MPH.

TONIGHT: Variably cloudy. A passing shower possible. Lows 55-62. Wind W 5-15 MPH.

WEDNESDAY: Sun/cloud mix. A passing shower possible in the afternoon, favoring areas north of I-90. Highs 71-78. Wind W to NW 5-15 MPH.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Clearing. Lows 52-59. Wind NW to W up to 10 MPH.

THURSDAY: Mostly sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 72-79. Wind W up to 10 MPH.

THURSDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 55-62. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.

FRIDAY: Variably cloudy. Showers likely with a chance of thunderstorms. Highs 71-78. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.

FRIDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Chance of showers, possibly a thunderstorm. Patchy fog. Lows 58-65. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.

SATURDAY: Partly sunny. Chance of a shower. Highs 70-77. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 31 – SEPTEMBER 4)

Upper level low pressure departs and high pressure builds in with fair weather for the balance of Labor Day Weekend (August 31 / September 1). Watching a disturbance go by that probably stays offshore while our weather continues fair and turns slightly warmer through the middle of next week.

DAYS 11-15 (SEPTEMBER 5-9)

A front brings a shower chance early in the period then a return to fair weather. Temperatures near to slightly below normal.

  8. I agree with Mr Pann. The best way to combat false weather posts, IMO is to not open or comment but to block.

    From Tony Pann

    “Tip for all of you weather trolls on social media: If someone is monetizing social media (I’m not, btw), and you post a comment saying “you are fearmongering for clickbait!”, you have just made that person more money. Just a FYI. You may continue scrolling and trolling…”

    1. Wordle can take a flying leap!!
      Another FAIL. 5 out of the last 6!! I have no more words to say!

      1. So sorry. You may have heard me saying (in questionable language) the same this am. You’ll get there.

    2. I got it in 4 today.

      Yesterday I tried a new-to-me word out of desperation. It looks like a typo of “music.”

      mutic
      adjective
      mu·​tic ˈmyütik
      : lacking the usually defensive parts (as teeth or claws)

      Try using that in casual conversation today 🙂

      1. Good grief.

        I did something similar yesterday. I was entering letters and didn’t expect this one to take. It did. Maybe we can combine the two in a sentence. A thrip cannot be considered a mytic??

        thrips
        /THrips/
        noun
        noun: thrip
        a minute black winged insect that sucks plant sap and can be a serious pest of ornamental and food plants when present in large numbers.

      1. I see one red leaf on my very healthy, Very full front yard tree. It’s a bit early. I’ll have to ask if horses winter coats are starting to show

  13. I have not had to run my AC since August 17th. I am hoping the next time I have to run the AC is June 2026.

    1. We have but much less. Im fine on first floor but second gets hot. Im hoping the same too.

    1. My swiftie grandson has been celebrating all day. I love that this is being celebrated worldwide. It is incredibly special to have good news and smiles for a change

      The haters of course exist and my block list has at least doubled today. I’ll never understand hate for something special. The woman is quite amazing on so many levels

        1. She’d be hard to Match when it comes to giving back. But Travis does a tremendous amount for at risk youths alone …into the millions.

    3. I have nothing against either of them (except him when he plays against my team haha). Best of luck. Haters need a better hobby. 🙂

  15. Other than Cape Cod, which surrounded by water was more stable, a solid sun/cloud mix, as expected, during the afternoon hours today.

    Similar tomorrow, but this time there is a much better chance at a batch or 2 of pop up showers – most activity between 2 p.m. & 5 p.m. and favoring areas to the north of I-90.

    Before that happens, I cannot rule out a passing late night / early morning shower (between midnight and dawn).

    Noticed NWS was still carrying today as “sunny” for my point forecast on the afternoon update, and I’m perplexed, because the discussion mentioned diurnal cumulus. But oh well. As Harvey once said: “I can only worry about the best forecast that I can make, and only control the things that I can control.” 🙂

    1. A mid latitude system possibly evolving into something subtropical. We sure could use a region wide rain storm.

  18. I’m not very trusting of the regular Euro … far too much inconsistency this week.

    Op run has a low coming right up with a soaker on Sep 2. It has it, then it doesn’t, then it does, then it doesn’t, then it does, then it doesn’t.

    EPS mean is way offshore. I will continue to lean toward a dry scenario but monitor.

      1. And that model has been doing a pretty decent job, which I also factored into my thoughts when leaning dry here.

        Still doing it on the new update too!
