DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 22-26)
An evolving blocking pattern – high pressure in Greenland, low pressure from Atlantic Canada to the waters east of New England – governs our weather through the coming weekend. Today, a disturbance moves into the region, producing lots of clouds and very limited rainfall as it is stretched and deflected southeastward, eventually to join the upper low to our east. That circulation will retrograde westward enough to bring a diurnal shower chance to eastern areas Thursday before ensuring drier Friday through the weekend. The next approaching low pressure area is deflected even further southwest of our region between late Saturday and early Sunday. All we’ll see of it is some varying amounts of cloud cover. Temperatures will run below the seasonal averages for this time of year throughout this forecast period.
TODAY: Mostly cloudy. Spotty light rain. Highs 46-53. Wind variable to E up to 10 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Lows 37-44. Wind E up to 10 MPH.
THURSDAY: Variably cloudy. Isolated to scattered showers – mainly NH Seacoast to eastern MA to RI – which can be mixed with small hail or graupel. Highs 56-63. Wind N 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 37-44. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 52-59. Wind N 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 35-42. Wind N 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY: Variably cloudy. Highs 51-58. Wind N 10-20 MPH.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Lows 37-44. Wind N 5-15 MPH.
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy. Highs 53-60. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 27 – MAY 1)
Blocking pattern continues but major features shift eastward, which allows moderating temperatures and continued dry weather early to mid period before wet weather chances increase later in the period as another low approaches from the west.
DAYS 11-15 (MAY 2-6)
Blocking re-establishes with upper level low pressure over the region, which is a cool and unsettled pattern if it sets up as expected.
Good morning and thank yiu TK

WORDLE: 5

Not a spoiler
https://ibb.co/VYtMDXs2
Certainly experienced that
❤️
UGH!!!! I had a similar experience. After Wordle NOT liking my 3rd and 4th words, I finally got it on guess 5.
Come to car 4 anyway !
It was a tough one to swallow but always fun.
Exact same fail! Had 4 one letter guesses but didn’t pick the right one…
Thank you TK!
Wordle: 2 ( a VERY lucky guess I may add)
Wow – I got it in 2 also!
The first guess gave me three letters in the correct position, including the second letter. The second letter was a key to have, as Vicki unfortunately saw. 🙂
Superb Sue and SClarke !
Wow!!! VERY WELL DONE!!!!
Wow. Outstanding 2s.
Thanks Tk
44 here now.
61F with a DP of 45F here, currently.
Gusty SW winds and they have special weather statements out for fire danger from 11am – 5pm.
All I know is, when we drive by farms where tractors were doing work in Maryland and VA and when anyone drives by on the campground, large amounts of dust follow in their wake, so, I’m pretty sure they are longer term dry down here.
Thank you TK
Up to 42 from 32
So last summer I think it was Wx Watcher who brought up the earthquake off the coast of Russia that led to a brief but sharp warm up of Pacific Ocean temps that would affect jet stream. This led to record low dew points in Southern US and zero tropical activity in Gulf. It feels like that pattern continues – yesterday I was golfing on Fort Myers in 35 percent humidity and strong gusty NE winds. First time I didn’t sweat on a Florida golf course in the sun. Any thoughts on the extent of this pattern continuing?
The earthquake and its affect on the weather are above my pay grade 🙂
Right now, low humidity extends to the Deep South due to a blocky pattern which has sent a cool, much drier airmass, compared to a couple weeks ago with momentum all the way into Florida.
Glad it’s made for warm, but comfortable golfing weather in FL.
Vicki, I hope the hand surgery went smoothly yesterday.
It’s a heat wave as we are up to 46 here. Break out the beach chairs!!
