DAYS 1-5 (MAY 10-14)
Low pressure passing to our north will drag a cold front slowly across our area today and tonight. While there are a lot of clouds much of today, it will be generally rain-free until a broken band of showers, and perhaps a thunderstorm, is triggered by the front and moves across the region from west to east from mid afternoon to early evening. The front will slow down over southeastern areas while a wave of low pressure forms on it moving northeastward and passing just offshore overnight / early Monday morning. This will prolong shower chances from eastern CT and RI through southeastern MA during these hours. Monday’s daylight hours will see any showers exit Cape Cod first thing in the morning, with a general clearing trend from west to east. High pressure builds in later Monday through Tuesday with fair weather. The next low pressure system arrives from the west at midweek bringing back abundant cloud cover and a good chance of some wet weather later Wednesday and Thursday, with finer details to-be-determined.
TODAY: Considerable clouds / limited sunshine. A shower and slight chance of a thunderstorm west to east mid afternoon through early evening. Highs 58-65 South Coast, 65-72 elsewhere. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers mainly eastern CT, RI and southeastern MA. Lows 48-55. Wind variable to N up to 10 MPH.
MONDAY: Any early showers exit Cape Cod with clouds thinning for sun west to east. Highs 60-67. Wind NW up to 10 MPH.
MONDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 42-49. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY: Sunny to partly cloudy. Highs 57-64. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Partly to mostly cloudy. Lows 43-50. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of rain in the afternoon. Highs 55-62 occurring by midday then may turn cooler especially coastal areas. Wind variable to E up to 10 MPH.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT / THURSDAY: Cloudy. Chance of rain. Temperatures generally 50-57, coolest coast. Wind N 5-15 MPH.
DAYS 6-10 (MAY 15-19)
Upper level low pressure is expected to be over to just east of the region as part of a larger scale blocking pattern. Drier weather but not absent of shower chances. Temperatures start cool, then moderate later in the period.
DAYS 11-15 (MAY 20-24)
Upper level low pressure departs, replaced by a more west to east flow, up-and-down temperatures including milder to warmer air, and a few shower threats but overall a mostly dry pattern anticipated.
