DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 4-8)
A flattening of the upper level flow due to a weakening of the blocking pattern that has been in place, along with surface high pressure to our south, allows for fair and much warmer weather today, Friday, and pretty much for the entire region during the daylight hours of Saturday as well. On Saturday, however, higher humidity combined with the approach of a frontal boundary from the northwest will open the door for the potential for an isolated shower or thunderstorm well west and/or north of Boston by late in the day. The shower threat becomes more likely by later Saturday night and especially Sunday as a cold front slowly crosses the region and we also get a trough moving through the region, inducing a weak wave of low pressure along the front. So Sunday’s profile is unsettled and turning cooler, making Saturday the easy weekend pick for outdoor activities. By Monday, the disturbance has exited and the frontal boundary is pulled offshore with cooler and drier air being delivered by high pressure in eastern Canada.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 75-82 South Coast, 83-90 elsewhere but can turn cooler near the shoreline. Wind W to SW up to 10 MPH with coastal sea breezes possible.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 56-63. Wind variable to SW up to 10 MPH.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 77-84 South Coast, 85-92 elsewhere but can turn cooler near the shoreline. Wind W to SW up to 10 MPH with coastal sea breeze possible.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Fog patches overnight. Lows 58-65. Wind SW up to 10 MPH.
SATURDAY: Partly cloudy. Slight chance of an isolated shower or thunderstorm well north and west of Boston by late-day. Highs 86-93 except 78-85 South Coast. Dew point 60+. Wind SW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. An isolated shower or thunderstorm possible in the evening. Showers and patchy fog overnight. Lows 61-68. Dew point 60+. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.
SUNDAY: Mainly cloudy. Showers likely. Highs 71-78. Dew point 60+. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Mainly cloudy. Showers end. Patchy fog. Lows 52-59. Dew point falls through 50s. Wind N to NE up to 10 MPH.
MONDAY: Increasing sun. Highs 62-69. Wind NE 5-15 MPH.
DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 9-13)
Omega block configuration returns, but weaker than the previous version and also displaced further east, with our region between a further-offshore trough and a ridge in the Midwest and Great Lakes. This allows for a quicker warm-up heading into the middle of next week and only a minor unsettled weather threat later in the week as a weakening disturbance approaches the region from the west.
DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 14-18)
More shifting of the upper pattern as upper level low pressure sinks to the south off the Mid Atlantic Coast and high pressure shifts from the Great Lakes toward the Northeast while a trough settles into the Midwest / Plains. This pattern indicates near to above normal temperatures and slightly better shower and t-storm chances, but is still a fairly dry pattern overall for our region.
Thank you, TK.
Thanks TK.
Good morning and thank you TK
64 up from 58
Ocean: 54
WORDLE: 5
So many choices. Thought I had it in 2,3, and 4 before getting it in 5.
If Loga ‘s temperature doesn’t get knocked back by a sea breeze. I supposec it is possible to get an official heat wave. Probably won’t happen, but is possible. Logan likely mid to upper 80s today andvtomorrow, but likely90+ on Saturday.
Nice on Wordle and same experience starting at guess 3
Great 5!!!
Thanks TK !

Wordle 4
Excellent
Superb also, Vicki !
Superb !
Thank you, TK. We are up to 70 from a low of 51. 57 DP
Logan is at 75 with West wind at 5 mph. as it stands now, it sure looks like Logan is destined for a sea breeze. We shall see.
Logan is up to 77, BUT with a WEST wind at a mere 3 mph.
Won’t be much longer now, UNLESS that West wind freshens.
Fitchburg is up to 81. If any place makes 90 today, this would be a good candidate. Time will tell.
74 here. A number of 80s popping up well east of me
Thanks TK! What a nice weather streak – and the Knicks win last night! June now heading in the right direction
Logan is still at 79 BUT has switched to a light SE seabreeze.
I don’t see any 90 degree reading at Logan, UNLESS we get the dramatic 5PM shift to West wind. 🙂
80 here.
81 here and 81 at the airport with ESE wind at 8 mph
