DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 22-26)

Unsettled weather will be with us early this week. You may not think this statement is accurate if you’re an early riser today, seeing some sunshine, but the clouds are quickly moving in from the west and we’ll lose the sunshine by mid morning to the west and late morning or midday to the east, followed not long after be periodic rainfall in response to the approach of the first of two waves of low pressure. We’ll see the most solid rain area move through this evening, which then breaks into showery patches later at night before a second wave of low pressure solidifies it and prolongs the wet weather in much of the region through midday Tuesday. After this, we’ll see a drying trend develop from northwest to southeast as the system begins to shift offshore. Dry air arrives Tuesday night and high pressure builds in with dry weather for Wednesday. This high will shift northeastward Thursday as low pressure moves into the Great Lakes from the southwest. The low’s warm front will approach our region, increasing the cloud cover by later Thursday, then bringing the chance of some additional rain Thursday night and into Friday morning. Based on current timing, we will enter the warm sector of the low for several hours before its cold front crosses the region later Friday. This set-up indicates a good chance of showers and thunderstorms, however timing, coverage, and intensity of potential storms will have to be determined as we get closer.

TODAY: Sun gives way to overcast west to east. Rain chances increase west to east this afternoon. Highs 71-78, coolest coast. Dew point heads for 60. Wind SE up to 10 MPH.

TONIGHT: Cloudy. Showers likely. Chance of a thunderstorm. Areas of fog. Lows 57-64. Dew point similar to temperature. Wind S up to 10 MPH.

TUESDAY: Mainly cloudy. Episodes of rain with embedded heavier showers and possible thunderstorms, diminishing from northwest to southeast midday on. Highs 68-75. Dew point 60+. Wind variable up to 10 MPH becoming W 5-15 MPH later in the day.

TUESDAY NIGHT: Clearing. Lows 55-62. Dew point falls to near 50. Wind W up to 10 MPH.

WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 76-83, coolest coast. Dew point 50s. Wind variable up to 10 MPH with coastal sea breezes.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Low elevation fog patches. Lows 57-64. Dew point rising slowly through 50s. Wind S up to 10 MPH.

THURSDAY: Sun followed by clouds. Highs 75-82, coolest South Coast. Dew point near 60. Wind S to SE 5-15 MPH.

THURSDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Showers arrive. Areas of fog. Lows 61-68. Dew point 60+. Wind S up to 10 MPH.

FRIDAY: Variably cloudy. Showers and thunderstorms likely. Highs 76-83. Dewpoint in 60s. Wind S to SW 10-20 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 27 – JULY 1)

High pressure builds in with fair weather June 27-28 weekend. Frontal system brings a shower chance June 29 before high pressure returns with fair weather to finish the month of June and start off July. Temperatures generally close to seasonal normals.

DAYS 11-15 (JULY 2-6)

Pattern looks surface high pressure dominant with a northwesterly air flow at upper levels. Overall dry with temperatures near to slightly above normal. A couple disturbances can trigger passing showers and thunderstorms but this would be the exception over the rule.

  5. Wordle 5.

    Had a tough time with this one and ended up adding letters till something took. I still have no idea what my fourth word means.

  6. Predictably, WBZ radio driving hard on ” the days are getting shorter” thing.

    I hope everybody had a great summer because on this first full day of the season, they have all but declared it over! 😉

  7. Good morni g and thank yiu TK

    71 up from 61

    Ocean: 60

    Wordle: in progress. After guess 3 I have the last 3 letters. I have no clue what the word is. Cycled through all combinations for the 1st 2 letters and did not get the word. I Must have typed something wrong. Will systematically cycle through the letters again. I. Doing so the 1st time not a single combination even made sense. So far this is the most difficult word to date for me. Ugh…..

    1. Good luck. I looked at mine again and have no clue what my third OR fourth words mean and yet they were accepted.

      1. Oh yeah!!! A great score. I am still working on it.
        My letter substitution got another word, BUT NOT the wordle word!!!!

        So is a 5 from what I can see!

    1. Still haven’t gotten it.
      After first guess, last letter correct, nothing else.
      2nd guess, valid word with last 3 correct
      3rd guess, Valid word I NEVER heard of before, letter substitution got it, last 3 correct
      4th guess, Valid word, I NEVER HEARD OF before, but letter substituion got it, still last 3 correct.

      Oh just love words like this. Can’t wait until the next one. NOT!!!!!!!!

      I have NO clue. I am totally lost. For those of you who got it in 4 or 5 congratulations. I am destined to fail for sure. I just can’t get back to it right now. I’ll share my screen when done!!!!!

      1. It’s crazy. I also have two words I’ve never heard of. We will have to compare tomorrow. I took a photo of mine cause I’ll never remember them

  12. A longshot.

    First drop of rain inside Boston city limits, 1:45 PM. (I’ll probably be off by an hour or more.)

  14. Thanks TK!

    While there will probably be some localized “losers”, the next 36-48 hours look like a pretty solid rain event for most of SNE. A drought denter, and with multiple potential follow-up events over the next 2 weeks. Good news.

    1. Somewhat of a dent but the D2 (severe) drought areas will take a while to go away. The follow up events will certainly help some. Hopefully the reservoirs will get more than their fair share.

      1. Oh for sure, I continue to think it’ll be tough to bust the longer term deficits without a tropical/remnant type event. But hopefully things will at least be stabilized for awhile.

    2. Hopefully not the best weekend of summer the 4th , it’s a 3 day weekend this year for most .

  15. OK, the results are in. I finally had a chance to complete my letter substitution. I got wordle in 5. Earned a sea of green badge.
    It says the 28th time. Oh well.

    3 of my guesses, including the final one were words I never heard of before.

    Having trouble with retrieving screenshot

        1. Thank you. With this word, I was pleased to get it in 5, but I have to say I probably spent in total nearly an hour on it. I tried not to do anything foolishly.

    1. I first noticed about 1:45 or so. Sorry, wasn’t really looking to see the 1st drops. just wanting to know when to shut the windows. 🙂

      1. Yay Longshot. You hit it on the nose

        We have had steady light rain for a bit. So light there is 0.03 in the bucket. But better than a downpour

  17. The “new” WMEX radio 101.1 FM is now on the air with Oldies 24/7 in Boston. No more fading out after sunset. I accidentally discovered it yesterday surfing channels. It’s great! 🙂

    The station also has their own meteorologists working various shifts throughout the day and overnight. The one I heard last night I think was a Rob Burton, whoever he is. 🙂

    The station is crystal clear all the time regardless of where I place my radio in my apartment. I love it! 🙂

    So far, I would say the Oldies are from the 1950s, 60s, 70s and some 80s but most are the typical ones from our “youth” (50s through 70s). 😉

        2. I my first cars, I did not have FM, so WMEX was the go to station on AM!! However, I managed to purchase an FM converter and then only listened to WBCN which at the time was the MOST AWESOME radio station on Planet Earth!!!

          1. I had am or fm on my transistor. But WMEX was far better than wbz so we all opted for fm

    2. IHeart and amazon radio don’t seem to have it. I can get on my devices but need to figure how to stream to my music system.

  18. Thanks, TK.

    I apologize for not being on the blog much these days.

    The situation at home is still status quo. Hoping for improvement soon.

    1. Thank you for popping in. And please don’t apologize. Prayers and positive thoughts continue to head your way

  23. FIFA weather delay in Philly.

    Halftime between France and Iraq and severe thunderstorms approaching so match is delayed.

    1. The 8 pm match is in New Jersey. There may be delays in that one as well.

    1. When all is said and done, I hope we all get that “widespread” 1-2”. I’m getting sick of looking at that Drought Monitor map with all those “fall” colors. A lot good all that winter snow did along the I-95 corridor of up to 30+ inches in some locals south of Boston.

      JR showed a map that has the I-95 corridor as the driest area over the past few months. Much of NNE has been above normal levels with normal central & western SNE. Go figure.

      1. One event is unlikely to be a drought buster. Also there is a lag effect between the arrival of precipitation and when drought areas show improvement. The movement of water (hydrology) is complicated.

      2. This event is not going to make those colors go away. It never ends on one event. We need regular rains over a period of time, not one solid event.

  25. Hey folks, any thoughts on timing in the AM of when the rain ends? Thx hope everyone is doing well!

  26. Only 0.32” in the bucket with a sparse radar. Will it fill in some overnight or is the rest hit or miss showers?

  28. Nice dose of rain today here in Coventry with 0.92” in the rain gauge. Looks like more showers and storms building to the southwest over Northern NJ and the NYC area so should hopefully add to that overnight and tomorrow am.

  29. Quite a cluster of storms firing up along the south coast. I imagine these will get stronger and more widespread with sun rising . Flood warning for this area.

  31. Have picked up 1.25 inches in one hour and 2.06 for storm. This feels like a good power wash to rid us of all the pollen that has accumulated.
