DAYS 1-5 (JULY 27-31)

As we had down the home stretch of July, these final 5 days throw quite a bit of weather at our region. This may be a standard work week for some, and a vacation week for others. If it’s the latter, you’ll unfortunately have to deal with some wet weather and below average temperatures. Step-by-step, here’s how we get there, and how long it may hang around: Today we start out with a fairly nice day as weak high pressure slowly drifts away to our northeast. An offshore low pressure area has helped to bring in enough Atlantic moisture for some scattered to broken stratus cloud cover across southeastern MA, and this will pull out during the day today. Meanwhile, we will start to feel the first effects of a low pressure trough approaching from the west. A disturbance working its way into western New England, combined with a little more moisture moving in from the south, can help trigger a few afternoon and early evening showers and thunderstorms over western New England, and a few of these may get closer to the western reaches of the WHW forecast area – basically the Connecticut Valley. Otherwise, today will be rain-free, and any of those showers and storms that make it that far east will dissipate with the setting sun, which will start to be interrupted by an increase in cloudiness which then continues overnight into Tuesday, a day which will feature increased humidity and shower / thunderstorm chances as low pressure moves through the Great Lakes. Low pressure is set to redevelop with a digging low pressure trough into the Mid Atlantic by Wednesday, and this system is going to bring us a cool and rather wet period of weather Wednesday into Thursday as it slowly wheels through the region. Some beneficial rainfall seems in the cards, but if bands of heavier rain occur, they can result in some flooding issues, so we’ll have to keep an eye on that. I expect the low pressure area to pull away from the region with improving weather Friday, but there can still be a pop-up shower or thunderstorm on the back side of the system with lingering instability.

TODAY: Variably cloudy – least sun southeastern MA this morning and interior areas later in the day with a stray shower or thunderstorm possible late in the day, mainly close to the CT Valley. Highs 76-83, coolest coast. Wind variable to SE up to 10 MPH.

TONIGHT: Partly to mostly cloudy. Lows 60-67. Dew point heads for 60. Wind SE up to 10 MPH.

TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers and thunderstorms, primarily midday and afternoon. Highs 77-84. Dew point surpasses 60. Wind SE to SW 5-15 MPH.

TUESDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Areas of fog. Showers likely. Chance of a thunderstorm. Lows 60-67. Dew point 60+. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.

WEDNESDAY: Cloudy. Rain likely. Highs 67-74. Dew point near 65. Wind E 5-15 MPH, higher gusts near the coast.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Cloudy. Lingering showers and drizzle. Areas of fog. Lows 58-65. Dew point around 60. Wind NE 5-15 MPH.

THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy. Showers likely. Chance of thunderstorms. Highs 68-75. Dew point in 60s. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.

THURSDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers. Areas of fog. Lows 60-67. Dew point 60+. Wind variable to N up to 10 MPH.

FRIDAY: Partly sunny. A pop-up shower or thunderstorm possible. Highs 73-80. Dew point falls under 60. Wind N 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 1-5)

August 1-2 weekend looks mainly dry with high pressure in control. First half of next week can see higher humidity and shower / t-storm chances. Temperatures generally around seasonal averages.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 6-10)

A couple opportunities for showers and t-storms, but overall pattern features more dry than wet time. Temperatures generally seasonable.

  5. Thanks, TK.

    And Philip, thank you for correcting me on what thought I remembered from 1971.

    I do recall seeing a tower there (near Forest Hills station) and eating at a diner close to it. But it wasn’t the current clock tower.

  6. Thank you TK. Currently 56/55.

    And we just made it into the 40s for a second night with a low of 49. The room gets chilly with the window open and I love it

      1. We were 47 for yesterday’s overnight low. Both were crystal clear nights.

        All nws stations near here are showing the same. I monitor these stations carefully with both kestrels. They are close enough that I know where they are. I stopped using my weather system quite a while ago for anything except rain.

  8. Thank you TK!

    Wordle: I will be partying in car 4 with Vicki for today’s trip. Mimosas and brunch begin at 10:00 am for anyone who wants to join us.

  12. Could the incoming troughs be the back breaker for the rest of the summer? Of course we’ll have a few more 90° days. Have we seen our hottest day’s in the rear view mirror?
    86° 77° dewpoint down here in Sarasota.
    Looks like a front made down to the north of Tampa storms up that way.
    If interested I’ll check in later.
    Have a better day everyone.

    1. There’s nothing out there in the long range (CFS weeklies, for example) that suggest any prolonged heat in the longer range.

      We may have more humid days in the mid range, though nothing like what you’ve experienced in Florida.

      But I can see dps in the 60s to occasionally near 70F making some visits in the medium range.

    2. Even without a hot pattern, this is not a summer back-breaker. We have not even reached the halfway point of summer yet – that’s in early August.

    2. Agreed !

      Yesterday was somewhat cool in marshfield. Decent breeze off the ocean and fighting low clouds that eventually took over mid afternoon.

      Bright sun and weaker onshore breeze, feels like it’s in the low-mid 70s, I’m not sure we ever got to 70F yesterday.

    The multiple forest fires in Oregon and southwest Idaho have released a massive amount of smoke the last 2 days.

    This is likely to rinse and repeat the next couple as that area is on the northwest side of a ridge with a weak trof off the northwest us coast, puts them under evacuating SW flow aloft. Let the sun do its thing, adding heat that further lifts the air and these unfortunately should plume up again as the day wears on.

    The rather persistent trof were under is keeping the smoke trajectory from the eastern Great Lakes southeastward into the mid Atlantic, for now. Fairly deep blue skies as I look up, sitting on the deck.

    1. Not able to access it either.

      I was just on it a bit ago.

      I guess we did 🙂 🙂 🙂

  20. On sports radio, I’ll sometimes hear hosts talk about Eric Bieniemy (coach) and Efton Chism (player). The first few times when I heard mentions of these people I thought I heard “Eric the enemy” and “effin [as in f%^&] Chism.

    1. If the trends keep trending the way they are trending, it may not be all that bad a week in the broad picture.

      Tomorrow is most certainly not lost.

      Part of Wednesday may be salvaged.

      Most of Friday will likely be salvaged.

      1. Just looked at new info. Yeah, the trends are still trending the way they’ve been trending.

        This week is NOT going to be that bad when all is said and done. Not perfect, but not terrible.
