DAYS 1-5 (NOVEMBER 12-16)

A low pressure area with 2 centers will impact our region through Friday. The eastern central which is a secondary development will move east and north and be responsible for rainfall in the early part of the event while the primary (original) low will be pulled south and east (the previously-mentioned dumbbell pivot) and will be responsible for the lingering rain and potential higher elevation mix / wet snow into Friday, though it looks like a drying trend will become established from north to south during Friday other than where a northeast wind brings additional low level moisture in off the Atlantic in eastern locations. This system will not be a heavy precipitation producer and will not be responsible for any notable flooding or coastal issues. The storm does re-organize and intensity once it’s east of our region on Saturday, then moving into Atlantic Canada during Sunday. This means a breezy, chilly, but dry weekend for our area with lots of clouds Saturday and a bit more sun Sunday. High pressure builds in with abundant sunshine expected by Monday.

TODAY: Mostly cloudy. A bit of light rain possible this morning in north central MA and southern NH. Chance of rain increase south and west of Boston afternoon. Highs 48-55. Wind E 5-15 MPH.

TONIGHT: Overcast. Rain likely – can mix with wet snow toward dawn in higher elevations of southwestern NH and central MA. Lows 35-42. Wind NE 10-20 MPH, higher gusts especially along the coast.

FRIDAY: Overcast. Rain (some wet snow higher elevations southwestern NH & central MA to possibly far northeastern CT and northwestern RI) tapering off north to south with lingering drizzle southeastern NH, eastern MA, & RI. Highs 40-47. Wind NE 10-20 MPH, higher gusts especially coastal areas.

FRIDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Lows 33-40. Wind N 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.

SATURDAY: More clouds than sun. Highs 45-52. Wind N 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.

SATURDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Lows 33-40. Wind NW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.

DAYS 6-10 (NOVEMBER 17-21)

High pressure dominates much of next week with fair weather. A frontal boundary may move through toward the end of the period but looks like it will be lacking in moisture. Temperatures near to above normal.

DAYS 11-15 (NOVEMBER 22-26)

High pressure dominates again early in the period with fair weather. A storm system in the Midwest to Great Lakes and high pressure moving off the coast set up a wet weather potential heading toward the Thanksgiving period (November 24-26), but it’s far too soon to pin down timing and details.
