DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 12-16)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The main axis for firing showers and thunderstorms associated with an approaching cold front is further southeast than I had expected, and makes today’s main threat for isolated to scattered showers\/storms from the I-95 belt southeastward, mainly south of I-90 as the heat and humidity hang on. Thursday is transition day to somewhat drier air, but once again it’s to be an indirect delivery of Canadian air by way of the waters of the warm northwestern Atlantic. Although this air’s origin was a little cooler than recent shots of Canadian air so you will notice it being somewhat cooler this time around for Friday and into the weekend before a little moderation is already felt on Sunday. This will be due to high pressure, which should be strong enough to keep unsettled weather to the south, slips off to the east and the wind already starts to go more southerly by late in the weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TODAY: Partly sunny. Isolated showers and thunderstorms, most likely over southeastern MA and RI during the afternoon. Humid. Highs 86-93, coolest South Coast. Wind SW 5-15 MPH but can be variable and gusty near any storms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Patchy fog in low lying areas. Humid. Lows 65-72. Wind W up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
THURSDAY: Variably cloudy. Less humid. Highs 78-85, coolest eastern coastal areas. Wind variable to E up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
THURSDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Lows 58-65. Wind E under 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
FRIDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 76-83, coolest coastal areas. Wind E 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
FRIDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 58-65. Wind E up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SATURDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 76-83, coolest coast. Wind E 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SATURDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 58-65. Wind SE up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SUNDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 77-84, coolest coast. Wind S up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 17-21)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Humidity increases and a low pressure disturbance brings a shower risk August 17. A cold front brings a risk of showers\/thunderstorms August 18. Generally fair weather under high pressure August 19-21.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 22-26)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
High pressure will be the main controller with mostly dry weather and temperatures running above seasonal averages at least to start this period. More humidity and a higher shower risk may arrive before the end of the period.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
