Discussion\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I did not give the current weather system passing through the region nearly enough credit. Not that we are getting a couple days of soaking rainfall, but while yesterday ended up being more productive for rain than I thought, today may do the same, so you’ll notice today’s forecast for today looking a little less sunny and a little more showery than yesterday’s forecast for today. Sometimes in the short-range the weather can be “uncooperative”, just as it more regularly does in medium and certainly longer range attempts to uncover its mysteries. But be that what it is, we go on. So now we have high humidity in place and a frontal boundary that drifted eastward into the region with occasional showers during the overnight hours, and will now only drift eastward across the remainder of the region today as a little wave of low pressure forms on it and moves to the northeast. This means that the partly sunny and humid day that I’d been forecasting is now to be a mostly cloudy day with showers a little more likely and also somewhat earlier in the day than I had been expecting. Another, stronger front comes along from the west tonight though to clear the conglomeration out and push everything off to the east. This will open the door for drier air to move in, though Friday will have the feel of mid summer as the air will be quite warm, even feeling a bit hot. High pressure tracks from the Ohio Valley to south of New England then off the coast during the course of the Labor Day Weekend, and even though a cold front will approach the region later on Labor Day itself, at the moment it looks like all three days will be rain-free, starting out a little cooler Saturday (compared to Friday) before we warm right back up again thereafter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

High pressure centered northeast of New England will bring fair and slightly cooler weather September 8 then the high will shift southward and a southerly air flow will bring warmer and more humid weather in by September 9-10, but September 10 featuring a shower and thunderstorm risk as a cold front moves into the region from the west. High pressure follows this with more fair weather, slightly cooler September 11 and warmer again September 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
