But only now since it&#8217;s November, instead of a pleasant ocean breeze taking the edge off summer heat, we&#8217;ll have a cool and increasingly raw east wind today with a lot of low level clouds coming from the ocean and spreading inland, while above that high and mid level clouds advance ahead of an approaching warm front. While the relatively mild air of the previous two days will be gone, we will still stay dry through the daylight hours today, but the aforementioned warm front will be the trigger for some rainfall tonight. This front, as previously discussed, may  never completely make it all the way through the region before a cold front from the west comes across the area around the middle of the day Monday as low pressure tracks eastward to our north. This set-up is one for a wide spread in temperature across the region as the wettest weather is taking place during Monday morning, after which a stronger westerly wind will arrive and we&#8217;ll dry out from west to east, and all areas will start a quick drop in temperature as a cold air mass arrives from Canada Monday night as it clears out, and Tuesday, which will be a windy, dry, bright, but below normal temperature day. But that will also be short-lived as the high pressure that delivers the cold will make a quick trip eastward and we&#8217;ll already be on its back side by Wednesday. But instead of a nice milder day, Wednesday will feature a lot of cloudiness as we get an increase in moisture ahead of the next low pressure system, set to bring wet weather to the region by Wednesday night and into Thanksgiving. With Thanksgiving at day 5, there&#8217;s still some uncertainty on how quickly that system gets out of here. Some guidance has taken it quickly out of the region early in the day for clearing, while other guidance keeps it around. However, the guidance that had been displaying the faster timing is showing me signs of finding the trough that would at least keep cloudiness in the region for the balance of the day even if we saw the wet weather end, so at this time I am leaning toward just an overcast day with greatest rain chances in the morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Details\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TODAY: Mostly cloudy eastern areas with partial sun mostly interior MA, RI, eastern CT, and southwestern NH before all areas are cloudy by afternoon. Highs 45-52. Wind E 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TONIGHT: Cloudy. Periods of rain and drizzle. Areas of fog. Lows 42-49. Wind E to SE 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MONDAY: Cloudy with rain showers likely through early afternoon. Areas of fog and drizzle in the morning mainly Merrimack Valley into southern NH. Breaking clouds later in the day. Highs 48-55, coolest southern NH and northeastern MA. Wind SE 5-15 MPH in southern NH and northeastern MA, SW 5-15 MPH elsewhere, shifting to W and increasing to 10-20 MPH with higher gusts all areas by late day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MONDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 27-34. Wind NW 10-20 MPH and gusty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 37-44. Wind NW 10-20 MPH and gusty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TUESDAY NIGHT: Clear. Lows 20-27. Wind N under 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WEDNESDAY: Early sun, then becoming cloudy. Highs 46-53. Wind SE 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Cloudy. Rain arriving late evening or overnight. Temperatures steady 46-53. Wind SE to S 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THURSDAY (THANKSGIVING): Cloudy. Rain likely in the morning. Chance of a few lingering showers or some drizzle in the afternoon. Temperatures steady 46-53. Wind SE to E 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DAYS 6-10 (NOVEMBER 27 &#8211; DECEMBER 1)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently expecting mostly dry and milder weather for November 27 &amp; 28 as high pressure moves in but without tapping cold air from Canada. Next low pressure area may bring wet weather to the area in the November 29-30 time frame but the exact timing of this is highly uncertain. Drier\/colder weather is possible as December arrives to end this period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DAYS 11-15 (DECEMBER 2-6)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Highly uncertain outlook with many questions to be answered about the pattern&#8217;s evolution, but the scenario I feel is most likely looking at it this far in advance is for dry but seasonably chilly weather early in the period, briefly milder and still dry mid period, and a possible flip to colder with a storm threat at the end of the period, although we may be very near a boundary of warmth to the south with much colder air to the north, so that would set-up a vast range of how the weather could turn out here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DAYS 1-5 (NOVEMBER 22-26) Discussion\u2026 High pressure centered north of New England will slide off to the east and south as so many have done since the summer.
