Stratocumulus? What stratocumulus? We’ve finally gotten rid of the low level moisture that, with the help of a couple of disturbances, had caused us abundant cloudiness the last couple of days, and today we get to enjoy a bright late November day as an area of high pressure slides just to the south of New England. While it won’t be warm like that stretch we had earlier in November, it will have a seasonable feel to it but with the lack of wind the air will be quite tolerable, so no more excuses to put off the last of the outside cleanup or putting up holiday decorations. But be warned, if you are putting up decorations vulnerable to strong wind, make sure they are anchored, as they will be tested for their “staying power” later on Monday. Low pressure forming near the western Gulf Coast is going to be propelled rather rapidly northeastward on the eastern side of a developing upper level trough. While we will be on the warm side of this storm system, it’s going to deliver us quite a dose of wet weather and strong southerly wind alter Monday, especially Monday evening. Once we get to Tuesday, the main belt of rainfall and strongest wind will have departed, but it will still be somewhat unsettled with a frontal boundary nearby and the trough to our west. So while a good portion of Tuesday may end up rain-free, I can’t rule out some passing rain showers with a fair amount of clouds crossing the sky, although the air will be mild despite a gusty breeze, which will be from a “mild” direction. We’ll have to wait until midweek, when the upper low shifts into eastern Canada, for some seasonably chilly air to arrive here. But it will do so with dry and breezy weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (DECEMBER 4-8)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cold front moves through the region with a risk of rain showers December 4. Weekend storm threat December 5-6, odds favoring rain coast but rain and\/or snow possible interior depending on the storm track and temperature profile. The track of that storm is highly uncertain. Guidance currently shows a few hundred mile spread in possibilities. Colder with a risk of snow showers December 7-8 behind the departing storm system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (DECEMBER 9-13)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Eyeing the potential for a colder and stormier period of weather in this time frame due to less high pressure in the US Southeast and a temporary disruption of the polar jet stream with indications for a fairly large scale trough of low pressure impacting the central and eastern US, including our region. While it’s too soon to pin-point any specific storm systems and their results, there is also the possibility that this pattern is even slower to evolve and that much of this period can be storm-free.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
