DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 13-17)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Low pressure to our east drifts away today but we’ll still be in a northeasterly air flow behind it with a gusty breeze at times. A weak ridge of high pressure moves over the region Wednesday which will be a decent day with less wind and feeling a bit milder than today will. The next low pressure system approaches from the southwest later Thursday and likely has a more significant impact on our area than the last few have. This is good news, as it looks like it may deliver a batch of significant and beneficial precipitation, mostly in the form of rain. But, the air above us is going to be quite cold for mid April and we may see some mix\/snow in higher elevations of interior southern New England. There is some chance that flakes occur even at lower elevations close to the coast if the set-up is just right. It’s hard to forecast such an occurrence more than a couple days in advance, so it will have to be monitored. This system should be slowly pulling away from the region by Saturday, which will likely be a blustery and cool spring day with limited sun, and may even start wet in some areas, depending on how fast the storm system exits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 23-27)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Next wet weather threat times for the middle of this period which should feature a more zonal (west to east) pattern. Still have to keep this a vague, low confidence forecast at this time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
