DAYS 1-5 (MAY 8-12)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Low pressure well offshore southeast of New England and an upper level disturbance sliding east southeastward across New England today into this evening will provide lots of clouds but very limited rainfall, amounting only to the few showers that can survive into the region from the west or develop in marginally unstable conditions later today into this evening. High pressure moves in and provides nice weather for Sunday – Mother’s Day, but high cloudiness will be streaming in rather quickly during the afternoon ahead of the next area of low pressure. This low is going to be on the weak side and rather quick-moving, with a shot of light rainfall for Sunday night into Monday morning before it departs oceanward. There will still be some upper level energy and cold air aloft hanging around through Tuesday, so lots of clouds may linger Monday even as drier air moves in. The core of upper level cold will be moving across the region during Tuesday. Lots of clouds are expected that day and any sunshine that does occur will just help initiate more cloud development, and possibly lead to a few pop-up rain showers. This, combined with a gusty northwesterly breeze at the surface will make for a rather chilly feel. This will ease a bit Wednesday but with still some cold air aloft we will see additional fair weather cloud development, though likely less extensive as the day before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (MAY 13-17)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
An area of high pressure is expected to bring fair weather for the middle of next week. Not biting on current model solutions of a low pressure area bringing rain about May 14, but leaning toward a weaker system bringing a chance of rain showers around May 15. Fair weather and a potential warm-up after that if high pressure is stronger toward the Middle Atlantic region, which may be the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (MAY 18-22)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There’s a lot of uncertainty in this forecast. It will depend on whether or not the warm-up occurs in the latter portion of the 6-10 day forecast period. If so, there may be a period of unsettled weather as another cool air mass arrives from Canada by the middle or end of the period. Timing and details will be impossible to figure out this far in advance. Just know that there is the potential for some volatility and a more drastic temperature change than I had previously indicated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
