DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 11-15)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you needed a reminder that technically it’s not summer yet, today will be it. Many areas will sit 20 to 30 degrees cooler than they were just 3 days ago. A low pressure trough will be moving down into New England from Canada, passing through the region later today through early Saturday, bringing with it a couple opportunities for showers, mainly in isolated to scattered form in southern NH to northern MA this afternoon and evening, and a little bit more widespread but not long-lasting early Saturday morning from northwest to southeast across the region before they exit. This will leave the vast majority of Saturday’s hours rain-free, although it will still be on the cool side as high pressure in eastern Canada behind the disturbance will initiate an easterly wind across our region. That high pressure area slides to the southeast and into the Atlantic waters east of New England by Sunday, turning our wind more southerly and warming the region up, but not nearly to the levels we experienced earlier this week. A slight uptick in humidity Sunday will be felt by those most sensitive to it, otherwise it won’t really be that noticeable. Meanwhile a disturbance will be approaching from the west on Sunday, but recent trends in short range guidance have been to slow this system’s arrival, and I believe this to be accurate enough that I am going to keep rain out of the daytime portion of my Sunday forecast and just add a chance of a shower or t-storm at night. This system will take its time passing through so that we see a couple opportunities for showers and possible thunderstorms during Monday, but not looking for a wash-out that day, just an unsettled day. Drier weather should arrive as this system exits to the east by Tuesday based on current expected timing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 16-20)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Overall pattern features a low pressure trough in southeastern Canada and a mostly west-to-east air flow over New England. Temperatures near to slightly below normal but may spike briefly around June 18. A few rounds of showers and thunderstorms may occur with passing disturbances but much of the time will be rain-free. Summer arrives with the solstice late at night on June 20.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 21-25)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first days of summer are expected to feature a pattern similar to the one during the last days of spring, overall west to east flow across the Northeast, with a tendency for a weak low pressure trough keeping significant heat from establishing and sending disturbances along with a couple shower and thunderstorm chances, but mostly dry overall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
