DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 26-30)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Classic summertime in New England pattern over the next five days….. During the weekend we climb the ladder into the heat and humidity. Saturday starts out on the cloudy side with both low level moisture producing low cloudiness and higher level moisture and warming air producing a lot of high cloudiness above that, but the limited or no sun start will progress to partial sun as the day goes on, though South Coast areas may never really break out into much if any sun at all during the day. Cloudiness of both high and low but especially the low variety dominates again tonight. When we get to Sunday, the ability to break those clouds up improves and the amount of high cloudiness coming across the sky from the west will also lessen. Net result: More sunshine Sunday than Saturday. Also, Sunday’s heat and humidity will be more noticeable than Saturday’s. Then it’s the full heat for Monday through Wednesday to finish off June. Monday will have only the minimal chance of isolated air mass showers or thunderstorms, and I think this even remote chance will be absent Tuesday with some potential drying of the air mass and a more westerly wind, not always well-forecast by guidance. Wednesday, a frontal boundary from the northwest that will be held back for several days finally tries to make a run into this area, and while it will likely fail in its effort to fully get into and across the region, in its weakening form it can still be a better trigger for showers and thunderstorms, so those will be in Wednesday’s forecast, with room for adjustment as we get closer to it…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (JULY 1-5)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Using guidance loosely and applying anticipated model error for early July outlook. Frontal boundary that approaches the region on the final day of June washes out over the region July 1 & 2 with each day running the chance of a couple showers and thunderstorms forming in the region, hottest day July 1, not as hot July 2, humidity high to moderate levels. Stronger front pushes through early July 3 from a not-well-forecast stronger high from Canada which clears the region for the balance of the holiday weekend with lower humidity but still warm for the balance of July 3-4. Heat comes back a little bit July 5 as high pressure shifts to the south. Confidence is not high on this outlook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (JULY 6-10)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Still a low confidence forecast here too but overall idea is typical summertime pattern with weak jet stream to the north and a regional pattern of moderate humidity, warm air, and limited shower and thunderstorm opportunities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
