DAYS 1-5 (JULY 28 – AUGUST 1)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A lot is going on with our weather pattern these days so let’s go through it. Yesterday’s higher humidity, warmth, showers, and thunderstorms are gone, but not before a swatch of stronger storms with scattered wind damage occurred, especially along and either side of I-90 (just a bit further south than I had expected the axis of stronger storms to be). A cold front has passed by and is exiting via the South Coast early this morning, with lingering cloudiness and still a few showers possible up until mid morning. This afternoon, the arrival of dry air will help to clear the sky, but a north to northeast breeze will also transport rather cool air into the region, as much as 20 to 25 degrees cooler than the high temperatures of Tuesday. So if you have outdoor plans , the afternoon is your driest time and the evening will be rather cool for late July. We see a temperature rebound a little bit on Thursday but this will come with a bit of a price, in the form of more clouds and the threat of a shower or two as a warm front moves into and across the region. This will be followed by a cold front coming through that evening and night, parented by low pressure passing north of the region. This cold front will bring the risk of showers and thunderstorms, mostly during the evening. Right now I’m not expecting a repeat of what took place last night, but we may have to watch for a few stronger storms. Friday, drier air arrives again, but some upper level energy and a pool of cold air aloft may trigger a few pop up showers and thunderstorms. That will be out of here by Friday night and set us up for a dry and pleasant final day of July, courtesy Canadian high pressure. With moderate confidence I tell you that the first day of August on Sunday should be seasonably warm and more humid but with a chance of showers and thunderstorms are some point during the day, depending on the timing of an approaching disturbance and front.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 2-6)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A weakening of the dominant west northwest air flow, becoming a weaker west to southwest flow as there will also be a tendency for more high pressure off the US East Coast. This opens the door for higher humidity, warmth but no major sustained heat, and a few shower and thunderstorm opportunities, but limited. It looks like the boundary between this and cooler air in Canada will stay mostly to the north of the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 7-11)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A continuation of more dominant warmth and humidity but with the additional of more shower and thunderstorm opportunities as a frontal boundary hangs around close to the region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
