DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 12-16)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Bermuda High will do its thing for 2 more days, through Friday, with heat and humidity being the rule and thunderstorms being the exception. Only a few may wander into the area later this evening that had formed to the west, and as a cold front begins an approach to the region, the same may happen later Friday night, but there is only the slight chance that any isolated storms can pop up during the afternoon heat as, despite the heat and humidity, we don’t have much in the way of any triggers for them. Reminder #1: If you are outside, try to stay out of direct sun and do as much activity as possible before and after the highest sun angles of the day. Reminder #2: Perseid Meteor Shower continues at peak, but some limited visibility due to haze \/ smoke \/ and patchy clouds. Still, the best time to try viewing them high in the northeast sky to overhead is midnight to first light Friday morning. The aforementioned cold front will be making its charge across our area during Saturday morning and midday with our best chance of showers and thunderstorms occurring then. Whether any given location sees that activity or not, the heat and humidity will break that day and by Saturday night, Sunday, and on into Monday, much more comfortable air will be here with a high pressure area building into the region from Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 17-21)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
High pressure should keep the region dry with low to moderate humidity through the middle of the period before humidity starts to increase and the shower threat starts to appear later in the period, pending the movement of moisture to the south and southwest of New England.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 22-26)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
High pressure off the US East Coast with a south to southwest flow of more humid air and we’ll have to watch some tropical moisture and a couple disturbances for shower threats.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
