DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 27-31)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Heat and humidity hang on especially for southern areas for one more day but a back-door cold front will cross the region during the day today into this evening putting an end to the hot spell. The front, besides a wind shift and temperature drop, won’t produce much more than an isolated shower or thunderstorm mainly south of I-90 sometime today, if anything at all. High pressure builds across eastern Canada supplying cooler maritime air for the weekend and the front will come to a stop just south of New England before starting to return as a warm front later Sunday. I’m optimistic that enough dry air will be supplied by the high pressure area to keep us mainly dry for the weekend, with even partial sunshine, but showers should become more possible especially in southern and western areas with the approach of the warm front later Sunday. The front pushes across the region Sunday night into early Monday delivering a warm to hot and humid air mass to us once again, but this time for a very brief visit as a well defined cold front then approaches later Monday from the northwest and passes through the region Monday night and early Tuesday, bringing a drier Canadian air mass in, this time a continental polar air mass from the northwest for a warm but drier end to the month of August.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (SEPTEMBER 1-5)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The moisture from the remains of a Gulf of Mexico tropical system (Ida) may impact our area with a chance of rain sometime September 1 into September 2, depending on how they move into and through the eastern US. Behind that should be a period of warm and humid weather for a day or two before a Canadian cold front brings a shower\/thunderstorm threat by the end of the period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (SEPTEMBER 6-10)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One or two shots of cooler\/dry air are possible during this period, but the details cannot be determined just yet. This should be a drier period of weather overall, but at least one shower threat should take place with an air mass change.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
