DAYS 1-5 (SEPTEMBER 11-15)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
First, I need to mention that despite the fact that the large swells and rough surf are settling down in the wake of Larry’s far offshore passage, there is still enough around to result in enhanced rip current risks at the beaches this weekend, especially today, so keep that in mind if making a late summer beach visit! Otherwise, a great weekend as high pressure slides just to the south of New England then off the Mid Atlantic Coast, keeping all of today dry and the daylight and early evening hours of Sunday rain-free as it turns a bit more humid. A cold front approaches Sunday night and moves across the region from northwest to southeast late at night, at which time we will also eye the remnants of a mesoscale convective system (MCS) coming out of the Great Lakes region. The remnants of this system may move through with a batch of showers and thunderstorms during the late night Sunday \/ early morning Monday time frame, so we’ll have to keep an eye on it for the possibility of at least briefly heavy rainfall and gusty wind. These systems can be rather fickle and hard to pin-point in track even just a day or so in advance, as it hasn’t even formed yet, but is indicated strongly by short range guidance. Regardless, the frontal boundary will clear the region Monday morning with improved weather during the day Monday, and fair weather lasting through most of Tuesday as a small bubble of high pressure moves across the region. The front that went by early Monday will then return as a warm front moving across the region from southwest to northeast Tuesday night with a shower threat from it, then we will find ourselves in a warm and more humid southwesterly air flow for the day on Wednesday with the feel of summer back in the picture. Low pressure moving eastward to the north of the region will drag a cold front through on Wednesday night when there is the chance of a shower or thunderstorm once again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (SEPTEMBER 16-20)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While the overall flow pattern will continue to be west to east, it weakens, and timing and strength of systems becomes a little uncertain. We’ll also have to watch a low pressure area, potentially of tropical origin, from mid to late period. Current idea is that a bubble of high pressure moves in with fair weather September 16-18, starting drier then turning more humid, then shower\/rain chances increase toward the September 19-20 weekend with low pressure or at least some tropical moisture moving up from the south. Adjustments will likely be needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (SEPTEMBER 21-25)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The general weather patter should still favor west to east flow but with the jet stream fairly far north we remain vulnerable to tropical moisture from the south should the set-up draw it northward. I do think we will get on push of dry Canadian air sometime early to mid period.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
