DAYS 1-5 (SEPTEMBER 16-20)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A slow moving cold front is now across RI and southeastern MA and crawling to the southeast, and will come to a stop and lose its identity over the next 24 hours. Before that happens, some energy moving across our region, combined with the contrasts created by the frontal boundary, continue to produce a fairly decent area of showers and embedded thunderstorms in the vicinity of the boundary, and lighter scattered showers to the northwest. This activity will gradually diminish during the day. Clouds will hang around though for the remainder of today, tonight, and through Friday. We will also be watching low pressure to the south of New England which will be moving north to northeast, staying offshore, but close enough to possibly toss some bands of shower activity into the region at times Friday and Friday night. The low should pull far enough to the northeast so that drier air is drawn in during Saturday with improving weather, but cannot rule out a few pop up showers from leftover instability. High pressure builds in with fair, warming weather Sunday and Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (SEPTEMBER 21-25)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
High pressure is expected to bring dry weather and above normal temperatures to the region September 21-22. Current indications are that a trough and cold front will pass through from west to east sometime September 23 with a shower threat, followed by another area of high pressure building in with more fair weather for the end of the period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (SEPTEMBER 26-30)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
