DAYS 1-5 (OCTOBER 10-14)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
High pressure centered to the northeast of New England and low pressure to the south continue to create a general onshore air flow from the east and northeast. The low to the south will make its best run at us today and this evening, managing to spread some rainfall into the South Coast region and a few patches of rain a little further north into eastern and central MA mainly this afternoon and evening, with some lingering South Coast rain overnight before the high ultimately wins the battle and pushes it all to the south again. This means that Marathon Monday (the first and perhaps only one we’ll ever see in October) will be a rain-free day although there will be a fair amount of cloudiness, moderate humidity and a light head wind for runners. I’m still expecting temperatures to be in the upper 50s to lower 60s for the early part of the racing and well into the 60s later in the day as the mid to back-of-pack runners are finishing. High pressure at the surface and aloft gains stronger control Tuesday and tries to hang on Wednesday while the remains of a weakening \/ dissipating trough from the west move in, but then the high regains control again by Thursday, so we see generally fair weather and above normal temperatures heading into the middle of the week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TODAY: Mostly cloudy. Afternoon light rain most likely South Coast with spotty light rain possible elsewhere especially eastern MA. Highs 60-67. Wind E to NE up to 10 MPH, a few gusts around 15-20 MPH South Coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Areas of fog. Chance of light rain favoring RI and southeastern MA mainly evening but lingering near the South Coast overnight. Lows 51-58. Wind ESE up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MONDAY: Mostly cloudy to partly sunny. Early-morning patches of light rain possible near Cape Cod. Highs 63-70. Wind SE up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MONDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Patchy fog. Lows 52-59. Wind SSE up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TUESDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 65-72. Wind variable to S up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TUESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Patchy fog. Lows 52-59. Wind S under 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
WEDNESDAY: Partly sunny. Slight chance of a shower. Highs 67-74. Wind variable to S up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy evening. Partly cloudy overnight. Patchy fog. Lows 52-59. Wind S to variable under 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 15-19)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A low pressure area is destined to pass north of New England between late October 15 and late October 16, dragging a warm front \/ cold front combo across the region. Most rainfall activity with the warm front should stay to the north with October 15 being a partly cloudy and mild day for mid October, and then a round of showers is expected with the cold front, current timing expected to be sometime during the first half of October 16 (Saturday of next weekend) which means the weekend may start out unsettled, after which we should see drier and cooler weather with a westerly breeze take over for the balance of the weekend (through October 17). High pressure looks like it will control the weather with fair weather and another warming trend for the remainder of this period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 20-24)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As we head into late October the indications are mixed from our medium range guidance but at this time I lean toward high pressure being in control of the weather here with mostly fair weather and above normal temperatures.. Some guidance has shown a more progressive flow with systems moving through more frequently and at the same time other guidance has shown a slower, more amplified pattern. When I see this conflict, my tendency is to persist with the same forecast from the day before and watch the trends.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
