DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 4-8)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first weekend of June, keeping in mind that while we call this meteorological summer that it is still spring, behaves like late spring. Starting out today we have a considerable covering of stratus clouds, but with little more to feed it and high-angle sun to work on it, we’ll see it dissipate by midday. The June sun will then work on what little moisture is near ground level to help raise some thermals and pop some diurnal cumulus clouds this afternoon, making for a sun\/cloud mix. Later in the day, a cold front coming along from the west may trigger some taller clouds, enough to produce a shower (maybe even brief downpour) for some areas, but coverage on these looks low, with best chance of occurrence north of I-90, so while these will not be beneficial in terms of our rainfall deficit, they will also not be overly-interrupting of outdoor plans, maybe just causing brief delays of activities here and there. Tonight, the front pushes eastward, offshore, and we experience a clear and dry night, a bit cool too. Sunday, high pressure brings us a top 10 “chamber of commerce” style day, with lots of sunshine, low humidity, and mild air. For people desiring the beach or lake for swimming, it will be a little cooler than most would like, but no surprise for early June. Still a very nice day for outdoor activities! The high pressure area will slide off to the east but retain control of our weather Monday – another nice day – before giving it up Tuesday as an approaching trough from the west sends a frontal system our way, increasing the cloudiness and eventually bringing a chance of showers, which as it looks now will hang around into Wednesday as the front slows down while moving through. I must also mention that a tropical low (not strong enough to be a tropical storm as of yet) is moving northeastward across South Florida today, bringing heavy rain and areas of flooding there, and this system, likely to get a name (Alex) as it heads offshore, remains well south of New England into early next week on its ocean journey, but may eventually kick up our ocean swells but most likely not until Monday. But our water “hazard” this weekend will be that the water temps are still a bit too chilly for safe swimming, so keep that in mind if you do have “in-water” plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 9-13)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The aforementioned trough will still be to our west for a good part of this period of time, and this gives us an opportunity for a couple additional episodes of unsettled weather. With a weekend (June 11-12) in there there will be plenty of scrutiny on the details for the weather, but as you know it’s a bit early to be confident of day-to-day details, so there will be fine-tuning to come. For now, I’ll lean toward early June 9 and late June 10 to early June 11 as having the slightly higher probabilities of seeing any wet weather. Temperatures for this period will average near to slightly below normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 14-18)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Continued generally weak westerly flow pattern with mean trough position not too far to our west which sends a few disturbances through the region with shower threats, but mostly minor systems and limited rain threats. Early hints that the pattern wants to shift a little later in the period to put more ridge near the East Coast, but this will probably take place later than current mid range projections indicate, so will hold back on going for this. Temperatures slightly below to near normal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
