DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 17-21)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have a pretty decent change in our weather to take place in our weather in the next couple of days. First, a taste of summer today as we find ourselves briefly on the northeastern corner of a very warm air mass. But before we can heat up that much, a cold front will charge across the region from northwest to southeast during the first half of the afternoon. The timing of this front, and some limiting factors in the atmosphere, means that shower and thunderstorm activity along it will not reach its full potential. However, a brief heavy storm may visit some locations, favoring the NH Seacoast to eastern CT eastward. There may be a quick isolated follow up shower or storm in a few locations, but for the most part it looks like that one flip-of-a-coin chance from midday to mid afternoon from northwest to southeast, and then the storm chance and the warm up are done deals. Much cooler and dry air moves into the region tonight behind the front. Now, my weekend optimism has taken a big hit in the last 24 hours as it appears the position of upper level low pressure will be a little closer than I was thinking. This results in more cloudiness from a cold pool aloft both Saturday and Sunday, and a more direct delivery of anomalously cool air, so I will drop the forecast temperatures accordingly. I do think our rain chances will be limited to a couple opportunities for showers, mainly late evening to overnight Saturday night to early Sunday, and maybe again at some point during the day Sunday, so most outdoor plans can go ahead, but don’t expect them to take place with sunny and warm conditions. Monday and Tuesday, upper level low pressure departs as the temporarily blocked pattern opens up to a more westerly flow, and we see moderation in temperature and generally fair weather here for early next week. Although by Tuesday we may see cloudiness from passing storm complexes to our west again, a pattern somewhat similar to our recent one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TODAY: Lots of clouds and limited areas of sunshine early morning. Increasing sun mid through late morning. A band of cloudiness with possible showers and some heavier thunderstorms northwest to southeast across there region during the first half of the afternoon, may linger in southeastern MA and RI a little longer before the day ends with sun again. Highs 81-88, a bit cooler Cape Cod and immediate South Coast. Humid through early afternoon with dew points above 60, then drying out. Wind SW 5-15 MPH shifting to W 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TONIGHT: Clear. Lows 53-60. Wind NW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SATURDAY: Sunny early, then lots of clouds. Highs 67-74. Wind NW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SATURDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers late evening and overnight. Lows 50-57. Wind NW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy. Isolated to scattered showers favoring eastern areas. Highs 58-65. Wind NW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SUNDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 46-53. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 22-26)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A general northwesterly air flow pattern at upper levels will be the rule again. Somewhere in the June 22-23 time frame we may see a warm front \/ cold front combo with a little bit of unsettled weather. A mid period disturbance may bring brief rainfall before we warm up to seasonable levels (low confidence this far out) for the June 25-26 weekend with mostly fair weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 27 – JULY 1)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Early period cool-down via Canada, later period warm-up due to more high pressure dominating. Early call, low confidence on this outlook.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
