DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 1-5)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
April’s arrival will be met with changeable weather today – a foggy start giving way to a rainy morning, a drier afternoon with sunshine for some, a shower or thunderstorm for some locations this evening, and a if you’re up later tonight and outside, you can feel the arrival of a cold air mass. Low pressure passing to our north causes this as its warm front saunters across the region from south to north this morning, putting us in the “warm sector” for midday and afternoon, before its cold front charges through from west to east this evening. Of course, while it turns quite mild across the region today, that warm air will be greatly modified closer to the South Coast where a southwesterly wind comes off chilly ocean water – typical for this time of the year of course. Sunday’s weather will be less changeable – a blustery, bright day, and quite a bit cooler than today. High pressure moves in for more tranquil conditions Sunday night into Monday, and as the high sinks to the south, it will warm up Monday afternoon decently, ahead of an approaching cold front. This front will have far less punch than its predecessor, bringing the chance of a rain shower to the region Monday night. Behind it, the air isn’t that cold, with most of the cooling coming from a light wind off the water in coastal areas on Tuesday. By Wednesday of next week, low pressure heading for the Great Lakes extends its warm front to just south of our region, and we can expect a general onshore air flow, and a cloudy day with a chance of some rainfall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TODAY: Areas of fog early. Cloudy morning with rain, moderate to heavy at times. Breaking clouds and clearing with sunshine emerging especially northeastern CT and central through northeastern and east central MA and southern NH for the afternoon while clouds hang on longer to the southeast, eventually with some partial clearing in those areas as well. Highs 52-59 South Coast, 60-67 elsewhere. Wind varible up to 10 MPH except SW 10-20 MPH South Coast at first, then SW 15-25 MPH later with gusts 25-35 MPH, except 20-30 MPH with gusts 35-45 MPH Cape Cod & Islands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 6-10)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unsettled weather likely lingers for the start of the period until a cold front trailing low pressure in eastern Canada goes by the region. There’s a lot of uncertainty in the weather that results from a somewhat complex pattern as we head through next week. Inconsistent guidance doesn’t help – showing fair\/mild weather on one run for a given day only to decide it can snow on the next run. My overall feeling remains generally the same. I’m leaning toward a fair, cool mid period, a warm-up, to follow, then unsettled weather arriving at the end of the period. Don’t make any solid plans off this outlook as obviously a lot of fine-tuning is to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
