DAYS 1-5 (JULY 22-26)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We’re finally going to be released from the grip of the unsettled summer pattern, at least for now. It starts right away too. First the cold front that helped trigger the thunderstorms of last evening is right near our eastern coast to start the day, but will drift offshore as the day goes on. Lots of clouds sit across southern NH and eastern MA to start the day, but these will dissipate and move out with time. Elsewhere, more sunshine starts the day. The region as a whole will end up in a sun\/cloud mix this afternoon with some fair-weather diurnal cloud development. Look for the dew point to edge downward behind the cold front as a light westerly air flow takes over. Sunday and Monday will be two nice weather days with relatively low humidity in comparison to many recent days. It won’t be polar dry, but dew points can drop below 60 for many areas for the first time in quite a while. We’ll see abundant sun both days, but some high and mid level clouds may increase near the South Coast later Monday in response to a weak area of low pressure to the south. This low should pass harmlessly out to sea Monday night. Meanwhile, weak high pressure located over the northern Appalachians will be enough to keep our weather fair during this period. It will shift offshore Tuesday allowing the humidity to come back up a little. Previously, I’ve had a shower and thunderstorm threat in the forecast for Tuesday, but the trough I’m targeting to trigger this may be a little later in timing, passing by without much fanfare later Tuesday night or early Wednesday with more clouds than anything else, so for now this period of time has a drier forecast. This also includes the balance of Wednesday when the wind shifts back to the west but it’s quite warm thanks to a stronger influence from upper level high pressure over the western Atlantic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TODAY: Mostly cloudy southern NH and eastern MA with sun elsewhere this morning. A more even sun\/cloud mix this afternoon. Highs 78-85, coolest Cape Cod. Dew point lowering toward 60. Wind W up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy evening, then clearing. Ground fog forming in some inland lower elevations Lows 57-64, coolest interior lower elevations. Dew point upper 50s to 60. Wind WNW under 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 81-88. Dew point around 60. Wind NW up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SUNDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 61-68. Dew point upper 50s. Wind NW under 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 80-87, coolest coast. Dew point around 60. Wind variable up to SW up to 10 MPH with coastal sea breezes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MONDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Fog patches may form in lower elevations. Lows 61-68. Dew point near 60. Wind variable under 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TUESDAY: Partly cloudy. Highs 81-88. Dew point 60+. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TUESDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Lows 63-70. Dew point 60+. Wind SW up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
WEDNESDAY: Early clouds, then sun dominates. Highs 83-90. Dew point 60+. Wind W 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 6-10 (JULY 27-31)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A mini hot spell July 27-28 with more 90+ high temps possible in the region. Thunderstorms may arrive later July 28 depending on the timing of a disturbance from the west. If it’s slower, July 29 can start unsettled but overall looks like a fair, seasonably warm, and slightly less humid July 29-31 period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 1-5)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
August starts with a pattern readjustment to a ridge central US, a weak through Northeast, and high pressure further east in the western Atlantic. Indications are for enough northwesterly air flow for a less wet set-up than the previous trough pattern, and warmer weather but no long-lasting hot spells.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
