COMMENTARY<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you did not get to see last night’s display of the aurora borealis which was widespread across not only New England, but a good portion of the North America, including as far south as Alabama and Georgia, seek out photos online. I witnessed it myself and am in awe at how magnificent it was. I’d seen the display before, in a barely-visible state near the horizon a few times, but never close to this magnitude. Am I ever glad my sky forecast was wrong for most of the region. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 1-5 (MAY 11-15)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A large scale northeasterly flow continues today and the dry air that allowed the northern lights to be seen last night will help much of the region start the day with sun today, but a little more moisture coming from the Atlantic will help clouds to pop up and move in from the northeast, and a few of these can produce showers, though they will be isolated in nature, and most of the region will have another rain-free day. Upper level low pressure drifts into the region Sunday but the surface reflection of low pressure is rather weak and will move south of our area. At most, a few showers will work into the region Sunday afternoon but I’m not expecting very widespread coverage, making it possible that the entire weekend is rain-free for many areas. This feature exits Monday and that day, as well as Tuesday, will feature a warm up with a southwesterly air flow as an area of high pressure scoots to our south. A frontal boundary approaches later Tuesday, but I feel its associated showers will wait until sometime that night to move in. The front and a wave of low pressure likely combine for an unsettled day on Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
