High pressure centered over the Canadian Maritime Provinces will\u00a0 provide fair weather this weekend with ocean-modified air. A wind off the ocean into eastern areas is already pushing some low clouds onshore but these will eventually break up and dissipate under the strong June sun into the afternoon. Enough low level moisture will be in place tonight and Sunday morning for low clouds and areas of fog to become more widespread, with this process to be repeated Sunday night and Monday morning. Sun should burn any of this off easily by\u00a0 midday Sunday, but may have a little more difficulty doing so on Monday if enough high and middle clouds filter the sunshine. This would take place as warm air started to move in aloft.<\/p>\n
By Tuesday and through the middle of next week, high pressure will have shifted to a position off the US East Coast, and this will allow a west to southwest flow of much warmer air into New England. I still hesitate to jump all over 90+ temperatures, but the fact we are now in a stretch of mostly sunny and dry weather is rapidly starting to dry out the top soil and will make at least upper 80s and possibly 90 more possible by Wednesday and\/or Thursday. Leaning toward Wednesday as the warmest day now as a very weak front may cross the region early Thursday and introduce very slightly cooler air into the region for that day. Timing of course is not certain this far out anyway, and anything midweek is speculation based on guidance at this point.<\/p>\n
For now, the forecast for eastern MA, RI, and southeastern NH…<\/p>\n
