What&#8217;s become a warm front will approach today and tonight with an increase in clouds from south to north (more sun north today as dry air holds the clouds at bay for several hours), and a few showers push northward into the region, but most of them struggle to survive drier air in place, with most of them occurring tonight. Friday, we find ourselves in the warm sector with a muggy flow of warmer air on a southeast to south wind, along with scattered showers. The low center passes west and north of our region Friday night and early Saturday, dragging a cold front through here with a more solid band of showers and possible thunderstorms Friday night to pre-dawn Saturday. This is when the heaviest rain will occur, but it will be so brief in duration that most amounts will fall shy of 1 inch, and it will move so quickly out of here that we have a great weekend ahead with a westerly air flow dominating. In typical summertime fashion, there&#8217;s not a lot of cooling to take place right behind what is now a &#8220;cold front&#8221;, so Saturday will be quite a warm day, but with lowering humidity. Sunday will be a pleasant summer day, warm, not humid, with sun but some fair weather clouds popping up during the day. Monday&#8217;s weather looks fair with a continued dry westerly flow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TODAY: Most sun north and less sun south much of day, before clouds spread north later. Sprinkles of light rain mainly west of Boston late day. Highs 73-80, warmest inland. Dew point near 60. Wind N to E up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TONIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Occasional showers. Patchy fog forms. Lows 63-70. Dew point rising through 60s. Wind SE 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FRIDAY: Mostly cloudy. Episodes of showers with scattered downpours too. Fog patches early. Highs 72-79.
