DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 9-13)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The weather system that was once Debby will push through the region during the next 24 hours (by early Saturday morning). This results in a humid and unsettled day today, although rain coverage will not be that high until later tonight when a final band of widespread showers and embedded thunderstorms pushes through with a trailing front from the low center as it passes by to our northwest and north. Prior to that we’ll have isolated to scattered showers, though a few can be heavy, and we’ll also see a pretty decent fog blanket to start the day today before that thins out and dissipates with some increase in wind. Any breaks of sun today will be limited and most likely to occur at some point this afternoon over eastern MA and RI. Of note, there’s a little bit of wind shear available in the lower levels of the atmosphere tonight as the heavier band of showers pushes through, and while the chance is better west of the WHW forecast area, there is a tiny shot at an isolated brief and relatively weak tornado in any stronger cell. All of the unsettled weather pushes offshore right about dawn on Saturday, setting our region up for a great summer weekend. It’ll take several hours for the wet ground to dry out Saturday, otherwise it’s to be a very nice day, warm with gradually lowering humidity and a nice breeze as well. Sunday’s weather will be pleasantly warm with low humidity and a sun\/cloud mix. Heading into early next week, there’s a slight change in the forecast. A disturbance I was eyeing for the potential for a shower or thunderstorm Tuesday is going to be 24 hours faster than I thought a couple days ago, bringing that shower and thunderstorm chance Monday, with fair weather returning Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
