DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 14-18)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not much to update today. Upper low pressure to our east, high pressure to our west is the general pattern through Friday. The influence of solar heating and cool air aloft associated with the upper low can trigger isolated showers later today, but most areas will remain dry. Thursday, showers are again a potential, but a higher one, with greater coverage, and we’ll see those moving from north to south into the region during the second half of the afternoon into the evening. Friday will be a dry day. The slower movement of large scale systems now pretty much guarantees a rain-free Saturday as we’ll have a narrow area of high pressure between the departed upper low and the next trough approaching from the west. However, Sunday is more likely to be unsettled with clouds and showers as that trough from the west gets in. Other things of note include high altitude wildfire smoke from Canada in our sky much of the next three days, and it may be thickest on Thursday before starting to thin out by later on Friday. Additionally, forecast Hurricane Ernesto is expected to be well offshore of the US East Coast by this weekend, still far to the southeast of New England, but close enough that we’ll start seeing larger ocean swells along our coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TODAY: High altitude smoke with filtered sun. Becoming partly cloudy later with isolated late-day showers favoring areas west of I-95 \/ north of I-90. Highs 75-82. Dew point upper 50s to lower 60s. Wind variable up to 10 MPH with coastal sea breezes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. A few isolated showers possible southern NH and northern MA in the evening. Fog patches develop interior lower elevations overnight. Lows 57-64. Dew point upper 50s. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
THURSDAY: Filtered sun mixed with clouds with clouds taking over later on and showers more likely from north to south late day into the evening. Highs 77-84. Dew point lower 60s. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
THURSDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. A chance of showers in the evening. Patchy fog forming. Lows 58-65. Dew point upper 50s to lower 60s. Wind variable under 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
FRIDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 77-84. Dew point near 60. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
FRIDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Patchy fog. Lows 60-67. Dew point near 60. Wind S under 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SATURDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 78-85. Dew point 60+. Wind S 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SATURDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Patchy fog. Lows 60-67. Dew point 60+. Wind S up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SUNDAY: Mostly cloudy. Showers likely. Chance of a thunderstorm. Highs 73-80. Dew point in 60s. Wind S 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 19-23)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A trough nearby means higher humidity and shower opportunities early next week before drier air arrives mid to late week. Ernesto well offshore early in the period will create large ocean swells and rough surf at the coast. Temperatures near normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 24-28)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The late August pattern looks fairly benign – seasonably warm – a couple shower and thunderstorm chances to sort out as we get closer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
