DAYS 1-5 (MAY 30 \u2013 JUNE 3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unsettled weather prevails for the final 2 days of May as a kind of summary to the month we just went through. Drought Monitor update yesterday did indeed show the drought is gone with the exception of a very small area on Cape Cod and Nantucket. In the short term, there’s additional drought reduction \/ elimination potential for those final areas as well. Today, a frontal boundary sitting in the region triggers a few early-day showers, and a few afternoon showers and thunderstorms, favoring the I-95 belt region. Coverage should be fairly low overall, but any area that does see one or two pass through can experience brief downpours. Tonight, a wave of low pressure rides up the boundary and delivers widespread showers and embedded thunderstorms from late evening through overnight generally from south to north. This main area will depart by mid morning with a dry slot delivering some sun, but the trailing trough can trigger additional showers and thunderstorms any time from midday on, and an additional disturbance will bring another batch of showers and storms in the evening. This reflects faster timing than what I indicated on yesterday’s update, as the disturbance will take on more of a trough form, connected to the low pressure area that just went by, instead of developing into its own low center. This is good news for Sunday, with a drier westerly air flow dominate all day. The fact that we still have a trough overhead though means that chilly air associated with it aloft will allow the development of a fair amount of cumulus clouds on Sunday, so it’ll be a “limited sun” situation. I don’t think any of these clouds will grow capable of producing showers, so it should be a rain-free day and a bit cooler than Saturday. Monday and Tuesday feature a westerly air flow, dry weather, and a warming trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TODAY: Mostly cloudy morning including an early-day shower north of Boston. Partly sunny afternoon but isolated to widely scattered showers and thunderstorms, favoring the I-95 belt. Highs 65-72 South Coast, 73-80 elsewhere. Wind SW to variable up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TONIGHT: Clouding over. Late evening and overnight widespread showers and possible thunderstorms. Patchy fog. Lows 54-61. Wind variable to N up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SATURDAY: Variably cloudy. Showers \/ thunderstorms end south to north by mid morning. Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms possible any time midday on. Highs 66-73. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SATURDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy with showers likely and possibly a thunderstorm, mainly mid evening to 3:00AM. Patchy fog. Lows 53-60. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SUNDAY: Sun\/cloud mix. Highs 62-69. Wind W 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SUNDAY NIGHT: Clearing. Lows 51-58. Wind W 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 62-69. Wind W 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MONDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 53-60. Wind W under 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 70-77, may be cooler at the coast. Wind W up to 10 MPH but potential coastal sea breezes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 4-8)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Watching a weak but broad area of low pressure to the south of New England which may thwart the midweek warm-up at least for a day June 4 with more clouds and a broad scale onshore air flow. Warmer weather returns after that, but watch a cold front from the north late next week (later June 6 current estimating timing) for a shower\/thunderstorm threat. Early optimism for rain-free but slightly cooler weather June 7-8 weekend with influence from Canadian high pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 9-13)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Still some hints of weak blocking and a round or two of unsettled weather, but details remain very fuzzy out this far.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
