DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 11-15)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have now reached mid June – still spring, technically, but as we move through these days more and more people start summertime activities, and this time of year often carries weather risk because we’re still technically in springtime, our most volatile season. And if you’ve had a pattern that has featured volatility \/ unsettled weather more than what we may typically see, well there you go. Is it any surprise we’re on the fence regarding this weekend’s weather? I will say though, I still have some optimistic thoughts about it. But before we get there, we have some other weather to talk about. Today and Thursday will feature a warmer, drier westerly air flow, with fair weather. The big issue is that this comes along with a substantial batch of high altitude wildfire smoke from Canada which will filter the sun considerably, especially Thursday. A building of high pressure to our west will tilt our air flow a bit more to the northwest on Friday, and while we’ll have some cloud patches and a little reduction in the smoke plume, it will be a mainly dry day (had showers in the forecast before, but feel they will hold off \/ not materialize). It will also be a little less warm on Friday. The weekend…. I’ve had some optimism in my outlook – a feeling that high pressure in eastern Canada would be a little more dominant than shown by guidance, and while the weather would be “unsettled”, we’d also have a share of nicer weather mixed in there. Today’s leaning is similar – and this finds me going for wettest weather chances favoring the early hours of Saturday, and another opportunity for some shower activity for a portion of the daytime Sunday, but with limited coverage. The pattern features high pressure to the north and a frontal boundary to the south, a focus for some moisture as disturbances move along it, but limited due to stronger high pressure to the north. There will be a lot of fine-tuning ahead for this weekend forecast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 16-20)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Large scale pattern dominated by the evolution of a modest middle US ridge of high pressure in a west northwest more progressive air flow over our region. A couple of disturbances can bring some unsettled weather in this pattern – currently favoring June 17 and 19, but with low confidence on timing and no details possible. Temperatures near to slightly below normal. Summer solstice: 10:54 p.m. June 20. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 21-25)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Indications for the general large scale pattern point to a middle US high pressure ridge and more of a west northwesterly air flow in our region with a weak trough being the main feature. This allows a couple disturbances \/ fronts with shower \/ thunderstorm threats. Variable temperatures \u2013 not far from normal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
