DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 20-24)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The final hours of spring today will feature a dew point crash with incoming dry air, but this will be accompanied by quite a bit of wind on the back side of a pretty potent low pressure area moving from northern New England into southeastern Canada. Some cloudiness will be moving across our sky to start the day, but lower atmospheric drying will lead to more sun with just a few passing fair weather clouds as the day goes on. It’ll be a relatively warm day, but less hot than yesterday and even feeling a bit cool out of the sun due to the gusty breeze. That breeze will ease tonight as low pressure pulls away. We welcome summer with the occurrence of the solstice tonight, 10:41 p.m. EDT. Look for a clear evening then some varying amounts of high and middle clouds to arrive from the northwest overnight due to upstream convective activity in the Great Lakes – typical for this time of year in the pattern that evolves heading into the weekend. This may limit the sun at times Saturday, especially in the morning, but overall it’s a nice day with dry weather, warm air, less wind, and fairly low humidity. Another complex of thunderstorms, this one more potent, will be developing this evening in the Upper Plains into the Upper Midwest (something mentioned several times this week). This system will move across the Upper Great Lakes Saturday then bear right on the atmospheric highway (aka jet stream), moving across New England in the overnight and morning hours of Sunday. It’s uncertain how much of the actual thunderstorm activity will survive the trip, and while northern New England certainly stands the best chance of seeing some of that, here in our region we can see a passing shower or storm at some point between the pre-dawn and mid morning hours of Sunday – something to monitor and fine tune, eventually “now-cast”. The remainder of Sunday, behind that system, will feature a sun\/cloud mix, a bit more humidity, and warm air, but I think the chance of any additional shower or thunderstorm will be extremely low – enough so that I don’t even mention it in my detailed forecast below. The upper level pattern features a ridge building into our region early next week – a heat signature. However, a weak pressure gradient leaves the coast vulnerable to sea breezes, especially Monday (less so Tuesday) so the higher heat may not occur in every location in our region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TODAY: Sun\/cloud mix, trending sunnier. Highs 78-85. Dew point falls below 60. Wind W 10-20 MPH, gusts 30 MPH or greater until late in the afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SATURDAY NIGHT: Clouds arrive. A shower or thunderstorm possible overnight, mainly north and west of Boston. Lows 60-67. Wind S 5-15 MPH, higher gusts overnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SUNDAY: Lots of clouds through mid morning with a shower or thunderstorm possible, then a sun\/cloud mix. Highs 80-87. Dew point rises above 60. Wind W 5-15 MPH, a few higher gusts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SUNDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Patchy fog. Lows 62-69. Dew point 60+. Wind SW up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 86-93, but can be cooler along the coastline. Dew point 60+. Wind SW to variable up to 10 MPH with coastal sea breezes possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MONDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear to partly cloudy. Lows 65-72. Dew point 60+. Wind variable to SW up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 90-97 but considerably cooler South Coast, and possibly cooler eastern coastal areas. Dew point 60+. Wind SW to variable up to 10 MPH with a coastal sea breeze potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 25-29)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Trend for Canadian high pressure to move more influence with less heat, coolest coastal areas, and mostly fair weather during this period. Best chance to see a shower or thunderstorm around June 26 and\/or June 27.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 30 \u2013 JULY 4)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Upper level west to northwest flow. This can bring a couple disturbances and shower \/ t-storm chances to the region, but the overall pattern is dry and seasonably warm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
