An approaching cold front will bring the chance for showers and thunderstorms late this afternoon into this evening. While this doesn&#8217;t look like a widespread wild weather event, a few of the storms could be strong, so be on the look-out if you have outdoor plans or will be doing traveling. Tonight, the front makes its way through, but it&#8217;ll be mainly cloudy for a while and some shower activity may linger especially to the south as we transition to a cooler air mass. Monday&#8217;s weather as dominated by Canadian high pressure with a cool breeze and low humidity. As we head through Tuesday and midweek, the overall pattern becomes a little more complex. One player will be the remains of a disturbance heading this way from the northwest. Most indications are that it will weaken significantly and bring cloudiness and some chance of shower activity about Wednesday. During this time, Hurricane Erin, which has maxed out in intensity, and will now fluctuate in intensity before weakening, will be making a re-curve to the northeast and will be tracking northward then northeastward, into its position of closest pass to the US East Coast, about or just over half way between it and Bermuda. That storm will be far enough offshore not to have a significant interaction with the system in our area, which by  Thursday, will have vacated our region anyway, and we&#8217;ll be back to fair weather with a northeasterly air flow. The only certainty from Erin will be the rough surf and large swells impacting the coast during midweek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TODAY: Areas of low clouds Boston&#8217;s Metro West to RI, eastern CT, central MA, and southwestern NH, dissipating during mid morning.
