DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 24-28)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rough surf and rip currents gradually decrease during the day today along the coast, but are still a factor, so use caution if you have beach\/boating plans, especially along east-facing shores. This is still ongoing in the wake of Erin, which itself is long gone in the North Atlantic. It can take up to a few days for ocean surface impacts to settle in the wake of these passing storms. Weather-wise, we’re looking at a pretty decent Sunday – fairly warm with humidity a bit higher (noticeable to the most sensitive folks) as high pressure sits offshore and a cold front approaches from the west, resulting in a southwesterly air flow. At the same time, to the south is a low pressure area (non-tropical) off the Mid Atlantic Coast. This will be heading north northeast, and the combination of it and the approaching front will change our sunny early-day sky into one with some increasing cloud coverage. Unsettled weather will arrive overnight and last through Monday from both systems, although the offshore low will only clip Cape Cod and the Islands with some steadier rain for a few hours – though beneficial as drought exists there. The rest of us will have to wait to see what kind of shower and possible thunderstorm activity the cold front can produce as it moves across our region fairly slowly during the day and evening hours. Monday night, the front clears the region and the low to the east departs via the Gulf of Maine, and Tuesday we’ll see fair weather return along with lower humidity and cooler air, though a sun\/cloud mix will be our sky as we have some chilly air aloft with the passage of an upper trough of low pressure. Similar weather is expected Wednesday – a sun\/cloud mix – with high pressure at the surface to our west but a trough moving over our area. Shower activity Tuesday and Wednesday should be confined to the mountain areas to our west and north so I expect dry weather here in the WHW forecast area. High pressure will nose into the region from the southwest with sunnier weather for Thursday but comfortable late August air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TODAY: Sun dominates to start, clouds become more prevalent by late-day. Highs 81-88 except 73-80 South Coast. Dew point climbs into the 60s. Wind S 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MONDAY: Variably cloudy. Early-morning rain potential Cape Cod \/ Islands. Scattered showers and thunderstorms elsewhere – trend from west to east. Highs 76-83. Dew point in 60s. Wind variable around 10 MPH Cape Cod and Islands early, otherwise SW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
MONDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Shower potential evening. Patchy fog overnight. Lows 55-62 with similar dew points. Wind shifts to W up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TUESDAY: Sun \/ cloud mix. Highs 72-79. Wind W 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TUESDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 52-59. Wind NW under 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
WEDNESDAY: Partly cloudy. Highs 71-78. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Clearing. Lows 52-59. Wind W up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 29 \u2013 SEPTEMBER 2)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another trough moves through the region late next week (August 29) with a shower and thunderstorm chance, but uncertain how widespread they’ll be. High pressure builds in for Labor Day Weekend with fair, pleasant weather. Fair weather is expected to continue for the end of the period with a modest warm-up. There is some medium range guidance that has inconsistently indicated unsettled weather September 1 and\/or 2. I lean to dry weather for this period but will keep an eye on trends there as sometimes guidance fails to pick up on disturbances at this range and you get inconsistent simulations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (SEPTEMBER 3-7)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
High pressure brings dry weather to the region at least into mid period. Watching later in the period for some potential for at least briefly unsettled weather, but low confidence on that idea. Temperatures near to slightly below normal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
