Low pressure pulls further away and high pressure slides south of the region Tuesday with fair, chilly, and more tranquil weather, and then the high slides offshore by Wednesday with a milder southwesterly wind. At that time, a weakening cold front from a low pressure area well to our northwest will approach, bringing a round or two of light rainfall, but this will be battling some drier air at mid levels and may have trouble maintaining much identity as it moves into the region, so any rain that does occur would be limited. Later in the week a transition to colder weather takes place as a larger scale trough moves into the region. It looks like we&#8217;ll be mild enough for a few rain showers to be around on Thursday during the day, and while it appears that more significant storm development would take place too far offshore to have direct impact here in terms of precipitation, its role in our weather will be to pull colder air in Thursday night and Friday. During this time, an upper low will cross the region, bringing the chance of snow showers, and possibly some heavier snow squalls. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TODAY: Dominant sun followed by a sun \/ cloud mix. Highs 33-40. Wind W 5-15 MPH, gusts 20-30 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TONIGHT: Partly cloudy, then clearing. Lows 22-29. Wind W diminishing to under 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 36-43. Wind W 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TUESDAY NIGHT: Increasing clouds. Lows 25-32 evening followed by a gradual temperature rise overnight. Wind W to SW up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Light rain possible mainly in the morning. A late-day rain shower west of I-95. Highs 42-49. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Chance of a rain shower I-95 belt eastward early. Lows 33-40. Wind W up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THURSDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of a rain shower. Highs 40-47. Wind W to NW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts by late-day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THURSDAY NIGHT: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow showers. Lows 20-27. Wind NW to N 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FRIDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow showers. Highs 28-35. Wind NW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DAYS 6-10 (JANUARY 17-21)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A trough \/ frontal system swings through the region during the January 17-18 period with some precipitation likely. Timing, details, and intensity are to-be-determined, but early leaning is for a non-major, progressive event later Saturday (1\/17) to early Sunday (1\/18). MLK Jr. Day on January 19 looks dry and cold. Late-period we stay cold and watch for the arrival of low pressure with a chance of some snow, but this is out to day 9 and 10 with a lot of uncertainty. A slower evolution would mean that dry weather would continue longer. Will monitor trends here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DAYS 11-15 (JANUARY 22-26)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall colder pattern expected with one or two precipitation chances that would favor frozen over liquid. This is a general outlook with no real way to determine specific outcomes and impacts in our area yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 12-16) Low pressure in Atlantic Canada and high pressure southwest of New England combine to give us a blustery, chilly day to start the week today, but with dry weather with sun and some intervals of clouds.
