DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 28 \u2013 MAY 2)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
High pressure remains over our region today. It’s center is slightly to the north, and the wind field is weak, and this allows for the development of a more pronounced easterly wind across the region. The start of this process is evident by a dissipating band of stratus clouds that made it into eastern coastal areas to start the day today but this will give way to dry air and dissipate. As the day goes on we’ll see some high and mid level clouds move in from the west with a slowly approaching trough from that direction, being slowed by our ongoing blocking pattern with low pressure to our east and high pressure near Greenland. Surface high pressure does finally make it off to the east Wednesday at the same time the offshore low is trying to send additional low level moisture back or way and the trough from the west gets closer as well. This will result in a convergence of cloud cover with low clouds increasing from the east as high and mid level clouds increase from the west, resulting in the transition to cloudy conditions during Wednesday. Currently, I expect an offshore trough associated with the ocean low to keep its showers off the coast. What we won’t miss is an area of rain that comes in with the western system Wednesday night through midday Thursday, before that system, a redeveloping low, lifts slowly north and east of our region, tapering the rain off to just a few showers and patchy drizzle later Thursday. By the time we reach Friday and Saturday (and also the month of May, yay!) we will have upper level low pressure sitting over our region. This will promote cool weather and a daily chance of pop-up showers, though most of the time will be rain-free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (MAY 3-7)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Blocking pattern with upper trough over the Northeast, meaning below normal temperatures and occasionally unsettled weather, but dry most of the time. This pattern may relax briefly to allow warming toward the end of the period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (MAY 8-12)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Similar overall pattern returns after a potential brief warmer interlude. Wet weather chances may increase, but that remains uncertain of that this far in advance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
