It will be a nice day though with lots of sun in general, though it will be filtered by high cloudiness for a good part of the day the further south and southwest you are. We also have some fog patches in valley locations to start the day, but that will quickly dissipate. Coolest air will be along east-facing and north-facing shores today with a light northeasterly air flow. We open September with some unsettled weather as a series of disturbances move through the Northeast on a northwesterly air flow aloft, bringing episodic showers Tuesday (favoring morning-midday) and Wednesday (favoring evening and night), with one final warm front \/ cold front passage with a wavy frontal boundary on Thursday bringing additional shower and thunderstorm chances. On Friday, the mess exits, but upper level low pressure can stick kick off a pop-up shower as cooler air moves in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TODAY: Filtered sun CT, RI, south central MA with brighter sun elsewhere. Any early fog patches vanish. Highs 75-82, coolest coast. Wind NE 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TONIGHT: Clouds increase. Fog patches in valleys. Showers arrive northwest to southeast toward dawn. Lows 60-67. Wind SE up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Showers likely, especially morning to midday before tapering northwest to southeast. Highs 67-74. Wind SE up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TUESDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Areas of fog. Chance of a shower. Lows 58-65. Wind variable to E up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of showers. Patchy fog early. Highs 67-74. Wind variable to E 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Showers likely. Lows 56-63. Wind variable up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THURSDAY: Partly sunny. A shower or thunderstorm possible. Highs 70-77. Wind SW up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THURSDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. A shower possible early, especially southeastern MA and RI. Lows 55-62. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FRIDAY: Sun \/ cloud mix. A pop-up shower possible. Highs 68-75.

Cannot rule out pop-up diurnal showers favoring Saturday and Sunday but with isolated coverage.
