It sounds like a rerun but the overall chilly\/dry pattern of November will maintain itself right through the last few days of the month and into the first hours of December before moderation takes place for the early days of the new month.<\/p>\n
The mostly non-storm (except some bands of moderate snow and accumulation in parts of far southern New England) is in a doddle just offshore but will pull away later today, allowing high pressure to build in for Thursday. A cold front will cross the region from northwest to southeast Thursday night, reinforcing the cold air for Friday.<\/p>\n
As December starts, Saturday & Sunday will feature the approach and passage of a warm front which will bring clouds and eventually moderating temperatures. But with lots of dry air around and not a tremendous moisture punch with the front, precipitation will be scarce at best, and for now is being excluded from the forecast which follows this discussion.<\/p>\n
Looking ahead into early next week, following the guidance of the European computer model which shows a bit more up and down temperature swings versus a mild spell. It still looks like a dry pattern even with the swings.<\/p>\n
