The gate to summer is about to be opened as a warm front crosses the region tonight and Wednesday, bringing a few episodes of showers and thunderstorms, and high pressure ridging overtakes the Northeast Thursday into the weekend with a westerly flow and hotter weather. Humidity will be up at first but may come down during the middle of the hot stretch due to a drying westerly wind. It should return again by Sunday as a cold front approaches from the north northwest, bringing a renewed risk of showers and thunderstorms. This front may be slow to clear the region early\u00a0 next week with more unsettled weather Monday being replaced with drier and cooler weather by Tuesday.<\/p>\n
