DAYS 1-5 (SEPTEMBER 10-14)…
\nA bit of weather action during this period, but we will squeeze a nice day or 2 in as well. A slow-moving cold front is settling into coastal southeastern New England this morning and will hang around as a wave of low pressure forms on it to the south of New England and then moves north northeastward through Friday. This system will supply fairly significant rainfall for a good portion of the region on the order of 1 to 2 inches with locally heavier amounts possible. Though it is impossible to pinpoint the location and timing of the heaviest rainfall at the time of the writing of this blog, we can track it in the comments section below. It does seem most likely that the best chance for heavier activity will be from Thursday evening through early Friday morning. Of course there will be particular attention paid to the weather in Foxboro MA as the Patriots host the Steelers in the season opener, along with the banner ceremony for last season’s Super Bowl victory. Some downpours may very possibly impact the ceremony and the game. Drier air will move in during Friday afternoon and into Saturday, but another trough will approach from the west, igniting a second low pressure wave on the frontal system still near the Northeast and Mid Atlantic coast, and this will likely deliver more showers to the region by Sunday, departing Monday.
\nTODAY: Mainly cloudy. Isolated to scattered showers and a slight chance of downpours\/thunderstorms. Muggy. Highs in the 70s. Wind variable becoming mostly NE to E around 10 MPH.
\nTONIGHT: Cloudy. Areas of fog. Showers likely including downpours and a chance of thunderstorms. Humid. Lows in the 60s. Wind E to NE 5-15 MPH.
\nFRIDAY: Mostly cloudy morning with showers tapering off west to east. Partly sunny in the afternoon. Slowly lowering humidity. Highs in the 70s. Wind NE to N 5-15 MPH.
\nSATURDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows middle 50s to lower 60s. Highs middle 70s to lower 80s.
\nSUNDAY: Mostly cloudy. Episodes of showers. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 70s.
\nMONDAY: Variably cloudy. Isolated showers. Lows upper 50s to lower 60s. Highs in the 70s.<\/p>\n
DAYS 6-10 (SEPTEMBER 15-19)…
\nOther than a weak disturbance possibly causing a few showers later in the period, it looks like we’ll be dominated by high pressure and temperatures generally above normal for the middle of September.<\/p>\n
DAYS 11-15 (SEPTEMBER 20-24)…
\nStill not seeing any major pattern changes with generally warmer and drier than normal conditions as high pressure remains the dominant player. Will have to watch for a couple disturbances from the southwest as the jet stream will be nearby. There may also be a disturbance in the western Atlantic to keep an eye on, but this is far from certain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
