DAYS 1-5 (SEPTEMBER 29-OCTOBER 3)…
\nA big change the next several days from what we have been seeing. I struggled with this forecast because some of the scenarios on the computer models were shown similarly during the dry stretch and of course they did not pan out. But this time at the very least we’re going to be much wetter for the remainder of this week than we were during much of the month of September. First we have a cold front slowly pushing eastward today with scattered showers around, but heavier activity developing tonight as tropical moisture streams north northeastward along the front as it passes.This front will barely get offshore Wednesday and then may eventually come back westward somewhat later in the week. For now it looks like the heaviest rainfall will occur Wednesday with just periods of showers or rain Thursday and Friday. Everything may push westward enough Saturday to take us out of the main rain threat for that day. All the while we’ll be watching Tropical Storm Joaquin which will mill around off the East Coast and eventually start moving northward. Its eventual track is still somewhat in question…
\nTODAY: Areas of fog and drizzle morning. Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers. Humid. Highs in the 70s. Wind S 5-15 MPH.
\nTONIGHT: Cloudy. Showers becoming more likely and locally heavy. Humid. Lows in the 60s. Wind S to SE 5-15 MPH.
\nWEDNESDAY: Cloudy. Widespread showers\/rain, heavy at times. Chance of thunder. Local flooding probable. Areas of fog. Humid. Temperatures steady in the 60s. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
\nTHURSDAY AND FRIDAY: Periods of rain. Lows 45-55. Highs 55-65.
\nSATURDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of shower. Lows in the 50s. Highs 65-75.<\/p>\n
DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 4-8)…
\nBest guess is that Joaquin ends up tracking into the northern Mid Atlantic about Sunday and sending an area of significant rain northward into southern New England along with some wind. The remainder of the period should be drier with temperatures near to above normal<\/p>\n
DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 9-13)…
\nBack to the pattern of below normal precipitation and above normal temperatures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
