A flow of air off the Atlantic has kept us cool, cloudy, and drizzly much of the day and this will keep big thunderstorms from firing up and moving into the region this evening, as they may very well have done if we were not in this air mass. Showers should hold off in most locations of eastern MA until after 10PM. Before then, there will be some areas of fog and drizzle, under an overcast sky.<\/p>\n
What’s up this weekend? I think we try to break out a little on Saturday but any sun that does burn through the clouds would just destabilize the atmosphere and allow showers and storms to fire up. Also, a couple fronts and troughs moving through will provide lift for shower activity even without sun. I don’t expect a washout, but not the best day. By Sunday, high pressure building overhead should allow for more sunshine and warmer air.<\/p>\n
