DAYS 1-5 (MAY 29-JUNE 2)…
\nThe mid summer feel of May 28 is a memory in just about all of the region as a back-door cold front pushed this all out and replaced it with cooler air and low cloudiness. The exception is that the cloudiness has not really gotten to the South Coast of New England and much of southwestern MA and most of CT, where there has been sunshine this morning. These are the locations, especially CT and western MA, that may see pop up showers and thunderstorms this afternoon as the sun will be allowed to work on the still-warm air mass in place there. These showers and storms would die out as they tried to move northeastward later in the day, destroyed by the marine-stabilized air in place over the remainder of the region. My idea for Monday, which is still looking unsettled, is not for a washout but for episodes of wet weather. My best guess is that one area of showers and embedded thunderstorms crosses much of the region in the pre-dawn hours and pulls out around or shortly after dawn, leaving the region with just a few showers and some breaks in the clouds during most of the Memorial Day ceremonies. Again this will depend on location and the timing is very tricky, so it would probably be wise to plan for the worst if you will be outside, the worst being showers and downpours. Another area of rain and possible thunder may be more aimed for CT, RI, and southeastern MA later morning or early afternoon, and if things work out just right, much of the region may be rain-free in the afternoon. We’ll have to watch for the approach of showers and thunderstorms from the west late in the day that originate in NY, but they may never make it beyond western and possibly central MA and CT. High pressure noses in Tuesday and will try to hang on through midweek, though we have to watch some low pressure to the south, one center which will likely be the remains of Bonnie, should it come closer than I currently expect. Though Tuesday will be quite warm, a cooling trend will follow this.
\nTODAY: Low overcast morning except sunshine in far southern MA including Cape Cod as well as southern RI. Partial sun developing in the overcast areas this afternoon. Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms most likely over interior areas of MA by mid to late afternoon dissipating this evening. Highs 60s shoreline, 70s to lower 80s interior with warmest far inland. Wind NE 5-15 MPH near the coast this morning otherwise light and variable.
\nTONIGHT: Partly to mostly cloudy. Patchy fog. Showers and thunderstorms probable between midnight and dawn. Lows in the 60s. Wind light variable.
\nMONDAY – MEMORIAL DAY: Variably cloudy. A couple episodes of showers and embedded thunderstorms during the day. Humid. Highs upper 60s Cape Cod to lower 80s some interior areas. Wind variable mainly SE to SW 5-15 MPH.
\nTUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 60s. Highs in the 80s.
\nWEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows in the 50s. Highs in the 70s.
