DAYS 1-5 (SEPTEMBER 17-21)…
\nHigh pressure offshore to the east of the region today will send a southerly air flow into the region allowing it to warm up and become slightly more humid. The humidity will become more noticeable later tonight and Sunday as a cold front approaches, bringing lots of clouds and then risk of isolated showers at first. A general area of showers and possible thunderstorms may stay well to the west and northwest of Boston for much of the day then run out of fuel as the front finally comes through the Boston\/Providence areas. The front doesn’t get too far southeast after that and allows additional moisture to come up through the region into Monday. The question is whether or not beneficial rain occurs during this time. Much of that may end up staying offshore to the southeast, but the jury is still out on this. High pressure takes over the weather again for the final two days of astronomical summer on September 20-21, with the warmest day being Tuesday followed by some cooling on Wednesday after a cold font goes through with little or no fanfare.
\nTODAY: Sunshine, filtered at times by high clouds. Highs 70-77. Wind light SE.
\nTONIGHT: Increasing clouds. Lows 54-60. Wind light SE to S.
\nSUNDAY: Mainly cloudy. Episodes of rain showers possible but may favor areas well west and northwest of Boston during the day. Increased chance of more widespread showers at night. More humid. Highs 68-75. Wind S to SW 10-20 MPH.
\nMONDAY: Mostly cloudy. Showers likely, and heaviest may be near Cape Cod and the Islands. Lows 60-68. Highs 70-78.
\nTUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 60-68. Highs 77-85.
\nWEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 50-58. Highs 65-73.<\/p>\n
DAYS 6-10 (SEPTEMBER 22-26)…
\nTiming of systems is a little uncertain during this period but the best call for now is a quick warm-up on September 22, a dry cold front early on September 23 with a cooler day as high pressure tries to move in but stays mostly to the north, then the previous front being an avenue for some cloudiness and perhaps a touch of light rain about September 24 or early September 25 before being pushed back to the south by high pressure and fair weather to end the period.<\/p>\n
DAYS 11-15 (SEPTEMBER 27-OCTOBER 1)…
\n1 or 2 rain chances during this period but the overall pattern will still be fairly mild to warm compared to normal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
