DAYS 1-5 (MAY 6-10)
\nUpper level low pressure will spin over the northeastern USA for the entirety of this period, but despite some weather apps telling you that we were in for days upon days of rain, we are not. We had some significant rainfall on Friday as the surface system associated with the upper low moved across the region, and now we will see varying weather during this period, caused by a blocking pattern – when weather systems move very little or stay nearly stationary for a period of time. But even when you are in the low pressure region of one of these patterns, you can still get episodes of good weather when areas of drier air move into your region. In this case, the low pressure area being centered a little more to the west this weekend will allow it to be fairly mild, and part of the weekend will feature some sun too. A shift east and southeast of the upper low early next week will result in cooler weather, but still unsettled with several opportunities for showers. To time these opportunities is difficult, so will leave it as a more general idea and fine-tune with each update.
\nTODAY: Overcast through midday with areas of fog dissipating. Mostly cloudy afternoon with best chance of intervals of sunshine southwest of Boston. Steadiest rain over southeastern MA into mid morning, otherwise episodes of scattered showers and brief downpours possible anywhere, but favoring RI, eastern MA, and southeastern NH. Highs 58-63 South Coast, 64-69 elsewhere. Wind S 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
\nTONIGHT: Variably cloudy. Passing showers possible. Lows 47-54. Wind S 5-15 MPH
\nSUNDAY: Partly to mostly sunny morning through early afternoon. Partly to mostly cloudy mid afternoon on. Showers likely over Cape Cod and a few scattered showers mainly west of Boston late in the day. Highs 58-66, coolest South Coast. Wind S 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
\nSUNDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers. Lows 45-52. Wind SW under 10 MPH.
\nMONDAY: Variably cloudy. Isolated to scattered showers. Highs 55-62. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
\nTUESDAY & WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Daily risk of showers. Lows 45-52. Highs 55-62.<\/p>\n
DAYS 6-10 (MAY 11-15)
\nElongation of the upper low early in the period and then another slightly more progressive upper low later in the period will likely keep it on the unsettled side with temperatures near to mostly below normal for this period.<\/p>\n
DAYS 11-15 (MAY 16-20)
\nLow confidence forecast but looks like a transition to a more progressive pattern may try to get underway meaning weather systems move along and some warmer air will also return.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
