DAYS 1-5 (DECEMBER 3-7)
\nThe transitional pattern is ahead of schedule and nearly complete and the expected turn to a predominately colder\/drier pattern arrives this week, but not before a start to the week that will hold both a reminder of recent weather, as the early hours of Monday are damp and grey, and a brief treat as the day turns out quite nice before the cold front arrives that introduces the feel of the upcoming pattern. After this, the polar jet stream becomes the dominant steering influence for systems impacting southeastern New England weather this week, keeping a southern jet stream system well to the south at midweek. Our precipitation threats will be minimal this week, being in the form of patchy drizzle to start today, a possible rain shower a couple times during today, and possible snow showers with a late-week trough.
