We’ll be stuck in this pattern for a couple more days, through Thursday, as a frontal system oscillates back and forth in the region and areas of moisture move along it from the south. Much of the time the Boston area will be on the cooler side of the front with clouds, periods of rain and drizzle, and a wind off the ocean. For a time on Wednesday to early Thursday this front may push just far enough northwestward to get Metro Boston and at least southeastern MA into the warmer air on the other side. This would just increase the humidity and the chance of thunderstorms, however. Complete clearing is not expected until as last as Friday night, as some trapped low level moisture and instability may hold the clouds in during Friday.<\/p>\n
Hurricane Katia will make its turn to the north and northeast during the next few days, passing between Bermuda and the US East Coast, generally a safe distance from both, but again, as mentioned before, close enough to cause rough surf along the coast later this week. This will result in some minor splashover flooding and dangerous rip currents.<\/p>\n
