About to Get More Comfortable...
Dew points were at Summer levels today in the 60s and with a front in the vicinity, that moisture was rung out in the form of showers and storms. Most of the action has moved through with only a couple of reports of small hail and damaging wind but we are still in this soupy air and the front is still to our west so more action is expected until about midnight. Right now the heavy rain and thunder is focused in SE Mass and for the most will remain there...poor drainage flooding can be expected within the downpours.
The front will slide offshore later tonight and drier air will begin filtering in dew points tomorrow will be much better int he 40s and even some upper 30s by the end of the day. The morning will be very sunny but in the afternoon, an upper level disturbance will approach leading to clouds later in the day and maybe even a sprinkle. Highs with an offshore breeze will once again be pretty warm near 70.
A second disturbance will dig into the trough over the weekend cutting the system off to our east. We will be on the periphery of the system but still under it's cyclonic flow and because of that, diurnal cumulus will develop Saturday afternoon ...it will also be a little chillier with highs in the lower 60s.
The cut-off will lift out on Sunday and ridging will take over leading to a lot of sun and warmer temps on Sunday with highs near 70. A sea breeze may be present near the coast holding temps down near the water.
