Heading into the Weekend...
We are now heading into the weekend after completing one of the better days of the month but unfortunately we are going to be starting the new month on an unsettled note. A large upper level storm system is swirling into the Northeast, along it's periphery is a coldfront that is now located in Western New England and producing some very heavy downpours and thunderstorms. Along this front a wave of low pressure is developing and will spin over Southern New England tomorrow...this will focus showers over the area especially in the morning. Along with the low, a warmfront will work in too...this will likely progress up to about Boston. As it works north, warmer air will work into SE Mass and sunshine will break out especially for locals south of Boston. North of the city clouds and some showers will continue. There is also the risk for a thunderstorm to pop-up in the sunshine over SE Mass later in the day. But on a whole, the afternoon will be drier than the morning.
On Sunday, the upper level low will still be located to our west and this will effectively pull the surface low back to the west and therefore take with it much of the wet weather too. Clouds will be around but so will some sunshine and temps will reach the mid to upper 60s.
Early next week, the upper level system will work east, sitting over the Northeast for a couple of day so Monday and Tuesday will be unsettled again. But once the low departs, high pressure will work in behind it and give us a wonderful stretch of Autumn weather later in the week, leading into Columbus Day weekend.
