Skies will be partly cloudy late in the afternoon as a 500H trough sweeps across southern New England.
Watch Melissa's forecast:
This will be the culprit for the diurnal cumulus clouds and potentially a brief shower or sprinkle for our north and west suburbs.
Highs will be in 77F-82F range.
Tuesday and Wednesday will be gorgeous late-summer days.
The sun will shine and high temperatures will go from the upper 70s on Tuesday to the lower 80s on Wednesday.
Thursday's afternoon and evening storms will be the result of a cold front plowing through the region.
Ahead of the front, the air will be very warm and humid. Highs will be in the middle to upper 80s.
We will end the week on a sunny note!
**1st Hurricane of the Atlantic Hurricane Season 2011**
Hurricane Irene is still in the Caribbean hovering around Puerto Rico and heading towards the Dominican Republic.
Irene is forecast to make landfall as a Cat 1 hurricane on the southeastern tip of Floriday late Thursday.
The current models show us in the path of the remnants of Irene late this weekend/early next week.
We'd be affected by heavy rain and high winds. We will continue to update you.
Melissa :)
