Pleasant Weekend On Tap

Partly cloudy skies will gradually become partly sunny this afternoon as an upper level trough travels east.  A brief shower or sprinkle will be possible this afternoon and evening (esp. north and west of Boston).  Highs will be near 70F...60s Cape/Islands.

Watch Melissa's forecast:

This Weekend:  Partly cloudy skies on Saturday with highs in the lower 60s.  Sunday will be mostly sunny with highs in the middle 60s...50s Coast.

Early next week will include chances of rain, but the timing is still slightly uncertain.  Temperatures are a bit tricky too as we need to keep a close eye on the wind direction (onshore or offshore).  The GFSx and the EURO are coming closer to agreement though. They both show a cold front producing showers PM Monday.  This front slips south on Tuesday.  Next Wednesday:  The GFSx shows a surface high protecting southern New England from a low pressure center developing in the deep south.  The GFSx shows a slight chance of showers Wednesday night through Thursday morning.  On the other hand, the EURO shows the low heading towards Southern New England inducing a rainy Wednesday.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Melissa :)
