We are Cruising Now...

Highs in the low to mid 80s with dewpoints in the 50s...I'll take that every day of the Summer...what a beauty!  Tomorrow should be very similar, lots of sun highs in the lower 80s and a few cumulus clouds dotting the sky in the afternoon.  Those clouds will form in response to a cool pool of air centered over Southern Canada...this will create a somewhat unstable airmass in the afternoons when we see some daytime heating.  On Friday, those clouds will have some depth to them and with a vortmax spinning around the base of the cool pool of air a few showers will be possible in the afternoon especially over higher elevations.  The showers will be passing ones so they won't last long but they could be briefly heavy when they pulse.

The upper level trough lifts out for the weekend, heights rise and so do the temps.  Highs should reach the mid to upper 80s on Saturday and with the warm air working in aloft a nice cap will be present and therefore T-storm free!  Sunday should end up being the warmest of the three day holiday weekend with highs near 90...the problem is a surface front will be in the region and will likely provide enough lift for scattered strong thunderstorms later in the day and evening.  That front will clear the coast by Monday morning setting up a classic Summer 4th of July here in Southern New England...high of 88 slightly less humid than Sunday and for the time being no thunderstorms will form.
