What a Weekend!
We are heading into another fabulous weekend with very dry air, lots of sunshine and for the most part warm temperatures. The pattern remains clogged up so we will luck out with an area of high pressure anchored just off the New England coast. This will keep several gale centers to our south for a few days and any fronts working in from the west at bay. With the high centered just offshore this will create some large temp contrasts in the afternoons over the next couple of days. With the air very dry, we will all warm up as a group nicely through the mornings. But with a light gradient, and the land warmer than the ocean, seabreezes will develop and in the afternoon coastal towns will head in the opposite direction from inland towns. Interior expect temps to climb close to 80 degrees on Saturday but after a near 70 degree high in Boston, the temp will fall through the 60s for the remainder of the afternoon. The same thing will happen on Sunday except that the interior will be even warmer...mid 80s! So, even though it will look like good beach weather...it's going to be chilly there so make sure you bring a sweatshirt.
Moisture from one of those gale centers off the Mid-Atlantic will meander north on Monday and spread clouds back in along with showers too. The surface low will spin away on Tuesday but much of that day we will be under it's cyclonic flow resulting in cool and damp conditions. After that, muggy air will work northward into New England again and with another slow-moving shortwave trough in the vicinity showers and thunderstorms will likely pop-up during the heating of the days middle of next week.
Have a great weekend all...
