We will be watching clouds advancing ahead of an approaching low up the coast Tuesday. Skies will be clouding over with a chance of rain or showers on the Cape by late afternoon and for the coast by evening.
Clouds are locked in for the rest of the day with Light NE winds keeping temps in the Lwr 70's inland and even 60's to near 70 at the coast. Showers inland with drizzle and fog at the coast.
Our wave of low pressure along a stalled front south of New England is slowly pulling off the coast. The heaviest rain is shifting east and will be pulling off the coast after midnight. Showers will still linger through the overnight as another batch in N. New Jersey will skirt through CT & RI over night. Sunday morning will start off damp with the low off the coast of Nantucket with low clouds and drizzle.
Very light winds at the surface today. All this means is a pretty quiet day for many of us with morning hazy sunshine giving way to increasing afternoon clouds with highs in the upper 70's and lwr 80's. Cooler onshore winds will keep it cooler at the coastline with highs in the Lwr-mid 70's. Clouds will hold tough on the Cape all day. But watch out for afternoon T'storms and downpours to develop inland
Hazy sunshine is emerging behind this warm front with warming westerly winds. Highs will quickly be climbing into the upper 80's and Lwr 90's this afternoon. Dewpoints will be very humid in the upper 60's and Lwr 70's. With an approaching cold front this afternoon, there will be enough moisture, lift and instability to trigger scattered afternoon thunderstorms. The area which we have been outlining for the best chance of stronger storms forming or maybe even severe weather is across Eastern MA and RI during the hours of 2-6 PM
We are quickly warming this morning from the 70's into the 80's. Buy midday, some areas will be approaching 90. Sunshine in place this morning will fade this afternoon under thickening clouds in advance of a prefrontal trough which is triggering a few scattered showers/storms in western/central NY. The increasing clouds will help to slow the warming. Hazy sunshine should last at our eastern facing beaches into the early afternoon before turning mostly cloudy. Dewpoints have been rising into the mid 60's and will likely climb to near 70 before the day is through so a typical muggy summer day in July with highs in the upper 80's and lwr 90's.
Skies will become partly sunny this afternoon with light to breezy west winds, highs will climb into the upper 80's and Lwr 90's in most areas. Clouds this morning at the beaches will give way to an afternoon haze. Where clouds linger longer, this will help to keep temps mostly in the 80's.
Temperatures will be quickly climbing into the 80's by midday and lwr 90's inland this afternoon. The hot spot today will be SNH and the Merrimack Valley where highs will be around 92-94 degrees this afternoon
The smoking ban applies to every event held inside the stadium including concerts and other functions.
Today will still be warm and a bit muggy to start. Sunshine with temps climbing into the upper 80's to near 90 in many areas by afternoon.
One more day in the heat and humidity before we get a welcome break in the summer weather and a return to a more seasonal and comfortable airmass. A warm front has pushed off the coast this morning with winds shifting to the SW. Hazy sunshine will help to spike temps into the 80's near 90 by midday.
Temps will be warming up this afternoon inland climbing into the mid 80's for most areas, even nearing 90 in western New England. Weak high pressure will make for wall to wall sunshine through the day with light NW winds. A sea breeze will likely develop at the coast this afternoon to cool temps from the lwr 80's back into the 70's for the second half of the day.
Dewpoints have climbed into the Lwr-mid 60's so there is a muggy feel along with the increasing heat. Temps will be close to yesterday's, but maybe a couple of degrees warmer climbing into the Lwr 90's in most areas. Along with the humidity, this is a day where you need to take moments during the day to stay cool...either by AC, shade, water, or ice cream!
A glorious day across the region with sunshine, light west winds, lowered humidity and temps warming into the mid-upper 80's. Just an incredible beach day which could not happen at a better time.
The clouds extend across all of eastern MA into NH. Meanwhile there is bright sunshine from Worcester west. After a cloudy morning, as the low begins to pull away, I expect some of the drier weather from the west to begin to work eastward eroding the cloud deck with drying NW winds and some increasing afternoon sun. Clouds will likely hold all day across NH, NE MA and right at the eastern Beaches. Where there is sunshine temps will be climbing into the lwr-mid 70's..nearing 80- in Hartford, CT. Where there are clouds...the temps will remain in the 60's
Batches of showers will continue to be directed up into eastern MA for the rest of the day. With cool onshore SE winds...expect highs to remain in the lwr 60's with a bit warmer temps inland in the mid 60's where it will be drier this afternoon in the mid 60's nearing 70 in spots.
