SW winds continue to pump oppressive humidity into New England with dewpoints again ranging from 70-76 degrees. Hazy sun and clouds are warming temps up again into the 80's, with the potential for a few Lwr 90's this afternoon. I do not expect the kind of heat we had yesterday due to a few more clouds. Plus a welcome breeze today will pick up this afternoon with gusts over 20 mph to help to stir the stagnant air and make the day more tolerable.
Clouds will be breaking with some partial sun developing Wednesday with SW wind. High will climb to near 80-85. A muggy feel with dewpoints in the 60's. An approaching cold front will push in during the afternoon. There will be enough instability that building cumulus may be able pop a few scattered showers and thunderstorms along this front in the afternoon, primarily in northern and western New england during the later part of the day.
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
The Storms Prediction Center has put much of southwestern New England in a moderate risk category for severe weather. Unfortunately, an isolated tornado cannot be ruled out later today.
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.
We are at the very start of what promises to be one of the longest stretches of hot and humid weather of the summer.
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
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.
Anyone with outdoor plans today should keep the storm threat in the back of their mind, no matter where you are in New England.
Some of these showers could briefly be heavy and while the timing is not indicative of producing any severe weather, it cannot be ruled out.
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.
The big question on everyone's mind - will the weather cooperate? The short answer is, for the most part, yes.
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!
It is going to feel a lot more like summer around here this weekend. Friday will also be the most uncomfortable day of the stretch with humidity levels at their highest.
