Finally!

Our weather is finally turning around, for the time being, enjoy it while it's here.

Today:  Lots of sunshine, highs in the mid and upper 70s inland, near 70 along the coast.

Tonight:  Mainly clear, lows in the low to mid 50s south, 40s north.

Tomorrow:  Partly sunny, slight chance of a shower or thunderstorm, especially in Western New England, highs near 80 south, mid 70s north.

Tomorrow night:  Partly cloudy, lows in the low 60s south, 50s north.

Friday:  Partly sunny, again the slight chance of a shower or thunderstorm inland, highs in the lower 80s south, 70s north.

Discussion: 

After the cold front moved through last night, we are going to be clear of any drizzle, fog and mist for at least a week.  We are in between storm systems today and this is going to be provide pleasant conditions to the region.  Inland areas of New England will have the best weather today.  A seabreeze will develop along coastal sections which will keep temperatures from getting too warm this afternoon.

As we head into the day tomorrow, another storm system will be moving closer.  However, it never really moves into New England.  The low pressure system will move off to the north and west of New England into Quebec and then will stay there for a few days.  This is a pretty good spot for a low to set up shop.  In this position our winds will stay out of the south and west, which is a warm wind.  The downside to the low being there will be some instability in the atmosphere.  Fortunately, it doesn't look like a washout any day over the next 6 days or so.

This low will introduce the chance, generally less than 40%, of showers and thunderstorms developing with the heating of the day.  This starts tomorrow and will really only be a problem for the interior of New England.  Western MA, VT, Central and Northern New Hampshire will have the highest chances of seeing showers and storms.  Overall our weather will be quite nice right through the upcoming holiday weekend!

Thanks for reading!
