Warm and dry

Conditions will remain warm and dry through tomorrow.

Today:  Partly sunny, highs in the low to mid 80s south, upper 70s north.

Tonight:  Partly cloudy, lows in the upper 50s to low 60s south, 40s north.

Tomorrow:  Occasional sun then becoming cloudy in the afternoon, highs in the upper 70s north and south.

Tomorrow night:  Cloudy with the chance of showers, lows in the upper 50s south, low 50s north.

Thursday:  Cloudy with showers likely and the chance of thunderstorms, highs in the 60s.

Discussion:

High pressure will stay in control of our weather through tonight and then an approaching warm front will but a damper on things.  Plenty of sunshine, warm temperatures and low humidity will persist into tomorrow afternoon, so enjoy it while you can.  Clouds will increase during the day tomorrow as the warm front advances closer to the region.  It looks like any shower activity should hold off until tomorrow night.

Once the warm front sets up across New England, our temperatures will cool down considerably.  An easterly wind will see to this.  The front will slowly drift across the region on Wednesday night and Thursday bringing the threat of on and off showers.  Not a steady all day rain, but periodic showers and maybe a couple of thunderstorms.  Eventually the warm front will essentially disappate and then the surface low moves in.  This will keep the threat of wet weather in the forecast through Friday and into the upcoming weekend.  It will not be a washout by any stretch of the imagination, but conditions will be favorable for showers and thunderstorms to develop at any time Thursday through Saturday afternoon.  Sunday looks like the better of the two weekend days at this point.

Thanks for reading!
