Weekly Outlook: May 23-30, 2022

Memorial Day Weekend is the traditional start of summer, but after our summer preview this past weekend, hot weather will go away for a little while.

High pressure builds in for the first half of the week, with generally dry and seasonably mild conditions expected through Wednesday. By Thursday, the high slides offshore, and low pressure heads toward the Great Lakes, sending a warm front our way. That will mean a return to warmer and more humid conditions by late in the day, along with the chance for a few showers. As that system heads into southeastern Canada, it will drag a cold front across the region, with more showers and possibly some thunderstorms on Friday. There’s at least one model that tries to slow down the front, with showers lingering into Saturday, and it’s possible, but we’re not leaning that way at this time. High pressure then builds in for Sunday and Memorial Day with dry and seasonably warm conditions returning.
