The sun is finally back, though it’ll briefly disappear this afternoon, but we’ve got more rain coming this week.
Low pressure has finally moved out and high pressure has built in with sunshine and milder temperatures today. Some high clouds will start to move in this afternoon, but shouldn’t have any impact on viewing the eclipse late this afternoon. As the high slides off to the east on Tuesday, winds will become onshore, so despite the fact that we’ll have sunshine through high clouds once again, it’ll be much cooler the closer you get to the coast. For the Red Sox home opener at Fenway, it will be mostly sunny, but temperatures will probably only be in the upper 40s to lower 50s.
Clouds will thicken up Tuesday night and Wednesday as a warm front approaches, with some showers accompanying it late in the day. It may take its time crossing the region, so Wednesday may be another cool day, especially across southern New Hampshire and the Merrimack Valley. We’ll break into the warmer air on Thursday as well as Friday ahead of a slow-moving cold front. Ahead of that front we’re looking at another round of rain, with many places picking up another inch or more between Thursday and Friday, so flooding concerns could return once again. The front moves offshore late Friday, then high pressure builds back in for the weekend though an upper-level low will also be moving in, which could generate a few pop-up showers each afternoon.
