Meteorological Summer starts today (as does Hurricane Season), but it’s still astronomical Spring, and today will feel like it.

An upper-level low pressure system will remain in place across the Northeast for a couple more days, keeping temperatures on the cooler side of where they should be at this time of year. A few lingering showers are possible this morning as a surface low pressure area pulls away, with some clearing in the afternoon. Tuesday will start off with some sunshine, but clouds will quickly develop during the morning, with a few widely scattered showers or thunderstorms during the afternoon. High pressure then builds in with dry and warmer weather for Wednesday through Friday. We do need to keep an eye on a developing ocean storm, but at this point, it looks to remain too far offshore to have any impacts here. By Saturday, we’ll be watching a cold front starting to approach the region. That front may bring some showers and cooler conditions for Saturday night and Sunday, but the exact timing of both the front and the showers is still a bit of a question that we hope to have a better handle on when it is time for our Weekend Outlook on Thursday.
