Weekly Outlook: July 15-21, 2024

Hot and humid weather continues for the first half of the week, but some relief is on the way.

Heat Advisories are in effect for a large portion of the region into Wednesday. Images provided by the National Weather Service in Norton.

A Bermuda High remains anchored offshore, with southwest winds around the high continuing to pump hot and humid weather into the region into Wednesday. Daytime highs will likely top 90 away from the South Coast, and when the humidity is factored in, it will feel like it is near or over 100 degrees during the hottest part of the afternoon. Heat Advisories have been posted for the region as a result. Try to stay indoors if you can, and take precautions if you will be outside, including wearing sunscreen, seeking shade as much as possible, and drinking plenty of liquids. A few showers and thunderstorms are possible this afternoon and again Tuesday afternoon as a pair of weak disturbances cross the region, but these will likely not be that widespread. If you do get caught under one, heavy downpours and gusty winds are the biggest threats.

A cold front will move in on Wednesday, with more widespread showers and thunderstorms along and ahead of it Wednesday afternoon and night. Some of the storms could be quite strong, with strong winds and heavy downpours the main threats once again. Once the front moves through at night, much drier air settles in for the end of the week and the weekend. Instead of dewpoints in the upper 60s and 70s, we’ll see dewpoints in the 50s, maybe even upper 40s, and air temperatures will be in the 80s during the day, and 60s possibly upper 50s at night, so you’ll be able to give the air conditioner a break and open the windows. We may start to warm up again by the end of the weekend as high pressure slides offshore.

Monday: Some patchy fog early, otherwise sunshine and some afternoon clouds, chance for an afternoon shower or thunderstorm. High 89-96, cooler along the South Coast and Cape Cod.

Monday night: Any showers or storms end in the evening, otherwise partly cloudy. Low 68-75.

Tuesday: Partly to mostly sunny, a late-day shower or thunderstorm possible. High 90-97, cooler along the South Coast and Cape Cod.

Tuesday night: Partly cloudy, any showers or storms end in the evening. Low 69-76.

Wednesday: Partly sunny, showers and thunderstorms likely late in the day and into the night. High 89-96, cooler along the South Coast and Cape Cod.

Thursday: A mix of sun and clouds, not as humid. High 80-87.

Friday: Mostly sunny. High 79-86, cooler along the coast.

Saturday: Partly sunny. High 81-88.

Sunday: A mix of sun and clouds. High 82-89.

Weekend Outlook: June 21-24, 2024

The heat will relent for the weekend, but the humidity will take a bit longer.

Friday afternoon temperatures will be 15-25 cooler than this afternoon across the region. Image provided by Pivotal Weather.

Today will be the last hot and humid day for a bit across the region, with some strong to severe thunderstorms bringing an end to the heat this afternoon and evening. The main threats with these storms are heavy downpours and gusty winds. Tonight will remain warm, but a backdoor cold front moves through on Friday, ushing much cooler air in, as winds shift into the northeast, and blow in over the still relatively cool Atlantic. Highs on Friday will only be in the 70s and 80s, warmest near the South Coast, where we’ll still get warm in the morning before the front moves through. Dewpoints will drop a bit, but will likely remain in the 60s, so it’ll be on the humid side still. Some showers are likely ahead of the front as well. The front stalls out near or just south of the region on Saturday, resulting in a rather comfortable day, but with a decent amount of clouds. On Sunday, that front will try to lift northward as a warm front once again, bringing the very warm and humid air back in. However, a disturbance moving in from the west will likely help to produce some showers and thunderstorms during the afternoon and evening. A cold front moves through on Monday, with warm, humid conditions ahead of it in the morning, along with more showers and thunderstorms, then cooler and drier air starts to move in by late in the day behind the front.

Dewpoints remain fairly high through the weekend, then finally start to drop late Monday. Loop provided by WeatherBell.

Thursday night: Showers and thunderstorms ending shortly after sunset, remaining partly to mostly cloudy overnight. Low 65-72.

Friday: Partly sunny with some showers likely. High 82-89 in the morning, turning cooler in the afternoon.

Friday night: Mostly cloudy, a few additional showers, mainly during the evening. Low 61-68.

Saturday: More clouds than sun, a few showers possible. High 77-84, a little cooler along the coast, especially the North Shore and NH Seacoast.

Saturday night: Mostly cloudy, chance for a shower. Low 60-67.

Sunday: Intervals of clouds and sun, breezy, showers and thunderstorms possible late in the day. High 83-90, cooler across the South Coast and Cape Cod.

Sunday night: Partly to mostly cloudy, showers taper off during the evening. Low 65-72.

Monday: A mix of sun and clouds, some showers around during the morning. High 79-86, a little cooler across Cape Cod.

Weekly Outlook: June 17-23, 2024

Ready or not, the first heat wave of the summer is on the way later this week.

A warm front will cross the region today with just some clouds accompanying it, but little to no precipitation. Behind it, south to southwest winds will usher warmer and more humid air in, and it will remain in place for a good chunk of the week. High pressure building in both at the surface and aloft will result in partly to mostly sunny skies with hot and humid conditions from Tuesday into at least Thursday. The south winds will keep the South Coast and Cape Cod cooler, only in the 80s or even upper 70s, but inland temperatures will get well into the 90s, but when you factor in the humidity, it will feel like 95-105 degrees during the hottest part of the day each afternoon. Air temperatures could approach 100 both Wednesday and Thursday afternoon, especially from MetroWest into the Merrimack Valley, with some records possible. Excessive Heat Watches and Heat Advisories are already in effect for parts of the region from Tuesday afternoon into Friday evening. A few showers and thunderstorms may pop up each afternoon, especially Thursday, but they will be widely scattered, and only provide some relief in a few spots.

Thursday is looking like the hottest day in quite some time across the region. Image provided by WeatherBell.

By the end of the week, a cold will start to drop down from the north, bringing more widespread showers and thunderstorms along with cooler weather, but when it moves through is still a question mark. Some models bring it down on Friday, have it lift back northward later Saturday, others have it move through on Friday, then not come back until early in the following week. This will obviously have a big impact on the temperature forecast, especially for the weekend. Some showers will likely accompany this front as waves of low pressure ride along it, but timing them is a fool’s errand at this point, because we’re not even sure yet when the front will move through.

Not all of the models have cooler air move in for Saturday. Images provided by Pivotal Weather.

Monday: A mix of sun and clouds, breezy during the afternoon. High 78-85, a little cooler near the South Coast.

Monday night: Clear to partly cloudy. Low 61-68.

Tuesday: Partly to mostly sunny. High 90-97, except 82-89 near the South Coast and 74-81 across the Cape and Islands.

Tuesday night: Clear to partly cloudy. Low 64-71.

Wednesday: Sunshine and a few clouds. High 93-100, except 85-92 near the South Coast and 77-84 across the Cape and Islands.

Thursday: Partly sunny. High 95-102, except 87-94 near the South Coast and 79-86 across the Cape and Islands.

Friday: Intervals of clouds and sun with some showers and thunderstorms possible. High 90-97, except 82-89 near the coast.

Saturday: Partly sunny, chance for an afternoon shower or thunderstorm. High 84-91, cooler near the coast.

Sunday: Intervals of clouds and sun, showers and thunderstorms possible. High 80-87, cooler near the coast.

Weekend Outlook: February 9-12, 2024

Milder weather is on the way for the upcoming weekend.

Temperatures could be very mild around here on Saturday. Image provided by WeatherBell,

We finally got some sunshine over the past several days, but unfortunately, there are more clouds on the way. They’ll spread across the region tonight as low pressure moving into the Great Lakes sends a warm front our way. There could be a stray rain or snow shower accompanying the warm front, but they’ll be few and far between. We’ll see some sunshine return on Friday along with milder temperatures, with highs getting well into the 40s. Clouds come back Friday night and much of Saturday, but south to southwest winds will result in a very mild day for Saturday. High temperatures should get well into the 50s away from the coastline, with some places possibly topping 60. Along the coast, especially south-facing shorelines, we’ll have a seabreeze (yes, in February), keeping temperatures in the 40s, which is still well above normal. A cold front moves through late in the day, bringing some showers with it. High pressure builds in behind the front for Sunday, but the air isn’t that much colder. Most of us will still be in the 40s, with a few spots possibly reaching 50 again. Clouds stream back in Sunday night and Monday as low pressure heads toward the Mid-Atlantic states. The hype train left the station yesterday for this storm, as several computer models showed the potential for a sizeable snowstorm Monday night and Tuesday. Well, the models all continue to shift, and range from a moderate snowstorm, to a snow to rain situation, to a complete miss to the south. It’s still several days away, so things will continue to change, and if it does become a threat, we’ll go into more detail on our Weekly Outlook early Monday morning. For now, don’t believe the hype and don’t get too worked up about it.

Snow? Rain? Both? None? The models don’t agree on the storm threat for Tuesday right now. Images provided by Pivotal Weather.

Thursday night: Clear skies through the evening, clouds move in overnight, slight chance for a sprinkle or flurry. Low 25-32.

Friday: Morning clouds, becoming partly sunny in the afternoon, a little breezy at times. High 42-49.

Friday night: Becoming partly to mostly cloudy. Low 32-39.

Saturday: Partly to mostly cloudy with some showers likely during the afternoon and evening. High 52-59, cooler along south-facing shorelines.

Saturday night: Any lingering showers end during the evening, some clearing possible late at night. Low 35-42.

Sunday: A mix of sun and clouds, breezy. High 44-51.

Sunday night: Partly cloudy. Low 27-34.

Monday: Becoming mostly cloudy, chance for some snow or rain towards evening. High 40-47.

Weekly Outlook: January 15-21, 2024

It took until mid-January, but this week will finally feel like winter around here.

Temperatures will be well below normal this week. Image provided by WeatherBell.

The week starts off with high pressure providing the region with sunshine and chilly temperatures. Low pressure will start to organize across the Southeast and begin heading up the East Coast, spreading some clouds in during the afternoon and evening. While that system is heading our way, an upper-level disturbance will move toward the region from the Midwest. If these two systems were to come together, we could have quite the snowstorm on our hands…but that’s not going to happen. Instead, we’ll have the coastal low pass well south and east of New England while the upper-level disturbance moves through. The result will be a period of light snow developing toward midday Tuesday, ending before midnight. Most places will pick up 1-3 inches of snow, possibly a little more in spots, possibly a little less across parts of Cape Cod and the Islands where a little rain could mix in.

The models are in pretty good agreement that Tuesday’s storm will produce just a few inches of snow. Images provided by Pivotal Weather.

High pressure builds in behind the system with dry and chilly conditions for Wednesday and Thursday, though not nearly to the magnitude of what they have been experiencing from the Midwest into the Northern Rockies. Clouds start to stream in on Thursday as a scenario similar to Tuesday unfolds. Low pressure passes south and east of New England on Friday while an upper-level low moves in, resulting in another round of light snow. Much like Tuesday, it looks like just a few inches for most places, though we’re not expecting any rain across the Cape and Islands this time. As that system pulls away, Saturday is shaping up to be quite a chilly day with high pressure building in, likely the coldest one so far this winter, with some places struggling to reach 20 degrees in the afternoon. Sunday looks dry as well with high pressure still in control, but not as chilly as Saturday.

Wind chills will likely be below zero across most of the region Saturday morning. Image provided by Weathermodels.com

Monday: Sunny in the morning, clouds start to move in during the afternoon. High 27-34.

Monday night: Becoming cloudy. Low 18-25, temperatures may start to rise after midnight.

Tuesday: Cloudy with light snow likely. High 28-35, possibly warmer across Cape Cod.

Tuesday night: Clearing. Low 14-21.

Wednesday: Sunshine and a few clouds, colder. High 24-31.

Thursday: Increasing clouds, breezy. High 25-32.

Friday: Cloudy and breezy with light snow likely. High 26-33.

Saturday: Partly sunny, windy, and cold. High 17-24.

Sunday: Mostly sunny, breezy. High 21-28.

Weekend Outlook: December 15-18, 2023

This weekend is going to end up very similar to last weekend, dry to start, then very wet to end.

Temperatures will be as much as 10-15 degrees above normal across much of the region on Friday. Image provided by weathermodels.com.

High pressure keeps us dry into Saturday. We’ll start off chilly this evening under clear skies, but as winds shift into the southwest, temperatures will level off toward midnight, and could rise a bit overnight. Friday is about as good a day as we can expect for mid-December with sunshine and above normal temperatures. Clouds start to filter in Friday night and during the day on Saturday as low pressure begins to develop across the Southeast. As that low moves northward, we’ll have plenty of clouds on Sunday, with rain moving in by late afternoon or evening. The rain will likely be heavy Sunday night into Monday morning, with some gusty south winds bringing unseasonably mild air back in, with temperatures making a run at 60 in some spots. Monday is where the models start to diverge. Some of them bring the storm well to our west (central or western NY), some a little closer (western MA). Overall, this doesn’t make too much of a difference at this point, but the eastern track would likely mean the rain ends earlier, and the cold front swings through earlier, bringing an end to the mild air. Beyond that, the models rapidly diverge, which has significant impacts on the forecast around here for Tuesday and into midweek, but this forecast only goes through Monday, so we’ll worry about next week in our Weekly Outlook Sunday night.

Thursday night: Clear skies. Low 26-33 during the evening, temperatures may rise a little after midnight.

Friday: Plenty of sunshine, breezy at times, especially through early afternoon. High 45-52.

Friday night: Clear skies during the evening, some clouds start to move in overnight. Low 32-39.

Saturday: Intervals of sunshine and clouds. High 43-50.

Saturday night: Becoming mostly cloudy. Low 29-36.

Sunday: Cloudy and becoming breezy with rain developing late in the day. High 47-54.

Sunday night: Periods of rain, possibly heavy at times, becoming windy. Low 44-51 during the evening, temperatures rise overnight.

Monday: Windy and mild with more rain, tapering off during the afternoon. High 54-61.

Weekly Outlook: September 4-10, 2023

Meteorological summer ended last Thursday. Pumpkin everything has arrived, college football has begun, the NFL starts the regular season this week, kids are back in school, Christmas stuff has even started showing up in stores. Summer is over, right? Astronomical summer doesn’t end until the autumnal equinox, which occurs at 2:49AM on September 23. Mother Nature will remind you this week that it’s still summer.

The forecast for the first half of the week is fairly simple. High pressure will remain in control with sunny days, warm to hot temperatures, coastal seabreezes, and increasing humidity. With the humidity, we’ll also have some patchy fog developing during the next few nights. Temperatures will get well into the 80s during the afternoons, with some spots topping 90, though coastal locations will likely drop into the 70s during the afternoons. The latter half of the week is where things get tricky.

Thursday looks quite toasty away from the coastline. Image provided by WeatherBell.

Thursday is likely to be another very warm to hot and humid day, but clouds will be moving in ahead of an approaching frontal system. Some showers and thunderstorms may move in late in the day, but it is just as likely that Thursday remains rain-free. Showers and thunderstorms look more likely on Friday, but temperatures will be highly dependent on the timing of the front. A frontal passage earlier in the day means cooler temperatures, but a later frontal passage could mean another day with temperatures topping 80. Some models don’t show the front moving through until Saturday, which could mean yet another warm day, but also more showers and thunderstorms. The front may stall out nearby, which means the unsettled weather could even linger into Sunday. With the Patriots set to open their season in Foxborough at 4:25pm next Sunday, fans are hoping for nice weather for the game itself and pregame tailgating.

The quest for a record 7th Lombardi trophy begins on Sunday.

Monday: Patchy morning fog, otherwise sunshine with a few afternoon clouds. High 82-89, cooler along the coast.

Monday night: Partly cloudy, areas of fog develop. Low 61-68.

Tuesday: Becoming mostly sunny. High 84-91, cooler along the coast.

Tuesday night: Clear to partly cloudy, patchy fog possible again. Low 65-72.

Wednesday: Mostly sunny. High 85-92, cooler along the coast.

Thursday: Morning sun, increasing afternoon clouds, showers and thunderstorms possible late in the day. High 87-94, cooler along the coast.

Friday: More clouds than sun with some showers and thunderstorms likely. High 81-88.

Saturday: Partly to mostly cloudy with a chance for more showers and thunderstorms. High 78-85.

Sunday: Intervals of clouds and sun, chance for another shower or two. High 75-82.

Finally, a word about the tropics. There is a tropical wave way out in the Atlantic that is slowly getting better organized. It could become a tropical depression in the next few days. It is at least 5 days away from potentially impacting the islands in the eastern Caribbean, if at all, and assuming it actually develops. There have been a few of the forecast models that have been showing that this storm could be a threat to the East Coast. At this point in time, that is pure hype and nothing else. These same models have done a horrible job forecasting actual tropical systems this season, let alone ones that haven’t even developed yet. Could this system impact the East Coast? Sure, anything is possible, but that’s a minimum of 8-10 days away from even potentially happening. This is not something you should be too concerned about at this point in time. If there is a time to be concerned, we’ll let you know well in advance. For now, ignore the hype.

Weekend Outlook: February 3-6, 2023

Some rather cold air is on the way for the next couple of days, but it’s stay should be rather short.

Saturday morning will be the coldest morning we’ve had around here in several years. Image provided by Weathermodels.com.

A strong cold front will cross the region late tonight, possibly accompanied by a few flurries or snow showers. Behind it, gusty northwest winds will usher some arctic air into the New England. This is likely some of the coldest air we’ve had around in several years, so make sure you are prepared for it if you have to go outside. Temperatures will likely have dropped into the teens and lower 20s by the time most of you get out of bed Friday morning, and they will continue to drop during the day despite sunshine. Temperatures will be in the single numbers by evening, and below zero for near the entire region at night. Wind chills will drop below zero during Friday afternoon, and with northwest winds of 20-30 mph gusting to 40 mph at times, we’ll see wind chills in the -20 to -40 range Friday night and early Saturday. Temperatures bottom out in the -5 to -15 range Saturday morning, but it will remain breezy, so we’ll still be dealing with bitterly cold wind chills in the morning. Winds will diminish during the day on Saturday, but temperatures will only slowly rise. The good news is that high pressure will slide offshore, allowing winds to shift into the south and southwest, so temperatures will start to moderate, likely rising all through the night Saturday night, but we’ll also have some clouds starting to move in as a frontal system begins to approach from the west. By Sunday, temperatures will be above normal again, likely reaching 40 for most of us. A few showers are possible Sunday night as the frontal system moves through and another passes well to the south, then we’ll see some sunshine and mild temperatures again on Monday.

Wind chills will bottom out in the -20 to -40 range before daybreak Saturday. Image provided by WeatherBell.

Thursday night: Partly cloudy, slight chance for a snow shower, breezy. Low 13-20.

Friday: Mostly sunny, windy and turning sharply colder, chance for a few snow showers across the Outer Cape. High 13-20 early, temperatures drop during the day.

Friday night: Clear to partly cloudy, windy, and bitterly cold. Low -6 to -13.

Saturday: Mostly sunny, clouds start to filter in later in the day, breezy in the morning. High 11-18.

Saturday night: Partly to mostly cloudy, becoming breezy again late at night. Low 8-15 during the evening, temperatures rise overnight.

Sunday: Plenty of clouds, windy, and milder. High 39-46.

Sunday night: Mostly cloudy and breezy with a chance for a few showers across Southeastern Massachusetts and Cape Cod. Low 27-34.

Monday: Morning clouds and possibly a few showers in southeastern Massachusetts give way to some afternoon sun, breezy. High 41-48.

Weekly Outlook: January 30 – February 5, 2023

We’re deep into winter, but it hasn’t felt like it much for the past couple of months. That’s about to change, potentially in a big way.

The week starts off mild once again, but a cold front will move across the region later today and tonight. As the front moves through, some rain or snow showers are possible, with a few snow squalls not out of the question. High pressure builds in for Tuesday and Wednesday with drier weather and more seasonable temperatures. This will also help deflect a low pressure off to the south, which may actually bring some snow to the Mid-Atlantic states, though we could see some of the precipitation reach the South Coast. Another system passes south of the region on Thursday, spreading in more clouds, but we’ll also see temperatures start to moderate a bit. This sets the stage for what’s to come at the end of the week.

Some snow squalls are possible as a cold front moves through the region tonight. Loop provided by WeatherBell.

A strong cold front will cross the region Friday morning as a rather large high pressure system settles into southern Ontario. Behind the front, the coldest air we’ve seen in several years will pour into the region. Temperatures will likely start the day in the 30s, but will rapidly drop during the afternoon, likely reaching the single digits by evening, and dropping below zero across most of the region overnight. By Saturday morning, temperatures may be as cold as -10 to -15 north and west of Boston, with even colder temperatures possible. But wait, if that’s not cold enough, gusty northwest winds will create wind chills of -20 to -30. Saturday morning might be a good day to skip that morning run, or you’ll probably want to make sure the dog takes care of business quickly. Despite sunshine, temperatures likely stay in the single digits or lower teens during the daytime. As the high slides by to the north, winds may shift into the north or northeast, which could allow for some ocean-effect snow showers to develop across Cape Cod. As the high continues eastward, winds will shift into the southeast and eventually south, bringing a quick end to our arctic blast. Temperatures will continue to rise Saturday night, and should get well into the 30s and even 40s again across the region on Sunday.

No matter which model you look at the wind chills Saturday morning will be ridiculously cold. Images provided by Pivotal Weather.

We should also mention that Thursday is Groundhog Day. Tradition states that if the groundhog sees his shadow, then there will be 6 more weeks of winter. Have we really had winter yet? Not really, so the groundhog probably won’t see his shadow. Of course, if you trust a long-range forecast from a rodent, then can we interest you in investing in some quality swampland in Florida? Sunday however is National Weatherperson’s Day. Obviously, we like that one a little more.

Monday: Intervals of sun and clouds. High 43-50.

Monday night: Partly to mostly cloudy with a few rain or snow showers possible, maybe even some snow squalls that could drop a quick inch in spots. Low 26-33.

Tuesday: Partly sunny. High 31-38.

Tuesday night: Partly to mostly cloudy with a few snow showers possible. Low 14-21.

Wednesday: Sunshine and a few clouds. High 26-33.

Thursday: A mix of sun and clouds, breezy. High 33-40.

Friday: Partly to mostly sunny, windy, and turning sharply colder. High 21-28 in the morning, temperatures plunge in the afternoon.

Saturday: Plenty of sunshine, breezy, and bitterly cold, except for a few snow showers possible on Cape Cod. Morning low -1 to -8 south of the Mass Pike, -9 to -16 north of the Pike. High 6-13 during the evening.

Sunday: Mostly cloudy, windy, milder, chance for some snow or rain showers. High 35-42.

Weekend Outlook: November 11-14, 2022

Tropical Storm Nicole is crossing Florida and the Dakotas are in the midst of a blizzard. Both of these systems will have an impact on our weather over the next few days.

High pressure continues to push offshore tonight resulting in mild weather continuing into Saturday. The system producing the blizzard in the Dakotas will head into southern Canada, but a strong cold front trails that storm and it will march eastward over the next couple of days. At the same time, what’s left of Nicole will head up the Appalachians, eventually becoming absorbed by the front. We’ll see clouds start to stream in ahead of these systems tonight, but any rainfall likely holds off until late Friday afternoon, resulting in a cloudy but mild Veteran’s Day, with temperatures approaching 70 in many locations. A period of steady and potentially heavy rain is likely Friday night into Saturday morning, but the heaviest of the rain should stay to our north and west. Given that this air is of tropical origins, some rumbles of thunder are possible. The rain will also be accompanied by some gusty winds. The front moves through around midday and the rain ends, with skies starting to clear out in the afternoon. It will be another warm day, with temperatures near or above 70 once again. Clouds hang around for Saturday night and a good portion of Sunday as an upper-level trough crosses the region. Could there be a stray shower or two early Sunday? It’s possible, but they’ll be few and far between. We’ll clear out later Sunday and into Monday as high pressure builds in with much cooler air. In fact, temperatures look to be below normal for a good chunk of next week. There’s even, dare we say it, the potential for a few flakes around here with a system toward mid-week. We’ll touch on that more in our Weekly Outlook early Monday.

Temperatures Sunday morning will be 20-25 degrees cooler than they were at the same time Saturday morning. Image provided by WeatherBell.

Thursday night: Increasing clouds. Low 47-54.

Friday: Becoming cloudy, showers developing late in the day. High 64-71.

Friday night: Windy with periods of rain, possibly heavy at times, some thunder is also possible. Low 57-64 during the evening, temperatures may rise a few degrees overnight.

Saturday: Rain tapers off and ends during the morning, some sunshine develops in the afternoon, breezy. High 66-73.

Saturday night: Partly to mostly cloudy, slight chance for a late-night shower. Low 41-48.

Sunday: Plenty of clouds with a shower possible in the morning, skies start to clear out during the afternoon, much cooler. High 49-56.

Sunday night: Clear and chilly. Low 29-36.

Monday: Plenty of sunshine, but quite cool. High 41-48.
