If you’re on vacation, you’ve got a nearly perfect weekend coming up.

For the most part, we’ve got dry weather through the early to middle of next week thanks to high pressure, but it’s a little more complicated than that. We’ll see a little fog developing tonight, but once it burns off, we’ll enjoy a warm day. A weak boundary dropping southward could trigger a stray shower or thunderstorm, favoring areas from northeastern Massachusetts into southern New Hampshire, but we’re not expecting any widespread showers. Fog may redevelop Friday night, then high pressure builds back in for the weekend with slightly cooler conditions as winds shift into the north. By Monday, the high will move offshore, winds will become southwesterly once again, and we’ll start to warm back up.

Thursday night: Partly cloudy, areas of fog develop. Low 53-60.

Friday: Mostly sunny, slight chance for a late-day shower or thunderstorm, mainly from northeastern Massachusetts into southern New Hampshire. High 79-86, little cooler near the South Coast and Cape Cod.

Friday night: Clear to partly cloudy, patchy fog may redevelop. Low 55-62.

Saturday: Sunshine and a few clouds. High 76-83, coolest along the coast.

Saturday night: Clear to partly cloudy, a little patchy fog possible again. Low 54-61.

Sunday: Plenty of sunshine. High 74-81, coolest along the coast.

Sunday night: Clear to partly cloudy. Low 51-58.

Monday: More sunshine. High 78-85, little cooler near the South Coast and Cape Cod.

Most of the upcoming weekend will feature some rather nice weather for early September.

High pressure will move off to the east over the next few days, with dry weather continuing into a good chunk of Saturday. Plenty of sunshine is expected on Thursday with warm temperatures, but we’ll see some clouds start to move in on Friday. The clouds will be more numerous on Saturday as a frontal system moves in from the west and low pressure passes well offshore. Saturday looks to remain dry, with showers likely holding off until evening. Showers continue Saturday night, ending early Sunday as the cold front moves through, with clearing developing in the afternoon. High pressure returns on Monday with sunshine and cooler temperatures.

Wednesday night: Clear skies. Low 50-57.

Thursday: Plenty of sunshine. High 72-79.

Thursday night: Clear during the evening, some clouds start to move in overnight. Low 52-59.

Friday: A mix of sun and clouds. High 71-78.

Friday night: Partly to mostly cloudy. Low 54-61.

Saturday: Intervals of clouds and sunshine, showers possible late in the day. High 70-77.

Saturday night: Mostly cloudy with showers likely. Low 53-60.

Sunday: Any lingering showers end early followed by gradual clearing. High 69-76.

Sunday night: Clear skies. Low 48-55.

Monday: Lots of sunshine. High 69-76.

The unofficial end of summer has arrived – Labor Day Weekend, but we’ve still got summer weather for most of it.

We start off with high pressure in control, giving us another nice day on Friday with sunshine and mild temperatures, but clouds will start to move in at night ahead of a warm front. That front may trigger a shower or two early Saturday, otherwise, we’ll stay dry. Warm and humid air moves back in for Saturday, but so do clouds as a cold front begins to approach from the west. It looks like most of the shower activity should hold off until nighttime, so daytime activities on Saturday should be good. Showers taper off Sunday morning as the front moves through, then a secondary front moves through late in the day with another shower or two possible. Once that front crosses the region, cooler and drier air settles in for Labor Day.

Thursday night: Clear skies. Low 48-55.

Friday: Plenty of sunshine. High 69-76.

Friday night: Clear during the evening, clouds start to move in overnight with a stray shower possible. Low 55-62.

Saturday: Intervals of clouds and sunshine, humid, showers may develop toward evening. High 74-81.

Saturday night: Cloudy with showers and a few thunderstorms. Low 63-70.

Sunday: Showers end in the morning, becoming partly sunny in the afternoon, slight chance for another late-day shower. High 75-82.

Sunday night: Becoming clear. Low 55-62.

Monday: Lots of sunshine. High 71-78.

A warming trend is on the way for the weekend.

The upper-level low that brought us cool temperatures and some showers over the past few days is moving out and high pressure is building in. That will mean sunshine and warmer weather as it slides eastward over the next few days. A seabreeze will keep coastal areas cool, but as a whole, temperatures will be near to above normal through the weekend, with many inland locations topping 80 over the next few days. Humidity levels will also start to creep up, enough that you’ll probably notice it by Sunday. Clouds will start to move back in on Sunday as another weak system approaches the region. That system may produce some showers and thunderstorms late Sunday and Sunday night, but they’ll be more likely on Monday.

Thursday night: Clear and cool. Low 53-60.

Friday: Sunshine and a few afternoon clouds. High 75-82.

Friday night: Clear to partly cloudy. Low 56-63.

Saturday: Partly to mostly sunny. High 77-84.

Saturday night: Clear to partly cloudy. Low 57-64.

Sunday: A mix of sun and clouds, more humid, slight chance for a late-day shower. High 79-86.

Sunday night: Partly cloudy, chance for a few showers. Low 59-66.

Monday: Intervals of clouds and sun with scattered showers and thunderstorms. High 76-83.

While some people may Ride the Lightning this weekend, we certainly won’t be Trapped Under Ice.

It’s Sad But True, that humidity will remain in place for much of the weekend, as a Bermuda remains anchored offshore, just as it has for a good chunk of the summer so far. It’s enough to drive you Stone Cold Crazy if you don’t like heat and humidity. Just a couple of stray showers or thunderstorms are possible, but most of us will stay dry. As we head into Saturday, an upper-level disturbance will head toward the region, bringing in more clouds, which will keep temperatures a little lower, but it will remain humid, which will Fuel a chance for showers and thunderstorms. A cold front moves in on Sunday, with more showers and thunderstorms likely. With the humid air in place, any showers or storms both Saturday and Sunday could produce heavy rain in some spots. Despite the fact that we’re expecting showers and thunderstorms both days, neither day will be a washout, so Wherever You May Roam, don’t cancel any outdoor plans you may have, but you should keep an eye to the sky (or on the radar), to plan your Escape if need be. The front moves through, and drier air moves in for Monday giving us One day that isn’t humid., but will stay fairly warm. A second cold front moves through late in the day, possibly triggering another shower or thunderstorm, but for the most part, Monday, should be a dry day.

Thursday night: Clear skies. Low 67-74.

Friday: Sunny in the morning, then clouds start to move in with a late-day shower or thunderstorm possible. High 88-95, a little cooler near the South Coast and Cape Cod.

Friday night: Partly to mostly cloudy with a few showers or thunderstorms. Low 68-75.

Saturday: Partly sunny with some showers and thunderstorms around. High 84-91, a little cooler near the South Coast and Cape Cod.

Saturday night: Partly to mostly cloudy, a few more showers or thunderstorms possible. Low 68-75.

Sunday: Intervals of clouds and sun, chance for showers and thunderstorms. High 81-88.

Sunday night: Any showers or storms end in the evening, becoming partly cloudy. Low 65-72.

Monday: A mix of sun and clouds, just a slight chance for a late-day shower or thunderstorm. High 84-91.

In terms of the weather, this will be one of the best weekends all summer.

A cold front will push offshore this evening, then high pressure builds in, with sunshine, lower humidity, and seasonably warm temperatures for Friday and the weekend. By Monday, things may change. Earlier, it was looking like it would be dry and more humid, but the latest models are all showing the potential for a weak storm system off the coast, which would bring in some clouds and showers. We’re a little skeptical about such a change from one run to the next, but nearly all of the models are showing it, so Monday may not be as great as we originally were thinking.

Thursday night: Any lingering showers end this evening, then skies clear out overnight. Low 59-66.

Friday: Plenty of sunshine, not as humid. High 78-85.

Friday night: Clear skies. Low 58-65.

Saturday: More sunshine. High 81-88, a little cooler near the coast.

Saturday night: Clear skies. Low 59-66.

Sunday: Sunny. High 83-90, a little cooler along the coast.

Sunday night: Clear during the evening, increasing clouds late at night. Low 60-67.

Monday. More clouds than sun with a chance of showers. High 77-84.

A drier and quieter weather pattern will be in place through the weekend.

High pressure builds in for Friday and only slowly moves eastward, pushing offshore by the end of the weekend. That means we’ll stay dry into at least Sunday and likely Monday. A weak disturbance will bring in some clouds on Saturday, but any shower activity should remain well north and west of our area. While temperatures will remain seasonably warm, humidity levels will drop for Friday and Saturday, but then start to slowly creep up again for Sunday and Monday. A weak frontal boundary will try to drop down from the north later Sunday and Monday with a few more clouds, but it doesn’t look like it will make it through, and there probably won’t be any shower activity associated with it aside from possibly a stray shower or two Monday afternoon.

Thursday night: Skies become clear, less humid. Low 59-66, maybe a little warmer across Cape Cod.

Friday: Sunshine and just a few stray clouds. High 79-86.

Friday night: Clear skies, some clouds start to filter in late at night. Low 60-67, a little warmer across Cape Cod.

Saturday: Partly sunny. High 81-88.

Saturday night: Partly cloudy. Low 63-70.

Sunday: A mix of sun and clouds. High 83-90.

Sunday night: Partly cloudy. Low 61-68.

Monday: Partly sunny, a little more humid, slight chance for a pop-up shower. High 83-90.

Hot and humid weather continues into a good chunk of next week across the region.

A Bermuda High will remain anchored offshore for the next several days, with southwest winds continuing to pump very warm to hot and humid conditions into the region. A stray shower or thunderstorm is possible on Friday, but a weak boundary will move in Friday night, bringing a better chance for some widespread showers and thunderstorms late Friday night into Saturday morning. Some of these storms could produce heavy rainfall, with some localized flooding possible. We’ll start to clear out late Saturday, with a drier day likely on Sunday. It’ll still be hot, and on the humid side, but not quite as humid as recent days. By Monday, humidity levels will creep back up, with a few showers and thunderstorms possible in the afternoon.

Thursday night: Clear to partly cloudy. Low 66-73.

Friday: A mix of sun and clouds, slight chance for a shower or thunderstorm, a little breezy in the afternoon. High 85-92, a little cooler near the South Coast and Cape Cod.

Friday night: Becoming mostly cloudy with showers and thunderstorms developing after midnight. Low 68-75.

Saturday: Showers and thunderstorms likely, some of them heavy in the morning, then skies start to clear out late in the day. High 80-87, a little cooler across Cape Cod.

Saturday night: Becoming clear. Low 65-72.

Sunday: Sunshine and a few clouds. High 86-93, a little cooler across Cape Cod.

Sunday night: Clear skies. Low 66-73.

Monday: A mix of sun and clouds, a shower or thunderstorm is possible. High 87-94, a little cooler across the South Coast and Cape Cod.
