Discussion

It turns cooler today despite partial sunshine as a low-level flow of air out of the east-to-northeast brings in marine air from the western Atlantic Ocean…all supported by building high pressure over New England. This cool down will intensify over the weekend with both days featuring quite cool conditions, plenty of clouds, and a high risk of some rain. Looking ahead, it appears the wetter pattern that begins this weekend will continue next week as there will be numerous chances for rain.
