Today will feature weather that is, perhaps remarkably for the last few weeks, actually nice. Look for morning low clouds and fog over the coastal plain to burn off in the next few hours, leaving mostly sunny skies across the area for the rest of the day. That sunshine will push temps into the upper 50’s for the north and the lower 70’s for the typical interior SW warm spots. Cooler temps will also be found along the coast where a sea breeze will develop this afternoon.
Get out and enjoy the lovely weather while it’s here, another cool and unsettled stretch appears to be headed our way in the next several days.
Today will feature slightly warmer temps and slightly sunnier skies as southwesterly flow develops ahead of a cold front over Quebec. While unfortunately I can’t promise bluebird skies until tomorrow, most areas should leave yesterday’s deep gray behind. Temps will respond accordingly away from the coast, rising into the upper 60’s/low 70’s for most. The midcoast will remain much chillier in the low to mid 50’s. Some showers will move into northern areas this evening, but the vast majority of the day will be dry.
We’ll be returning to a familiar pattern today with cool temps and widespread cloud cover behind a departing storm system. Given that the storm is off to our east, we’ll be mostly precip free today with the exception of some drizzle this morning. The clouds will be most widespread this morning, and we’ll likely see some spots enjoying sunnier skies by this evening. The best odds for sunshine will be found across northern and western areas, with the coastal plain most likely to remain cloudy. High temps will be kept cool by the clouds and light onshore flow, ranging from the low to mid 50’s across most of the coastal plain and foothills to the low 60’s along the CT river where some breaks of sun are more likely.
Today will feature a brief return to the cooler and unsettled pattern we’ve all grown so tired of in recent weeks as low pressure tracks off to our south. Morning sunny breaks in eastern parts of the area will become obscured by cloud cover over the next couple hours, and overcast skies will continue through sunset. Rain will arrive from west to east during the midday hours, beginning in W NH between 9 and 11 AM before moving into Maine between 12 and 2 this afternoon. Rain will slowly taper off this evening from west to east.
A cold front has moved offshore as of this morning, and we’ll get to enjoy a nearly perfect day of weather today as a result. Expect mostly sunny skies across the area, with the only exception being far northwestern parts of the mountains near the Canadian border. Temps will be on the cooler side thanks to the northern source of the incoming airmass. Look for highs ranging from 50 in the north to a little over 70 in the south. Get out and enjoy the wonderful weather, we’ve earned it!
Today will feature the chance for showers and thunderstorms across northeastern parts of the area as a weak cold front slides through. Areas of clouds rain associated with the warm front will continue to impact coastal areas for the next few hours. Then we’ll see drier and sunnier conditions moving in from the west for the midday hours. That sunshine will push temps up into the 70’s for most areas away from the mountains and immediate coast. A few of the typical SW warm spots will make a run at 80. Those warm temps will combine with slightly muggier dew points to fuel the incoming thunderstorms this afternoon. Storms will develop around noon in the northern mountains before working their way southeast through the afternoon. Not everyone will get a storm, but those that do will experience heavy rain, lightning, and gusty winds. At this point, no organized severe weather is expected, but some storms could become severe if more sunshine develops in those northeastern spots. As you move SW, there’s less in the way of upper level dynamics to initiate and support thunderstorms, which should leave places SW of Portland mostly dry.
Today will feature a sunny start and a cloudy conclusion as a warm front approaches the region from the west. After some patchy fog this morning burns off, just about everyone should see some sunshine before clouds slowly move in from the west this afternoon. The morning sunshine will be enough to get temps to rise into the upper 60’s to lower 70’s for everyone but the coast, where a sea breeze will keep things a bit cooler.
Most of the day will remain dry before showers develop later this evening from west to east.
Today will feature the slow brightening of the skies over western Maine and New Hampshire as low pressure drifts off to the east. Parts of SW ME and SE NH have already been enjoying this sunshine during the morning and as a result that’s where our warmest temps, around 65, are anticipated. With light NW flow, the mountains will hold onto the clouds the longest, and will thus have the chilliest highs around 50. Aside from a few areas of drizzle this morning, we’ll remain mostly dry today.
Today will feature mostly quiet weather as large thunderstorms develop off to our west. Morning cloud cover will slowly thin out over the next few hours, and most of us will see at least a brief glimpse of the sun by lunchtime. Clouds will develop again this afternoon ahead of an approaching cold front. That front will arrive early tonight, and will bring with it some showers and thunderstorms. Rain will begin in western NH around 7 PM before spreading into Maine later in the evening. Any severe weather will remain to our west today with the best instability, though some gusty winds are possible in the CT valley as the initial line of storms moves through. Rain will continue into the night, but shouldn’t accumulate to enough for flooding concerns.
Highs will range from 50 along the immediate coast north of Portland to 70 in the typical SW NH warm spots.
Today will feature the lovely spring weather we’ve all been waiting for over the past few months. Sunny skies already present across much of the region this morning will continue through much of the day. Clouds will become a bit more numerous heading into the afternoon as we get some daytime heating of the low levels underneath cooler air aloft, but no one will stay gray for too long. High temps will be cool but not cold, ranging from 60 in the north and along the coast to 65 or even 70 in the typical interior SW warm spots. Enjoy the lovely weather!
