YOUR MORNING DISCUSSION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Good morning folks, another chilly morning has visited our hills and dales with temps down into the mid 40s to low 50s. I even heard of a Vermonter who made a wood fire!

As for our upcoming weather, we have plenty of sunshine to expect through the weekend the way it looks to me now, though a couple of showers are likely to pop today due to the last waning influences of our departing upper low.

However, the areas of “impact”, which it’s hard to call these showers impactful, is northern MA, SVT and SWNH, later this afternoon.

Highs will reach the upper 60s to mid 70s as some clouds bubble up this afternoon (most of us stay dry, especially the further south in MA and CT you go).

Lows tonight will dip to the upper 40s to low 50s, then that should be last 40s we see until we get closer to the Equinox.

High pressure pushes overhead Friday and Saturday, with low humidity still and highs 75-80º on Friday, and upper 70s to low 80s Saturday as we climb back to average temps through the weekend for late August. Lows will be in the 50s under mostly clear skies.

By Sunday, highs will climb into the low to mid 80s, and we should see some humidity creeping back up as high pressure scoots off the eastern seaboard to our south and sends southerly, more humid and warmer flow into our region. Clouds will increase at night with lows near 60º, and a few showers will be possible.

By Monday, an upper trough may be swinging down from Canada and helping to spawn some showers and thunderstorms.

Next week looks more humid and after a more temperate first half of the week with highs near 80º, we still may see temps and humidity surge by late week with severe weather possible by later Friday or Saturday with a cold front, so I will continue to update as we get towards that timeframe and head towards (gulp) September.

Have a great day!
