YOUR MORNING DISCUSSION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Good morning everybody, we continue to experience high-pressure dominance as high pressure cells reinforce themselves over the northeast U.S., and that does not look to stop any time very soon.

We do have some patchy fog this morning, we do have some wildfire smoke up in the sky to produce some haze, and we do have a very low chance for a shower in northeast CMass this afternoon, but in reality that’s much ado about nothing.

It’s mostly dry, mostly sunny during the day, mostly clear at night (though some fog will be dotted around the region the next coupe of mornings, potentially), and there are no big storms in sight.

It is quite warm for this time of year, and that will continue today through at least the middle of next week.

Highs will reach the upper 70s to mid 80s today and dip to the mid to upper 50s tonight with a few fog patches possible.

This weekend features more sunshine with highs in the upper 70s to mid 80s and lows in the 50s under mostly clear skies, with some patchy fog possible early.

High pressure then continues to rule the roost early to middle of next week with highs in the upper 70s to mid 80s prior to a dry frontal passage possible by late week, which could cool us down.

Humidity is going to be tolerable throughout this period. Dew point temps may bob up into the low 60s or so at times, but should mostly be in the mid to upper 50s.

I will be watching the low potential for coastal storm development along the Carolinas by mid to late next week, but otherwise, we’re dry all the way through, and have to look to the following week for an increase in rain potential (see attached graphic for potential rainfall through late September).

Remember this: we live in New England, and our weather WILL change. We’re too close to ocean coastline, ocean currents, storm tracks, mountains, valleys, and other land, air and water confluences, and our New England neck is stuck east out into the ocean, so we do (and we will continue to) get it all here!

Have a great day!
