Good morning everybody, we’ve got some patchy dense fog out there at Orange, Chicopee and other spots, which will burn off and give us a beautiful mostly sunny day, albeit with some haze in the sky from western wildfire smoke. Tomorrow will feature more clouds mixed with sun, a few showers overnight potentially, followed by scattered showers and thunderstorms Monday night into Tuesday evening with fair weather by later next week, but before we dive into all of the weather details below, let’s check a note from our local weekend sponsor, #YankeeMattressFactory, with their main headquarters in Agawam, MA along with stores located around the valley.

A NOTE FROM OUR WEEKEND SPONSOR:
DHTWN is sponsored by members, patrons, and Yankee Mattress Factory. Yankee Mattress is employee-owned, and mattresses are handmade locally in Agawam, MA. Several years ago I purchased a Yankee mattress and was very pleased with their quality and the buying experience, which was friendly and low pressure. Starting on September 1st and running through October 31st, Yankee Mattress will be partnering with the American Cancer Society to raise money to support breast cancer research and local services. A portion of each mattress sale will go towards their goal of donating $10,000 towards this cause. Visit the Yankee Mattress store closest to you in Agawam, Springfield, Northampton, or Greenfield, or click for more info: https://yankeemattressfactory.com/

***DHTWN DAILY WEATHER REPORT***
——————————————-
Good morning everybody, we’ve already seen reports of quarter to half mile fog density in parts of the greater WMass region, but as air temps climb and dewpoint temps don’t climb with equal rapidity, the fog will evaporate, or “burn off”.
This will lead to the warmest day we can expect to have for the next week at least, with highs in the low to mid 80s with light west wind under mostly sunny skies, leading to lows in the upper 50s to low 60s under partly cloudy skies tonight.
For Sunday, we’re going to have some sunny periods early, but expect more clouds than sun with highs in the 75-80º range. In addition, a weak system will be ejecting east-northeast out of the Mid-Atlantic which will bring a few scattered showers to the region at night with lows either side of 60º.
On Monday, after any early morning scattered showers, we’ll have a dry period, but a cold front will be approaching the region, as a surface low winds up and tracks northeast into Ontario and western Quebec into Tuesday.
Highs will reach the 75-80º range again on Monday, and clouds will thicken later in the day in response to our incoming cold front.
At night, showers should become a bit more numerous. Lows will be in the low 60s as humidity increases.
By Tuesday, humidity will peak with dewpoints into the 60s to low 70s, so it’ll be quite soupy. This is also when we’ll see the bulk of our showers, downpours and a few thunderstorms, especially Tuesday morning into the mid afternoon or so. Highs will be in the 70s.
Showers will taper off Tuesday night, and then we’ll get into much drier air for the mid to late week period with highs in the low to mid 70s under mostly sunny skies, and lows in the 50s.
Have a great day!
