Rich`s Weather Discussion
The Mosquito Outlook for the next 7 days is presented above.
A quiet night ahead with an equally quiet weekend. Warm and dry weather is expected.Breezy conditions today will last into the early evening as the base of the trough that crossed the region passes overhead. Other than scattered cumulous this afternoon, just a few isolated showers will be possible across the north and mountains.
The winds and deep mixing have done a good job at keeping the surface fairly dry through the day. A little Relative Humidity recovery expected overnight as temps cool. These should drop well once winds go calm, resulting in some lows into the lower 50s across the northern valleys and mid to upper 50s elsewhere. Some fog will be possible late, but the dry air should keep this to river valleys which have a bit more moisture.
While some smoke was visible aloft earlier today, there is additional smoke that may move into and linger in the region for the weekend. Some indications are that light concentrations make it into the lower levels this evening, which may be apparent on summits of the higher elevations.
Ridging builds in for Saturday with weaker flow and temperatures a few degrees warmer. With lighter winds, expect an afternoon seabreeze to make its way inland from the coast. Thus temps along the coast may top out a few degrees cooler tomorrow vs. today.
Saturday night brings a similar setup overnight with few clouds and light winds. Falling temps overnight may have a quicker start as winds should slow earlier.
Long range:
The extended period starts quiet but turns unsettled for much of next week. Although no all day rain is expected, chances of showers do increase.
In the dailies: Sunday will feature high pressure over northern New England resulting in dry and seasonably warm temperatures. Dewpoints will be slightly higher than Saturday but not as high as they have been in recent weeks or will be later next week.
Monday and Tuesday we will be tracking a compressed area of low pressure both at the surface and aloft that originates over the western Atlantic. Models show this system being pulled to the west nearing south coastal areas which will result in an increase in shower possibilities later Monday into Tuesday. There is still uncertainty as to how far west the low makes it and how much moisture will be drawn in as models show the system weakening as it approaches the coast. The extra cloud cover from this system may help keep temperatures down some...but still expect warm conditions with dew points on the increase resulting in muggy conditions.
For Wednesday though Friday a warm front will push over area resulting in a warm and muggy airmass with more chances of showers and thunderstorms. This is a rather typical mid summer pattern for New England.
