DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 9-13)
And now the nicer weather pattern arrives, starting with a warmer west to southwest flow of air which will warm the region nicely, except the typically cooler South Coast, during the next few days. A weaker pressure gradient may leave the east coastal areas of MA and NH a little more vulnerable to a sea breeze on Tuesday. A weak cold front will knock the temperature back a little bit by Wednesday, which will be the only day with a rain shower threat, before a stronger front makes it cooler still by Thursday.
TODAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 47-55 South Coast, 56-63 elsewhere. Wind SW 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 40-47. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 47-52 Nantucket, 52-60 South Coast, 61-70 elsewhere except 70-75 some interior locations of MA/NH. Wind SW 10-20 MPH.
MONDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 42-51. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny morning. Partly cloudy afternoon. Highs 48-60 South Coast, coolest Nantucket and Cape Cod, 60-70 just inland from the South Coast and along the East Coast, 70-80 elsewhere. Wind SW 5-15 MPH but sea breeze possible East Coast.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of rain showers. Lows from the upper 40s to middle 50s. Highs from the upper 50s to middle 60s, cooler Cape Cod.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the upper 30s to middle 40s. Highs in the 50s.
DAYS 6-10 (APRIL 14-18)
Going with a weaker and faster disturbance with minimal shower threat April 14 along with slightly milder air. Fair and cooler behind this April 15. Quick warm-up April 16 (Easter for those celebrating) with dry weather followed by a shower threat. Fair, cooler April 17-18 based on current timing but many days away so lower confidence as always.
DAYS 11-15 (APRIL 19-23)
The indications are for an overall drier than normal pattern with variable temperatures not far from normal overall bu with possible large day-to-day variation.
