DAYS 1-5 (AUGUST 1-5)
Welcome to August and a new weather pattern, with high pressure generally dominant off the US East Coast and a trough of low pressure in the Ohio Valley and Great Lakes. This pattern will be one of moderate to high humidity, generally warm weather, and daily opportunities for isolated to scattered afternoon showers and thunderstorms, with the higher chances being generally to the west and north of Boston, but more of the region may have opportunity to see a few showers/storms sometime between later Friday and later Saturday as a piece of the trough tries to move east and sends a weak cold front into New England. Favoring Saturday for this right now.
TODAY: Sunny to partly cloudy. Isolated showers and thunderstorms favoring southern NH and central MA late-day. More humid. Highs 78-83 immediate coast, 83-88 interior. Wind variable up to 10 MPH with coastal sea breezes.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy evening with isolated showers, then mostly clear. Humid. Patchy fog in low-elevations and near the South Coast. Lows 62-67. Wind light variable.
WEDNESDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated to scattered afternoon and early evening showers and thunderstorms, favoring central and eastern MA through southern NH. Humid. Highs 78-83 immediate coast, 83-88 interior. Wind variable up to 10 MPH with coastal sea breezes.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Patchy fog. Humid. Lows 65-72. Wind light variable.
THURSDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated to scattered afternoon and early evening showers and thunderstorms, again favoring east central MA and southern NH. Humid. Highs 80-85 coast, 85-90 interior. Wind S 5-15 MPH with light coastal sea breezes.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated to scattered showers/thunderstorms. Humid. Lows from the middle 60s to lower 70s. Highs from the lower to middle 80s coast, upper 80s to lower 90s interior.
SATURDAY: Variably cloudy. Scattered showers/thunderstorms. Humid. lows from the middle 60s to lower 70s. Highs in the 80s.

DAYS 6-10 (AUGUST 6-10)
Same general pattern keeps high pressure off the East Coast and a fairly weak trough centered around the Great Lakes. Disturbances moving east and northeast from the trough may bring a few enhanced opportunities for showers/thunderstorms especially around August 7-8 and August 10, based on current medium range timing, but this is a low confidence forecast. Temperatures near to above normal.

DAYS 11-15 (AUGUST 11-15)
Slightly stronger high pressure offshore and weaker trough to the west means fewer opportunities for showers/storms and slightly hotter weather overall.
