DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 3-7)

One more unsettled and cool day in our early June stretch of weather that reminds us more of April. A final disturbance is moving across the region from west to east, and the shower threat will be with us through midday under an overcast sky with areas of fog and drizzle about as well. After that, a drying-out process begins, but the atmosphere will be unstable enough so that a few more showers may pop up later in the day, moving southeastward across the region through early evening. This can have some impact on any outdoor early evening graduation ceremonies. Our weekend is looking much better, but as previously mentioned there is one more disturbance going by on Saturday, the main impact of it to our north, but a little frontal boundary has to swing through our region and a situation similar to later today exists for Saturday afternoon / early evening, although any shower activity on this boundary should have a little lower coverage than any activity that pops up today – something to keep an eye on though. Sunday looks like a stellar, “top 10 / chamber of commerce” type day with high pressure in control, providing lots of sunshine and dry, mild air. Monday, high pressure shifts offshore and we warm up a little bit, but keep fair weather – just a few more clouds around than Sunday. A frontal system approaches the region Tuesday with more clouds still, and eventually the threat of showers and possibly a thunderstorm. Also of note, a tropical system will be moving across South Florida from southwest to northeast the next couple days (bringing some heavy rain and a threat of flooding there), and as this system moves out into the Atlantic, far south of New England, it will be a formidable system as it strengthens but loses tropical characteristics, and it will stir up some larger ocean swells which can impact our coastal areas up here, especially early next week.

TODAY: Cloudy with showers as well as areas of fog and drizzle this morning. Breaking clouds afternoon with an additional shower possible late afternoon through sunset. Highs 63-70, coolest coast. Wind variable to E up to 10 MPH.

TONIGHT: Lots of clouds. Fog patches forming. Lows 50-57. Wind E to variable under 10 MPH.

SATURDAY: Lots of clouds to start, then sun/cloud mix. Mid to late afternoon passing shower possible. Highs 71-78. Wind variable to S up to 10 MPH.

SATURDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy early, then clearing. Lows 48-55. Wind W up to 10 MPH.

SUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 71-78, coolest coast. Wind W to variable up to 10 MPH but some light coastal sea breezes midday-afternoon.

SUNDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 50-57. Wind S up to 10 MPH.

MONDAY: Partly cloudy. Highs 72-79, coolest South Coast. Wind S up to 10 MPH.

MONDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 52-59. Wind SW up to 10 MPH.

TUESDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of showers, especially later in the day. Highs 73-80, coolest South Coast. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 8-12)

A trough of low pressure swinging through the region to start the period (June 8) brings a shower threat, and another follows that (June 9-10) with another shower or t-storm chance. End of the period is drier with high pressure moving in. Temperatures near to slightly below normal overall.

DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 13-17)

Continued generally weak westerly flow pattern with mean trough position not too far to our west which sends a few disturbances through the region with shower threats, but mostly minor systems and limited rain threats. Temperatures slightly below to near normal.

  4. Thanks TK.

    A good start for the Celtics (for a change)! They got hot (and GS got cold) at just the right time in the game.

    Hope Robert Williams can stay healthy.

      1. Thanks, Philip. They made seafood chowder with half that has lasted them for the week. They froze the other half

        I have always enjoyed striper

    2. Very nice. Where did he catch it?

      I’ve only caught a few in my life and all small ones. 🙂

      1. Oops. I meant to include location in my original comment. He said from the shore in the middle part of Narragansett bay.

          1. Son would have. Interestingly, my mom always cleaned and cooked the trout my dad, brother and I caught. And she was far from someone you’d picture cleaning fish

              1. Taking fish off of the hook is gross also. Oddly, as often as I fished, I just could never do it. I could put a worm on or even a tiny frog….but every time I took hold of a fish it flopped.

  12. CPC and I are in agreement today on the near to below normal temps pretty much for the next 2 weeks.

    Does that mean cold & lousy weather every day? No. Not at all. These outlooks are for 6-10 & 8-14 day periods, although I still think the overlap is silly and they should refine those to 6-10 & 11-15. Why cover the same days more than once? In place of their “experimental” 3-4 week outlook should be a 16-30 day early outlook. This would cover all periods between the 5-day detailed forecast and the long-lead outlooks that follow the periods I outlined above.

    Anyway, got going on a tangent there. Bottom line to my original statement: on the cooler side – no heatwaves for the final days of spring / early days of meteorological summer as I see it now. Precip: I still lean a bit dry and I think they may lean a little wet but with a trough sitting just west of us as a mean position, they have a decent argument for a little wetter. I’m skeptical many of these threats produce much here. Time will tell, as always.

    1. I am enjoying this weather. This is not even close to what we had in June 2011 and 1982. I wouldn’t argue with anyone who said they were dismal and it takes a lot for me to say that.

      1. I’m a little bit behind on some of the outside projects I have (nothing huge, just busywork mostly) so the cooler regime is quite nice for that. I should be caught up by the end of this weekend, if all goes to plan. 🙂

  13. I am turning into a multi sports person. I watched the Celtics last night…..I never ever watch basketball….and loved it. And now I’m watching the Cubs/Cardinals game. My Nolan Gorman just got his third HR.

    1. I used to be a multi sport person. I’ve actually turned into a 1 sport person. I love the Fall.

      1. I’ve never heard of the team called “The Fall”. What sport do they play? 😉

  14. How is Alex or whatever part of him exists looking for the Orlando area? My oldest and family are there.

    Thank you

      1. Showery Saturday, under 1 inch of rain. Wind gusts no higher than 25 MPH. Very little impact there – just unsettled weather being a bit disappointing for vacationers basically.

    1. Yikes. I just looked. Thanks. Is there a small cell approaching your area? I think they are missing my son in RI

    1. Well we went for about 3-6 inches of rain in a swath across South Florida. They may get a bit more but the general idea of how this system was going to behave is playing out.
