Early this morning there are some “after-effects” of the weather system that went through yesterday. We have patchy stratus and fog both near the NH Seacoast and in interior valley locations, while a plume of high clouds behind the offshore frontal system crosses Cape Cod and the Islands. All of these are temporary and we’ll end up with a day of abundant sun and mild air as high pressure dominates the region. A weak and nearly dissipated cold front will cross the region from west to east tonight, but it will hardly be noticeable other than maybe any given location being 1 or 2 degrees cooler for a high temp on Sunday – another day dominated by high pressure with fair weather. You will notice though an increase in the high cloudiness later in the day, this being in advance of our next unsettled weather system. This system will be rotating around a low pressure trough to our west, and will bring a period of showers and rain to the region Monday, especially during the afternoon and night, before it exits the region on Tuesday. With the trough nudging eastward, we’ll have an indirect delivery of much cooler air later Tuesday and Wednesday, along with dry weather conditions.

TODAY: Limited sun early to mid morning Cape Cod, patchy clouds NH Seacoast and patchy fog and low clouds interior valleys early, then sunny. Highs 65-72. Wind SW up to 10 MPH.

TONIGHT: A few clouds pass by. Lows 45-52. Wind SW-W up to 10 MPH.

SUNDAY: Sunshine, becoming filtered later in the day. Highs 63-70. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.

SUNDAY NIGHT: Clouding over. Lows 51-58. Wind S 5-15 MPH.

MONDAY: Cloudy. Rain likely, especially during the afternoon. Highs 58-65. Wind SE 5-15 MPH, higher gusts possible.

MONDAY NIGHT: Cloudy with rain likely evening and a chance of rain showers overnight. Areas of fog. Lows 47-54. Wind SE to S up to 15 MPH.

TUESDAY: Lots of clouds with an early rain shower chance, then a sun/cloud mix. Highs 55-62. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.

TUESDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 33-40. Wind W up to 10 MPH.

WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 53-60. Wind W 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (OCTOBER 20-24)

Mean trough position stays to the west for this period with surface high pressure in control here providing fair weather, below normal temperatures to start then a moderating trend. By the end of the period we may need to watch low pressure getting closer to our area from the south.

DAYS 11-15 (OCTOBER 25-29)

The greatest chance for unsettled weather comes at the start of the period pending the position of low pressure to the south and the expecting timing of a disturbance moving through from the west. A trough from the west and a stronger push of cooler / colder air from Canada may be ours later in the period.

  3. Thank you, TK!

    Looks as if my son and DIL will have a great weekend to roam around the three states to our north.

    1. Indeed. That front may produce a quick passing shower in northwestern New England late today and eastward tonight / early Sunday but it’s really nothing much. Great weather overall.

      1. Perfect. I’ll warn them. They are camping along the way. I believe starting in western maine and heading west and south and north and wherever from there

    1. Yikes. I’ll send to son. Thanks. I spent too many summers to count fishing the Ellis just above Jackson. Some of the best trout I’ve ever had.

      1. Never saw it like that in all the times we were there. I’m sure time of year was in good part to play. We fished below the falls and about 2/3 of the way up from Jackson.

  11. This weather is perfect !!

    70F in October
    60F in November
    50F December thru February
    Back to 60F in March
    70F in April and …..
    87F from May thru September

    Not trying to swelter anyone.

    It can snow Dec 24th and the morning of the 25th.

    🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

  12. We once again have the invasion of the ladybugs. I used a broom to sweep at dozens of them from the front door and around it.

  14. This foliage is the best I’ve seen in the city/Boston in decades! More and more trees are turning color every day. Absolutely vibrant! 🙂

  15. My trip to the western part of MA yesterday confirms the best foliage in not just years, but decades. I heard so many people say it.
