DAYS 1-5 (MAY 31 – JUNE 4)
On the back side of upper level low pressure we experience a fair and cool day with a sun / cloud mix – sun dominating. Previous potential showers in the forecast are no longer there, as the unstable air to create those will be over Maine, not the WHW region, so we’re now guaranteed dry weather for outdoor activities – proms / graduations / etc. this afternoon and evening. Temperatures today will run slightly below the long term average and it’ll be a little breezy at times, putting a little chill in the late spring air though. We open June with a very nice weekend – high pressure in control – with fair weather and a slight warming trend, which continues into early next week with a continued warm-up. A low pressure area making a run at the Northeast will be shunted to the south, but may bring some clouds mainly to western areas on Sunday and southern areas on Monday – that’s about it.
TODAY: Sun & passing clouds. Highs 63-70. Wind N 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Clear. Lows 50-57. Wind N up to 10 MPH.
SATURDAY: Sun & a few clouds. Highs 65-72 coast, 73-80 inland. Wind N up to 10 MPH with developing coastal sea breezes.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 51-58. Wind variable under 10 MPH.
SUNDAY: Partly cloudy – most clouds to the west. Highs 68-75 coast, 75-82 inland. Wind variable up to 10 MPH with redeveloping coastal sea breezes.
SUNDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 52-59. Wind variable under 10 MPH.
MONDAY: Partly cloudy – most clouds to the south. Highs 70-77 coast, 77-84 inland. Wind variable to S 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 54-61. Wind S up to 10 MPH.
TUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 71-78 South Coast, 78-85 inland. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
DAYS 6-10 (JUNE 5-9)
High pressure offshore / low pressure trough to west results in fair weather and above normal temperatures June 5. Frontal boundary associated with trough from west moves into the region June 6-7 brings higher humidity and shower/t-storm chances, before fair weather returns at the end of the period, and temperatures coming back to near normal.
DAYS 11-15 (JUNE 10-14)
Unsettled weather comes back early in the period before we trend drier again. But upper level low pressure in the region means temperatures near to slightly below normal.
Thanks TK !

Just what Houston needs, another squall line with potential straight line wind issues.
Thanks TK
Thanks, TK!
Great news about Mom! Continued best wishes for her!
Seniors are starting to roll in for their last day. They have one more graduation rehearsal and then will be boarding buses for their Senior Walk. They will walk through their old kindergarten, elementary schools, middle school and, finally, walk through the halls of MHS. All of the kiddos from all grades will be in the hallways cheering them on.
Graduation is traditionally held on the first Saturday of June.
Last year, the ceremony was held outdoors in a heavy drizzle, brisk winds and 48 degrees.
The Middleborough Sachems take on the Woburn Tanners in the MIAA Round of 32 baseball tourney Sunday at 3 in Woburn. Unfortunately, I cannot go.
Go Sachems! 🙂
Such special traditions. Have a very special day, Captain!
This is the video of last year’s Senior Walk:

I have goosebumps. This is such a special town wide tradition. I still remember the many feelings that go along with graduation. These young folks will remember today forever.
We have an awarding-winning TV Production department with state-of-the-art equipment in our new building.
My annual start of hurricane season blog is up. It includes updated stats on how overdue we are here in New England.

Excellent write-up !!
Thanks!
Fabulous blog.
It will get a second reading during my after work iced coffee break!
Thanks TK.
Great news on your Mom.
Thank you, TK!
Thanks, TK.
And thanks, SAK.
Good day all.
A beauty today. Had a nice morning of fishing in delightful weather. Not bad results.
71 here.
What was biting?
large mouth and blue gill.
This 11 minute song isn’t easy to do live when you’re 25, let alone 80 turning 81. Here, Mick and the gang perform Midnight Rambler last night at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcdQzsFglSw
“Well, you heard about the Boston…”
Super clip and performance!
2 years and 2 hours ago (5PM May 31 2022) it was 93 in Hartford CT and 57 in Boston MA.
Hmm, I wonder if a back-door front was involved. 😉 Yes, absolutely.
That front dropped Boston’s temp from 83 at 8:15 a.m. to 62 at 8:22 a.m. .. a fall of 19 in just 8 minutes.
Thanks SAK! Hopefully our stretch of no hurricanes continues to at least 34.
not 19, 21
Splendid morning.
Happy June to all! New wx post…
