A week of Summer weather is ahead as we have now seen the pattern shift into a mode that allows an upper level high pressure ridge to build over the eastern US and surface high pressure to sit south of New England. Cristobal, a tropical storm, will organize itself east of the Bahamas through Tuesday then likely strengthen to a hurricane as it moves north then turns northeast between the US East Coast and Bermuda Wednesday through Friday, finally racing toward the North Atlantic waters next weekend. This system, other than tossing some larger ocean swells toward shore mid to late week, will not bother the East Coast. For southern New England, the only real weather systems of any consequence, and that will be minimal, will be a pair of cold fronts that move through early Thursday and again sometime over the early portion of the Labor Day Weekend. Neither of these look like they will produce much more than cloudiness and a few showers.
