154 AM EDT Thu Apr 25 2024 SYNOPSIS... Canadian high pressure will build southeastward across our area through Thursday...before slowly drifting to the New England coastline Friday. The high will guarantee us fair dry weather through Friday...with below normal temperatures through Thursday night followed by a return to somewhat above average readings on Friday as a southeasterly return flow of milder air overspreads our region. The warming trend will then continue over the weekend and into early next week...resulting in summerlike warmth across our region both Sunday and Monday. While there will also be some showers and thunderstorms around, particularly during Saturday...a fair amount of dry time can also be expected. Area Forecast Discussion
