Monday Evening Essentials: Showers Dissipate, Meteors Again Tonight

Last night brought a pleasant surprise for those venturing out to catch the Perseid meteor shower—some areas, especially in rural spots, were treated to a beautiful display of northern lights. While that atmospheric energy has calmed down, the meteor shower continues.  Even though the peak has passed, you can still catch some bright streaks in the sky. The best time to view them is after midnight, and remember, it’s always best to find a dark spot away from city lights. Matt shares the forecast through Tuesday, along with the Outdoor Outlook so you can plan your day with ease.

Tonight’s Forecast: Quiet and Cool

As for tonight, we’re expecting a quiet evening after about 10 PM. Until then, you might notice a few lingering showers, which you can track on the radar tab of our Noyes’ One Degree Outside Weather app. Once the sun goes down, these showers will weaken and eventually dissipate.

Overnight, temperatures will drop to a cool 50-55°F in northern New England, bringing a taste of fall to the region. Expect some fog to develop, especially around ponds, rivers, and lakes where the water remains warmer than the air. This will create those classic foggy scenes in the early morning.

Tomorrow’s Outlook: Sunshine and Comfortable Air

Looking ahead to tomorrow, we’re in for a fantastic day. Temperatures will climb to around 80°F with a mix of sun and clouds. Most of us will experience a light northwest breeze, shifting to a sea breeze near the coastline. If you’re along the South Coast or the Cape, expect a gentle southwesterly breeze.

  • Mountains: After a cool start, the day will brighten up significantly, making it feel more like a summer afternoon. The UV index will be higher, so don’t forget your sunscreen!
  • Lakes Region: Expect a blend of sun and clouds with water temperatures still in the 70s. There will be a light northwesterly breeze creating a gentle chop on the water.
  • Beaches: Conditions will vary depending on your location. East-facing beaches will see calm seas with waves around 0-1 feet, while south-facing coastlines will experience a bit more action with 2-3 foot waves. The rip current risk is low, so it’s a great day to hit the beach.
