Today’s Insights focuses on two separate disturbances in the coming days for New England – one is the remnant moisture of once-Hurricane Beryl teaming with a cold front, while the other is an upper level storm over the Western Atlantic. Matt has details on both, plus the 14-day dew point forecast so many of you have requested!
As we start the new week, Tropical Storm Beryl is making headlines. Although Beryl has weakened, it still brings a significant amount of moisture and warmth to our region. This moisture, combined with a cold front from the north and an upper-level energy system from the Atlantic, will influence our weather over the next few days.
Today, you’ll notice scattered showers and storms, a trend that will continue into Wednesday. Expect high temperatures around 90°F in central and southern New England, with a south-southwesterly breeze adding to the humidity. The heaviest rainfall from Beryl is likely to impact northern New England on Wednesday night, while southern areas may experience more scattered showers and storms.
Many of you have asked for a dew point forecast, and we’re excited to deliver! Over the next week, expect consistently high dew points, keeping the air feeling humid. There is a slight dip in humidity forecasted for the middle of next week, so we’ll keep you updated on that potential relief.
By Thursday, we will still see pop-up showers and thunderstorms across New England, with temperatures running towards 90°F. The South Coast and areas with more cloud cover will be slightly cooler. Friday brings more of the same, with a stalled front over us leading to occasional showers and storms.
The weekend starts with potential showers on Saturday as moisture from the Atlantic system moves up the eastern seaboard. While southern New England may see significant rainfall, northern areas will have scattered showers. High temperatures will remain in the 80s, but if the rain is widespread, southern New England could see cooler temperatures.
Rainfall amounts will vary across the region. Our proprietary guidance suggests up to five inches or more in isolated spots of mountainous areas over the next five days. See the map in the video for average rain amounts, even as localized higher amounts are possible, especially where the terrain enhances downpours.
