.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...A generally unsettled pattern persists through 
Friday as a quasi-stationary front remains across the Northeast, 
resulting in multiple opportunities for showers and thunderstorms. 
While coverage should remain limited through Thursday, stronger 
forcing Friday may bring a better chance for showers and 
thunderstorms before drier weather arrives for the weekend.

A mid-level ridge remains anchored across the south-central and 
southeastern CONUS, while a weaker ridge extends into the Canadian 
Prairies. This leaves the flow aloft relatively quasi-zonal, 
allowing shortwave energy to quickly traverse the continent into the 
northeast. Given the lack of strong synoptic-scale forcing, shower 
development and coverage will remain difficult to pin down through 
Thursday.

Today will be mainly dry, with a weak surface low passing south of 
New England. The highest PoPs, generally 10-20 percent, will be 
confined to the immediate south coast and Islands during the 
morning. Otherwise, a mix of sun and clouds is expected, although 
another surge of wildfire smoke may result in hazy or milky skies. A 
mid-level shortwave trough will move through tonight into Thursday 
morning, providing enough forcing for scattered showers and a few 
thunderstorms. Coverage should remain limited, however, with PoPs 
generally in the 20-30 percent range northwest of I-95 and I-495. 
Thursday features a weak disturbance passing through the flow, with 
similar PoPs once again across the eastern half of southern New 
England.  

A more notable change arrives Friday as the front's departure has 
trended later. A stronger 500 mb shortwave trough and increasing 
forcing will bring a better chance for showers and thunderstorms, 
particularly as the front finally pushes offshore. Behind the front, 
high pressure builds into the region for Saturday and Sunday, 
bringing a much drier airmass along with mostly sunny and 
comfortable conditions. The next opportunity for more substantial 
rainfall arrives late Sunday into Monday as low pressure approaches 
from the northern Great Lakes.

KEY MESSAGE 2...Temperatures trend toward seasonable levels through 
the end of the week, with lower humidity and more comfortable 
conditions expected this weekend.

Temperatures aloft gradually cool through the end of the week, with 
dew points following suit. The result will be a noticeably cooler 
and more refreshing airmass by late week. The weekend is shaping up 
to be the most comfortable stretch of weather in quite some time, 
with highs generally in the upper 70s across interior southern New 
England and lower 80s along the coastal plain. Dew points in the 50s 
will make for much more comfortable conditions, while overnight lows 
fall into the 50s Saturday and Sunday mornings. Temperatures early 
next week remain seasonable, though dew points may trend upward on 
Monday depending on the timing of the next frontal system.
