A high pressure system continues to dominate our weather through Thursday before clouds make their way in, and showers march eastbound Friday into Saturday. The cold front that’s over the Great Lakes at the moment will keep moving east, and it will trigger showers along the Berkshires and Vermont by Friday afternoon/evening into Saturday, becoming more widespread Saturday with heavy rain at times.
Tropical Storm Philippe will keep working its way over the Atlantic, crossing Bermuda Friday. The cone of trajectory keeps reaching northeastern Maine Saturday night into Sunday, which will also produce additional rain for parts of New England. With our cold front and Philippe, rainfall amounts may exceed 3 inches by the end of this event.
The heavy rain that will fall at times Saturday make localized flooding possible in northern and western New England, from western Massachusetts to much of foliage country.
A secondary cold front will push in right after, which will bring along cooler temperatures, dropping our highs down to the 50s by Sunday.
Below-average highs will be seen Sunday into much of next week, with 50s and 60s. Normal for this time of year are temperatures in the upper 60s, but highs will top out in the low 60s through next Friday. Sunny skies will likely win the battle though from midweek onward.
