Hopefully we wont need that salt any time soon. No, no, my gosh my brain is so not there now. Its such a muggy summerlike day, the hair had to go up, right . It is so humid out there this morning. We have a few showers that are going to be driven by the higher humidity, all the moisture out there, incoming front as well. Its going do a number on the monday forecast. Also, lets plan on some wind gusts, 2025 Miles Per Hour. By the end of the day tomorrow, we should have a rain total for the two days between inch and 1. 5 of rain and we are so desperate for the rain because of the drought we will take it. I know it does kind of look like a monday washout. I dont think today will be a washout. Hey, tropical depression julia basically just meandering off the coast of North Carolina and South Carolina. This is not a player directly in our own local forecast, but some of the tropical moisture from the system is going to pivot up, basically, into new england here. And help fuel some downpours in 69 degrees. Look at fitchburg though, 71. I have showers moving through now, still getting reports of just mostly cloudy and dry conditions. But do expect to see some light rain form here within minutes. So, i have mostly cloudy skies in fitchburg today. You see a lot of cloudy, not necessarily rainy icons, because of a lot of the day is dry. Wedged in between we can see a couple passing showers especially early this morning and late tonight, middle of the day we will probably see some kind of lull in temperaturewise, we will be stuck in the 70s most of the day, spots like fitchburg, across much of the area, you will be lucky if you get into the lower 80s maybe not lucky because its muggy out there and it will just feel kind of gross. At 8 00 this morning, notice the best bet for some showers, although futurecast is under doing the rain, the best bet is going to be up into southern New Hampshire. I would say down into lowell and worcester. We will watch for an isolated shower passing even through the boston area here. By noontime we are looking at watch out for 12 sprinkles at noontime, but the overall picture is actually a decent one. Then, during the afternoon, we do have some pockets of rain out there. Its nothing wide spread but any showers that do pop up, could contain some locally heavy rain. I know its a bit of a nuisance forecast because im telling you slight chance you will get hit but the areas that do get hit could end up with a decent amount of rain this afternoon. By 9 p. M. , i know futurecast also looking kind of bald there. We still have that slight risk of shower, folks, and itwi by the time you wake up tomorrow morning and the front is much closer we will see heavy rain overspread the area. Not just southern New Hampshire, its most affidavit area getting in on the pockets of heavy rain, some gusty winds, during the morning commute as well as lunchtime tomorrow and even though the front is slowly going to sag southwart, we are still going to have rain on top for even a monday evening commute, heaviest is over southeastern massachusetts, but we still have got a couple lingering showers, even off to the north and west of boston. Monday night before drying out on tuesday, and slowly clearing out. So we have a high of 82 in boston today, 83 in norwood, 80 fitchburg and 76 worcester. Its upper 70s for the cape and the islands. And you my friends over the cape and the islands are probably one of the dryer spots today. Tonight though we have that threat for some passing showers, in fact, increasing showers from west to east during the overnight hours. Temperatures are going to teeter right around the 70 degrees mark, so its going to be really warm and muggy tonight. And then tomorrow, we dont have clouds that its going to be raining, so im going to give us a lot of midtoupper 70s here. We have the potential for some heavy rain, even some thunder and lightning along with storms. Sevenday forecast for the weekend always in view, i said withe are slowly going to clear out here on tuesday. Your high is 83 degrees. Wednesday, looking gorgeous. 82 and mostly sunny and for the first day of fall here on thursday, 77 with just scattered clouds. Next rain after that, possible late friday night into saturday morning.
