Spotty severe storm today as it stays hazy, hot, humid
Happy Thursday! We're almost to Friday, and like a broken record, we're turning active again. Our late week forecast will feature a one-two punch of strong to severe storms, and it all begins today. This morning, it's warm and muggy with hazy sunshine and dissipating dense fog. No need to bundle up for readings that are starting off in the 60s/70s. However, please take it easy in those areas of lower visibility and be mindful of today's 'Moderate' Air Quality Index.
Highs will scoot back into the upper 70s to middle 80s. Dew point temperatures will rise into the mid 60s and south winds will become a bit more blustery as a cold front arrives this afternoon. Those weather ingredients will help to stir up a marginal risk for isolated severe storms. Any one storm will present with torrential downpours, strong winds, and the potential for small hail. That storm threat will diminish after sunset with a leftover shower past midnight. Lows will dip into the 60s.
We're close to 80 again by Friday afternoon. However, our cold front from today will start to stall out in southern New England. That stalled boundary will help to initiate another marginal risk for severe storms from central to southern Vermont and the Upper Valley. Once that first round of active weather passes through, a more consolidated low pressure system will impact the North Country and Upper Valley for Saturday.
Saturday is not a complete wash of a day, but it will feature periods of rain and embedded downpours. Near seasonable high temperatures in the lower to middle 70s are expected Saturday and even Sunday as the showers start to wind down. Stay safe, dry, and weather aware over the next 72 hours, friends!
