Still on the warm side as high pressure stubbornly hangs on to control of New England weather for another day. Afternoon highs pop into the upper 70’s under mostly sunny skies, but some late afternoon and evening cloud cover rolls in ahead of an advancing cold front.Evening los in the mid 50’s with a westerly breeze gusting to 20 mph.

It’s an “A” day!

A cold front enters the area and with it some light rain and pockets of higher intensity showers built in from time to time. Rain should start around noon and carry through the evening into Sunday night. Afternoon highs reach only the mid 50’s bookended by lows in the upper 40’s with a light northeasterly breeze.

It’s a “C” day!
