RI Weekend Weather Wrap – Sat/Sun, July 4/5, 2020

by Jack Donnelly, meteorologist

The slightly cooler trend continues for the holiday weekend.

Saturday 7/4/20:

We’ll have some patchy morning fog to deal with mainly along the coastline and a few miles inland that will burn off by mid morning. We’ll then have some filtered sun to start that will eventually open up in the afternoon. Morning lows in the mid 60’s will rise to the upper 70’s with a light southeasterly breeze.

Sunday 7/5/20:

Similarly to the 4th, patchy morning fog burns off in the morning with lows in the mid 60’s. Winds shift to southwesterly in the afternoon as a cold front develops well to our north, so increasing cloud cover is likely later in the day, but any shower activity should remain to our north. Afternoon highs climb again only to the upper 70’s
