Clouds Increase This Afternoon, Cold Front Brings Rain

Clouds will continue to increase this afternoon and thicken, ahead of a weak cold front that will trigger some showers especially across Southern New England around dinner time.

This front will stall, and it will bring on and off showers Monday evening. We will then have an area of low pressure develop along the front that may bring a better chance for rain Tuesday night into Wednesday.

We turn mostly sunny on Thursday with highs in the 60s to around 70 and then by Friday, there’s a chance a coastal storm develops off the Mid-Atlantic which could bring rain and wind.

As of today, the storm is tracking well to our south which means the rain could be out by Saturday morning.
