Weekend Rain And Thunderstorm Forecast Suggested Timeline. The weekend will bring our transition from late summer heat to a cool down next week. In between, we will have a few days with showers and thunderstorms that may have your weekend plans in question. There is a strong hurricane well off the East Coast, and that is NOT the reason for our rain. That will only bring high waves to the coast.

We are still holding on to relatively dry and and relatively low dew points in the mid to upper 50s. That is still keeping things rather comfortable and it is certainly better than dew points in the low 70s and temperatures in the 90s. We will see sunshine today. There have been upper troughs rotating around an upper low in Eastern Canada and you can see it clearly on the satellite loop but most of the clouds with this are well to the northeast so we should be no worse than partly sunny today and at times mostly sunny. High temperatures will be in the low to middle 80s;

We have arrived at the doorstep of the weekend and we are going to have one last day of sunshine and low humidity before things change. Satellite loops show an upper trough to the northeast over Atlantic Canada. That is slowing down the next upper trough and cold front that is moving across the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley. This leaves is in sunshine for much of the day and temperatures will be topping out in a range of 80 to 85. Dew points will remain reasonable in the mid to upper 50s. No rain is in the forecast for today and overnight. Humidity levels across the Northeast and Northern Mid Atlantic will begin rising as a southerly flow develops along the East Coast bringing in low level moisture. Saturday morning lows will be in the 60s for the most part. Now as far as the weekend goes, if you have to pick one day I would go with Saturday over Sunday.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, has recently introduced a tiny 8lb dog named Bingo who is looking for her forever home. Bingo is a 3-year-old Shih Tzu mix with an adorable appearance and a sweet disposition. However, she needs a patient and understanding owner who recognizes that "dogs are not toys, and not all dogs love to be picked up right away," explains Sandy Paws Rescue Inc. This little lady requires some decompression time upon arriving at her new home to settle in comfortably.
