.DISCUSSION...   

High pressure south of the Maritimes will move father offshore 
tonight leading to an increased risk for showers across the western 
half of southern New England. The risk of showers will slowly spread 
east across eastern sections later Thursday and Thursday night. 

Minimum relative humidity values will be 70 to 85 percent on 
Thursday. Southeast winds will be less than 20 mph both days.

OUTLOOK...Friday through Tuesday...

A slow-moving cold front crosses the region Friday and moves east 
out to sea on Saturday. This will bring showers and embedded 
thunderstorms along with heavy downpours. A few leftover showers are 
possible Sunday. Unsettled weather sticks around early next week 
with seasonable temperatures late this weekend into Tuesday.
