October summer lovin’ continues Wednesday, but big changes are on the way

After a chilly morning in the 40s, much of Southern New England hit 80 degrees Tuesday afternoon.

Wednesday will essentially be a carbon copy, so perhaps one last chance to enjoy all that the beach has to offer – water temps are still in the mid/upper 60s.

Speaking of water temperatures, winds will begin to turn more southeast on Thursday, bringing in some cooler air. Clouds will also start to build on Friday in advance of a cold front.

That means, you guessed it, more rain on Saturday! That rolls into the west, but we are also keeping an eye to the east as the remnants of currently Tropical Storm Phillipe pass east of us.

This would cause some elevates surf and windy coastal conditions, but not to the level of Hurricane Lee. It will also push rain into coastal New England north of Boston.

Behind the cold front lies significantly cooler air. By Monday, highs may not get out of the 50s! A snap back to reality.
