.DISCUSSION...
Canadian high pressure will build across our region today and
Thursday and provide us with a return to dry weather...along with
the coolest temperatures of the fall so far. Highs today will only
reach into the 50s to lower 60s...then will not make it out of the
50s on Thursday. Additionally...some areas will see a frost or
freeze tonight...with a more widespread frost or freeze then likely
following for Thursday night. A gradual warming trend will follow
for Friday and the weekend as the high slides off the New England
coast.
