I think today is beautiful, but this is COC now?

I bet 72/52 may even feel a bit chilly to some after recent acclimation biasing -

Heh... too bad we couldn't move the snow temperature from 32 to 52, huh

The 18z HRRR up'ed the ante big time.  The two versions of the RRFS are have the same idea w/ one max swrn CT (what else is new) and another near former stomping ground of @CoastalWx (GHG).

NAM/HRRR/RRFS show a weak sfc/925 low developing near the S coast and takes its time moving E, so we get comma head backlash in ern MA.  There is a stronger upstream 500 trof moving into the Great Lakes by early Sat, and that would tend to move things along.  However, the system impacting SNE has little in the way of reflection at 500.  It's all low-level, so standard trof "kicker" rules may not apply here.

Weymouth 6" special like last year????

Really starting to think alot of these GFS "canes" are a mere factor of a heavy climatological skew so the GFS just wants to pump out hurricanes. 

Where has you been?    Long-known GFS gets TC spin-up happy after a week.  Has been that way for over 10 years.
 

If I had a dime for every time the GFS LR hit New England w/ a hurricane in the last 20 years?

Should be some nice dews, maybe a few showers.  Solid weekend

That complex tomorrow will take the moisture with it. Have a hard time seeing that little low cause all that up here.

Both RRFSs show a 4" max near GHG.  That's not nothing special!

Another sneaky warm day today. Saw some low 90s at local stations around area.

@CoastalWx mode -- downplay by default.  I know this attitude b/c if one does not get excited at all and dismisses, then less disappointment.  But if it does occur, that makes for good.
 

It would nice if you could provide more than EEYORE-natured one-liners.  I guess that's what nearly 178k posts do, makes one jaded and worn out!
