Temps soar today, reaching the lower 90s for many from Boston, points north and west. The coolest locations will be across Buzzards Bay and the Cape and Islands, 70s there. With the heat, comes the humidity and the risk of late-day storms. The storm risk is mainly focused after 6pm, with the highest risk of severe (damaging wind gusts) storms between 6-9pm near and northwest of 495. The risk of strong storms is lower near Boston, points south this evening, but a few showers and storms are still possible there this evening.
Temps tomorrow run in the 80s with lowering humidity, allowing for a very pleasant day overall. Friday is dry through mid afternoon, however, some late-day rain arrives as cooler weather settles in. The weekend looks cool, in the 60s with a few showers possible from time to time, especially across Southeast Mass, but we’ll get our dry stretches too. Bottom line, while it’s not the beach weather we had last weekend, we should be able to get in some grilling. Just keep an eye on the forecast for updated shower chances going forward.
