MORE RAIN OVERNIGHT
Clouds will build overnight as lows drop into the middle to lower 60s. We will likely not see rain in Massachusetts until after midnight tonight, starting in the western and central part of the state. Boston will likely start seeing rain around 2 or 3 AM, with the steadiest and heaviest of showers moving in before sunrise.
The bulk of the rain will move offshore around mid-to-late morning, allowing conditions to gradually improve. That said, the atmosphere will remain somewhat unsettled through the afternoon, so a few isolated showers or even a spot thunderstorm cannot be ruled out. By the end of tomorrow most regions will end up with less than a half an inch of rain.
Despite the clouds, temperatures will climb into the upper 70s Thursday afternoon. It’s also going to be quite muggy with dewpoints in the upper 60s and lower 70s.

LONG WEEKEND
Friday will be the warmest day of the stretch. While a mix of clouds and sunshine is expected, temperatures will reach the low 80s and it will still be humid.
The start of the Labor Day weekend brings a slight cooldown. Saturday features highs in the mid 70s under mostly cloudy skies, and a few showers will be possible in the evening but most of us will remain dry. It won’t be a washout!
Sunday will feature more sunshine and comfortable temperatures. Highs will be in the low 70s with lower humidity.
Labor Day itself is shaping up nicely. Monday will be bright with highs in the mid 70s, a pleasant finish to the long holiday weekend.
