CHANGES TUESDAY
Clouds and higher humidity return today. After a dry morning, expect scattered thunderstorms and downpours this afternoon and evening. Storms will be capable of producing torrential rain, lightning, and wind damage. We have a low risk for an isolated storm in southern New England.
The most active weather will arrive in Boston after 5 PM and may not peak until 8 PM - midnight. That timeline may waiver slightly but does look fairly late in the day.
Although and isolated thunderstorm may linger over Cape Cod or southeastern MA in the morning, most will start the day dry Wednesday. Afternoon storm cover will be less than Tuesday. Still, those hit-or-miss storms could pack a punch with more downpours and gusty wind. It will be quite warm and muggy.
PLEASANT END TO THE WEEK
Behind Wednesday’s afternoon cold front, the weather turns much more pleasant for the second half of the week. Sunshine returns along with lower humidity, making it feel much more comfortable with afternoon highs remaining in the 80s.
