HOTTEST SO FAR THIS SEASON

Although Tuesday started cool with wake-up 50s and fog, the afternoon will be hot, humid and bright. This summery feel will last for the next several days. Plan on highs in the 80s in both Boston and Worcester for the first time this year. The South Coast, Cape and Islands will be much cooler with 60s and 70s where wind is coming off the water.

Temperatures will peak tomorrow with 90 degree highs probable in the Merrimack Valley and Metro West.

STORMING IN

A cold front will interact with the warm and sticky air Thursday, leading to scattered showers and thunderstorms. Some storms may become strong to severe with locally heavy rainfall, gusty wind, and hail. We will be on ALERT and watching for those storms. You will get an alert on your device if you have the Boston25 Weather App. Keeping you safe is always our priority.

The end of the week is trending warmer but less humid. We’ll have to keep an eye on the long weekend forecast. Right now it looks like on/off clouds Saturday and Sunday with the slight chance of showers. That chance will be greatest on Memorial Day itself, something to keep in mind if you will be attending a service or event that day.
