From Heat to Storms

3 weeks ago | whdh.com | Chris Lambert

Summer session was on full blast yesterday as many towns and cities easily achieved their hottest day of the year so far. Although the official reading (At Logan Airport) fell just shy of 90 for Boston, plenty of parts of the city away from the waters edge hit it and most towns and cities just off the coast achieved low to mid 90s for highs. A summer scorcher for sure. Today, we’re off to a warm and humid start with temps near 70.
Heat Peaks today

Aside from a smoky haze to the sky, yesterday offered some nice summery weather as humidity stayed in check while temperatures rose up into the mid 80s. Today, we’ll dial it up another notch or two with temps pressing 90-94 inland, 80s along the coast. While a smoky haze will still be apparent, it won’t be quite as thick as yesterday. Much of the smoke again today is above the surface, although a bit of it is near surface.
Summer’s Surge, Smoky Skies

A smoky sunrise kicked off this morning as temps start the day on the comfortable side with lower humidity still in place. The atmosphere however is primed to warm up, and warm up quickly. We’ll head to the 85-90 degree range this afternoon with a dry day under a smoky, hazy sun. It’ll be cooler across Cape Ann and Cape Cod. In terms of the smoke, most of it is aloft and not near surface, so it’s not adding to substantial air quality issues near the ground.
Summer Surge, Smoky Sky

After a comfy cool start, temps jump up quickly today with low humidity and a lot of sunshine in place. Temps this afternoon near 80 inland and will hold near 70 along the coast with a sea breeze kicking in. As we get close to sunset, more smoke in the sky starts to advance in, allowing for a colorful sunset on that western horizon. Tonight, it’s comfortable again with lows in the 50s.
Cool Now, Then Suddenly Summer

A cool breeze prevailed Sunday as temps held in the 60s through the afternoon. This morning, the cooler than average air lingers as morning temps start off in the 40s to low 50s. The bounce back today is nice under a partly to mostly sunny sky as temperatures head back into the lower 70s. Beautiful for the ball fields this afternoon for the kids with all those after school sports. Also a great day to get some yard work done if you have the day off… or make a tee time.
Unsettled Weekend Start

We’ll dial up the temps a bit more again today with highs pushing in the mid to upper 70s this afternoon under a mix of sun and clouds. Low clouds and cooler temps will be felt near the south coast. While a good portion of the day is dry, occasional spotty showers sprout up. Most of them this afternoon and most of them north and west of I-95. Rain chances ramp up late tonight and early Saturday morning with widespread showers/embedded thunder and localized downpours likely.

It’s another Thursday with clouds and some rain, but this Thursday is nowhere near the cold rain and wind we had last Thursday. Spotty showers this morning into midday taper off to a mainly dry mid to late afternoon for many. That means while the ball fields will be damp, there’s a decent shot the kids get in the afternoon sports. Some breaks of sun are even possible mid to late afternoon. Temps today run from near 60 across the Southeast Mass coast to 65-70 inland.

Weather so nice, we’ll do it twice. Temps today will head back into the mid 70s to lower 80s again today with comfortable amounts of humidity. That provides a very similar feel to the air as yesterday. The difference today will be an increase deck of mid to high level clouds, but overall, it’ll be another very nice late May day. Clouds thicken tonight and we’ll track some showers moving in after midnight. These scattered showers linger into tomorrow morning.

Finally! Some sunshine breaking out and milder air moving in for the end of the long holiday weekend did provide some nice weather for the Memorial Day ceremonies, parades and cookouts. Temps even warmed up to near or above 70 for most spots away from the coast. Today, we’ll step it up another notch and send temps close to 80 inland and just a bit cooler along the immediate coast. Sunshine wins out this morning with partly cloudy skies this afternoon.

No doubt the pattern has been a struggle as of late as temps have barely cracked 60 the last two afternoons. Even with that said, that was much improved vs. the previously several days when we we stuck in the 40s and 50s. Today, we’ll step it up a couple notches. Sure, it’s cool early this morning, but with enough sunshine, we’ll near 70 inland this afternoon and run 60-65 near the coast.
