Boston, Mass. – Morning rain will give way to sun and clouds this afternoon as temperatures climb into the low to mid-80s across much of Massachusetts. Higher humidity will add to the heat, though coastal communities from New Bedford to Provincetown will feel cooler with steady onshore breezes.
According to the National Weather Service in Boston, drier skies will dominate later today, though areas along the South Coast, Cape Cod, and the Islands may see patchy fog overnight. Temperatures tonight will drop into the mid-60s statewide, with the coolest readings closer to the shoreline.
Commuters should expect damp spots early but improving road conditions through the afternoon. Travelers heading toward Cape Cod and Martha’s Vineyard this evening should remain alert for reduced visibility due to fog. Residents are advised to keep air conditioners running and stay hydrated during peak afternoon heat, especially inland where humidity levels will be highest.
The next several days will bring a mix of warmth and variable cloud cover, with periodic showers possible late in the weekend.
