Boston, Mass. – Clear skies and comfortable warmth will dominate much of Massachusetts through midweek, offering residents several days of seasonable late-summer weather before conditions turn unsettled.
According to the National Weather Service in Boston, high pressure will keep skies mostly sunny Tuesday through Thursday, with daytime highs ranging from the mid-70s along the coast to low 80s inland. Winds will stay light, and humidity will remain manageable until late Thursday night.
By Friday morning, an approaching cold front will draw in higher humidity and trigger a chance of showers and isolated thunderstorms. The first round of rain is most likely after 8 a.m., with gusty winds up to 24 mph possible in some areas. Though not a washout, commuters in Boston, Worcester, and Springfield should prepare for slick roads and brief travel slowdowns.
Beachgoers and outdoor event planners across Cape Cod and the Islands should take advantage of the dry stretch through Thursday, as Friday’s unsettled weather may disrupt plans. Officials urge residents to keep devices charged in case of isolated power outages tied to stronger storms.
Showers could linger into Saturday before cooler, drier air returns by Sunday.
