DAYS 1-5 (JUNE 29-JULY 3)
\nWhen Independence Day falls on a Wednesday, there is a perfect reason to have TWO “Fourth of July Weekends”, and they are both included in this outlook, the first one rapidly approaching, and it will be hot and increasingly humid as an upper level high pressure ridge takes over the weather. In fact, other than the remotest risk of a shower north and west of Boston this evening with a weak disturbance, I now do not see any possibility of rain for the remainder of this period, just plenty of heat, although there will be episodes of cooling sea breezes in some coastal areas, especially Sunday and Monday as it stands now. Forecast details…
\nTODAY: Sunshine, few clouds late. Highs 78-85 shorelines, 85-92 elsewhere. Wind NW up to 10 MPH with light coastal sea breezes.
\nTONIGHT: Partly cloudy evening with a slight risk of a brief shower west and north of Boston. Clearing overnight. Lows 62-69. Wind light variable.
\nSATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 76-82 Cape Cod, 80-87 South Coast, 86-93 elsewhere. Wind W to SW up to 10 MPH.
\nSATURDAY NIGHT: Mostly clear. Lows 66-75, warmest in urban areas. Wind light SW.
\nSUNDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 78-85 Cape Cod, 86-95 elsewhere. Wind SW up to 10 MPH but coastal sea breezes likely, especially east-facing shores which may drop to the 70s.
\nMONDAY: Sunny. Lows from the upper 60s to upper 70s, warmest urban areas. Highs from the upper 80s to middle 90s but cooling in some coastal areas.
\nTUESDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows from the upper 60s to upper 70s, warmest urban areas. Highs from the upper 80s to middle 90s, coolest coastal areas.<\/p>\n
DAYS 6-10 (JULY 4-8)
\nMore heat and humidity, but the thunderstorm chance may increase somewhat toward the end of the period as the ridge center shifts a little to the west and a disturbance or two get closer to the region.<\/p>\n
DAYS 11-15 (JULY 9-13)
\nLess heat, back to more seasonable temperatures as the ridge backs up further west and a couple disturbances move through with shower and thunderstorm chances.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
