New and Different...
After hitting 100+ degrees just a few short days ago, the high in Boston today was only 74 and that occurred at 10:30 this morning...much of the afternoon was in the 60s thanks to thick clouds and eventual rain! A surge of warmer air is working in a few thousand feet up and that advection is creating enough lift for some steady rain this evening...I have seen a few spots come in around .25"...so a healthy soaking for the gardens and lawns! Overnight, some thunderstorms that have developed may survive the trip into Southern New England so a few rumbles will be possible very early tomorrow morning.
After a murky and foggy start the sun will burn through on SW winds and the sun alone will shoot our temps up over 80...looking liek a warm and muggy day with highs in the mid 80s. There will be some juice for t-storms tomorrow afternoon and evening and with a solid looking vortmax and a surface front providing additional lift some of the storms will be dangerous with wind and hail.
High pressure will slide in behind the front and leave us with a couple of great Summer days with lots of sun and highs in the mid 80s...good vacation weather!
Another round of storms will be possible on Friday afternoon following that a minimal heatwave will be possible through the weekend...daon't worry, highs will only be near 90 not the 100+ we just experienced!
