HIGHS TODAY…
Running well above average for early June once again. Around 90° inland but a light sea breeze keeps it in the 80s near the coast with 70s on Cape Cod. Hazy sun with the risk of late day/evening storms #WCVB pic.twitter.com/bQw9NwxPQc

T-STORM RISK LATE DAY-EVENING…
Showers and t-storms will start popping up 2-3pm with the greatest coverage N&W. A few storms could produce gusty winds and poor drainage flooding.
Storm chances go up in Boston and eastern MA toward 7pm weakening to showers tonight #WCVB pic.twitter.com/NBWLGF4yRy

SATURDAY…
Is cloudy and MUCH COOLER with highs only in the 50s. Some lingering rain in the morning then most the day is dry #WCVB pic.twitter.com/QdLNNH2MQD

SUNDAY…
Forecast hinges of position of low pressure offshore to determine the extent of rain. If farther offshore, we could miss out. Right now, best chance of showers is closer to the coast #WCVB pic.twitter.com/u6J3MQ5PYq

NEXT 7 DAYS…
One more hot day- then much cooler pattern settles in. Showers/storms this evening weaken to showers overnight. Cloudy and cool weekend in the 50s. Rain early Saturday then drier. Rain Sunday will depend on how close offshore storm spins- could trend drier #WCVB pic.twitter.com/DWO7NXKhZs

A small shift in low pressure this Sunday is the difference between dry/cloudy conditions or steady rain… It’s a close call right now in #boston #newengland #mawx @boston25 pic.twitter.com/ZXdGOg8HuO

Scattered storms develop this afternoon. Most widespread inland early to mid afternoon. Gusty winds, downpours and lightning are the main risks. Storms move slow, so localized street flooding possible. pic.twitter.com/x4ExpmUVBh
