12:43 pm
afternoon and this evening. you do notice, 4:30 this afternoon, there will be some showers and some downpours in the berkshires. the monadnock region, you may have showers early this evening. you notice at 7:00 tonight, that is about it. i think they will fall apart as they march through the worcester hills at that time. before that cool front gets here, you have a warm afternoon. our normal high is 6. we will pass that here momentarily in boston. plymouth, 68. norwood at 69. unlike yesterday, there is more humidity out there. it does feel muggy. the dew point temperatures running in the low to mid-60's. for the afternoon, a mix of clouds and sun. warm and humid. temp between 70-75. boston, 74. again, this is around the metro. saugus, melrose, lynn, swampscott. you get the gist here. low 70's. out on the cape and the islands, chatham at 69. there goes the cool front tonight. tomorrow, a mix of clouds and sunshine. not as warm.
