Bostonians got a summer teaser today, with temperatures soaring to the upper 70s along the coast and low 80s further inland. The city basked in a blend of sun and clouds on what was predicted to be the warmest day of the upcoming 10, a stark contrast to the more typical high of 66 degrees around this time of year, as reported by NBC Boston.

The summery respite is short-lived; however, with the forecast calling for cloudier skies come tomorrow, bringing Boston temperatures back down closer to seasonal norms. According to the National Weather Service, Wednesday will see a high near 74 with the south southwest wind blowing between 6 and 9 mph. Evening may usher in a 30 percent chance of showers post 9 pm, with the thermometer dipping to around 54 degrees.

Thursday's outlook hints at a 40 percent chance of rain and mostly cloudy skies, promising a cooler high near 63. The likelihood of precipitation extends into the night, with similar odds and an expected low in the low 50s. Rain could potentially stay at bay midweek, with NBC Boston reporting less than 0.25 inches expected between Wednesday and Thursday.

Friday could offer a few sunny breaks, but the forecast predominantly features clouds lingering through Saturday. The temperatures are anticipated to hover in the low to mid-60s, a notch above the dreariness of the typical November weather. As the week progresses, residents should brace for more wet conditions with a chance of rain from Saturday through the start of the new week, potentially pushing highs back up near 70 by Monday.
