Bostonians basking in a warm sunny weekend can anticipate even more cozy conditions as the week progresses. The forecast, courtesy of the National Weather Service, promises a high near 70 degrees today with calm winds shifting westerly. The clear, starry skies tonight will see temperatures drop to a mild 46 degrees.
Those out and about enjoying the storied Head of the Charles Regatta today will experience optimal conditions with sun-drenched days stretching well into Sunday, when temperatures are expected to climb into the low 70s. According to a report by NBC Boston, this area of high pressure is keeping the rainy days at bay, at least for now.
The forthcoming weekdays herald a continuation of this balmy trend with Monday promising afternoon highs soaring into the mid-70s. Similar conditions are forecasted for Tuesday and Wednesday, with a high near 71 and 74 degrees, respectively, ensuring the workweek is kissed by the warmth of an enduring sun.
However, the weather narrative takes a turn on Thursday when a cold front is slated to roll in, escorting clouds and potential showers. NBC Boston observes the likelihood of much-needed rain since parts of the Greater Boston area, including southern New Hampshire, are currently struggling with moderate drought conditions. The post-frontal passage dips Friday's high to a brisk 55 degrees, initiating a modest cooldown with a continued sunny disposition.
As the week wraps up, Boston will transition from balmy to brisky with the weekend setting the thermometers to hover in the mid-50s, offering a crisp finale to a week that started on a warmer note. People can enjoy clear, crisp conditions even as they prepare to bid the 70-degree weather a fond farewell.
