A few showers
UNDER THE CLOUDS Wednesday and Thursday will see unsettled weather AT TIMES. Neither day will be a washout. In fact, most of the time it will be dry under mainly cloudy skies. The best shot for a little rain today will be in the morning, especially along and south of the MA Pike. Thunderstorms will pop up in NY and western New England this afternoon, but I’m not expecting much locally. Keep your outdoor plans and be ready for elevated humidity and highs in the low to mid 70s.

Tomorrow will be hotter too! Get set for highs in the lower 80s. FRIDAY & THE WEEKEND
