Sizzling & Harmful – Boston Information, Climate, Sports activities

Like Ke$ha as soon as famously mentioned, “scorching and harmful”, and that’s actually the vital factor to underscore with at the moment’s warmth. Sure, I do know it’s summer season however the warmth that’s on faucet for at the moment is uncommon warmth for New England, even in the summertime. Most of us ought to be capable to attain 100° at the moment, with appears like temperatures as excessive as 110°. Even the Cape, the place we sometimes discover aid may see appears like temperatures as excessive as 102° this afternoon.

I’m going with a forecast excessive in Boston of 101° at the moment, which might shatter the day by day document (document excessive temperature for June twenty fourth) which presently stands at 95° set again in 2013. Additionally on the desk is hottest June temperature on document. Proper now, that document stands at 100°, set most not too long ago in 2021 (it’s occurred just a few occasions).

So when is the aid? Properly, we begin to work in cooler air tomorrow, nevertheless it’s a gradual course of. We’ll have one other scorching day tomorrow, nevertheless it’s not today-level warmth. We’ll nonetheless climb to the 90s nevertheless it’s quite a bit higher than at the moment. We’ll additionally carry just a few storms into the combination tomorrow afternoon and night.
