The Heat is On

Sweatin' to the 90s!

That's going to be the case as we wrap up June and July makes its debut.  Today is likely beginning of heat wave 2 of 2012.

A brief shower or storm will blow by this morning as a warm front is making itself known across southern New England.

Then, the heat begins to surge!

This afternoon will be mostly sunny with the slightest chance of a spot storm late in the afternoon.

Highs will be in the lower to middle 90's today. The exception will be the South Coast, Cape, and Islands as winds originating from the southwest will keep temps in the 80's there.

The end of June on Saturday will prove to be a HOT one!

Highs will be in the lower to middle 90's as the sky will be chock-full of sunshine. However, there will be a chance of a storm (about a 1 in 3 chance) starting in the evening. The threat of showers and storms will continue into early Sunday morning.

Clouds will be departing on Sunday morning.

The afternoon will be partly cloudy with just a slight chance of an isolated storm. Highs are going to be near 90.  What a weekend!

Monday will bring us a chance of scattered showers and storms along with high temperatures returning to the 80's.

Tuesday is looking partly cloudy. Highs will be in the lower 80's.

The 4th of July is looking good for the most part.  It will be partly cloudy for most of the day with a chance of storms in the evening. Highs will be in the lower to middle 80's. This forecast will need some fine-tuning as newer model runs become available.

*Next Full Moon--> Tuesday, July 3 @ 2:51pm...Full 'Buck or Thunder' Moon

Happy FRRRiday! Have a fantastic weekend!
