Cool Friday for the middle of May. Only in the 50s today under mostly cloudy skies with a NE wind. Chance of a few showers midday-early afternoon but most the day is dry #WCVB pic.twitter.com/cGxp5tKPGf

Coming early next week as jet stream builds over the east. This will bring several days of 80°+ Sunday-Wednesday. Tuesday will be the hottest day with highs near 90°. Boston's average first 90 degree day in June 8th so this would be early. #WCVB pic.twitter.com/HXVu9mMqdm
