A beautiful start to the weekend with lots of sunshine and warm temperatures. Sunshine will be the theme this afternoon along with some fair-weather clouds, a thin layer of smoke from the western and Canadian wildfires in the mid to upper levels of the atmosphere may dim out the sun a shade. Highs reach the low 80s, localized sea breezes nudge down temps a couple degrees at the coast.
An upper-level system works through New England Sunday, but not all is lost as the threat for showers across southern New England will be on the low side, higher across the northland.
