It was another beautiful day Sunday as high pressure anchored over the eastern seaboard continued to provide us with sunny, warm, and dry conditions. There was lots of sunshine to be had this afternoon with a stronger wind from the west helping nudge temperatures up a few more degrees than Saturday.
A frontal boundary north of New England my produce a rogue shower across the crown of Maine this afternoon, but the rest of New England stays dry with a few high, thin clouds spilling through the area. Overall, it’ll be a fantastic day for the Head of the Charles with temperatures in the low 70s! Highs will be mostly in the low to mid 70s, upper 60s higher elevations northern New England, and 60s across the Cape and Islands.
