High pressure over eastern Canada will give us a light onshore flow of air. High temperatures with mostly cloudy skies will be a little lower than the last two days with highs mostly in the low 80s. Humidity levels will still be on the low side with dew points near 60. Skies will again be hazy from the Canadian wildfires.
The high pressure will move off the New England coast Thursday and Friday giving us a continued light onshore wind. High temperatures will continue to be slightly below normal with low humidity.
The weekend looks to be dry with a slight warming trend but the humidity will stay on the low side. We should have plenty of sunshine both days.
Hot and more humid weather returns next week as the high pressure moves off the coast and we will have more of a southwest wind. High temperatures much of next week will be in the 90s.
