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.

We may have a few high, thin, wispy clouds moving to the area, but it’s looking fantastic, especially for the Head of the Charles in the lower 70s today.

This will likely be our last stretch of 70-degree weather for quite a while.
