By the afternoon, with the help of a west-southwest breeze (gusts in the teens and 20s today) and tons of sunshine, we&#8217;ll be in the low to mid 70s. A few spots, largely in Norfolk and Middlesex Counties, even have a shot at the upper 70s.

The day will be mostly to partly sunny, but thanks to a back-door cold front (essentially a cold front that moves east to west instead of west to east), the coast will be cooler. It&#8217;s all relative though, as even those &#8220;cooler&#8221; spots will still be in the mid to upper 60s. A few coastal towns could even hit 70. Inland, temperatures will be between 75-80 degrees.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"722\" height=\"399\" src=\"https:\/\/whdh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/05\/6edb1876-ca69-451c-9641-3ce40fbb0f10.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1884180\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>However, let me just say that I think there is such thing as too much of a good thing.
