With a summer washed out by rain and damaging thunderstorms, plus hazy conditions due to western wildfires, Monday’s sun with a high near 80 degrees is welcome.
That weather, according to the National Weather Service, will continue into Tuesday. But after that, things may start to take a downward turn.
Thursday and Friday have “the greatest risk for some showers,” the service said.

Looks to have the highest chance of rain this week. A front lifting up from the south may focus the heaviest rain in SE MA especially Cape Cod (where it has been much drier than everywhere else) #WCVB pic.twitter.com/0OkyFA5jqF
Pleasant weather next few days…frontal boundary nears the Cape later Wednesday and brings rain chances especially to SE MA pic.twitter.com/1gmJx1oYOE
