If you stepped outside today and thought, “Wait… is it July?” — you’re not alone. Boston is enjoying a rare and gloriously warm Saturday, with highs reaching into the low 80s. It’s the kind of day that makes you want to cancel your to-do list and just bask in the sunshine.
But before you break out the flip-flops for good, just know: this little heatwave is short-lived.
Saturday: Warm, Breezy, and Maybe a Sprinkling of Rain
Today’s sunshine comes with a side of gusty southwest winds — and maybe, just maybe, a light shower late in the day. It won’t be a washout, but if you’re out and about into the evening, it wouldn’t hurt to have a rain jacket handy… just in case.
Sunday: Hello Spring, Goodbye Heat
By Sunday, things start feeling a bit more normal for April. We’re talking highs in the low 60s, light winds, and partly sunny skies. It’s one of those days where a cup of coffee outside or a walk by the harbor hits just right. Cooler, sure — but calm, clear, and perfect for outdoor plans.
Monday: A Gray Start to the Week
Monday morning looks fine — maybe even a little bright — but don’t get too comfortable. Clouds will roll in, and rain is likely by evening, bringing a cooler, wetter vibe with highs in the mid-50s. It’s a good day to have your umbrella ready and maybe plan to cozy up indoors by dinnertime.
In Short:
-
Saturday: Warm, breezy, and possibly a quick shower.
-
Sunday: Cooler, calmer, and dry — a classic spring day.
-
Monday: Cloudy with a good chance of rain later on.
So get out there and soak up that sunshine while you can — spring in Boston never stays the same for long!
