Summer’s Surge

What a week we’ve had and what a day we have ahead of us! In the summer, this would be a fantastic pool or beach day. In April, it’s a great day for a walk on beach or to lay outside, but this early in the season, the pools are still closed and those ocean temps are awfully cold. None the less, let’s enjoy the nice summery weather ahead. Lunch or dinner outside would be great as well. Abundant sunshine wins out through the day as temps surge well into the 80s. Upper 80s will be common away from the immediate coast, but even in and around Boston, the west wind may be strong enough to hold temps well into the 80s too. Cape Ann and Cape Cod will be cooler, but still nice for mid April. UV index is high, so if you’re lounging outside for a while, sunscreen it up. The sun angle in mid April is similar to that of late August. The record to beat in Boston is 86, we’ll be close if that west wind holds. There’s no red flag warning today since the breeze is...
