September Ends Warm and Dry: What to Expect in Greater Boston’s Weather This Week

This week’s weather forecast for Greater Boston is signaling a shift towards a milder climate, following a soaking rain that poured in late last week. As we wrap up September, residents can anticipate a warm and dry end to the month, continuing into the start of October. Compared to the cooler and rainy spells typical of this time of year, this week is shaping up to feel more like summer in San Diego rather than autumn in New England.

Detailed Weather Forecast for Greater Boston

As we look ahead to the week, weather differences between Monday and Tuesday, as well as Wednesday and Thursday, will be minimal. Key factors to note include daily high and low temperatures, cloud cover, and wind direction. Here’s a breakdown of what to expect:

  • Monday: Sunny skies with a high between 75°F and 80°F.
  • Tuesday: Partly cloudy with temperatures in the low to mid-70s.
  • Midweek (Wednesday & Thursday): Cooler temperatures in the 60s, but plenty of sunshine.
  • Weekend Outlook: A warm return with highs in the 70s to 80s and abundant sunshine.

Historical Context: Unusual Warmth for September

This September stands out in terms of temperature. Historically, Boston hasn’t reached above 70°F on the last two days of September since 2020. The 30-year average for this period typically hovers in the upper 60s. For comparison, the record high of 88°F was observed on September 29, 1952, underscoring how exceptional this year’s warmth feels.

The Upcoming Weekend: Perfect for Outdoor Plans

As the week progresses, expect a return to warmer weather over the weekend. Here’s how different regions in Massachusetts and nearby areas will experience the upcoming days:

Southeastern Mass. Mid-70s Low 70s
Central/Western Mass. Mid-70s Mid-70s
Cape and Islands Around 75°F Low 70s

New Hampshire Near 80°F Mid-70s

Coastal Influences: Hurricane Humberto’s Path

In addition to local weather patterns, Hurricane Humberto remains a significant storm in the South Atlantic, tracking north and curving toward Bermuda. While its impact on our area is minimal, it may generate rough surf along the coastline in the coming days.
