95 on my porch thermometer. Shaded but not a great unit. 
 

my car thermo was reading 100-102 as I was going past KFIT so 95-97 seems likely there.

Logan bouncing between 95 and 97 is impressive on a 190 wind

Yeah. I saw that 97.  Sweet for the middle of the harbor.  Winds make all the difference.  It was upper 60s there yesterday 

[CT Valley Snowman]

Hit 96 here.

Family bbq at MIL house on Saturday at 1 PM.  Pool, BBQ, outdoor games.  I'd take 65 and mostly cloudy/ party sunny and run.  The pool will be confined to the kids.  At least they have a warm water connection for outside for the pool.

gotta a be record somewhere in the area.  I think ORH was *92 and last check they were 93 so have to officiate but there you go.

Edit, that's not the airport above.     The AP is only 90, so far

BOS may have tied the all time May record high of 97°

[dendrite]

BDL and MHT have records too

[NoCORH4L]

Storms starting to popalop. I'm in Tip's town RN and it's starting to look ominous.

Too much dry air for now, convection looks flaccid.
