New York, Boston Weather Forecast: Temperatures Likely to Soar Midweek as Unofficial Summer Begins

Northeast residents can expect possible hotter temperatures this week, particularly in portions of Boston and New York City. Additionally, warmer temperatures indicate the unofficial start of summer in the U.S.

In an NWS Weather Prediction Center report, hotter temperatures could unload in South Florida and southern Texas, including in the southern High Plains.
