On balance, you should expect a partly to mostly sunny week, although smoke from the Canadian wildfires will be prevalent at least on Monday. And depending on the upper-level flow, the smoke could last into Tuesday as well.

Monday appears to be the warmest of the next five days with temperatures up near 90 in the afternoon. A sea breeze may keep temperatures in the low to mid-80s right at the beaches, especially after 2 p.m.
The dew points across Boston will be mostly comfortable this week.

General high pressure will keep the Northeast mostly dry Monday, even with a weak front up north.

Tuesday through Saturday features temperatures in the low to mid-80s with warmer conditions toward Sunday.
Because the wind will be light, we will often see an easterly sea breeze in the afternoon, putting temperatures back to the upper 70s at those beaches. With the strong sunshine, it still feels great to be by the water.

Monday marks the first day with the sunsets before 8 p.m. in Boston, although you've got a couple of more days if you go west to Worcester, Springfield, or the Berkshires. Nevertheless, we are losing over 2 minutes of daylight each day, and sunrises are also getting later and reach 6 a.m. in about another two-and-a-half weeks.
