Cool morning won't last

PROVIDENCE – It’s a pleasantly cool 66 degrees at this point – but with 88 percent humidity already and temps expected to rise to 91, the cool morning won’t last.

The National Weather Service has issued a hazardous weather outlook because if scattered thunderstorms develop this afternoon, they could produce damaging wind, hail and brief flooding from rain in poor drainage areas. We could get up to 2 inches of rain in an hour. We could have frequent lightning strikes with the more powerful storms.

Expect the morning to be foggy across eastern Massachusetts and eastern Rhode Island, with visibility along the immediate coast limited to less than one-half a mile.

Expect widespread haze today and tonight.
