The NWS is predicting a high of 68 tomorrow for Boston and 90 for Hartford. That's quite the temperature contrast.
Backdoor Cold Front. Doesn't look like many are invited to the party. See Discussion.

***Large high temperature range today from the mid to upper 60s across northeast MA to perhaps the lower 90s in the lower CT River valley***
***Hit and miss showers/t-storms will be confined to portions of the
interior this afternoon and especially across western MA***
7 AM Update...Not much change from the 4 AM forecast. The back door front remains roughly across central Massachusetts at this time. Low clouds have pushed into much of eastern and central
Massachusetts. While low sun angle at this hour makes it difficult
to make out the thickness of the clouds on the satellite, believe
there will be some erosion of the low clouds at the edges at
least. Made minor updates to the sky cover and temperature
forecasts. Otherwise, the forecast is on track.
Back door cold front has already slipped into north central and northeastern MA very early this morning. This front will continue to push southwest this morning, but lose its punch and even start to washout across the interior this afternoon.
A scattered to broken deck of low clouds will overspread a good
portion of our region this morning, especially in northeast MA.
Should see this batch of low clouds begin to erode from southwest to northeast during the afternoon under the strong late May sun angle.
The result will be a large range in afternoon high temps.
This year... after a long stretch of warmth, makes you think "we're in a warm pattern, no cold around". Arctic blast comes. After a lot of cold, hot blast comes in.
Possible thunderstorms could make the day more interesting. House doesn't feel hot this morning, pleasant temperatures outside. Big diurnal range in recent days, though 25°F isn't that big compared to some previous days
I dont see a warmup. Was 68 at midnight 69 at 5am. If you're talking about 1-2 degrees from 3-5am that's pretty normal to fluctuate 1-2 degrees but I'm going to say the clouds helped? Notice it was fair, then the clouds moved in which didn't allow a drop?
