Heat & humidity returns to the region today as temps warm into the mid to upper 90s. This combined with dewpoints in the 70s will result in heat index values between 95-102F. Make sure you beat the heat. Follow those safety rules, check on your neighbors & don't forget your pets.

Headed out of state this weekend? Don't buy #fireworks legally in other states and then bring home with you, All consumer fireworks are #illegal in MA. Many people have lost both their money and their fireworks (not to mention their fingers). ow.ly/iQdi30kpFth
