“There are now twice as many nights when temperatures don’t drop below 70 degrees” in Boston and the heat will get worse “even under best-case scenarios for global warming.” At the end of the last century, “from 1971-2000, Massachusetts logged an average of four days above 90 degrees” per year. Looking ahead, annual 90-degree scorchers are projected to range from 10 to 28 days by mid-century, before reaching 13 to 56 days by 2099.
