For most of New England, we are enjoying a stretch of cooler and much less humid weather the few days.
With an exception though: along the south and east facing shore, where humidity has remained rather high, and we've only seen limited sunshine.
We start the day with more sunshine than clouds, parts of northern New England cooled into the lower 50s, while southern New England mostly in lower 60s. Patchy fog should burn off quickly.

We are on the cooler side of the warm front, that means many clouds south and east with a chance of a few sprinkles with temperatures in the lower 70s, warmer and brighter sky in northern and western New England.
The biggest feature on the weather map is a strong low-pressure system moving through the Great Lakes the next couple of days. That storm brings gale force winds to the lakes and pushes a warm front across New England from south to north Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday.
