Any storms have the potential to bring damaging winds, hail, and torrential downpours. There is also a low but not zero risk for a tornado (about 2% as of now).

What time will storms start?
After starting the day with some early morning showers, we’ll get a lull before a round of scattered showers, and storms move in early to mid-afternoon. The line of showers and storms will then move east into the evening.
The time to watch for potential storms is 2 p.m. to 9 p.m.
CBS Boston
It will be much warmer and more humid on Sunday as well, with highs climbing near 90° and dew points into the 70s, providing the juice and instability for storms.
CBS Boston
Lingering showers on Monday
We’ll have a slight chance for a few lingering showers on Monday, but overall, we are looking at a much drier and nicer day followed by increasing temperatures mid-week as we approach the 4th of July holiday! Sunday will be a day to watch the radar.
The NEXT Weather Team will be following the storms all day long on WBZ.com, WBZ-TV, and CBS News Boston.
