There’s more rain on the way, but the weekend won’t be a washout.
We hope you enjoyed the nice weather today, because changes are coming quickly. Clouds quickly move in this evening ahead of a cold front, with some showers likely overnight and into Friday morning. The rain should end before midday as a wave of low pressure riding along the front moves offshore, but northeast winds off the still-chilly Atlantic will keep plenty of clouds around, with some drizzle and another shower or two possible, especially in eastern portions of the region. Temperatures will also be about 15-20 degrees cooler than today, likely staying in the 40s and lower 50s, especially north of the Mass Pike, but south of there, the warmer air may hang around especially during the morning if the cold front moves though a little slower. We’ll see a little clearing for Saturday as high pressure tries to build in, which will allow temperatures to moderate a little, but another front quickly follows for Sunday, with another round of showers, mainly during the morning hours. Some gusty winds are possible again behind the front later Sunday. By Monday, high pressure will try to start building in, but we’ll still be dealing with low pressure moving into Atlantic Canada. The result will be more clouds (with some sunshine), along with breezy and chilly conditions. In other words, typical mid-March weather.
