Some milder weather is on the way for part of the weekend, but so is some precipitation.

High pressure builds in with some drier and cooler weather tonight into the first part of Saturday, though we’ll still see some clouds and possibly a rain or snow shower Friday afternoon with an upper-level low nearby. Clouds start to increase later on Saturday as low pressure moves out of the Great Lakes and towards New England. Some rain will move in Saturday evening, but temperatures may be marginally cool enough north and west of Boston for the precipitation to start as a little snow or sleet, before quickly changing to rain as temperatures rise overnight. The rain ends by midday Sunday, then we’ll start to clear out in the afternoon as the system pulls away. As it intensifies in Gulf of Maine, gusty winds will usher cooler air back in later Sunday and Monday.
