Weekend Outlook: March 27-30, 2026

The final weekend of March will be mostly dry, but on the chilly side.

Drought conditions remain in place for much of the Northeast. Image provided by the National Drought Mitigation Center.

A cold front will drop southward across the region tonight, bringing some rain into the region, which is good, since we need as much as we can get with the drought ongoing. The rain will end Friday morning as the front settles offshore, then gusty northwest winds will usher much cooler air back in. Saturday will be a rather chilly day with an upper-level disturbance generating some afternoon clouds and possibly a few rain or snow showers. Temperatures will only be in the 30s, and wind chills will likely be in the 20s. High pressure then slides offshore for Sunday with sunshine and moderating temperatures, though still a little below normal for late March. We’ll continue the warmup with dry weather on Monday.
