Remember how great Friday was with sunshine and temperatures near or above 70? Yeah, there aren’t any days like that in this week’s forecast.

Temperatures will be 10-15 degrees below normal for much of the upcoming week. Image provided by Weathermodels.com

A frontal system is stalled out south of New England this morning and a wave of low pressure will ride along it, bringing us some precipitation. With enough cold air in place, we’ll see the precipitation start as snow this morning, mainly from the Mass Pike northward, eventually changing over to rain. With the high sun angle, and warmer ground, we’re not expecting any accumulation, except maybe in the hills of Worcester County and into the Monadnocks. Otherwise, it’s just a chilly rain today, gradually ending tonight as a cold front moves through, possibly allowing the rain to change to snow before ending. A few rain or snow showers are possible Tuesday, otherwise, drier and chillier conditions are expected for Tuesday into Wednesday with high pressure building in. Temperatures start to moderate on Thursday as the high moves offshore, but clouds will move in ahead of another system moving out of the nation’s mid-section. This will bring us some more rain Thursday night into Friday. Another slow-moving system follows for the weekend with more rain.

For now, Saturday is looking wet. Images provided by Pivotal Weather.

Monday: Cloudy with snow developing north of the Mass Pike, changing to rain during the afternoon, rain likely south of the Pike, possibly mixed with snow at the start. High 38-45.

Monday night: Cloudy with a few rain or snow showers. Low 30-37.

Tuesday: Any lingering rain or snow showers end in the morning, becoming partly sunny and breezy in the afternoon. High 39-46 early, temperatures may drop in the afternoon.

Tuesday night: Clear skies. Low 23-30.

Wednesday: Sunshine and a few clouds. High 40-47.

Wednesday night: Clear during the evening, becoming partly cloudy overnight. Low 25-32.

Thursday: Becoming mostly cloudy with showers possible late in the day. High 47-54.

Thursday night: Cloudy with a chance of showers, possibly mixed with wet snow in southern New Hampshire. Low 35-42.

Friday: Mostly cloudy with a chance of showers early, then becoming more likely by evening. High 50-57.

Saturday: Mostly cloudy with rain likely. High 48-55.

Sunday: More clouds than sun with additional rain possible. High 49-56

Temperatures will be up and down this week as a couple of systems impact the region, but the weather looks great for the Red Sox home opener at Fenway on Friday.

With a little sun temperatures could get very warm this afternoon. Image provided by WeatherBell.

The week starts off with low pressure moving into the St. Lawrence Valley dragging a warm front across the region this morning, resulting in a rather mild day, except near the South Coast, where southerly winds blowing off the still-chilly Atlantic will keep things cooler. Cloudcover will keep temperatures in the 60s away from the South Coast, but if any sunny breaks develop, we could see temperatures jump into the lower 70s inland. A few showers are possible during the day, but they’ll become more widespread by evening as a cold front approaches from the west. Rain is likely during the evening and first part of the night, with some thunderstorms possible as well, before the cold front crosses the region, bringing an end to the rain. High pressure builds in for Tuesday, with clearing skies accompanied by breezy and much cooler conditions. High pressure remains in control for the start of the day Wednesday, but clouds will quickly stream back in during the day, as a low pressure system moving into the Midwest sends a warm front our way. We’ll see showers developing ahead of the warm front Wednesday night, but across southern New Hampshire and possibly the Merrimack Valley, there may be just enough cold air in place when the precipitation moves in for some snow or sleet at the start, but we’re not expecting any accumulation. Thursday looks like another mild day with some showers possible as another cold front moves through. That front will stall out just south of New England, allowing high pressure to build in for Friday. A wave of low pressure rides along the front on Saturday, bringing clouds back in, with some showers across southern portions of the region, especially late in the day and at night. Another wave will bring in more rain on Sunday, but temperatures will be dependent on whether the front remains to our south, or that wave lifts it back northward as a warm front.

Sunday is shaping up to be another rainy day across the region. Images provided by Pivotal Weather.

The Red Sox open their home schedule at Fenway on Friday against the St. Louis Cardinals with first pitch scheduled for 2:05pm. Weather shouldn’t be an issue. Skies should be partly to mostly cloudy, winds out of the northwest at 5-10 mph, and temperatures likely near or above 60 degrees. For early April, you couldn’t ask for better baseball weather around here.

The home opener at Fenway means summer isn’t far away.

Monday: Lots of clouds and possibly a few sunny breaks, a few showers also possible, breezy, and milder. High 63-70, cooler along the South Coast and Cape Cod.

Monday night: Cloudy with rain and thunderstorms developing, ending before daybreak. Low 39-46.

Tuesday: Early clouds and a few lingering showers, mainly across Cape Cod, then becoming partly to mostly sunny in the afternoon, breezy, and cooler. High 47-54.

Tuesday night: Clear skies, some clouds may start to move back in late at night. Low 25-32.

Wednesday: Morning sun, then increasing afternoon clouds. High 41-48.

Wednesday night: Cloudy with showers developing, mainly north of the Mass Pike, possibly mixed with a little snow or sleet in southern New Hampshire. Low 31-38, temperatures may start rising after midnight.

Thursday: Cloudy, breezy, and milder with scattered showers. High 58-65, cooler along the South Coast and Cape Cod.

Thursday night: Mostly cloudy with periods of rain and showers, ending late at night. Low 48-55.

Friday: Morning clouds, some clearing in the afternoon. High 60-67, cooler across Cape Cod.

Saturday: Partly to mostly cloudy with a chance for some showers, mainly late in the day and at night, favoring areas south of the Mass Pike. High 44-51.

Sunday: Mostly cloudy with a chance of rain. High 47-54.

The last full week of March will be a reminder that although it’s now Spring, it won’t always feel that way.

High temperatures are normally close to 50 in late March. Image provided by Weathermodels.com

The week starts off with a low pressure system heading across the Great Lakes, sending some rain in for much of the day. However, in the morning, we’ll have just enough cold air in place for some snow, mainly well north and west of Boston, but there won’t be much, if any, accumulation before the change to rain, except possibly in the Worcester Hills and the Monadnocks. That system pulls away, and an upper-level low moves in for Tuesday, resulting in a cool day with clouds, and possibly a sprinkle. Another system will pass by to the south Tuesday night and Wednesday, generating some rain across Cape Cod and southeastern Massachusetts, and possibly a fit farther north and west. There could even be enough cool air in place that if the rain penetrates far enough inland it could change to snow. This is something we’ll be watching over the next day or two. High pressure builds in for Thursday with a sunny and cool day. Another cold front moves in on Friday with a few showers. The weekend looks unsettled at the moment, but full of questions marks. Another low pressure system will head into the Great Lakes, with a warm front extending eastward from it. Ahead of that front we’ll see some precipitation on Saturday, but whether it is rain or snow changing to rain remains to be seen. If the warm front moves through, then, Sunday could be a mild day, but with a cold front moving in from the west, we could see more rain showers before the day is done. If the warm front doesn’t move through, then it will be quite a bit cooler, with the potential for more rain as a wave of low pressure rides along the front to our south.

We could have some snow, rain, or both this weekend as a storm system moves in. Images provided by Pivotal Weather.

The Saturday morning forecast is of interest for another reason. We will have a partial solar eclipse at sunrise Saturday (around 6:30am), so we’re hoping for clear skies, at least on the eastern horizon. The eclipse will actually reach its maximum before sunrise, but as the sun comes up, it will be 50-70% covered by the moon until the eclipse ends just after 7:00am. We’ll keep an eye on this as the week goes on, but right now, hope for some clear skies and set your alarm to get up early on Saturday for another rare celestial event.

Monday: Cloudy with light rain likely, possibly some morning snow across southern New Hampshire and the Worcester Hills. High 44-51 south of the Mass Pike, 36-43 north of the Pike.

Monday night: Any lingering showers end in the evening, becoming partly cloudy overnight. Low 31-38.

Tuesday: Partly sunny, breezy, chance for a sprinkle. High 47-54.

Tuesday night: Partly cloudy. Low 29-36.

Wednesday: Partly to mostly cloudy, chance for rain across southeastern Massachusetts and Cape Cod, possibly some rain or snow farther inland. High 41-48.

Wednesday night: Clearing. Low 25-32.

Thursday: Sunshine and some afternoon clouds. High 42-49.

Thursday night: Partly cloudy. Low 29-36.

Friday: Partly sunny, breezy, chance for a few showers, mainly early. High 47-54.

Saturday: Partly to mostly cloudy with a chance of rain or snow. High 40-47.

Sunday: Cloudy with a chance of rain. High 41-48.

Winter officially ends later this week, but that does not mean that we are done with wintry weather.

Astronomical Spring begins with the Vernal Equinox at 5:01am Thursday. Image provided by EarthSky.org

The week is starting off on a wet, but mild note as a cold front approaches the region. Rain will taper off to showers this morning, ending this evening as the cold front moves through. The airmass behind the front isn’t that cold to begin with, so although we’ll turn cooler, it won’t be that bad. High pressure builds in for Tuesday with some sunshine and temperatures that are closer to where they should be in mid-March. By Wednesday the high will move off to the east, with a wind off the still-chilly Atlantic bringing some cooler air back in along with some clouds. Another system will also be approaching from the west, but this won’t get here until later Thursday, which happens to be the first day of Spring. The Vernal Equinox occurs at 5:01am Thursday, marking the official end of winter. This front will bring in some rain late Thursday and Thursday night. A wave of low pressure will ride up along the front early Friday, bringing in just enough colder air for the rain to change to snow across the interior before ending. Will there be any accumulation? It’s possible, but it’s still a bit early for that, as we’re not even completely convinced yet that the rain will even change to snow. More details on this system will be forthcoming in our Weekend Outlook on Thursday. High pressure builds in with drier weather later Friday and early Saturday, then another weak system passes by to the south later Saturday and Saturday night with some clouds and possibly a shower or two. Drier weather should return on Sunday.

A low pressure system may bring in a little snow around here on Friday. Images provided by Pivotal Weather.

Monday: Rain during the morning, possibly heavy, tapering off to showers during the afternoon. High 52-59.

Monday night: Showers ending from northwest to southeast. Low 32-39.

Tuesday: Gradual clearing. High 50-57, cooler across east-facing coastal locations.

Tuesday night: Clear to partly cloudy. Low 32-39.

Wednesday: Sunny in the morning, clouds start to move back in during the afternoon. High 51-58, cooler across east-facing coastal locations.

Wednesday night: Becoming mostly cloudy. Low 34-41.

Thursday: Cloudy and becoming breezy with showers possible late in the day. High 51-58, cooler across Cape Cod

Thursday night: Showers likely, possibly changing to snow across the interior late at night. Low 32-39.

Friday: Rain or snow ending, breezy. High 41-48.

Saturday: Sunshine and some afternoon clouds, slight chance for a shower at night, breezy. High 49-56.

Sunday: Becoming partly to mostly sunny. High 49-56.

While much of the upcoming week will be dry, it doesn’t mean the weather pattern is quiet, as we’ll have a few systems moving across the region.

Aside from a few snow or rain showers early Thursday, we’ll stay mostly dry into the start of next weekend. Loop provided by Pivotal Weather.

We’re starting the week off on a dry but mild note with high pressure building in. Temperatures will likely get into the 50s in many areas today with sunshine, and we could top 60 on Tuesday in several locations. A cold front moves through Tuesday night, and though it won’t have much, if any, precipitation with it, it will usher much cooler air in for Wednesday. A weak system moves through Wednesday night and early Thursday with a few snow or rain showers, then temperatures start to turn milder on Friday with high pressure building back in. Southwest winds develop on Saturday ahead of a potent storm in the nation’s mid-section, resulting in a very mild day. Sunday also looks to be breezy and quite mild, but as that storm system moves eastward we’ll have a better chance at some rain, especially later in the day.

Sunday could be a very mild day, but it could be accompanied by some rain. Image provided by WeatherBell.

Monday: Sunshine and a few clouds. High 51-58.

Monday night: A few clouds around. Low 29-36.

Tuesday: Sunshine and some late-day clouds, breezy. High 55-62, cooler across the South Coast and Cape Cod.

Tuesday night: Partly cloudy. Low 26-33.

Wednesday: A mix of sun and clouds, clouds thicken up late in the day. High 40-47.

Wednesday night: Mostly cloudy with a chance for a few snow or rain showers, mainly north of the Mass Pike. Low 28-35.

Thursday: Plenty of clouds with some snow or rain showers possible, mainly in the morning. High 40-47.

Thursday night: Mostly cloudy. Low 29-36.

Friday: Intervals of clouds and sun. High 48-55.

Saturday: More clouds than sunshine. High 56-63, cooler across the South Coast and Cape Cod.

Sunday: Mostly cloudy with showers possible, especially in the afternoon, windy. High 59-66, cooler across the South Coast and Cape Cod.

It’s still astronomical winter, but March is meteorological spring. In terms of the weather, we’ll experience winter and spring at various times this week.

Temperatures will be about 10 degrees below normal today. Image provided by weathermodels.com

We start the week off with high pressure building in, bringing us plenty of sunshine today, but temperatures will remain quite chilly. As we head into Tuesday, the high slides offshore, and a developing low pressure system in the nation’s midsection will send a warm front our way. This will result in a milder day on Tuesday, but also more in the way of cloudcover and possibly a shower or two late in the day. That system will draw nearer on Wednesday, bringing showers in during the day, with some steadier rain at night, some of which could be heavy. We’ll also have gusty southerly winds, resulting in a very mild day, despite the clouds and rain. A cold front trailing the system will move through on early Thursday, bringing in an end to the steady rain, though a few more showers are still possible during the afternoon. An upper-level disturbance moves across the region Thursday night and early Friday with a few snow showers possible. Another weak system quickly follows on Saturday, but this one will only produce a few snow or rain showers. High pressure builds in for Sunday with dry and colder weather once again.

Temperatures should get well into the 50s on Thursday. Image provided by WeatherBell.

Monday: Plenty of sunshine. High 26-33.

Monday night: Clear during the evening, clouds start to filter in overnight. Low 14-21.

Tuesday: Partly sunny, clouds thicken up late in the day with a stray shower possible, becoming breezy in the afternoon. High 42-49.

Tuesday night: Becoming mostly cloudy. Low 33-40 during the evening, temperatures start to rise after midnight.

Wednesday: Cloudy and breezy with showers likely, steadier rain possible late in the day. High 50-57.

Wednesday night: Windy with periods of rain, tapering off late at night. Low 43-50.

Thursday: Mostly cloudy, a few more rain showers possible. High 52-59.

Thursday night: Partly to mostly cloudy, breezy, chance for a few late-night snow showers. Low 23-30.

Friday: A mix of sun and clouds, chance for a morning snow shower, windy. High 36-43.

Saturday: Intervals of clouds and sun with a few rain or snow showers possible, breezy. High 40-47.

Sunday: Partly sunny. High 35-42.

Mostly dry and milder weather is expected to continue across the region for the next few days.

Temperatures will be several degrees above normal this week. Image provided by Weathermodels.com

We start the week off with high pressure moving offshore, allowing for another dry day with temperatures likely topping 40 in many areas. Even milder temperatures are expected on Tuesday ahead of a weak frontal system, which may produce a few widely scattered showers, but most of us will remain dry. Wednesday should be another dry day with temperatures a few degrees cooler. Thursday looks to be the mildest day of this stretch with well above normal temperatures, but it comes at a price. We’ll have a cold front approaching, and it will produce scattered showers across the region, possibly mixed with wet snow if they move in before daybreak. Temperatures start to fall behind it in the evening, so any untreated surfaces could ice up – keep that in mind if you’re heading out Thursday night. Drier and colder air settles in for Friday, though a few widely scattered rain or snow showers can’t be ruled out. As for next weekend, it looks like another low pressure system will move in, but the models don’t agree on much with this system right now, including the timing, amount of precipitation, and type of precipitation to expect. For now, this doesn’t look like it’ll be a potent system, but obviously we’ll keep an eye on it as the week goes on.

A storm system may impact the region later Saturday, but the details are still fuzzy. Images provided by Pivotal Weather.

Monday: Morning sunshine with afternoon clouds. High 38-45.

Monday night: Partly to mostly cloudy. Low 30-37.

Tuesday: Mostly cloudy, slight chance for a late-day shower. High 44-51.

Tuesday night: Slight chance for an evening shower, then becoming partly cloudy. Low 29-36.

Wednesday: Mostly sunny, clouds start to move in late in the day. High 43-50.

Wednesday night: Becoming mostly cloudy, some snow or rain showers possible before daybreak. Low 27-34.

Thursday: Plenty of clouds with occasional showers, breezy. High 46-53.

Thursday night: Mostly cloudy, showers gradually ending. Low 29-36.

Friday: A mix of sun and clouds, chance for a few snow or rain showers, breezy, and cooler. High 38-45.

Saturday: Some early sun, then becoming mostly cloudy with light snow or rain possible during the afternoon and evening, breezy. High 35-42.

Sunday: Intervals of clouds and sunshine and light snow or rain ending, breezy. High 33-40.

The pattern will turn less active for much of the week across the region.

Winds could gust in excess of 50 mph across the region today. Image provided by WeatherBell.

The storm that brought a variety of weather to the region on Sunday will move into Atlantic Canada today where it will slow down and continue to strengthen. It will continue to produce strong winds across the region into Tuesday, but today is when they will be strongest, with gusts upwards of 50-60 mph possible this afternoon. High Wind Warnings and Wind Advisories are in effect for nearly all of the region. We’ll see only a few breaks of sun today, but they should be more common on Tuesday as high pressure tries to start to build in. It will do so on Wednesday with more in the way of sunshine, and less in the way of wind. Clouds move back in late in the day ahead of a low pressure system moving off the Southeast coast. There is still some uncertainty with the track this storm will take, but it looks like it will stay far enough to the south to spare us from a major snowstorm. However, there is still a chance for some light snow, especially south of Boston, on Thursday. How far north the snow gets and how much falls will be determined by the exact track the storm takes. We may write a special blog about the storm on Wednesday, if needed. After that, high pressure builds in for Friday and the weekend with dry and chilly weather once again.

For now, it looks like a potential storm system on Thursday will stay mainly south of the region. Images provided by Pivotal Weather.

Monday: Intervals of clouds and sunshine, windy. High 22-29, wind chill 10-15 in the afternoon.

Monday night: Becoming clear to partly cloudy, windy. Low 8-15, wind chill 0 to -10 overnight.

Tuesday: Sunshine and some afternoon clouds, still windy. High 18-25, wind chill 5-10 in the afternoon.

Tuesday night: Becoming clear with diminishing winds. Low 5-12, wind chill 0 to -10 overnight.

Wednesday: Sunny in the morning, then clouds start to move in during the afternoon. High 23-30, wind chill 15-20 in the afternoon.

Wednesday night: Partly to mostly cloudy. Low 6-13.

Thursday: Mostly cloudy with a chance for some light snow, mainly south of Boston. High 25-32.

Thursday night: Any snow ends in the evening, becoming partly cloudy late at night. Low 15-22.

Friday: Partly to mostly sunny, breezy. High 28-35.

Saturday: Sunshine and some afternoon clouds. High 29-36.

Sunday: A mix of sun and clouds. High 31-38.

The active pattern will continue for most of the week with a few more chances for wintry weather.

Sunday’s storm dropped 3-7 inches of snow across the region. Image provided by the National Weather Service office in Norton, MA.

We’re starting the week out with high pressure in control, giving us sunshine and chilly conditions today. Many places will get above freezing allowing for snow to melt, but as temperatures drop this evening, icy conditions will likely develop on untreated surfaces, so keep that in mind if you are heading out this evening. Clouds will start to move in on Tuesday ahead of another low pressure system. This one will bring snow into the Mid-Atlantic states, but likely passes well south of New England. However, the precipitation field surrounding the storm could get far enough north Tuesday night to bring a little light snow into the South Coast, Cape Cod, and the Islands, possibly as far north as parts of Rhode Island and southeastern Massachusetts. We’re not looking at much snow, just a dusting to perhaps an inch, so it’ll be more of a nuisance than anything else if it happens. High pressure brings drier air in for Wednesday, then things get complicated.

Some “nuisance snow” is expected near the South Coast Tuesday night. Image provided by WeatherBell.

Low pressure will move into the Great Lakes late Wednesday, then into the St. Lawrence Valley Wednesday night and Thursday. We’ll see snow developing ahead of the system Wednesday night, but as warmer air moves in aloft, a change to sleet and then freezing rain is likely. The question becomes – does a secondary area of low pressure develop and pass south of New England early Thursday? If it does, that will keep the cold air in place in the surface, resulting in sleet and freezing rain continuing across the interior, with a change to plain rain south of the Mass Pike. If it doesn’t, then the warmer air eventually moves in at the surface, with a change to plain rain across most of the region before the precipitation ends by midday Thursday. High pressure builds in with drier air for Friday and the first part of Saturday before things get complicated once again.

The models all have different ideas about what will fall from the sky on Thursday. Images provided by Pivotal Weather.

Another low pressure system will move out of the Great Lakes and into the St. Lawrence Valley later Saturday and Saturday night. We’ll see snow developing late Saturday, likely changing to rain at night. This time, we likely will see a secondary low pressure area develop, but the question is, where does it track. Does it pass south of the region, allowing some colder air to move back in with a change back to sleet or snow? Does it move right across the region, resulting in more rain for much of Sunday? At this point, it’s far too early to try and pin down these type of details, but it does look like, for now at least, that Sunday won’t be a nice day around here.

The models don’t agree on what will happen on Sunday either. Images provided by Pivotal Weather.

Monday: Partly to mostly sunny. High 28-35.

Monday night: Clear to partly cloudy. Low 7-14, north of the Mass Pike, 15-22 south of the Pike.

Tuesday: Morning sun, then increasing clouds. High 28-35.

Tuesday night: Mostly cloudy, chance for a little light snow near the South Coast, Cape Cod, and the Islands. Low 9-16 north of the Mass Pike, 17-24 south of the Pike.

Wednesday: Intervals of clouds and sun. High 26-33.

Wednesday night: Cloudy with light snow developing, changing to sleet and freezing rain late at night, possibly all rain south of Boston. Low 18-25, temperatures start rising after midnight.

Thursday: Snow, sleet, freezing rain, or rain ending by midday, some clearing towards evening. High 36-43.

Thursday night: Becoming partly cloudy. Low 16-23.

Friday: Mostly sunny, breezy, colder. High 25-32.

Saturday: Becoming mostly cloudy, light snow developing in the afternoon, changing to rain at night. High 29-36.

Sunday: Cloudy and breezy with rain likely, possibly changing back to sleet, freezing rain, or snow, especially north and west of Boston. High 35-42.

Happy Truck Day to all who celebrate. While it’s a sign that Spring is on the way, Mother Nature won’t be providing too many other signs of Spring this week.

The first sign of spring is upon us – Monday is Red Sox Truck Day, when all of the equipment gets loaded up and shipped down to Fort Myers for spring training. Image provided by Boston.com

We’re starting the week off on a mild note. The low pressure system that brought us some light snow and rain will drag a warm front through this morning, allowing milder air to flow into the region on south to southwest winds. We’ll see some limited sunshine, but if it ends up being more widespread than we expect, temperatures could jump into the 50s. A cold front moves through tonight, possibly producing some rain showers in a few spots. High pressure builds in behind the system with sunshine accompanied by breezy and cooler conditions on Tuesday. The high will remain in control on Wednesday keeping us seasonably chilly, but clouds will start to stream in during the day ahead of the next storm system. There is a bit of uncertainty with this system, but we’ll likely see some snow developing across the region before daybreak on Thursday. A change to rain is likely south of the Mass Pike, but it’s the area from the Pike northward into southern New Hampshire that is a big question mark. Warmer air will likely move in aloft, allowing for a change to freezing rain and sleet, but how far north does the warmer air get at the surface? Some models bring it all the way into southern New Hampshire with a change to plain rain, some keep the colder air locked in at the surface, with the wintry mix and resulting hazardous travel conditions continuing into the afternoon, and some even keep it all snow across parts of southern New Hampshire and even northern Massachusetts. It’s a little too early to decide which way to lean with this, so we’ll continue to monitor it, and if there is enough of a threat of wintry weather, we’ll write a separate blog about it on Wednesday.

Right now the models all have different ideas about Thursday storm system Images provided by Pivotal Weather.

The precipitation winds down later Thursday as the system moves offshore, then high pressure builds in for Friday and Saturday with dry and colder weather. The next system heads out way for late Saturday into at least part of Sunday. This one looks a little colder, with snow becoming a better bet across much of the region, though the South Coast and Cape Cod may see some rain. This system also looks to contain a little more moisture so there is the potential for a decent-sized storm, especially across the interior, but this is still nearly a week away, so things can and will change numerous times between now and then. We’ll have more details on this system in our Weekend Outlook on Thursday, but we wanted to give you plenty of heads up on this one, since a lot of people tend to travel to parties on Super Bowl Sunday.

The models aren’t on the same page for Saturday night and Sunday either. Images provided by Pivotal Weather,

Monday: Becoming partly sunny. High 38-45.

Monday night: Mostly cloudy, chance for a few showers, some clearing late at night. Low 29-36.

Tuesday: Partly to mostly sunny, breezy, and colder. High 34-41 in the morning, temperatures drop in the afternoon.

Tuesday night: Clear to partly cloudy. Low 10-17.

Wednesday: A mix of sun and clouds. High 24-31.

Wednesday night: Becoming cloudy, snow developing late at night, possibly some rain near the South Coast and Cape Cod. Low 12-19 during the evening, temperatures start rising after midnight.

Thursday: Cloudy and breezy with snow changing to rain from Mass Pike southward, snow may change to sleet, freezing rain or plain rain north of the Mass Pike. Precipitation ends late in the day. High 36-43.

Thursday night: Gradual clearing, breezy. Low 25-32.

Friday: Partly to mostly sunny, breezy. High 34-41.

Saturday: Morning sun gives way to increasing afternoon clouds, snow may develop late in the day or at night. High 29-36.

Sunday: Cloudy with a chance of snow or rain. High 35-42.
