QUIET START TO FRIDAY
Soak up the early sun! Most of the day will be dry with afternoon highs close to 70 degrees. Spotty showers will starting popping up around 3 PM with areas of rain by evening. A few downpours are possible overnight with a lull in the wet weather expected around sunrise Saturday.
RAIN, WIND, COASTAL CONCERNS
After a brief wake-up lull, peak rain and wind will pass through the Boston area 8 AM through 2 PM. Showers will lighten between 2-5 PM and taper off by 8 PM. Although a few snow flakes or sleet pellets could mix in Saturday morning north and west of Boston, the only accumulation is expected in the highest peaks of New England (aka, Mount Washington).
Gusts 35-55 mph will move across the region from north to south late morning through the afternoon. The strongest gusts will impact the coast where we have the best chance for some isolated wind damage. We are also monitoring coastal concerns including rough surf and hazardous boating conditions. A Gale Warning is in place through Saturday evening.
It will be unseasonable chilly tomorrow too. Highs will be confined to the lower 50s, which are typical lows in late May! Wind chills in the 30s and 40s will keep things feeling RAW in the morning.
SUNDAY IMPROVEMENTS
Sunday looks much better with some sunshine early and highs back around 70 degrees. Clouds will increase later in the day ahead of another round of showers expected overnight.
The unsettled pattern will continue early next week with on/off rain and highs in the 60s.
