Boston 25 Weather

Cool, mainly dry weekend

WEEKEND IN VIEW

A chilly night is ahead with a mostly clear sky and temperatures dropping quickly into the 30s by Saturday morning. You’ll definitely want a jacket if you’re heading out early.

Saturday starts bright with plenty of sunshine, but clouds will gradually increase during the afternoon as a storm system passes to our south. Right now, the best chance for any rain stays to our southwest across western Massachusetts, Connecticut, and perhaps even southern Rhode Island. If the storm tracks a bit farther north, the South Coast, Cape, and Islands could see a few showers late Saturday into early Sunday. It’s something we’ll be watching closely. High temperatures Saturday will top out in the low to mid-50s.

Sunday begins with some lingering clouds, and we’ll continue to monitor that slight shower risk near the South Coast and Cape. For most of us, though, the day looks dry. Temperatures will be a bit milder, with highs in the low 50s along the coast and upper 50s inland.

NEXT WEEK

Looking ahead, sunshine returns for both Monday and Tuesday. Cool mornings in the 30s and 40s will give way to pleasant afternoons, with highs mainly in the 50s. Some inland communities will get closer to 60 degrees.

Our next widespread chance for rain arrives during the middle to latter part of next week, from Wednesday through Friday. Given how dry it’s been lately, that’s rain we could certainly use.
