WEATHER ALERT FRIDAY
A slow moving front will trigger heavy rain at times Friday and Friday night. Coverage of downpours and embedded thunderstorms will peak this afternoon and evening when we have the greatest risk for localized flooding, especially in southeastern MA. A Flood Watch will continue there until 10 AM Saturday for 2-4″ locally up to 6″ rainfall. Street flooding is likely where drainage is slow. Be sure storm drains are clear of leaves. Areas that exceed 4″ rainfall may see minor river flooding too.
From Boston to Worcester and southern NH we’re expecting 1-2″ rainfall. Downpours and thunderstorms won’t be as abundant, but be ready for intense rainfall at times this PM. Temperatures will sit in the 60s all day.
WEEKEND IN VIEW
Steady rain will wind down by 10 AM Saturday. Much of the day will be cloudy and dry, though we can’t rule out a few sprinkles.
A final batch of showers will come through Saturday night through sunrise Sunday. Cool air will pour into the region and limit weekend highs to the 50s and lower 60s, Sunday running cooler.
The Patriots game will be dry with temps dropping from the lower 50s into the 40s.
