Boston 25 Weather

Downpours Thursday

WEATHER ALERT

Tonight stays mild with temperatures only falling back into the low 50s, it will also be breezy. A few spot showers or areas of drizzle will be possible overnight.

Thursday starts with scattered showers around the area, but the steadier and heavier rain arrives during the afternoon. Expect rain to ramp up anytime after midday with periods of downpours developing through the afternoon and evening commute. A few thunderstorms are also likely, bringing some thunder and lightning to the region Thursday evening. While it will be a soggy stretch, flooding and severe weather are not concerns at this point.

By the time the rain winds down, most towns will pick up between 1-2″ of rainfall. Showers will linger into at least the first half of Friday before drier air gradually works in later in the day.

Temperatures trend cooler to end the week, with highs in the low 60s Thursday and only the 50s on Friday.

WEEKEND IN VIEW

The good news? The weekend looks much better. Sunshine returns Saturday with highs back into the 70s, and we could make a run at 80 degrees in many spots Sunday. The warmer pattern sticks around into early next week before our next chance for showers and thunderstorms arrives next Wednesday.
