SATURDAY RAIN AND SNOW
It’s been another dreary start to the weekend across Massachusetts, with a soggy Saturday that felt more like late March than mid-April. Rain mixed with snow in some of our higher elevation spots this morning, especially across interior Massachusetts—and the Worcester Hills really stole the show. Some towns there picked up between 7 and 9 inches of snow, making it the largest snowfall of the season in that region.
Heading into tonight, we’re not quite done with the unsettled weather. Expect plenty of clouds, patchy fog, drizzle, and breezy conditions through the overnight hours. And yes, more rain is on the way.
A steady, soaking rain returns late tonight and will linger through much of Sunday—especially for areas east of I-495. Rainfall totals will range from 1 to 1.5 inches in eastern Massachusetts, with less than half an inch likely across the interior. It’ll feel raw all day with temperatures stuck in the mid to upper 40s, and a persistent breeze will make it feel even chillier. Not exactly picnic weather!
SUNNY SKIES AHEAD
There’s good news if you’re already looking ahead to next week—sunshine makes a comeback on Monday! Highs will climb back into the mid 60s, making it a solid rebound after a gloomy weekend. Tuesday stays mild with more 60s on the board, before yet another cold front swings through Tuesday into early Wednesday, bringing a round of showers back into the mix.
So hang in there—better days are ahead! In the meantime, grab the rain gear.
