60s this week with breezy conditions

FALL IS HERE!

Fall officially starts tomorrow at 8:05 pm, and temperatures are certainly going to feel like it this week! Temperatures overnight sink into the upper 40s and lower 50s with winds anywhere from 5-10 mph out of the northeast. A typical high in Boston is about 70 degrees at this point in September. Highs will run 5-10 degrees below average with a persistent northeast wind.

WINDY CONDITIONS AHEAD

Temperatures all week long will be in the upper 50s and lower 60s, and tomorrow features decreasing clouds leading to mostly sunny skies. It could get a little bit breezy too tomorrow anywhere from 10-20 mph, but by Wednesday and Thursday gusts will ramp up. Gusts will be anywhere from 25-35 mph on both of those days, and then even as high as 40 mph by Friday.

POTENTIAL COASTAL STORM

We’ve already added a Weather Alert for Friday and the weekend. It looks like a potent coastal storm will develop and linger for days with rain, wind, and coastal impacts. High surf, dangerous rip currents, coastal flooding, and beach erosion are all concerns with gale or storm-force winds over the waters.

Rain is currently expected Friday through Sunday. Rainfall totals range from 1-2″ inland to 2-5″ along the coast and Cape. Those numbers are not set in stone, but an example of how persistent rain could definitely add up.

Wind storms can be especially concerning this time of year with trees still fully leaved. Plus, with strong gusts expected Friday and Saturday, you’ll need to consider taking down Halloween and Fall decor.
