COOL & SOGGY
High temperatures today happened early this morning with upper 50s in the Boston area. Those wake-up 50s will drop all day, back to the 40s by lunchtime and 30s mid-late afternoon.
Count on cloudy skies with occasional showers or sprinkles. The chance for showers will peak this afternoon and evening with a change to snow. Don’t worry, it doesn’t look cold enough to actually stick locally! Skies will clear after midnight.
Friday will remain seasonably cool with highs in the lower 40s. You’ll catch a little sun early then clouds will increase and lead to some scattered rain and snow showers from late afternoon through the overnight. Again, it doesn’t look cold enough for any accumulation in the Boston area. Higher elevations could see a coating from the northern Worcester Hills to the Monadnocks. The best chance for a couple inches of snow will remain focused over the mountains.
WEEKEND IN VIEW
Saturday will be windy with gusts 40-50 mph. Plan on a cool day with more 40s and partly cloudy conditions.
Sunday looks dry and mostly cloudy for the St. Patrick’s Day Parade in South Boston.
Our next WEATHER ALERT arrives Monday. A storm system will bring in heavy rain and strong gusts. Temperatures will briefly climb into the 50s or 60s before cooler air returns behind the storm.
