Showers wrap up on Monday

RAIN HANGS ON A LITTLE LONGER

Monday will bring another day of cool and wet weather with scattered showers continuing into the morning. The best chance for rain appears to be south of the Pike. Isolated thunderstorms will be in the mix too. We’ll see steady drying through the afternoon with some sun appearing before the end of the day. It will be another day of cool weather, with highs in the 50s across most of the area. However, areas like the South Coast, Cape & Islands will be near a warm front, and highs may reach the mid 60s.

CHILLY THIS WEEK

After Monday, skies will clear and we’ll be in for a very dry and fall-like week. Highs will remain in the mid-50s throughout the workweek, and overnight lows will drop into the 30s each night. This will likely bring the first frost of the season for many areas. Even Boston, which hasn’t dipped into the 30s yet, may see its first of the season this week.

Beyond the cooler temperatures, it’s going to be a fantastic week to get outside and enjoy the peak of the fall foliage. Leaves are reaching their peak in the Berkshires and nearing their peak in the Worcester Hills, so leaf-peepers should be in for a treat. With plenty of sunshine and the crisp fall air, it’ll be great weather for outdoor activities, just make sure to dress warmly, especially in the mornings!
