Boston is preparing for a stretch of colder weather following the recent unprecedented rainfall that drenched New England, causing power outages for thousands. According to the National Weather Service, today's forecast involves increasing clouds with robust wind gusts of up to 32 mph, leading to wind chill temperatures remaining in the 20s. The evening will see temperatures drop to a low around 24, with winds persisting at 11 to 15 mph. The National Weather Service reports that the winter air is looking to settle over the area for the coming days.
Despite the aftermath of the storm, tomorrow promises clearer skies with a sunny high near 33 degrees and diminished breezes. As noted by NBC Boston, the overnight drop in winds is expected to facilitate ideal conditions for radiational cooling, setting the stage for an exceptionally chilly Saturday morning, with some suburbs experiencing low teens.
The weekend continues with plentiful sunshine and highs struggling to hit the freezing mark. By Saturday, the winds should calm down as high pressure takes the rein. Sunday will see partly sunny skies and warmer temperatures, climbing near 37, with a calm wind becoming southwest around 5 mph in the evening.
Starting the new week, Bostonians are bracing for a gradual warm-up. Monday offers a high near 45 with a 30 percent chance of rain after 9 AM. NBC Boston anticipates a rebound to the 40s and 50s, with Tuesday bringing likely rain and highs near 55. The contrast between the biting cold of the past days and the expected showers is stark, signaling a transitional period in the New England climate. As midweek approaches, residents can look forward to mostly sunny conditions, with Wednesday's highs around 45.
