Boston area residents can expect a weekend with crisp temperatures and some possible light snow, according to weather forecasts. The National Weather Service predicts today's highs to hover near 31 degrees with increasing clouds, while the evening may bring a light snowfall after 1am with a low around 22 degrees.
As a weak system moves through Southern New England, bringing with it a chance of snow showers tonight, it's going to be tough to warm up from the chilling embrace of the low 30s that dominated this afternoon. These snow showers could leave a patchy coating in some areas by tomorrow morning. "A chance of snow after 1am. Cloudy, with a low around 22," details the forecast from the National Weather Service.
Following the light showers, temperatures tomorrow are expected to remain in the low 30s under mostly cloudy skies. Boston 25 News projects that the start of the workweek will stay cool, with Monday reaching only the mid-20s, and advises people to “make sure to dress in warmer layers” as they return to their routines after the weekend.
Going into Monday evening, another low-impact weather disturbance is likely to happen, heralding light snow with minor accumulations, a fact that Boston 25 News prepares residents for, stating, "Another weak system arrives Monday night into early Tuesday." As we look to midweek, temperatures are expected to ascend, with Wednesday's highs starting a trend toward the more comfortable 40s, offering some respite from the recent spell of colder air.
Residents should also keep an eye out for Tuesday night into Wednesday, as there is a potential for light snow, rain, or a mix of the two, albeit specific details on timing and amounts remain uncertain. In providing insights into the midweek weather changes, Boston 25 News indicates a "gradual warm-up by midweek."
