Boston residents can expect to embrace a dash of warmth midweek before they potentially bundle up for a nor'easter. The forecast for Boston shows "mostly sunny" weather today with highs nearing 39 degrees, and winds reaching up to 29 mph, as reported by the National Weather Service. Tonight's skies will be "partly cloudy," with lows around 30 degrees and a calmer southwest wind.
As the week unfolds, temperatures will gradually raise to a comfortable high near 44 tomorrow, paving the way for a chance of rain later in the week. According to NBC Boston, the weather pattern provides all indications that Boston is prepped to "get hit with major snow," yet the atmospheric ingredients necessary to solidify this prediction have yet to fully align.
The city will continue to witness "mostly sunny" conditions tomorrow before moving into cloudier skies as the week progresses. Wednesday forecasts a chance of rain between 9 am and noon with the likelihood of precipitation at 30%. Temperatures will hover near 49 degrees, as per the National Weather Service.
It's the end of the week when things might truly get interesting. NBC Boston describes the situation as a "slow-motion drama," noting that it may take nearly "TWO days for us to develop or not" a significant storm. Bostonians should be prepared for more clouds on Wednesday with the potential for "a few showers" and Thursday to possibly stay in "limbo," while Friday could be greeted with snow as "the cold comes rushing in."
The rest of the weekend brings "a chance of snow" on Saturday night and the possibility for rain on Sunday. Temperatures are predicted to fluctuate, with highs around 38 on Saturday and dipping to lows around 27 the same night. The National Weather Service places the chance of precipitation for both days at 30%.
