Boston is getting a clean, cool October reset Saturday: clear skies, a high near 66, and a northeast breeze replacing the 80-degree feel that lingered into Friday. The city was clear early Saturday with temperatures near 60, and the day should stay rain-free. It is the kind of forecast that makes a jacket useful in the morning and mildly annoying by lunch.
The National Weather Service Boston/Norton calls for sunny skies through the afternoon, with northeast winds around 7 to 10 mph. Temperatures climb through the low 60s late morning and peak near 66 before slipping back into the low 60s by late afternoon. No watches, warnings or advisories are listed for Boston.
Sunday Stays Mostly Sunny, Then Showers Creep In
Sunday will be cooler, with mostly sunny skies and a high near 62. Clouds build at night, and a 40% chance of rain showers arrives after 7 p.m., with a low around 53.
The shower threat may favor locations south of the Mass Pike, but Boston is still in the forecast for a wet interruption. That is a modest change from Friday's Hoodline forecast, which also highlighted the weekend's sunny Saturday but had less detail on the Sunday-night timing.
Monday Starts Mild Before Fall Tightens Its Grip
A few showers could linger Monday morning, then skies turn mostly sunny and temperatures rebound to about 68. West winds may increase through the day, reaching up to 16 mph.
The sharper cooldown arrives Monday night, when mostly clear skies and northwest winds around 14 mph send temperatures down to about 46. Tuesday looks sunny but brisk, with a high near 59, and Wednesday remains dry and sunny near 61.
Dry, Seasonable Weather Returns Late Week
Thursday and Friday should bring a calmer fall pattern, with sunshine and highs near 65. Overnight lows will generally land in the upper 40s to low 50s, so the week ahead favors layers, not one heroic decision about whether it is still technically T-shirt weather.
