Boston gets a mostly pleasant Sunday before clouds gather and scattered showers move in later, with temperatures topping out near 62 degrees. The bigger weather story arrives Monday and Tuesday, when sunny skies return but a noticeably cooler fall air mass settles over the city.
Showers Hold Off Until Sunday Evening
Sunday is forecast to be mostly sunny, with a high near 62 and a low around 53 overnight. Rain showers are possible in the afternoon.
According to the National Weather Service, showers could linger into the overnight hours. The heaviest bands are more likely along the South Coast, Cape and Islands, but scattered showers may still reach Boston.
Sunny Monday Brings A Sharp Temperature Drop
Monday looks sunny with a high near 67, followed by a clear night and a low around 45. West winds could become breezy, especially later in the day and overnight.
Tuesday will be sunny but cooler, with a high near 58 and west winds between 10 and 14 mph. The forecast then settles into a dry, fall-like stretch, with sunny skies and highs in the mid-60s Wednesday through Friday.
No Advisories, But Evening Plans May Need Flexibility
No watches, warnings or advisories are listed for Massachusetts. Sunday outdoor plans should be in good shape for much of the day, though a light jacket and a backup plan for evening showers would be smart.
