Boston is getting the sunnier half of the weekend. Early Sunday morning was cloudy and around 49 degrees, but skies should brighten as leftover showers move out, with temperatures climbing to near 58 and west winds adding a noticeable bite.

Sunshine Arrives With A Windy Edge

Any lingering showers should end early Sunday, leaving mostly sunny conditions through the afternoon. The National Weather Service is calling for west winds of 10 to 17 mph, with gusts potentially reaching 30 mph, so the day may feel cooler than the thermometer suggests.

Sunday night turns partly cloudy with a low near 44 and southwest winds between 7 and 10 mph. Monday should bring another mostly sunny day near 58, followed by Tuesday with a high near 59 and sunny Veterans Day conditions near 58.

The clearer, drier outlook is a notable shift from Hoodline's earlier forecast, which focused on a wetter weekend setup. For now, Boston's best outdoor window is Sunday afternoon through Wednesday, although the wind will keep the patio experience from feeling especially summery.

Rain Threat Returns Late In The Week

A slight chance of rain is possible Thursday. Rain could continue Friday.

Rain chances continue into Friday night and Saturday, when lows may dip into the mid-30s and highs remain in the upper 40s. The Boston area is more likely to see rain, while colder inland communities could eventually deal with a rain-to-wet-snow mix if the late-week system trends colder.

Boaters Should Watch The Wind

There are no land-based watches, warnings or advisories for Massachusetts in the current forecast, but marine conditions are a different story. Gusty west to northwest winds and rough seas are expected to continue across parts of the coastal waters, with a Small Craft Advisory posted for marine zones ANZ254–256 until 7 a.m. EST Tuesday, November 10, 2026.
