Dry, breezy today, but a few snowflakes could mix with rain tomorrow in Boston

It’s been a dry, breezy start to the week here in the Boston area. As we continue moving through this afternoon, the sun will be in and out of the clouds, but it should remain dry through the evening.

Winds will gust up to 25-30 mph at times. Highs should reach the low 50s today. Tonight, low temperatures will be in the low to mid 30s.

As Tuesday rolls in, a weak disturbance will push into the area, giving way to a rain/snow mix. Yes, a little snow!

Areas along and north of the Massachusetts Turnpike will have the best chance of seeing a few passing snowflakes and flurries Tuesday morning. But a few flakes will drift south of the Pike from time to time as well. Some snow could also mix with rain later in the evening as the system wraps up and moves away from our region. 

A light coating of snow is possible tomorrow, especially along and north of the Pike and across Worcester Hills and the higher terrain, mainly on grassy and elevated surfaces. But we don’t expect major problems as our temperatures climb from the 30s into the 40s and 50s by afternoon. In other words, the snow won’t stick around. Otherwise, we’ll see mostly cloudy skies Tuesday.

Wednesday will be the coolest day of the week. In fact, it will feel like winter all over again Wednesday morning! Temps will start the day in the mid to upper 20s. Highs will reach the upper 40s by afternoon under mostly sunny skies. Our high temperatures rebound into the 50s and 60s by Thursday and Friday with sunshine. A few showers are possible on Saturday.
