Boston will see several warmer days and bouts of rain in the coming week, according to National Weather Service forecasts.
“(Monday) we’ve got a warm front that’s going to cross the area,” said National Weather Service meteorologist Hayden Frank. “Temperatures will be back into the 60s (Monday), and the main thing is late (Monday), there may be a few showers from time to time during the day, but it’s mainly during the evening that we expect widespread showers, perhaps some thunder and brief downpours across the area.”
Throughout the week, the greater Boston area is expected to see varied temperatures throughout the and some possible precipitation.
The high Monday is expected to kick off with a high of 66 degrees, NWS forecasted, with a low of 43 degrees. Patchy fog is forecasted throughout the day, returning Wednesday night.
The downpours Monday may lead to typical “ponding of water on streets, but no significant flooding or anything like that,” Frank said.
Tuesday morning the rain is expected to clear out, according to the weather service, leading to a drier period through Wednesday night.
“Temperatures may reach low 50s Tuesday, as some colder air moves in,” said Frank. “It will probably get down to freezing Tuesday night. And highs in the 40s Wednesday, with the continued dry weather.
“The next system comes in Wednesday night and Thursday, some showers,” Frank continued. “It doesn’t look like too significant or complete washout.”
Highs are expected to surge back into the high 60s Thursday and Friday, NWS forecasts. Thursday night will likely be warmer, with a low in the low 50s, and temperatures may drop back down into the 40s Friday night.
The typical high for this time of year is around 49 degrees, Frank said, but the temperatures through the coming week are “not too extreme” and “pretty typical for late March, early April.”
