Mass. weather: Snowy weekend forecast ahead of warm temps across state

Some parts of Massachusetts could see snow over the weekend, but that won’t stop the state’s string of above-freezing days from continuing into next week.

The National Weather Service forecast calls for possible snow showers on Sunday night into Monday morning, but there is only a 20% chance of precipitation in most areas. Central and Western Massachusetts have a better chance to see snow, but it will likely present as light flurries with little to no accumulation.

At most, the National Weather Service predicts any accumulation to be less than a half-inch.

Daytime conditions on Saturday will once again be dry and sunny, with afternoon highs approaching 30 degrees across much of the state. Boston will see a high temp of 38 degrees, while Worcester will check in at 37 degrees and Springfield will hit 39 degrees. Pittsfield will be slightly cooler at 34 degrees, while Cape Cod & the Islands will top out at 35 degrees.

Temperatures will drop to the low 20s and mid teens overnight with Boston going as low as 22 degrees and Central and Western Massachusetts hitting 17 degrees.

Conditions will be dry and sunny again Sunday, with temperatures in the mid 30s for most of the state before the overnight flurries move in.

Next week will be seasonably warm, with Monday temperatures in the high 30s to low 40s, and Tuesday and Wednesday forecasts calling for afternoon temperatures in the mid to high 40s across the state.
