Wet Saturday, snowy Sunday in Massachusetts – Boston news, weather, sports

We have a split forecast for the upcoming weekend in Massachusetts, with warmer temperatures and rain for Saturday before a cool-down brings snow on Sunday.

Saturday is going to offer a cool rain. Highs will be relatively mild for this time of year in the low to mid 40s, but that’s still a pretty miserable temperature when accompanied by rain.

While the morning will be dry, rain will pour in during the afternoon. It’s going to rain the rest of the day until 20-21. Overnight temperatures from Saturday night into Sunday morning will drop into the low 30s.

Sunday morning also starts dry. By 3-4pm the snow will start to move into our area and it will last until early Monday morning.

Most of the area will see a range of 3-5 inches, with isolated amounts up to 6 inches possible. The snow will be a little lighter on the Cape and the islands. This will change as the weekend progresses so keep checking back for the latest updates.

Otherwise, Sunday’s highs will reach the mid to upper 30s, but temperatures will drop as the snow rolls in.

After that, get ready for a bitter cold blast!

Monday’s lows will be down to the teens with afternoon tea in the low 20s.

The coldest days will be Tuesday and Wednesday. Lows will get pretty close to zero degrees both mornings with afternoon highs only in the mid to upper teens. It will be dry those days and mostly to partly sunny. Thursday morning will be cold in the single digits, but at least afternoon highs will drop into the low to mid 20s. Friday will be “warmer” with lows in the teens and highs back to average in the low to mid 30s.
