Steady rain and fog just in time for the evening commute… swell. Rain will continue through much of the evening, tapering off between 10pm and midnight. Totals run 0.50-1.00" with the highest amounts likely over far Southeast Mass. Fog, locally dense, sticks around all night. Temps won’t move all that much tonight as lows range from the upper 30s well northwest, mid 40s in Boston and near 50 across the Cape.
While we’ll find our dry hours on Friday, a few isolated midday/afternoon showers are possible, especially over Southeast Mass. Temps tomorrow run in the upper 40s on average?
So where’s the snow?!!! Plenty of it will be blasting locations downwind of the Great Lakes on Saturday, but other than a renegade flurry, don’t expect much here. It’ll be a windy day and a cooler one with highs near the seasonable 40 degree reading. That flurry is likely the closest thing to a Christmas snowfall that we’ll see as the pattern flips back to the mild side. At this point, it looks like Lloyd Christmas had a better chance than we do of a white Christmas.
Winter officially arrives Monday night at 11:49PM, but weather-wise, mid Fall sticks around. Highs next week feature plenty of 50s and 60s with the mildest air mid-late week and the best chance of a soaking rain on Wednesday.
