Who’s ready for another rainy weekend? Eastern Massachusetts heads into mid-June with a few ups and downs still in store. Friday brings pleasant weather, but the weekend trend turns wet yet again with clouds, cool air, and the return of scattered rain. Saturday looks particularly unsettled and unseasonably chilly. Sunday offers a small improvement, but remains damp and gray.
Eastern Massachusetts heads into the second week of June with a more unsettled pattern. Moisture-rich air returns Friday into the weekend, bringing several rounds of showers and a few thunderstorms, especially Friday evening and again Saturday. While no widespread flooding is expected, locally heavy downpours are possible. Sunday trends drier with some sunshine, and Monday offers a beautiful break before the next frontal system arrives midweek. Temperatures remain seasonable to warm, with a mix of sun, clouds, and scattered rain chances through the period.
Eastern Massachusetts transitions from a stormy end to May into a warmer, more settled start to June. A frontal system brings showers and a few thunderstorms Friday night into Saturday, but no flooding is expected. Behind it, drier and more seasonable air moves in for Sunday and Monday, bringing crisp, spring conditions. By midweek, a ridge of high pressure may take hold — setting the stage for a warm, summer-like pattern across the region. Friday, May 30 — Mild with Building Clouds, Showers Late:
Partly sunny and seasonable through the day across Eastern MA, with highs in the mid-70s and increasing southwest winds.
Eastern Massachusetts will experience a stretch of unusually chilly, gray, and windswept weather to close out May, as a late-season Nor’easter rolls through southern New England. While rain tapers by Friday morning, scattered showers linger through Saturday under a stubborn upper-level trough. By Sunday, skies begin to brighten, temperatures slowly rebound, and a drier, more seasonable pattern takes hold just in time for Memorial Day. Next week starts with sunshine, crisp mornings, and gradually warming afternoons, though a few damp periods from passing showers remain possible. A week that starts with coastal flooding ends with backyard barbecue potential, offering a little something for everyone this holiday weekend.
Eastern Massachusetts wraps up the week with classic mid-May warmth, but a more unsettled weather pattern gradually takes hold heading into the weekend. A pair of weak disturbances will bring several rounds of scattered showers and perhaps a thunderstorm between Friday evening and Saturday night. While no day looks like a total washout, outdoor plans may need to stay flexible—especially during the late afternoon and evening hours. A cold front moves through on Sunday, clearing out the humidity and ushering in a noticeably cooler and drier air mass. Early next week will feel refreshingly springlike, with crisp mornings, comfortable afternoons, and a welcome drop in dew points.
Eastern Massachusetts is in for a classic spring rollercoaster this week, beginning with a dreary, windswept rain event on Friday and Saturday before transitioning to a prolonged stretch of dry, sunny, and increasingly warm weather. A slow-moving coastal low brings widespread rain and gusty onshore winds to end the workweek. Conditions improve gradually through the weekend, and by Sunday, high pressure takes over — ushering in sunshine and a steady warming trend. Expect highs in the 50s and 60s to start, climbing well into the 70s and even low 80s by midweek. Patience will be rewarded.
Eastern Massachusetts opens May with a summery start before slipping into a cooler, more unsettled stretch. Friday and Saturday feature warm temperatures, increasing humidity, and the potential for a few isolated strong thunderstorms. A more widespread shower threat returns Sunday as a stalled front lingers over the region. Next week trends cooler, with periods of cloudiness and scattered rain as a slow-moving upper-level low dominates the pattern. Despite the drearier outlook, there will still be breaks of sun — especially by midweek — as temperatures hover in the 60s with a few warmer inland spikes. Friday, May 2 — Fog Lifts, Warmth Builds:
Low morning clouds and patchy fog give way to partial sunshine by midday.
Eastern Massachusetts wraps up April with a dynamic spring pattern — mild and dry conditions to start, followed by a soaking Saturday, a brisk cooldown Sunday, and a return to sunshine and warmth early next week. A strong frontal system brings widespread rain and a few thunderstorms on Saturday, followed by cooler, drier air and gusty northwest winds on Sunday. The start of May looks bright and pleasant as high pressure builds in, with sunshine and spring warmth dominating Monday through Wednesday. A weak front may introduce a chance of showers by Thursday or Friday, but confidence on exact timing remains low. Overall, it’s a week of changing skies and temperatures —a classic New England spring.
