Weather Forecast: Grey Weather Clearing for Memorial Day

By |

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.

Weather Forecast: Warm Temps and Scattered Showers This Week

By |

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.
