Boston Braces for Windy Weekend and Possible Thanksgiving Snow Mix

As a zone of low pressure moved through the area, residents of Boston experienced a stormy Saturday marked by heavy rain and wind. When NBC Boston says, “We’re tracking scattered showers in Greater Boston through early afternoon,” With wind gusts likely as high as 40 mph today and a high lingering in the mid to upper 40s, the effects of this system are predicted to last.

The storm will begin to swiftly dissipate as tonight draws near, allowing for partly overcast skies with lows in the low 40s. The National Weather Service reports that although it will still be breezy at times, particularly on Sunday, sunshine is expected to return on Sunday and Monday for those hoping for some respite. It is predicted that the expected high temperatures would rise again into the low to mid-fifty degree range.

A fast-moving system is predicted to bring sporadic showers to New England by Tuesday, according to NBC Boston, with maximum temperatures in Boston anticipated to reach the mid-50s. However, a weather system that is building to the west may bring a mix of rain and snow to the Commonwealth on Thanksgiving Day, so both locals and forecasters are starting to look with caution.

The specifics of the Thanksgiving weather are still unknown. “Most of Thanksgiving Day looks dry with partly sunny skies and highs in the mid 40s,”NBC Bostonreports. But by Thanksgiving evening, things could change because it’s expected to rain and then turn into a rain/snow mix on Friday. It appears to be especially dependent on the arrival of cooler air, which may allow snowfall to reach inland areas. Although it may be too early to confirm snow accumulation, forecasters are closely monitoring the changing system and promise to keep the public informed. Black Friday shoppers should prepare for highs in the low 40s.
