Boston, Massachusetts – Showers are already moving through parts of southern New England this morning, with another round expected later today that could bring thunderstorms and disrupt the evening commute.
According to the National Weather Service in Boston, a cold front dropping into the region is creating a sharp temperature contrast across southern New England, helping fuel additional rounds of rain and possible thunderstorms. The highest chance for thunderstorm development will be inland areas, especially across western and central Massachusetts, later this afternoon into the evening.
Cities including Boston, Worcester, Springfield, and Hartford will see periods of rain through the day, with brief downpours possible. Interior areas may also experience isolated lightning and gusty winds as storms develop, while coastal locations remain cooler with more stable conditions.
Drivers should be prepared for wet roads and reduced visibility, particularly during heavier showers later today and tonight. Keep devices charged and monitor alerts if thunderstorms approach your area.
Rain chances will linger into tonight as the cold front continues to move through, with additional updates possible if stronger storms develop inland.
