Boston, Mass. – A brief round of isolated showers Saturday and a slight chance of storms Sunday mark the only rain chances for Massachusetts before a stretch of dry, sunny weather takes hold next week. Temperatures will stay comfortably in the 70s across much of the state, offering a mild late-summer feel.
According to the National Weather Service in Boston, scattered showers may pop up Saturday afternoon, with the potential for thunderstorms in parts of eastern Massachusetts on Sunday. Despite the weekend blip, skies clear quickly as high pressure builds over New England by Monday.
The dry pattern will dominate through at least Wednesday, with daytime highs in the low to mid-70s and overnight lows falling into the 40s and 50s inland. Coastal areas, including Boston, may hold slightly warmer at night but remain pleasant and dry.
Drivers should be cautious during any isolated downpours this weekend, as brief heavy rain could reduce visibility on roadways. Outdoor plans from Monday onward look favorable with abundant sunshine, light winds, and low humidity.
Forecasters say the next meaningful rain chance is unlikely until late next week, keeping Massachusetts in a stable, quiet stretch of weather.
