Boston, MA – Drivers and residents across Massachusetts should brace for a soggy start to their Sunday as spring showers and gusty winds push through Boston and surrounding areas. The National Weather Service warns that rain and strong wind gusts up to 28 mph will sweep into Boston by midday Sunday, creating slippery conditions along I-90 and other major roadways. If you plan to travel or spend time outdoors, take extra caution—visibility will drop, and surfaces may become slick. Charge your devices and check travel plans, as delays and minor flooding in low-lying spots are possible.
According to the latest NWS forecast, rain arrives Sunday morning with temperatures peaking near 57°F. Winds will shift west, with gusts making for a raw, chilly afternoon across Suffolk County, Cambridge, and Brookline. The showers will taper off Sunday night, but cooler air lingers as skies clear.
By Monday, the mood shifts. Sunshine returns, lifting highs into the lower 70s—a welcome change for anyone weary of the spring gray. Outdoor plans on Monday look safe, with northwest winds staying manageable. Tuesday brings more sunshine and even warmer air, pushing highs near 76°F, but gusts could reach 23 mph. Clear, cool nights dominate midweek, though Wednesday night may dip to 45°F, so gardeners should monitor any late-spring chill.
Looking ahead, Thursday keeps the trend with mostly sunny skies and mild temperatures. By Friday, rain chances creep back, signaling more unsettled spring weather for Boston and Worcester.
