Boston, Massachusetts – Sunshine dominates Massachusetts skies through Memorial Day, offering Boston-area residents a warm, dry holiday weekend before storms roll in midweek.
According to the National Weather Service, Sunday will be mostly sunny with highs near 65°F and light winds. Memorial Day (Monday) looks even better, with temperatures climbing to 68°F under clear skies. Winds will remain light and variable, making for perfect cookout or parade conditions across the Bay State.
Tuesday keeps the warm, dry pattern alive with highs near 75°F in Boston. However, by Thursday, forecasters expect a noticeable shift: a 30% chance of showers may impact morning and evening commutes, especially along I-93 and Route 128. Residents should plan for slower traffic and potential wet pavement. Wind speeds will increase slightly, making travel more difficult for high-profile vehicles.
While no formal advisories have been issued, it’s wise to charge devices ahead of possible rain-related outages later in the week. Outdoor plans Tuesday and Wednesday should be safe, but anyone planning events for Thursday should monitor updates.
Nighttime lows will hover in the upper 40s to mid-50s, keeping evenings comfortable through midweek. Memorial Day marks a seasonal turning point, bringing early summer vibes to the region.
Looking ahead, Friday could bring more rain, with another round of scattered showers possible. This week’s forecast shows a textbook shift from sunny, tranquil weather into an unsettled pattern—so enjoy the dry stretch while it lasts. More updates will follow if Thursday’s rain chances increase or if any weather alerts are issued.
