Boston, MA – High winds of 30 to 40 mph are sweeping across Massachusetts today, posing travel risks along I-95 and coastal highways. Drivers should exercise caution, especially during the afternoon when gusts peak near 40 mph in Boston and Hyannis.
According to the National Weather Service, temperatures will remain in the mid-40s today, with sunny skies providing some relief. However, the blustery northwest winds make outdoor activities less comfortable. Tonight’s low will drop to 35°F, with wind gusts still reaching up to 23 mph.
Looking ahead, Thanksgiving Week in the Boston area begins with sunny skies Monday and a high of 51°F, but a chance of rain develops late Monday night into Tuesday. Rain is expected early Tuesday, with a high near 54°F and calmer southeast winds. Travel midweek could be affected by lingering precipitation, especially on Thanksgiving Day when light rain is possible.
Thanksgiving Day will feature a mix of sun and clouds, with highs around 50°F and a 40% chance of showers in the afternoon. Travelers should check weather updates before hitting the road, especially as cold, wet conditions may impact visibility and driving conditions.
The end of the week brings drier skies, with sunny weather expected Wednesday and Friday. Highs will hover in the upper 40s, and lighter winds will provide relief from today’s blustery start.
