The Weather Looks To Remain Quiet The Rest Of This Week Through This Weekend Across Western & Central Mass

For Tonight: Clear to partly cloudy skies this evening will turn into cloudy skies after midnight tonight as a weakening piece of energy moves across the area. Low temperatures will be between 45 and 50 Degrees. Winds will be South at 5 to 10 mph.

Thursday & Thursday Night: An area of high pressure will be in place over the area throughout Thursday and Thursday night.

This means that partly sunny skies are expected on Thursday with high temperatures between 70 and 75 Degrees. Winds will be Southwest at 5 to 10 mph.

Thursday night looks partly cloudy with low temperatures between 50 and 55 Degrees. Winds will be Southwest at 5 to 10 mph.

Friday: That high pressure system will move to the east leading to a southwesterly wind to set up over the area during Friday.

A mixture of sun and clouds can be expected on Friday with high temperatures between 70 and 75 Degrees. Winds will be Southwest at 5 to 10 mph.

Friday Night: A relatively weak frontal system is expected to cross the area during Friday night. Moisture looks very limited with this front and because of this, I anticipate very little overall rain.

That said, Friday night looks cloudy and there may be a few passing showers around during the after midnight hours. Low temperatures will be near 55 Degrees.

This Weekend: That frontal system should push to the east by Saturday morning. That said, a leftover shower or two is possible first thing in the morning on Saturday with increasing sunshine expected during the afternoon. High temperatures will be between 65 and 70 Degrees.

Sunday looks sunny to partly sunny with high temperatures between 65 and 70 Degrees.

Weekend Weather Forecast For Western & Central Mass

For Tonight: A stalled low pressure system located offshore of the Cape will be a nuisance for us right through this weekend.

Skies tonight will range from partly cloudy across Western Mass to generally cloudy skies across Central Mass.

Low temperatures will be near 60 Degrees. Winds will be East to Northeast at 7 to 16 mph.

Friday & Friday Night: Cloudy skies can be expected throughout Friday. In addition to this, there might be some mid and late afternoon isolated showers across eastern parts of Worcester County, including Route 146 and I-290. The rest of Western and Central Mass should stay mainly dry throughout Friday. High temperatures will be between 65 and 70 Degrees. Winds will be Northeast at 10 to 20 mph.

Friday night looks cloudy and there might be some very isolated showers across eastern parts of Worcester County. The remaining parts of Western and Central Mass should stay mostly dry throughout Friday night. Low temperatures will be near 55 Degrees. Winds will be North at 10 to 20 mph.

This Weekend: That low pressure system is expected to be located to the southeast of the Cape during Saturday before it begins to drift southward away from our area by Sunday. This all means that this weekend will be cloudy, cool and somewhat damp, especially across far eastern parts of Worcester County.

Saturday will be cloudy and there’s the possibility for some periods of light rain and drizzle during the afternoon across central and eastern parts of Worcester County, including the Worcester Metro, I-190, I-395, I-290 and Route 146. Across the rest of Central Mass and all of Western Mass, things should stay mostly dry throughout the day on Saturday. High temperatures will be between 60 and 65 Degrees. Winds will be Northeast at 10 to 20 mph.

Cloudy skies are expected on Saturday night across the entire area. There may be some periods of light rain and drizzle during the evening across Central Mass while Western Mass should stay mostly dry. Low temperatures will be between 50 and 55 Degrees.

Other Than Some Scattered Light Rain During Wednesday Night & Thursday, Much Of The Next Week Looks Dry Across Western & Central Mass

For Tonight: An area of high pressure that’s still located over our area will give us partly cloudy skies throughout tonight. It should be noted that areas of fog and low clouds may occur in some spots late tonight through sunrise Tuesday morning.

Low temperatures will be between 50 and 55 Degrees. Winds will be Southwest at 5 to 10 mph.

Tuesday: Areas of fog and low clouds will give way to partly sunny skies by mid to late morning. Skies during Tuesday afternoon are expected to be partly sunny across the entire area.

High temperatures will be between 75 and 80 Degrees. Winds will be South to Southwest at 5 to 10 mph.

Tuesday Night: Generally partly cloudy skies are expected during Tuesday night. Low temperatures will be between 55 and 60 Degrees. Winds will be South at 5 to 10 mph.

Wednesday Through Friday: The weather forecast becomes a little more uncertain as a low pressure system now located over southeastern North Carolina tries to track northward towards our area. How far north this low pressure system tracks will depend on whether the high pressure system over our area deflects it to the east or not.

At this point, I think that areas north of the Mass Pike should stay dry. Areas near and especially south of the Mass Pike may see some light rain during Wednesday night and Thursday. Even in areas that do see light rain are likely to see amounts that are too light to really matter in terms of alleviating the dry conditions.

Wednesday looks cloudy with high temperatures between 75 and 80 Degrees.

Wednesday night and Thursday are expected to be cloudy with some periods of light rain across areas near and south of the Mass Pike. Low temperatures Wednesday night will be near 60 Degrees. High temperatures Thursday will be near 70 Degrees.

Friday looks cloudy with high temperatures near 70 Degrees.

This Weekend: Skies look to become partly sunny during Saturday as that low pressure system departs to the east. High temperatures Saturday will be between 65 and 70 Degrees.

Sunday looks partly sunny with high temperatures near 65 Degrees.
