Colder Than Average Temperatures Persist Into This Weekend Across Western & Central Mass

For The Rest Of This Afternoon: A mixture of sunshine and clouds can be expected throughout the rest of this afternoon. Temperatures will be between 40 and 45 Degrees. Winds will be West at 10 to 20 mph.

Tonight: There’s the possibility that we could see another Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) display tonight as another geomagnetic storm hits the Earth. Current indications are that this solar storm may reach the Earth during the early part of this afternoon. This means that if, and that is a huge if, there are any northern lights displays, it’ll occur from just after sunset until about 9-10 pm this evening. That said, trying to forecast whether there will be an Aurora Borealis display or not is extremely difficult & oftentimes you don’t know if they’re going to happen until they’re actually occurring (like last night’s stunning display).

Now, comes the question, will the skies be cloudy, partly cloudy or clear tonight? It appears that, unfortunately, there may be quite a bit in the way of cloudiness throughout tonight. That said, I have hopes that there may be some breaks in the clouds at times possibly revealing any Aurora displays that may be occurring.

Low temperatures will be near 30 Degrees. Winds will be West at 10 to 20 mph.

Thursday: A mixture of sunshine and clouds can be expected throughout the day on Thursday.

High temperatures will be near 45 Degrees. Winds will be West at 10 to 20 mph with gusts to 30 mph.

Thursday Night: Partly cloudy skies are expected before midnight with clear skies expected during the after midnight hours. Low temperatures will be between 24 and 29 Degrees. Winds will be West to Northwest at 10 to 20 mph.

Friday: Sunny skies are expected to start the day with skies becoming partly sunny during the afternoon.

High temperatures will be between 40 and 45 Degrees. Winds will be Northwest at 10 to 20 mph with gusts to 30 mph.

This Weekend: Quite a bit in the way of sunshine can be expected during the day on Saturday. That said, increasing cloudiness looks likely by late in the day as a frontal system approaches us from the west. High temperatures Saturday will be near 45 Degrees.

That frontal system is expected to push through the area during Saturday night and Sunday morning. This means that rain looks to occur from about midnight Saturday night through all of Sunday morning. The rain looks to taper off to scattered showers during Sunday afternoon.

At this point, rainfall totals from midnight Saturday night through the day on Sunday look to average between one quarter of an inch (0.25”) and one half of an inch (0.50”).

Low temperatures Saturday night will be near 35 Degrees. High temperatures Sunday will be near 45 Degrees.
