Chilly Start, Warm Weekend Ahead

This week, we'll see a significant temperature swing each day, starting off cool in the 40s and warming up to the 60s. This is what we call a diurnal range, which means the temperature difference between day and night. Get ready for some crisp mornings that feel just like fall! Yesterday, many areas saw some much-needed rain, but now we're back to a dry spell. The air up high is quite chilly today, which might lead to some puffy clouds forming this afternoon as the ground warms up. Don't worry, though, the day will stay mostly dry. After today, we can expect plenty of sunshine, especially for those living near Boston. However, areas further away might see a touch of frost.Thursday will be the most fall-like day, with temperatures hovering around 60 degrees after starting in the 30s and 40s. If you're not a fan of the cool weather, you'll be happy to know that by Saturday, temperatures will jump back up into the 70s! This is all thanks to a warming trend. Sunday will also be sunny, with a slight chance of showers on Monday, but nothing too significant. Let's break it down by region for today: Southern New England: Expect mostly sunny skies with temperatures reaching the mid-60s. It will be cool overnight, dipping into the 40s. Western New England: Similar to the south, but with temperatures a bit higher, between 60 and 65 degrees. The night will be clear and cool, with readings in the upper 30s to low 40s. Cape and Islands: Lots of sunshine for Cape Codders, with temperatures in the lower 60s. Northern New England: A mix of sunshine and fair weather clouds today, with temperatures in the low to mid-60s. Overnight, temperatures will drop to the 30s and lower 40s.
