Massachusetts Weather Alert: Snow, Rain, and Wintry Mix Set to Disrupt Weekend Travel Plans!

Massachusetts, get ready—Mother Nature is about to throw everything she’s got at you. Expect rain, snow, and icy conditions this weekend, and yes, travel could be a headache. Here’s the lowdown:

Friday: Wet, Gloomy, and Slippery

Cloudy skies will stick around most of the day, with rain rolling in by the afternoon. Temps will be around 40°F (4°C) in Boston and just a few degrees colder in Worcester and Springfield. Overnight, temperatures will drop to the mid-20s, which means that wet roads could freeze up and turn dangerous. If you’re driving Friday evening, take it slow—you don’t want any surprises on the road.

Saturday: Cold, But Bright

The rain clears out, but don’t expect a cozy Saturday. Cold air moves in, and even though the sun will make an appearance, it won’t be enough to warm things up. Highs will barely reach 31°F (-1°C), and with the windchill, it’ll feel even colder. Morning lows will be in the teens—perfect for staying under a blanket or making hot cocoa, not so much for outdoor plans.

Sunday: Snow Could Be Back

Clouds roll back in on Sunday, and there’s a chance of snow or flurries in the afternoon, especially around Springfield. It won’t be a blizzard, but even light snow could make for slick roads. Highs will hover near 31°F (-1°C) in Boston and just a bit colder in other areas. If you have travel plans, check the conditions before heading out.

What You Should Know:

  • Friday: Keep an umbrella handy and be cautious driving at night.
  • Saturday: Bundle up—it’s going to be cold and windy.
  • Sunday: Snow or no snow, slippery roads could make driving tricky.

Final Tip: Stay flexible with travel plans, and if you can, enjoy the weekend indoors. Sometimes, the best way to survive winter is with a warm drink and nowhere to be!
