Currently in Boston — October 17th, 2022

It was a stunning weekend of beautiful weather, with lots of sunshine and abnormally warm temperatures. A new weather system will approach the area on Monday thickening the clouds and bringing showers later in the afternoon. Temperatures will be mild in the 60s. Showers continue Monday night and the first part of Tuesday. Highs will be 55°F to 62°F on Tuesday as skies clear and the sun returns. Looking ahead to Wednesday, things will start to get frosty. If you have tender vegetation you should plan on covering it or bringing it inside. This is especially true away from the coast. Highest will be in the 50s Wednesday and sunshine continues through the rest of the work week.
