Variable clouds overnight with a better chance of rain for Saturday.
An approaching system from the west is pushing a fair amount of cloud cover into New England overnight. While we are expected to stay dry heading towards the morning, it will be muggy. Overnight lows will be in the mid-60s.
For Saturday, it is a very similar story for western Massachusetts. The temperatures are seasonal, but the humidity levels will be a little bit on the high side with partly sunny skies. Scattered thunderstorms are expected to develop in the afternoon, but once again they are not expected to pose any severe threat to the region. The chance of rain on Saturday, however, will be a little more than what we've got today.
A stray shower may carry over into Sunday morning, then we will see our "best" stretch of weather on the 7-day forecast...partly cloudy skies from Sunday afternoon to Monday evening. Late-day scattered showers and thunderstorms will dominate a majority of next week. It is not expected to be a total washout all week long, but a large upper-level trough over the Northeast will keep us on our toes for those pop-up thunderstorms all the way through the workweek. Temperatures continue to stay seasonal (low-to-mid 80s) but the humidity stays a little bit elevated for a while as well.
Tonight: Variable clouds, mild and muggy, low 65.
Saturday: Scattered afternoon showers and thunderstorms, mostly cloudy, muggy, high 83.
Sunday: An isolated shower early, partly cloudy afternoon, ha little humid, high 82.
Monday: Partly cloudy, muggy, high 83.
