Western Massachusetts could see highs in the 70s next week.
SPRINGFIELD – Clouds and showers will be the rule for Easter weekend in Western Massachusetts, abc40 / Fox 6 meteorologist Mike Masco said.
“Right now, Saturday looks to be the wetter of the two days,” he said, adding that some sunshine is possible for Sunday.
Thursday will see sunny skies with unseasonably cool weather with highs in the low- to mid-50s and gusty breezes, Masco said. Overnight temperatures could dip into the middle 20s early Friday.
The record low for April 22 at Westover Air Reserve Base in Chicopee is 22.
Temperatures Friday, however, should climb into the upper-50s before sunshine gives way to high clouds as the wet weather heads out way.
Warmer weather, with highs pushing into the 70s, will head our way next week, Masco said.
