Western Massachusetts is at risk for severe weather Thursday.
Susan and Candido Lopes plant one of 900 Fraser first that in ten years will become a Christmas tree at Paul Bunyan's Farm and Nursery in Chicopee.SPRINGFIELD – A cloudy day with a chance of showers is in the offing for Western Massachusetts, abc40 / Fox 6 meteorologist Mike Masco said.
Temperatures will likely hit the mid-60s although a high of about 70 is possible if enough sunshine manages to break through the clouds, he said.
Tuesday should be sunnier with highs in the mid-to-upper 70s. That warmth, however, could generate more showers and isolated thunderstorms, Masco said.
That pattern will continue Wednesday and intensify on Thursday with a chance for severe weather.
“Everything dries out Friday,” Masco said, adding that Western Massachusetts looks to be in store for a beautiful weekend.
