Monday showers then cooling down

GRAB AN UMBRELLA

Scattered showers will pass through this morning and midday. By mid-afternoon, the rain should taper off, and we’ll even see some breaks of sunshine. We’ll just have to watch for an isolated shower through the evening commute - far from anything widespread by then.

Temperatures will also be a bit cooler than average with highs only reaching the low to mid-60s. Grab the rain jacket on your way out the door, though you probably won’t need it for the trip home.

REAL FALL ARRIVES THIS WEEK

We’ll see a decent amount of sunshine the rest of the week with some scattered clouds each afternoon. The overnights and mornings will be chilly. We’re expecting sunrise lows in the 40s each day. A first frost is possible in some of far inland locations later in the week, bit it doesn’t look widespread. By the weekend, temperatures should bounce back to the upper 60s or low 70s with more sunshine.

HURRICANE MILTON

Hurricane Milton will be the second major hurricane to make landfall in Florida in two weeks. The current timeline has the worst of the weather Wednesday and Wednesday night, but the exact timing isn’t set in stone. Flooding rain, a major storm surge, and destructive winds will affect a large swath of Florida. Milton is expected to cross the peninsula and move out into the Atlantic, unlike Hurricane Helene which curved into southeastern MA after a landfall along the Big Bend then dumped extreme rain across the southeast.
