This will be the result of low pressure moving into the Great Lakes tonight and Thursday then into southeastern Canada by Thursday night. An area of high pressure bringing us fair weather and a chilly day today will shift off to the south, and the approaching low&#8217;s warm front will then move into our area tonight and through the region on Thursday. It may be  preceded by a period of precipitation, which may fall as snow and\/or sleet in some areas west and north of Boston, before it moves through and we warm up on Thursday. But by later Thursday, we&#8217;ll already be seeing the approach of the low&#8217;s cold front, and with plenty of moisture in place, in contrast to our very dry air now, we&#8217;ll have numerous showers in the region, even the potential for some downpours which may contain thunder. This sweeps offshore overnight and a good portion of Friday, while breezy, will feature a sun\/cloud mix and fairly mild air to start off the month of April. Another rain shower is possible as a secondary cold front moves through during the afternoon or evening. This will lead to a cooler and breezy but fair weather day for Saturday. I&#8217;d been optimistic that high pressure would hold off any unsettled weather through the weekend, but a lot of guidance indicates the next system may be here as early as Sunday with more clouds and at least a minor threat of some rain shower activity, so I am leaning this way now&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TODAY: Sunshine followed by increasing clouds.
