DAYS 1-5 (APRIL 12-16)
\nA warm front approaches today and passes tonight, preceded by clouds and a little wet weather, then in comes a shot of warmer air for Friday into very early Saturday before the boundary that introduced it comes back to the south, pushed by building high pressure in eastern Canada, returning the chill to the region during the course of the day Saturday, then remaining in the region for much of the holiday weekend including into Monday. The biggest questions remain for Monday are whether or not that boundary moves back much to the north ahead of a stronger low pressure system and cold front from the west, and the timing of a ribbon of heavier rain showers associated with the stronger cold front, especially with regard to the Boston Marathon and a Red Sox game. The Patriots Day Red Sox game has only been rained out 4 times (1959, 1961, 1965, and 1984). There are still a few days to fine-tune the timing of that. Onto the detailed forecast…
\nTODAY: Increasing clouds. A period of light rain late day and evening favoring Boston area northward. Highs 43-50, coolest along the coast. Wind SE up to 10 MPH.
\nTONIGHT: Mostly cloudy with a chance of light rain early, then partly cloudy with patchy fog. Temperatures steady 43-50 evening, rising to the lower 50s overnight. Wind SW up to 10 MPH.
\nFRIDAY: Mostly sunny morning. Partly sunny afternoon. Highs 53-59 South Coast, 60-66 elsewhere except 67-75 interior valleys. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
\nFRIDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 48-55. Wind light SW to W.
\nSATURDAY: Partly cloudy except becoming cloudy from northeast to southwest late-day with possible drizzle\/fog by evening. Highs ranging from 55-63 southern NH and northern and eastern MA and 64-72 to the south except cooler South Coast, then falling through the 50s to the 40s in all areas from northeast to southwest during the day and to the upper 30s at night.
\nSUNDAY: Overcast with areas of fog\/drizzle and a chance of rain possibly mixed with sleet. Temperatures steady middle 30s to lower 40s.
\nMONDAY: Cloudy. Areas of fog\/drizzle. Chance of rain. Band of heavier rain showers favoring later in the day. Lows from the upper 30s to lower 40s. Highs ranging from the middle 40s north to lower 60s south but low confidence temperature forecast at this time.<\/p>\n
