Sun Makes a Return, Along With Cold Temps

NBCUniversal, Inc.

Tuesday night: Rain ends by midnight. Falling back to the low to mid 30s. Winds turn west. Wednesday: Sun returns early. Windy. Low to mid 40s. Thursday: Much colder. Sunny skies. Lighter winds. Upper 20s to low 30s. Friday: More sun. Still cold. Low 30s.

If you weren’t a fan of the damp, dreary, drab weather Tuesday, the sunshine will make a return Wednesday.

It will be a gusty day Wednesday. The cold air will lag a day behind the cold front. Temperatures will likely climb into the 40s, but then we wrap up the week with a couple of cold days.

Thursday and Friday look cold, with high temperatures back below freezing. There have been only three days in Boston this February where the temperature has been below average. It appears between Thursday and Friday we’ll be adding two more.
