Get ready for some unsettled weather this weekend into the new year!
As we move through Saturday morning, heads up! It’s a First Alert. Parts of Greater Boston could see periods of freezing rain, capable of producing a light glaze on some roads, bridges and elevated surfaces.
A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for parts of our area until early Saturday afternoon.
As precipitation makes contact with surfaces at or below freezing, ice could develop, making it slippery in spots as most folks are heading back home from the holiday. While this will not be a crippling event for central and eastern Massachusetts, still, slow down while driving!
As temperatures rise into the upper 30s and lower 40s Saturday afternoon, scattered rain showers will be the rule, and the First Alert will be lifted. Low temperatures tonight will drop into the upper 30s.
