5:15 am
future cast. as we go through the morning, we start out with some sunshine. i notice about 7:00 or 8:00, more clouds starting to work their way in. by lunchtime, we'll have a lot of high, thin clouds out there for sure. more cloud cover the farther south you go. now as we head through the afternoon, clouds will begin to clear out from north and west. but south and east, you're still going to hang on to the clouds. there could be one or two showers around nantucket and the south coast, but that is mainly about it. it's nothing to cancel anything outside today. and then as we head through the evening hours, we're going to start to clear out, and we really do need that rain just so you know. we're down over eight inches now for the year in boston. down near seven inches of the year for worcester. and notice that area you see in tan there, that is under a moderate drought at this time. so it's all about the mild temperatures right now though. starting in the 50ings. 60's across the area. and for the day today, we're going to warm up into the upper
5:16 am
50's and lower 60's. now for tonight, we're going to drop down into the 30's with mainly clear skies so be aware of that. sunday. with a lot of sunshine tomorrow, we're only going to warm up though into the lower 50's for high temperatures. and then as we head towards sunday and monday, we're still cool on monday but temperatures then start to bump up into the upper 50's. now tuesday we're watching an area of rain. it looks like it will stay farther to the south for us. pressure. it hangs along our coastline. tuesday night into early wednesday morning parts of southeastern mass may see a sprinkle or from this. otherwise just some clouds. then it is out of here. temperatures are still warm in the lower 60's through wednesday and thursday. thursday into friday though it looks like all of us get much-needed rape. we really do need it. for now let's take the mild temperatures. antoinette and frank. antoinette: we will take it, danielle. thank you. 5:16.
