Sunny, breezy start to the week

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (WGGB/WSHM) - Welcome to spring! It’s a nice start to the new season with this afternoon featuring sunshine mixed with decorative, cumulus clouds from time to time. Temps will top off in the low to middle 50′s. Low pressure pushing away will keep it breezy out of the Northwest gusting up to 35 mph. The normal highs for mid late March should are in the mid to upper 40′s, so today will a bit more like early April.

Tonight will be clear and chilly with wind diminishing. Temperatures will fall back into the 20s to near 30 degrees leading to some patchy frost by morning.

It will be sunny and breezy again tomorrow with highs in the upper 40′s and lower 50′s, so a few degrees cooler, but still nice. We stay dry through most of Wednesday as well. However clouds will be on the increase with an area of low pressure approaching.

Rain will arrive late Wednesday, lasting through Thursday low pressure system looks to develop and track toward the northeast, bringing rain with perhaps a mix in the hills. Roads will stay wet with temperatures in above freezing, in the mid to upper 30′s to 40. The steady precipitation will likely end Thursday morning, but mostly cloudy skies with a few showers into the afternoon are possible. More wet weather may arrive on Friday with low pressure off shore. Right now the weekend looks mainly dry
