First Alert Friday: Heavy rain, strong winds expected later this week

A First Alert has been declared for Friday

NBC Universal, Inc.

Tuesday night: Calm winds. Partly cloudy. Lows in the 40s. Wednesday: Partly cloudy. Scattered rain in the afternoon. Highs near 56 degrees. Thursday: Cloudy skies and evening downpours. Highs near 58 degrees. Friday: Showers and possible thunderstorms before noon. Warm and windy. Southerly wind 25 to 35 mph.

It’s a chilly start to Tuesday, with temperatures in the 40s. With clear skies, though, we’ll see a warmup through central Massachusetts and MetroWest Boston.

The reason temperatures are not the warmest at the coast on Tuesday is due to an onshore wind, so we’re only in the low 50s for highs. But, inland, for a second day, high temperatures will bounce back to the low and mid-60s.

Clear and nice skies trend through the morning before clouds build in, with a scattered shower possible Wednesday.

Thursday and Friday will be wet, with downpours expected Thursday evening and much of the morning drive on Friday. The next storm system will bring isolated thunder and lightning, but severe weather isn’t expected.

Out of that storm, temperatures will hold steady in the upper 50s to low 60s through the weekend, with mainly dry conditions for the marathon.
