Southerly winds will push temperatures through the 40s this morning and well into the 50s this afternoon.
Rain Moves In Tonight
A low pressure area over the Deep South will ride northward up the Appalachians tonight, passing through New England on Friday. This storm center will bring a period of rain and gusty winds to the region, beginning this evening and continuing into the early to mid afternoon hours on Friday.

The end result will [...]
