Boston weather today is sunny and pleasant at 57°F, with light northeast winds of 2 to 10 mph—a perfect setup for getting outside before a rainy stretch moves in mid-week.
Tonight will stay mostly dry with lows around 43°F, so if you’re heading to the Celtics vs. 76ers playoff game at TD Garden this evening, you won’t need an umbrella for your walk from the parking lot. Bundle up a bit—that northeast breeze will feel crisp. Grab some Official team gear on Fanatics to show your support, and snag tickets on SeatGeek if you’re still looking.
Today is prime time to tackle outdoor projects. If you’ve been waiting to mow the lawn or work in your garden, this is your window—conditions stay dry through tonight. Spring is here, and lawn fertilizer spring applications work best on dry ground. For those planning to grill, a portable propane grill is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner in your backyard or at a local park like Boston Common or the Esplanade.
Here’s the heads-up: Wednesday through Thursday will be wet. Rain showers develop after 1 PM Wednesday (around 30% chance), but the real soaker arrives Wednesday night into Thursday, when we’re expecting widespread rain with an 80–95% chance of precipitation. The National Weather Service has increased rainfall amounts for this system, so plan indoor activities for Thursday. If you’re catching the Dethklok & Amon Amarth concert at MGM Music Hall at Fenway on Wednesday night, you’ll want to bring an umbrella—conditions will be damp by showtime. Grab a Dethklok t-shirt to commemorate the show, and Find tickets on StubHub if you’re still in.
The cooler, unsettled pattern lingers into the weekend, so don’t put away the layers yet. Allergy season is ramping up with that northeast wind bringing pollen off the water—if you’re sensitive, Claritin non-drowsy allergy medication will help you enjoy today’s sunshine comfortably.
For dinner tonight, a simple grilled pasta with seasonal vegetables takes advantage of your grill time and won’t tie you to the kitchen. You can order groceries on Amazon and have everything for tonight’s dinner delivered to your door, including fresh produce and Amazon Fresh groceries for quick meal prep.
Next few days: Expect rain Wednesday afternoon through Thursday morning, with conditions gradually improving Friday but staying cool. Plan accordingly—today’s sunshine is a gift. Make the most of it.
