SPECIAL: New England Columbus Day Weekend Forecast

The fall foliage is peaking across most of New England this weekend and will continue to expand into Boston over the next few weeks. This is a forecast for the weekend for the northern lakes and mountains region where the foliage is peaking now or just past peak. I will also give my regular weekend forecast for the Boston area. On Friday clouds will increase in the Boston area, but stay sunny up north. Then rain will expand into Southern New England on Saturday morning before drying out. However, the rain will not reach Northern New England. Sunday and the holiday itself look dry throughout the area.

Northern Lakes And Mountains foliage report:

The highest peaks have already lost most of their leaves, but in most areas the reds and oranges are still great. This weekend will be great for leaf peeping. In the next week more leaves will fall and it will become less colorful.

Northern Lakes and Mountains Long Weekend Forecast:


Friday: Mostly sunny with highs in the mid to upper 50's.

Friday night: Partly to mostly cloudy. Lows in the 30's to low 40's.

Saturday: Partly to mostly sunny with highs in the upper 50's.

Saturday night: Clear with lows in the 30's.

Sunday: Mostly sunny with highs in the 50's.

Columbus Day: Mostly cloudy with highs in the mid 50's.

Boston area foliage report:

The area is still green in some areas-especially close to the city. However, over the next couple of weeks more color will expand into the city. As, the next 10 days to 2 weeks will be the peak of the laves before more leaf drop starts.

Boston forecast:

Tonight: Clear with a low of 45.

Friday: Mostly sunny in the morning, then increasing clouds in the afternoon. High 63. West wind of 10-15 MPH.

Friday night: Cloudy in the evening, then periods of rain late. Lows in the upper 40's.

Saturday: Rain in the morning, then partly sunny in the afternoon. Highs in the upper 50's.

Sunday: Sunny with highs around 60.

Columbus Day: Sunny with highs in the mid 60's.

Tuesday: Increasing clouds with highs near 70.

Tropics: Watching a cluster of storms north of Puerto Rico that is expected to develop. Stay tuned!
