It now appears that the cold front will lose its punch as it approaches the area, just causing scattered showers after 8 PM in the Boston area. It should be mainly dry for Trick or Treaters. During the day on Saturday winds will increase out of the SSW and temps will soar to near 70. Then, rain seems likely for at least part of Sunday, as the front stalls and a low pressure center forms along the front and comes in to New England.
