Good evening. Massachusetts. I'm Aaron Jolly.

Talk about a tale of two states today. Down along the coast, you're soaking up a seasonable 47 degrees — right where we should be. But head inland toward Worcester and the Berkshires? It’s a different world. You're stuck in the mid-20s with a biting wind that cuts right through your jacket.

As the sun sets. Clear skies tonight mean temperatures nosedive, eastern Massachusetts bottoms out at 32 degrees by 4 A.M. Central MA dips to 27, the Berkshires will be the cold spot, falling to 26. It’ll feel like the teens across the interior, so grab that extra layer if you're heading out early.

Sunday offers a quiet reset, partly sunny skies take over statewide, with highs reaching the mid-40s everywhere. It’s a decent day to get outside before things get interesting.

And change they will, a powerful low-pressure system targets New England for Monday. Rain arrives after 1 A.M. Sunday night, monday turns raw and wet, with rain and possibly thunderstorms. Temperatures surge to near 60 degrees in the east.

Moving on. Here’s the dangerous part, a High Wind Watch is in effect for the coast. We could see damaging wind gusts up to 60 miles an hour Monday night. Heavy rain could lead to street flooding in the usual spots.

Temperature-wise. The storm exits early Tuesday, we clear out but turn much colder. Highs crash into the 40s. Tuesday night brings a hard freeze, with lows in the teens and 20s. Wednesday stays sunny and chilly near 39 degrees, before we slowly moderate back to the upper 40s by Friday.

As the sun sets. Keep those trash cans secured tonight. —

See you tomorrow.
