Hold on to your hats, because it’s going to be a gusty end to the workweek. Under thick clouds and temperatures in the mid 50’s, you’ll see winds gusts that could near 30 miles per hour. There is a chance for rain as midday approaches, but the National Weather Service doesn’t expect more than a tenth of an inch to fall. Temperatures will then take a significant dip into the 20’s and low 30’s in Eastern Massachusetts. Winds will also pick up the pace with a sustained speed between 23 and 28 miles per hour and gusts that could reach around 45.
