Weekly weather forecast

For the week of Friday, April 25, to Friday, May 2.

Waltham closes out April with a taste of everything spring has to offer: sunshine, warmth, rain and wind.

Friday offers mild and dry conditions, but a potent low-pressure system moves in Saturday, bringing widespread rain, gusty winds and even the chance for thunderstorms.

Sunday turns much cooler and breezy as dry air returns.

The pattern then flips, delivering a stretch of near-perfect weather early next week with abundant sunshine and rising temperatures into the 70s.

A potential cold front midweek could interrupt the fair weather with scattered showers by Wednesday or Thursday, though confidence remains low on exact timing and coverage.

Overall, the week showcases a classic spring transition with changing skies, fluctuating temperatures and hints of summer warmth ahead.
