Mass. weather: Sub-zero wind chills expected across much of the state Sunday night
The frigid weather that's chilled Massachusetts over the past week is set to continue Sunday night as communities across the state experience more sub-zero wind chills, but meaningfully warmer temperatures are on their way, according to the National Weather Service.
Temperatures Sunday night are predicted to dip into the low teens in Eastern Massachusetts, the single-digits in Central Massachusetts and hover around zero in Western Massachusetts, according to the weather service. But wind chills will make the air outside feel colder, especially in the early morning on Monday.
Wind chill values in Boston, Gloucester and New Bedford are predicted to be around 1 degrees, while in Lowell, values could get as low as -3 degrees, according to the weather service. Wind chills in Central and Western Massachusetts are expected to be even colder, reaching around -7 degrees in Worcester and Springfield and -13 in Pittsfield.
A cold weather advisory is set to go into effect in Berkshire County at 10 p.m. Sunday night and last through 10 a.m. Monday. During this time, wind chill values between -10 and -20 degrees are possible, with the coldest wind chills expected in the higher elevations in the Berkshires, the weather service said.
A coastal flood advisory also remains in effect for the Eastern Massachusetts coastline until 2 p.m. Monday. Splashover from rough surf could cause flooding up to a foot deep on coastal roads around the time of high tide. High tide will happen around midnight on Sunday and noon on Monday.
From Monday to Thursday, daily high temperatures across the state are predicted to reach the upper 20s and low 30s amid mostly sunny skies, according to the weather service. Wind chill values are expected to largely remain above zero through Wednesday night, and overnight lows in the single-digits and low teens are expected through Thursday night.
