Thursday's Weather: Wintry Mix and Showers Expected

Wet roads can be expected for most areas as temperatures rise above freezing, with a mix of ice pellets, flakes, and isolated freezing rain in western Massachusetts, northern Worcester County, and parts of southern New Hampshire. Showers will continue throughout the morning, tapering off after lunch except for the Cape and Islands. Temperatures will reach the mid-50s in some areas, but colder temperatures are expected for the weekend with highs in the 40s and 30s in northern New England. The pattern will remain cool and quiet into late week.
