Spring Temperatures Return for the Weekend

By LIZ TAURASI (Patch Staff)

CHELMSFORD, MA - After last weekend’s sub zero temperatures, this weekend is going to certainly be a welcome one.

Spring is in the air as Chelmsford should see temperatures in the 50s both Saturday and Sunday.

But remember, this is New England and even though the first official day of spring is just a month away, there is some snow in the forecast.

Coming off a warm weekend, temperatures are expected to plummet Sunday night and bring with it a mix of rain and snow showers. Worried we might not get enough snow? Don’t worry. Forecasters are saying we could see snow again on Wednesday.

Here’s a look at Chelmsford’s forecast for the next few days:

• Saturday: Cloudy early with partial sunshine later in the day and a high of 54 degrees. Clear to partly cloudy Saturday night with a low of 34.

• Sunday: A mostly sunny day with a few afternoon clouds and a high of 50. Mainly cloudy with a mix of rain and snow showers Sunday night as temperatures drop to a low of 27.

• Monday: The workweek starts with partly sunny skies and a high of 39. Mostly clear skies expected Monday night with a chilly low of 19 degrees.
