Break out the sunscreen, Bay State. This weekend's weather is supposed to beautiful -- even a little hot.
We'll warm our way through the weekend and into Monday, keeping temperatures high and sunshine out.
That starts Friday, with a cool wind that helps mask a possible high of 85 degrees in some parts of the state, and lasts at least until next Tuesday, when rain and thunderstorms are possible.
