New Englanders can expect a week of mixed weather to kickoff the transitional month of November, according to the National Weather Service’s Boston office.

“It’s kind of a variable week, so we’ll have periods of dry weather and a couple of days with some wet weather,” NWS Boston meteorologist Kristie Smith told the Herald on Sunday. “Right now, we’re looking at kind of an every-other-day pattern for us.”

Monday features a mostly cloudy day with a high of around 52 and northern winds of around 7 mph with a chance of showers, mainly after midnight on Tuesday. Monday night’s low will hover around 46 degrees with a 50% chance of precipitation.

Tuesday’s high will be around 66 degrees with a 30% chance of showers, mainly before 9 a.m. Winds will be coming in from the southwest, upwards of 15 mph. Winds will pick up slightly on Wednesday, but on a sunny day with a high of 51 degrees.

Rainy conditions have a 60% chance of hitting the area again on Thursday, mainly after 1 p.m.

Friday has a 50% chance of showers with winds hitting up to 16 mph that night, going into Veterans Day on Saturday. Winds will come in at up to 18 mph from the west on a sunny Saturday with a high around 52 degrees. Gusts on Saturday will come in as high as 28 mph.

Smith said the warm temperatures this week will prevent most opportunities for any frozen precipitation, but areas such as the Berkshires and Greenfield could see some on early Thursday morning, she said. The average low 50 temps in the Boston area this week are a little bit below average for this time of the year.

“November is always kind of a very transitional month for us,” Smith said. “In these zonal patterns, you do get these low-pressure systems that kind of ride along the spine of that jet stream, and we’ll see periods of unsettled weather, but it also means that they’re pretty transient.”

The Climate Prediction Center anticipates a pretty standard November, which will set up for more chances of that frozen precipitation hitting the New England area in the coming weeks, leading into December.
