Warm May temperatures will be on hold this weekend, with forecasters predicting that “unseasonably cold weather” will bring snow to parts of Massachusetts.
Rain arriving Friday night is expected to change over to a period of accumulating snow over the state’s higher elevations, according to the National Weather Service.
“Blustery conditions with near record cold temperatures are expected for Saturday with scattered rain and higher elevation snow showers,” service meteorologists said.
Western parts of Massachusetts could see accumulations of a few inches of the white stuff, and wind chills on Saturday afternoon are forecast to range between the low 20s and mid-30s.
