A day after a significant storm system that brought winds at speeds higher than 60 mph dumped more than 4 inches of rain on parts of Massachusetts, forecasters say to expect a much calmer weather pattern Thursday.
Attleboro, where 4.19 inches fell, got more rain than any other part of the state, according to the National Weather Service. The highest wind speeds clocked were in coastal areas: in Hull, where gusts reached up to 65 mph, and in Woods Hole in Falmouth, where a 66 mph gust was clocked Wednesday.
The weather service published rain totals for each part of the state that received an inch or more. Here’s how much rain fell.
In the wake of the storm, a “blustery westerly flow of chillier air was working back into the region,” forecasters wrote. Daytime temperatures on Thursday are expected to be in the mid to high 30s or low 40s, with wind chills in the 20s through the afternoon.
It will remain blustery — though not nearly as windy as Wednesday — with gusts expected to reach up to about 35 mph.
Friday will be even colder, with highs in the upper 20s to mid 30s.
The next chance for precipitation comes early Sunday evening, though forecasters say what exactly to expect is still uncertain.
