Mass. weather: Windy Sunday with some showers possible in the afternoon

Massachusetts will see a windy Sunday as a cold front moves into the region, bringing an end to morning rain and causing temperatures to drop in the afternoon.

Gusts of 30 to 40 mph are expected across much of the state, and potentially stronger gusts up to 45 mph in higher terrain areas such as the Berkshires and Worcester Hills, according to the National Weather Service.

Skies are expected to clear after overnight showers for partly or mostly sunny conditions.

Temperatures will be around 50 degrees along the coast; around 40 degrees throughout the state, before steadily falling through the afternoon.

In Western Massachusetts, particularly the Berkshires, there’s a likelihood of rain showers with a potential for snow showers in the afternoon as cold air moves into the region.
