For the first time in a long time, it could be 60 degrees tomorrow. Forecasters said Friday's temperature spike - which could break into the lows 60s - could be accompanied by scattered showers, locally heavy rainfall, a few rumbles of thunder and gusty winds.

The rain will pitter-patter through the morning, but intensify into the evening, especially south of Boston. The Boston area will see a steadier rain around 8 p.m. Locally stronger precipitation is possible, while it may be hit-or-miss in other places. You can see the NWS Boston radar simulation below for a timeline.

Forecasters are also calling for a very breezy day, with gusts up to 20 miles per hour through the afternoon.
