Wet Commute in Store 'Steady Rain' Settles In

It's going to be a wet commute home.

Precipitation is moving in from Western Mass., where it started as snow. Temperatures will remain above freezing, but the NWS says to expect "steady rain" starting between 4-5 p.m. closer to the coast, and a bit earlier inland.

All Commuter Rail lines may experience delays due to slippery rails, the MBTA said.

Also, another wind advisory is being issued for towns from along the coast, including the Cape and much of Southeastern Mass.

The National Weather Service is warning of very strong winds with gusts up to 50 miles per hour. The advisory is in effect from 1 a.m. - 10 a.m. Friday.

The areas affected are highlighted in the photo above - coastal towns from Essex, Barnstable, Norfolk, Plymouth, Bristol, Suffolk, and Middlesex are included, as well as Dukes and Nantucket.

The NWS warns of potential for downed tree limbs and power lines.
