Worcester Tercentennial Weekend Forecast: Pleasant, But Rain Possible
It'll be a nice weekend for Worcester's 300th birthday festivities, according to forecasts.
WORCESTER, MA — It's going to be a very pleasant 300th birthday weekend in Worcester — with one rainy caveat.
Temperatures will stay in the upper 70s on both weekend days, but rain showers will move into the region on Sunday — although nothing close to what we saw with the deluge on Thursday morning.
Most of the outdoor activities planned for the Worcester's tercentennial this weekend take place on Saturday, including a 5K, parade and festival on the common. Sunday's big tercentennial concert is at the DCU Center, although there is a special Worcester Bravehearts game planned at 4 p.m.
Here's the full tercentennial weekend forecast from the National Weather Service:
Friday Night: Increasing clouds, with a low around 55. West wind 6 to 8 mph.
