The higher elevations of interior New England have the potential to see scattered snow showers at times, lingering into Tuesday, even after rain chances wrap up.

Lows in the upper 30s and 40s, highs in the low 50s for Monday. The rain will greet you by morning commute time and continue and off through the early afternoon. Rain totals will be fairly uniform across Southern and interior New England around 3/4”. Rain and skies clear Tuesday and stay mostly sunny through Friday.
