While the week started on a dry note, a slow-moving storm has the potential to unload a couple of inches of rain on the Boston area at midweek.
The same storm responsible for severe weather and tornadoes over the Central states the past couple of days will send periods of rain through the mid-Atlantic Tuesday and into New England Wednesday into Thursday.
While the rain will alleviate brushfire conditions, it can bring problems on the other end of the spectrum, such as travel delays from flash and urban flooding, as well as poor visibility.
Dry weather will hold over much of the area on Tuesday.
Average temperatures for this time of the year range from a low in the middle 40s F to a high near 60.
High temperatures will be held to the 40s F in some areas Tuesday and Wednesday.
According to Senior Meteorologist Kristina Pydynowski, "Brisk winds off the Atlantic Ocean will create even lower AccuWeather.com RealFeel® temperatures.

During Thursday and Friday, the flow will become more southerly and should allow warmer air to flow northward into the region.
However, the warmer air will not mark an end to the chance of rain. The late-week pattern could allow locally heavy, gusty thunderstorms to come calling on one or more occasions.
