Wellesley weather forecast for Aug. 20-29, 2025

August 20, 2025 by Matthew Moll

weather consultingHere’s the updated daily weather forecast by Meteorologist Matthew Moll of New England Weather Consulting:

Weather Outlook: August 20 to August 29, 2025
Cooler than normal, low-humidity conditions continue through midweek before temperatures rebound into the weekend. A midweek storm system brings widespread rain, then Hurricane Erin passes well southeast of New England on Friday, producing no direct impacts inland but stirring up rough surf, rip currents, and gusty winds across Cape Cod and the Islands. For most of Eastern Massachusetts, the pattern turns warmer and drier over the weekend. Another front brings a chance of showers late Sunday into Monday, followed by a return to seasonable and pleasant late summer weather midweek.

Wednesday, August 20 – Cool and unsettled with steady rain

Clouds thicken quickly and periods of rain develop by midday. The heaviest showers favor areas near and south of the Mass Pike, but all of Eastern Massachusetts sees at least some rainfall. Temperatures stay in the 60s, making for a damp, raw day. Travel may be slowed by heavier downpours at times.
• High: 65–67°F | Low: 55–57°F | Wind: E 5–7 mph
• Sky: Overcast with rain at times
• Chance of rain: 60% (locally heavy in spots)
• Dew point: 54–58°F

Friday, August 22 – Mostly sunny inland, windy for the Cape and Islands
