How Much Rain is Beverly Getting This Week?

By Les Masterson

The gloom has arrived -- and it isn’t leaving for a while.

7News’ Jeremy Reiner said the “slow-moving system” will bring rain in waves on Wednesday and Thursday with the bulk of the rain hitting the area between Wednesday afternoon and Thursday morning. A raw wind will accompany the rain. Temperatures may struggle to reach 60 degrees until the weekend.

Some parts of Massachusetts may see as much as 3 inches of rain this week.

How much rain is Beverly expected to get this week? The National Weather Service is predicting between 2 to 2.5 inches.

Flooding from rivers and streams is not expected because of the low water levels from lack of rain.

The skies should brighten on Friday.
