As heavy April showers dominated the final day of the month, the first week of May should also include “unsettled” conditions with rain at times across Massachusetts.

Just more rainfall for those May flowers to bloom.

Following a nasty rainy Sunday with heavy showers and localized flooding in poor drainage areas, the start of the workweek — and first day of May — will have drier and milder conditions in the mid-60s.

“It should fortunately clear out a bit on Monday, rapidly improving after sunrise,” Kristie Smith, meteorologist at the National Weather Service’s Boston office, told the Herald on Sunday. “Sunshine should appear around lunchtime. It should be a pleasant day.

“Unfortunately, it will then get a bit unsettled for the rest of the workweek,” Smith added.

The average high temp for Boston for the first week of May is 62 degrees. After Monday’s warm up to the mid-60s, temps are expected to dip below average into the 50s from Tuesday to Friday amid the unsettled conditions.

“We’ll see periods of clouds, rain showers, and breaks of sun throughout the week,” Smith said.

By next weekend, it could be drier and milder in the 60s. Temps may possibly approach 70 degrees in spots by Sunday.

“It’s still a week away, but it looks like we could have some warmer, sunnier weather,” Smith said.

Recently, the U.S. Drought Monitor expanded the “abnormally dry” classification across southern and eastern Massachusetts, which missed out on precipitation last week. More than 50% of the Bay State was considered abnormally dry as of April 27.

This weekend’s heavy rainfall should only help improve the abnormally dry conditions, Smith said, adding, “We’ll have to see if they remove the abnormally dry designation this week.”
