The season may have changed, but the rain keeps coming.
The National Weather Service is calling for widespread rain on Monday morning that could be heavy at times in Connecticut and southeastern Massachusetts.
The rain should taper off this afternoon across northern Massachusetts, forecasters said.
“Periods of rain will continue this morning with the focus shifting to south of the Massachusetts Turnpike, while dry weather develops north of the Mass Pike this afternoon,” forecasters wrote. “A few showers may linger into Tuesday morning along the immediate south coast, along with a cool, brisk feel.”
