Will it rain during the Scotland vs. Morocco match at Boston Stadium?

Meteorologists are forecasting “another nice tournament day” at Boston Stadium on Friday, June 19, for the Scotland vs. Morocco FIFA World Cup match, following unsettled weather this week.

The Group C match kicks off at 6 p.m., and thousands of soccer fans from around the world are set to converge on Boston Stadium in Foxboro, about 22 miles southwest of downtown Boston.

The National Weather Service predicts “dry weather” Friday, with any remaining thunderstorms on Thursday clearing up overnight.

“Tomorrow is looking great. The only concern for tomorrow is that it’s going to be a bit breezy,” said Caitlyn Mensch, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service.

Here’s what to expect in terms of weather in Foxboro on Friday.

On Friday, June 19, skies in Foxboro are expected to be mostly cloudy before turning sunny in the afternoon, according to the National Weather Service.

During the day, temperatures will reach 82 degrees Fahrenheit, but conditions are expected to begin cooling by the evening. There will be a west wind of 9 to 11 mph, with gusts as high as 22 mph, NWS said.

“The main issue with the gustier winds is probably, like, if you have a tent set up for tailgating, it could be a little bit of a pain, but otherwise it’s going to be a pretty comfortable day,” Mensch said.

At the 6 p.m. kickoff for the Scotland vs. Morocco match, temperatures are expected to be around 81 degrees. They’ll fall to about 76 degrees by 8 p.m., then 70 degrees by 10 p.m., 67 degrees by midnight, and 64 degrees by 2 a.m.

Friday night is forecast to be clear, with a low of around 59 degrees and a west wind of 7 to 9 mph.

The National Weather Service is not expecting much humidity on Friday evening, Mensch said.

Scotland and Morocco come from contrasting climates, which differ from the conditions expected in Foxboro on Friday.

In Glasgow, Scotland, home to the country’s national stadium, temperatures are expected to reach 64 degrees Fahrenheit on Friday, June 19, according to AccuWeather. There’ll be a mix of clouds and sunshine, along with a couple of rain showers. Winds will be from the southwest at 7 mph, with gusts of up to 24 mph.

On Friday night, temperatures are forecast to drop to 52 degrees Fahrenheit, with rain showers and southwest winds at 6 mph. Gusts could reach up to 18 mph.

In Rabat, Morocco, home to Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium, where the national soccer team plays its home matches, conditions are expected to be partly sunny and humid. Temperatures will reach 79 degrees, with west winds around 7 mph and gusts up to 20 mph, according to AccuWeather.

On Friday night, temperatures are expected to drop to 68 degrees, with mostly cloudy, humid conditions and southwest winds at 6 mph. Gusts could reach up to 18 mph.
