Weather Alert: Wintry mix brings icy conditions

SLICK CONDITIONS OVERNIGHT

Tonight we’re dealing with a mix of snow, sleet, and some freezing rain across southern New England. Some areas had up to 4″ inches of snow, mainly in the higher elevations away from the coast. The biggest concern will be icy conditions overnight, take it easy if you’re out.

Wednesday starts with some lingering black ice and fog, possibly even freezing fog, give yourself extra time if you are out before sunrise.

REST OF THE WEEK

Skies will brighten Wednesday and temperatures rise to near 50 degrees for most spots, a nice day! Things turn unsettled again Thursday, starting as rain before a wintry mix moves in north of the Mass Pike Thursday night into early Friday. Friday will feel raw, with highs only in the mid-30s under cloudy skies. Cold air trapped at the surface will bring the concern for icy conditions yet again, especially away from the coast. Be sure to check in with us as we fine tune the timing of rain and ice Thursday and Friday.

WEEKEND IN VIEW

The weekend brings a big warmup. Highs rise into the 50s, melting some of the snowpack and causing some area rivers and streams to rise. We are watching the potential for light rain to move through Saturday night into Sunday, but details aren’t set in stone just yet.
