DEDHAM, Mass. — If you thought spring was here, think again because winter is still in the forecast. Snow is on tap for parts of Massachusetts and northern New England this weekend.
The Saturday storm is trending later on arrival, which would mean even less chance for snow in southern New England. This one may start as snow, especially north of the Mass Pike, but turn quickly to rain, Boston 25 Chief Meteorologist Kevin Lemanowicz shared in his latest weather blog.
“Snow arrives at night when it is colder. As the air continues to moderate, that snow will lift northward toward into northern New England and will transition to rain in much of southern New England.” Lemanowicz said in her latest forecast. “That rain-snow line gets pushed into central New England during the day on Saturday.”
The bigger concern is Route 2 northward in the morning hours which Spear says will be slippery as rain comes down and turns the roads to slush.
“It is gonna be a Saturday soaker. It’s gonna come with some strong winds as well,” Lemanowicz says
By early afternoon it will flip to rain across southern New England and rain will continue into the evening hours.
There is the potential for “heavy snow” in parts of Vermont and New Hampshire.
The storm is expected to pull out of Massachusetts by Sunday morning.
