Rain and snow on the way

FRIDAY SUNSHINE

After a few light flurries last night, we’re waking up to clearer skies and crisp, chilly temperatures. It’s a seasonable start to the day with highs reaching the mid to upper 30s, thanks to plenty of sunshine. Grab that jacket – it’s definitely going to feel cool out there!

WEEKEND IN VIEW

As we move into the weekend, we’ll see a shift in the weather. Clouds will start to return on Saturday, and temperatures will warm up a bit, reaching into the mid-40s. We’re expecting rain to move in during the late afternoon and evening, but don’t expect a major washout. Rainfall amounts will generally range from 1/4″ to 1/2″, and the rain will clear out by Saturday night, causing only a minor impact.

Sunday is shaping up to be an interesting day. While it will start off dry, we’ll see snow arrive in the late afternoon and evening, and it will stick around through Monday morning. It’s looking like this will be a plowable snowfall, with most of southern New England expected to see 2-5″ of snow. The Cape and Islands will see lighter accumulations, with a coating to 2 inches possible. Of course, there’s always the possibility of slight shifts in the storm track, which will change snow totals and the areas that get hit hardest. Be sure to check back with us over the weekend for the latest updates on this developing storm.

BITTER COLD

Once the snow clears, get ready for some of the coldest air of the season. Highs on Tuesday and Wednesday will struggle to reach the teens, and morning lows will dip into the single digits.

Be sure to keep an eye on the forecast this weekend as we fine-tune the details. We’ll keep you updated with any changes.
