Snow showers are shifting by way of early on, however the accumulation is barely sufficient to coat the bottom in most spots.
We’re watching this weak storm ripple by way of New England throughout the early a part of the day, then rapidly scoot offshore this afternoon.
In the event you’re touring north, the scene is dramatically completely different. From Burlington, Vermont, to Bangor, Maine, the snow can be regular and infrequently heavy. We’re anticipating between 5-8 inches there into the early afternoon.
Anticipate a moderation in temperatures over the subsequent few days, partly attributable to this climate system. Highs leap again to the center 30s — and even 40 on Cape Cod — Tuesday and maintain by way of the rest of the week. We’re seeing loads of solar into the primary a part of the weekend, and by then must be seeing extra 40s unfold throughout the Commonwealth.
The sample can also be milder lengthy vary into the first of the 12 months. An approaching storm system for New Yr’s Eve/Day will run up towards a cussed high-pressure system. Which will give us a protracted interval of showers beginning late Sunday or early Monday. Highs settle within the 40s for a number of days as properly.
With the latest chilly, many could also be considering it is OK to enterprise out onto the ponds and lakes within the space throughout the holidays. Most are seemingly not protected, and with anticipated warming within the coming days, these which are marginally protected will change into unsafe. Please keep away from skinny ice, partial ice, and “it seems OK” ice. Hold pets a protected distance from any frozen water physique as properly.
