Tuesday Forecast

7:31AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 31-FEBRUARY 4)
A clipper low will track just south of New England tonight, basically the right track for a southern New England snowfall. This will be a light to moderate snowfall. The elongated nature of this system will keep the snow going into the early hours of Wednesday before it all lifts to the north and out of here. But an additional disturbance may fire off some snow showers/squalls Wednesday afternoon, with one final one bringing yet another chance of a few more on Thursday. Fair and cold weather will dominate Friday and Saturday.
TODAY: Clouding up. Snow developing southwest to northeast this afternoon. Highs 27-34. Wind light variable.
TONIGHT: Overcast. Snow of varying intensity with general accumulation of 2-5 inches regionwide except a few amounts under 2 inches near the South Coast and isolated amounts of over 5 inches possible northern CT, northern RI, south central MA, and east coastal MA to southeastern NH. Lows 19-27. Wind NE 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy early with snow lingering in northeastern MA and southern NH, then a sun/cloud mix with scattered snow showers and snow squalls in the afternoon. Any squalls can briefly reduce visibility and quickly coat roads with snow. Highs 32-40. Wind N 5-15 MPH early, then W 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 20-28. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated snow showers. Highs 30-38. Wind W 10-20 MPH shifting to NW.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 15-23. Highs 28-35.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 12-20. Highs 28-35.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 5-9)
Next low pressure area may track north of the region later February 5 into February 6 bringing mix/rain showers and milder air, and a follow up system around February 8 may do the same, but the forecast confidence for this period is lower than average, so will re-evaluate for the next update.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 10-14)
Weather looks fairly quiet and seasonably chilly heading toward the middle of February. But again lower confidence here and will re-visit this tomorrow.

Monday Forecast

7:21AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 30-FEBRUARY 3)
For days on end I was eyeing the possibility of a snow event somewhere in the last 4 days of January. That “event” is actually taking place, but 99% of it is just barely offshore to the south of New England, with the other 1% probably bringing a little mix/snow to Nantucket later today. For the rest of the southern New England region, it’s more dry weather with a seasonable chill to the air. We’re now in a pattern of colder weather compared to what we have seen for most of January, and this will also continue into the first few days of February. A strung out area of low pressure with several centers, kind of a broken up clipper system, will slide east southeastward out of Canada and across New England Tuesday and Wednesday with some light snow and snow showers. This will reinforce the cold air for later this week.
TODAY: Sun and high clouds most areas, but thicker clouds along the South Coast with a risk of some snow/mix Nantucket. Highs 32-40. Wind W 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Decreasing clouds. Risk of snow with minor accumulation Nantucket early. Lows 15-22. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY: Increasing clouds. Risk of light snow in the afternoon. Highs 30-38. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY NIGHT: Mainly cloudy. Periods of light snow with minor accumulation. Lows 20-28. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow showers. Highs 32-40. Wind N 10-20 MPH.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 15-22. Highs 28-35.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 13-20. Highs 28-35.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 4-8)
Fair and cold weather February 4-5. Low pressure area may bring snow/mix February 6. Fair weather returns February 7 but is quickly followed by another storm threat February 8.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 9-13)
Temperatures near to below normal with a couple disturbances bringing minor precipitation threats.

Sunday Forecast

2:23AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 29-FEBRUARY 2)
A cold front moves northwest to southeast across New England today but will have very little moisture to work with. Snow showers that occur in the mountains to the north and west will likely never make it into southeastern New England. What the front will do is bring colder air in for the start of the new week and the last couple days of January. A low pressure area developing south of Long Island Monday will track east northeastward, passing mostly south of New England, but may be close enough to clip Nantucket with some snow/mix. A clipper low pressure system will come along Tuesday with the treat of some light snow and minor accumulation. This will be an elongated system and will hang around into Wednesday with some snow showers. Dry and colder weather is expected Thursday with a strong northerly air flow from Canada.
TODAY: Partly sunny. Highs 36-43. Wind W 10-20 MPH and gusty, shifting to NW late.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 18-25. Wind NW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
MONDAY: Sun and high clouds most areas, but thicker clouds along the South Coast with a risk of some snow/mix Nantucket. Highs 32-40. Wind W 5-15 MPH with higher gusts.
MONDAY NIGHT: Decreasing clouds. Risk of snow with minor accumulation Nantucket early. Lows 15-22. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
TUESDAY: Mostly cloudy. Periods of light snow with minor accumulation. Highs 30-38. Wind variable 5-15 MPH.
WEDNESDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow showers. Lows 20-28. Highs 32-40.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 15-22. Highs 28-35.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 3-7)
Fair and cold weather February 3-5. Watching a storm threat for later in the period, February 6-7.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 8-12)
Temperatures near to below normal with a couple disturbances bringing minor precipitation threats.

Saturday Forecast

9:49AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 28-FEBRUARY 1)
A west to northwest air flow and cooling trend continues through Monday. A reinforcing cold front may bring a few rain/snow showers to the region Sunday. A clipper system from Canada will bring a chance of some light snow later Tuesday to early Wednesday, but may have to tweak timing and impact depending on the exact track of this system.
TODAY: Sun/cloud mix. Highs 38-45. Wind W 10-20 MPH gusting 25-35 MPH, strongest in open areas and higher elevations.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 26-33. Wind W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.

A colder period overall. Mainly dry but watch for a snow/mix threat by the end of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 7-11)
Seasonable to colder than average with 1 or 2 storm threats.

Friday Forecast

7:26AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 27-31)
A general westerly flow and cooling trend will take place the next few days. Disturbances embedded in the flow may result in a few rain/snow showers today and a few snow showers Sunday. By Monday-Tuesday we’ll need to keep an eye on an evolving offshore storm in case it comes close enough to bring steadier precipitation, but leaning toward the drier scenario for now.
TODAY: Variably cloudy. Isolated rain/snow showers. Highs 38-45. Wind WSW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 22-30. Wind W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 32-40. Wind W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.

TUESDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow showers. Lows 18-26. Highs 30-38.

DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 1-5)
A disturbance may bring a risk of snow to start the period but timing and placement is not certain at this point. Generally dry and seasonable to colder than average otherwise.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 6-10)
Overall chilly pattern, and a couple snow/mix chances come along as well.

Thursday Forecast

7:26AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 26-30)
A warm front brought some light rain to portions of southern New England overnight. A cold front will create some rain showers today, but it will also be quite mild ahead of the front. When we get to Friday, a cooling trend will commence and last the remainder of the period, as we get into a northwesterly air flow and colder air slowly drains out of Canada. Disturbances can create a few rain/snow showers Friday, and a few snow showers Sunday-Monday, and we’ll also have to watch for a possible offshore storm Sunday and/or Monday. Current indications are that this would occur too far offshore to impact the region, but should be watched in case it ends up closer than expected.
TODAY: Mostly cloudy. Scattered rain showers. High 46-54. Wind SW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts possible.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 30-38. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated rain/snow showers. Highs 38-45. Wind WNW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts possible.
FRIDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 22-30. Wind WNW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 32-40. Wind NW 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow showers. Lows 20-28. Highs 32-40.
MONDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow showers. Lows 18-26. Highs 30-38.

DAYS 6-10 (JANUARY 31-FEBRUARY 4)
Additional disturbances may bring a risk of snow or snow showers sometime in the January 31-February 1 time frame, then fair weather returns. Temperatures near to below normal.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 5-9)
Briefly milder early in the period, a mid period risk of rain/snow, then fair and colder later weather following.

Wednesday Forecast

7:14AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 25-29)
Low pressure finally pulls away and high pressure builds in from the west today with dry weather, but low pressure will then track north of the region Thursday bringing mild air and rain showers. After that we trend toward more seasonable cold during the Friday-Sunday period with mainly dry weather, but there still remains one wild card of an approaching upper trough later in the weekend and will watch for that to kick off the threat of snow showers.
TODAY: Clouds dominate the morning and any drizzle ends eastern coastal areas. Sun dominates afternoon. Highs 39-46. Wind W 10-20 MPH, higher gusts possible.
TONIGHT: Increasing clouds. Chance of light rain after midnight. Lows 35-42 evening, rising overnight. Wind SW 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY: Mostly cloudy. Chance of light rain early. Chance of rain showers in the afternoon. High 46-54. Wind SW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts possible.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 30-38. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Highs 38-45. Wind WNW 10-20 MPH, higher gusts possible.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 22-30. Highs 32-40.
SUNDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of snow showers. Lows 20-28. Highs 32-40.

DAYS 6-10 (JANUARY 30-FEBRUARY 3)
Watching for a potential snow event January 30 and/or 31, otherwise a couple episodes of snow showers possible from passing disturbances in an overall dry and seasonably chilly pattern.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 4-8)
Again overall pattern looks more seasonably chilly and will watch for a couple snow/mix threats during this period.

Tuesday Forecast

7:36AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 24-28)
Storm continues to impact the region today then makes a slow exit tonight and early Wednesday. A weaker low pressure area passes north of the region Thursday. The end of the week turns somewhat colder.
TODAY: Overcast. Periods of rain, some mix north central MA and southwestern NH. Highs 33-44, coldest north central MA and southwestern NH and mildest South Coast. Wind NE to N 15-30 MPH with higher gusts.
TONIGHT: Cloudy. Periods of rain. Temperatures steady 33-44. Wind NW 15-25 MPH with higher gusts, diminishing overnight.
WEDNESDAY: Partly sunny. Highs 45-52. Wind W 5-15 MPH.

FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows 25-32. Highs 38-45.
SATURDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 18-25. Highs 32-40.

DAYS 6-10 (JANUARY 29-FEBRUARY 2)
Colder during this period with snow showers possible at times.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 3-7)
Cold early in the period, then moderating somewhat. Mainly dry weather to start. Snow/mix threat increases later in the period.

Monday Forecast

7:34AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 23-27)
No big changes. Broad low pressure coming off the Mid Atlantic Coast bumps into high pressure centered north of New England and brings and significant wind and precipitation (mostly rain) event to the region through Tuesday. A break followed Wednesday. Weak low pressure passes north of the region Thursday then colder air arrives Friday.
TODAY: Overcast. Spotty rain/snow/sleet. Highs 35-43. Wind NE to E increasing to 15-25 MPH, gusts 35-50 MPH by late in the day especially coastal MA/RI.
TONIGHT: Overcast. Rain, heavy at times, but some sleet/snow mixed in north central MA and southwestern NH with minor accumulation. Temperatures steady 35-43. Wind NE 15-35 MPH, gusts 45-60 MPH, strongest along the coast.
TUESDAY: Overcast. Rain likely, becoming more intermittent but with drizzle continuing later in the day. Patchy fog. Highs 39-47. Wind NE to N 15-25 MPH with higher gusts.
WEDNESDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows 32-40. Highs 40-48.
THURSDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of rain showers. Lows 35-42. Highs 45-52.
FRIDAY: Partly cloudy. Isolated snow showers. Lows 26-33. Highs 36-43.

DAYS 6-10 (JANUARY 28-FEBRUARY 1)
Risk of snow/mix at some point over the weekend of January 28-29. Mainly fair January 30-31. Risk of snow/mix February 1. Temperatures near normal.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 2-6)
Rain/mix possible early period then mainly dry weather. Temperatures near to below normal.

Sunday Forecast

2:24AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 22-26)
A cold front drops through southern New England from north to south this morning and brings a northeast wind flow from the Maritimes of Canada. This will turn the air chilly and damp and may result in spotty drizzle and even a few snow flakes. Not expecting all that much precipitation through the early hours of Monday, however. It will take until the middle of the day Monday for precipitation from a broad and fairly strong storm system moving to the Mid Atlantic Coast via the Tennessee Valley to reach southern New England. It will do so in the form of snow/sleet in parts of northern and central MA as well as southern NH with rain/sleet elsewhere. Eventually, rain will overtake the entire region through there may be some icing in areas of north central MA and southwestern NH where colder air is trapped at the surface. Not expecting this to be a widespread problem, however. The heaviest push of precipitation will be rain throughout the region Monday evening, but other waves of rain will occur into Tuesday as the low pressure center wobbles its way just south of New England. Finally, it’ll have pulled away Wednesday with dry weather, and a much weaker low pressure area will pass north of the region Thursday bringing no more than a few rain showers.
TODAY: Cloudy. Areas of fog especially CT, RI, and southern MA. Areas of drizzle and a few snow flurries mainly northern MA and southern NH. Highs 40-48 in the morning, cooling slowly in the afternoon. Wind light variable shifting to NE 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Cloudy. Areas of drizzle and patchy fog. Some freezing drizzle possible north central MA and southwestern NH. Lows 31-39. Wind NE to N 5-15 MPH.
MONDAY: Overcast. Rain mixed with sleet at times developing south to north mainly afternoon but some snow/sleet north central MA and southern NH to start with minor accumulation, then rain most areas afternoon except possible freezing rain in a few pockets north central MA and southwestern NH for a while before plain rain. Highs 35-43. Wind NE to E increasing to 15-25 MPH, gusts 35-50 MPH by late in the day especially coastal MA/RI.
MONDAY NIGHT: Overcast. Rain, heavy at times. Temperatures steady 35-43. Wind NE 15-35 MPH, gusts 45-60 MPH, strongest along the coast.
TUESDAY: Overcast. Rain likely, becoming more intermittent but with drizzle continuing later in the day. Patchy fog. Highs 39-47. Wind NE to N 15-25 MPH with higher gusts.
WEDNESDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows 32-40. Highs 40-48.
THURSDAY: Variably cloudy. Chance of rain showers. Lows 35-42. Highs 45-52.

DAYS 6-10 (JANUARY 27-31)
Fair, colder January 27. Risk of snow/mix at some point over the weekend of January 28-29. Mainly fair January 30-31.

DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 1-5)
Rain/mix possible early period then mainly dry weather. Temperatures return to a more seasonable cold.

Saturday Forecast

2:21AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 21-25)
Weak high pressure holds over the region today and clouds break apart for some sun and air that is quite mild for late January. A cold front will pass through from north to south early Sunday, returning cloudiness to the region along with colder, more damp air from the Maritimes of Canada. While this is going on, a broad low pressure area will be moving east northeast through the Tennessee Valley, heading for the Northeast. It will elongate slightly and redevelop south of New England during Monday and Monday night, then track north northeastward with the new center passing southeast to east of New England during Tuesday before moving away Wednesday. This system will have a long duration and significant impact on the region with wind and mainly rain, although some snow/sleet/freezing rain will be involved as well for a part of the storm on Monday as the air will be just cold enough. The greatest threat for snow will be outside I-495 and north of the Mass Pike in MA and southwestern NH. This region will also likely see some sleet. Some snow and more likely sleet may mix in as far east as the I-95 belt closer to the Boston/Providence corridor as well during Monday afternoon. The greatest threat for freezing rain would be near Route 2 in north central MA up into southwestern NH when precipitation falls as rain Monday evening. By Tuesday, both surface and aloft should be warm enough for plain rain and it should remain this way from then on.
TODAY: Mostly cloudy morning. Mostly sunny afternoon. Highs 47-54. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 30-38. Wind light W.
SUNDAY: Mostly cloudy. Highs 38-45. Wind shifting to NE 5-15 MPH inland, 10-20 MPH coast, higher gusts South Coast.
MONDAY: Snow/sleet to ice/rain northern and central MA and southern NH, rain/sleet to rain elsewhere. Temperatures steady 32-40. Windy.
TUESDAY: Rain tapering to drizzle. Lows 32-40. Highs 40-48. Windy.
WEDNESDAY: Partly sunny. Lows 28-35. Highs 40-48.

DAYS 6-10 (JANUARY 26-30)
Mild January 26 with a weak system passing north of the region bringing the risk of rain showers. Colder air arrives by January 27 with mainly dry weather or a few snow showers. Still watching for a possible threat of snow or snow showers during the weekend January 28-29. Fair, colder at the end of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JANUARY 31-FEBRUARY 4)
A more seasonable chill as February arrives. A couple systems may bring the risk of snow showers otherwise mainly dry.

Friday Forecast

3:51PM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 20-24)
One low pressure area will approach from the southwest but fall apart as it runs into high pressure overhead tonight and Saturday. A larger and much stronger storm will come out of the south central US and make a run at New England from late Sunday through Tuesday. There is still some time to work out the details of precipitation types but it looks like the bulk of it will be rain for a large portion of the region, with snow and sleet involved for at least part of the storm for some areas, favoring northern and central MA and southern NH.
REMAINDER OF TODAY: Cloudy. Temperatures steady around 40. Wind light variable.
TONIGHT: Cloudy. Slight chance of light rain southwest of Boston late. Lows 33-40. Wind light variable.
SATURDAY: Mostly cloudy morning. Mostly sunny afternoon. Highs 47-54. Wind W 5-15 MPH.
SATURDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 30-38. Wind light W.
SUNDAY: Mostly cloudy. Highs 38-45. Wind NE 5-15 MPH inland, 10-20 MPH coast, higher gusts South Coast.
MONDAY: Snow/sleet to rain northern and central MA and southern NH, rain/sleet to rain elsewhere. Temperatures steady 32-40. Windy.
TUESDAY: Rain tapering to drizzle. Lows 32-40. Highs 40-48. Windy.

DAYS 6-10 (JANUARY 25-29)
A break break January 25 then a weak system passes north of the region with a rain shower risk January 26. Colder air filters in late next week and there will be a potential snow/mix event on the weekend of January 28-29.

DAYS 11-15 (JANUARY 30-FEBRUARY 3)
Fair weather with temperatures a little more seasonably chilly dominating most of this period. Weak systems may bring a few mix/snow showers.

Thursday Forecast

7:20AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 19-23)
Caution! Watch for ice on any untreated surfaces early to mid morning! This will improve as temperatures warm up by late morning. Low pressure pulls away today and is replaced by a weak ridge of high pressure by Friday into the weekend. This high will largely block an approaching low pressure area Friday night and Saturday which will only be able to send some cloudiness to the region but have most of its precipitation split and sent well north and south of the region. A much larger low pressure area will approach the region late Sunday and Monday, with precipitation likely holding off until Monday. I say precipitation, because even though the current indications are for mostly rain, we may be dealing with some freezing or frozen precipitation for at least a portion of the event over interior locations. Details will be ironed out.
TODAY: Decreasing clouds / increasing sun. Highs 38-45. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
TONIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 22-27 rural and suburban areas, 28-33 urban centers and immediate coast. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 38-45 Wind light variable.
SATURDAY: Variably cloudy. Lows 22-30. Highs 40-48.
SUNDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows 18-26. Highs 38-45.
MONDAY: Storm arrives with rain/wind, and the potential for some mix/ice interior areas. Lows 30-38. Highs 38-45.

DAYS 6-10 (JANUARY 24-28)
Large storm system will likely continue to impact the region January 24 with mainly rain. Milder, drier weather January 25 but a chance of rain showers January 26 as low pressure passes north of the region. This may set up a colder and potentially stormy scenario by the very end of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JANUARY 29-FEBRUARY 2)
Watch early in the period for potential of snow/mix, otherwise mostly dry and colder.

Wednesday Forecast

3:56PM

Apologies for the very late post today.

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 18-22)
Elongated low pressure hangs around through tonight then departs Thursday, taking its lingering wet weather with it. Watch for a few icy patches as the temperature will hover near or slightly below freezing especially in areas north and west of Boston through the night. High pressure builds over the region by Friday and tries to hold into the weekend. This will shield the region from one approaching low pressure area that will only manage to send some clouds in Saturday, but the precipitation will never make it. It will also keep the region fair on Sunday, so not a bad weekend overall.
REMAINDER OF AFTERNOON / EVENING: Overcast. Areas of fog. Drizzle likely. Areas of light rain, possible rain/snow mix north of Boston. Temperatures steady 31-36 north and west of Boston, 37-42 Boston south. Wind light E to N.
OVERNIGHT: Cloudy. Patchy fog and drizzle. Chance of a rain/snow shower mainly northeastern MA and southern NH. Temperatures steady 31-36 northwest, 37-42 southeast. Wind light N to NW.
THURSDAY: Decreasing clouds / increasing sun. Highs 38-45. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 22-27 rural and suburban areas, 28-33 urban centers and immediate coast. Wind NW 5-15 MPH.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 38-45 Wind light variable.
SATURDAY: Variably cloudy. Lows 22-30. Highs 40-48.
SUNDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows 18-26. Highs 38-45.

DAYS 6-10 (JANUARY 23-27)
Large storm system approaches from southwest and brings rain later January through January 24, may start with sleet some areas. Improvement briefly January 25 before weaker system passes north of the region January 26 with rain showers, then fair and colder at the end of the period.

DAYS 11-15 (JANUARY 28-FEBRUARY 1)
Watch the January 28-29 weekend for a potential storm that may have snow/mix. Fair and colder weather follows.

Tuesday Forecast

7:33AM

DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 17-21)
Low pressure approaches from the southwest later today and redevelops over or just south of the region by early Wednesday. Enough cold air will be left in the region for a period of snow/sleet in higher elevations of mainly north central MA and southwestern NH, and sleet/freezing rain in other portions of central into interior northeastern MA and southern NH, with rain closer to the coast and in areas to the south. Steadiest precipitation arrives from west to east after 4PM today and lingers through Wednesday morning before tapering off as mainly periods of light rain/drizzle southeast, light mix/snow northwest later Wednesday. Drier weather returns Thursday and Friday, probably Saturday as well as a building high pressure ridge holds off the next approaching low pressure system.
TODAY: Increasing clouds. Highs 33-40. Wind light SE.
TONIGHT: Overcast. Snow/sleet/ice central MA and southwestern NH, ice/rain elsewhere with icing most likely central MA and interior northeastern MA and southern NH. Lows 30-38. Wind light E.
WEDNESDAY: Overcast. Rain likely morning with some lingering icing north central MA and southwestern NH. Snow/sleet accumulation of 2-4 inches possible highest elevations north central MA to southwestern NH, coating to 2 inches remainder of interior southern NH to about I-495 northeastern and central MA. Periods of light rain/drizzle afternoon but possibly mixed with snow interior MA and NH. Highs 37-44. Wind NE to N 5-15 MPH.
THURSDAY: Partly sunny. Lows 28-35. Highs 38-45.
FRIDAY: Mostly sunny. Lows 20-28. Highs 37-44.
SATURDAY: Partly cloudy. Lows 18-26. Highs 38-45.

DAYS 6-10 (JANUARY 22-26)
Overall milder temperatures with at least one storm threat, favoring the middle of the period and more likely rain than ice/snow.

DAYS 11-15 (JANUARY 27-31)
Transition toward colder may begin during this period with one weak system favoring light rain/mix early period then another storm threat having a stronger possibility of having mix/snow involved, favoring the second half of the period.
