DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 6-10)
Two low pressure areas merge offshore today and tonight, then move away Saturday, with the process taking place just far enough southeast to spare the region a major storm, but close enough to put Cape Cod on the edge of it, where some accumulating snow and strong wind gusts will occur. It will be windy elsewhere too, though not as strong. A significant warm-up occurs later in the weekend through Monday as high pressure sinks to the south of the region. A back-door cold front may arrive Tuesday bringing much cooler air at least to a portion of the region.
