DAYS 1-5 (DECEMBER 7-11)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
High pressure brings dry and cold weather today, but we’ll already be impacted in a way by the developing low to the south that we’ve been eyeing for early this week. That system will spread high to mid level cloudiness across the sky during the day today, eventually limiting the short-lived sunshine, which is now setting at its earliest of the year (4:11 p.m. at Boston). That storm system, passing southeast of the region on Tuesday, will indeed be far enough offshore to avoid direct impact, but the northeast to north wind on the back side of its circulation will pick up enough Atlantic moisture to deliver snow & rain showers to the MA East Coast, especially the South Shore, as well as Cape Cod. There is the possibility for some minor snowfall accumulation if any location that sees persistent snow showers, but this would be localized and would melt away after it stopped falling. If a little snow should fall on an ice patch, it can create a very small but very hazardous “slip & slide” zone, and one you probably don’t want your foot finding, so keep that in mind should you live in an area that gets dusted with snow – otherwise this will not be a big deal. The next disturbance will dive southeastward out of Canada, a bit more quickly than I previously thought, bringing some cloudiness and a few snow showers later Wednesday. Again these should be non-impactful, but there is always the chance that one briefly moderate snow shower could cause a brief dusting on some surfaces. High pressure builds in Thursday and Friday with fair weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (DECEMBER 12-16)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Weekend storm system brings some unsettled weather but temperature profile is somewhat uncertain, dependent on the position of frontal boundaries. Will refine this forecast as we go through the week. Fair, seasonably chilly weather follows this but another low pressure area may bring a chance of rain\/mix\/snow by the end of the period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (DECEMBER 17-21)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chance of rain\/mix\/snow early in the period depending on the development and track of low pressure. Fair, colder to follow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
