DAYS 1-5 (FEBRUARY 20-24)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Complex, changing weather in a new weather pattern during this week… Rain has already exited Cape Cod after a disturbance brought some there overnight, and today, while being mainly cloudy, will also be mainly dry, other than the chance of a passing rain shower later with a cold front. Tuesday, a small, quick-moving system will approach from the west. Initially a wave of low pressure will ripped out just to our south bringing some rain to the South Coast, then later in the day a frontal boundary and the main system will swing through from west to east with a period of rain\/mix\/snow, rain most likely to the south, mix to snow to the north (southern NH and northern MA) where a small accumulation can occur. Exit this system at night with a break into Wednesday as a narrow sliver of high pressure moves across the region, but then we enter a stretch of unsettled weather later Wednesday through Thursday and into Friday as a pair of low pressure areas track eastward, passing just to our south. This will be a colder set-up than we’ve seen for many of our storm systems this winter, and we’ll be dealing with a variety of precipitation. Right now, the idea is that things get underway as snow late Wednesday except mix\/rain South Coast, then with colder air hanging at the surface but warming aloft we see a sleet \/ freezing rain situation later Wednesday night into Thursday for much of the region, but perhaps warm enough for just rain South Coast. This breaks for a while as low number 1 exits, but then Thursday evening to early Friday low number 2 comes along with another swath of wintry precipitation, but again maybe some rain at first along the South Coast before ending as something frozen. All areas may end as snow showers Friday as the final low moves offshore, intensifies, and drags colder air in. Once we get to the end of Friday, the look and feel of mid winter will be dominant – something that we never really saw, except parts of the region for a brief time in late January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watching another low pressure area with a snow\/mix threat for the February 25-26 weekend, leaning toward Saturday night \/ Sunday morning for most likely period of impact. Active pattern may send another system with snow\/mix\/rain leaning toward frozen variety February 27 or 28. Temperatures near to below normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
