DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 16-20)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A relatively weak low pressure area tracks northeastward today, making a pretty close pass, probably over Cape Cod \/ Islands later in the day before exiting via the Gulf of Maine. This track brings a light to moderate snowfall to the region in general, but also allows enough warm air to come in to change the snow to rain over Cape Cod and the Islands and at least bring some mix\/change up toward the Boston area for a time during the afternoon. Pockets of sleet and freezing rain are possible in the mix area. None of that should be too long lasting, but untreated roads that see frozen \/ freezing precipitation can be slick today, so use caution and allow extra time if traveling. Conditions improve quickly tonight in terms of weather, but again any untreated surfaces that saw some melting or areas that saw rain will ice over due to cold air becoming firmly established. We have a dry and chilly midweek ahead as high pressure controls the weather. Watching another storm threat for late week – timing later Friday to very early Saturday right now. As it stands now, the upper level pattern doesn’t allow this to become a big winter storm for the region, but a light to moderate snowfall potential is definitely there, favoring areas further south. But there are still a few days to go to fine tune the details on this one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
