DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 26-30)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As low pressure approaches and passes through the region it will do a gelatin-wobble along a boundary near the South Coast, keeping us cool and damp. The steadiest rain falls this morning then tapers to patchy drizzle from midday on. We dry out somewhat tonight and for a good part of Saturday, but a little trough dropping into the region on Saturday can still trigger a few showers of rain, with some mix\/snow showers north of Route 2 where temperatures will be marginal to support some frozen precipitation. That colder air will drain slowly southward through Sunday as the next low pressure area approaches. There’s a little uncertainty as to when its precipitation shield overspreads the region. The earlier Sunday this occurs, the more likely it starts as rain, and the later it occurs, the more likely it starts as rain to the south but a mix of rain and snow to the north. Regardless, as this final low in the series travels to our south, it’ll pull in additional cold and evolve into a snow event Sunday night into Monday, before it moves away. A general light to moderate snowfall is expected, with exact amounts depending on some details yet to be worked out, forecast-wise. But that process will be ongoing, which I can share in comments and update in more detail on tomorrow’s blog post. But for now, an early call is that 3 or more inches of snowfall can be expected across much of the WHW forecast area from that system. Later Monday and Tuesday will feature drier, cold weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
