The systems that impact our weather over the next few days are high pressure, which extends from near the Great Lakes into southeastern Canada, and low pressure, which stretches from off the coast of Florida to south of Nova Scotia. After abundant sunshine today, retrogression of upper level low pressure to our east will strengthen a northeasterly air flow, especially in coastal areas and across southeastern MA and RI, later today and tonight through Tuesday and into Wednesday. Cloudiness will return to eastern and southeastern portions of our region, most especially from the Seacoast of NH south southwestward through RI and much of eastern and southeastern MA starting this evening and going through Tuesday, into Wednesday. In addition, ocean-effect snow showers become more likely starting later this evening until sometime early or midday Wednesday, generally southeast of a Boston-Providence line. This region can see coatings of snow with up to an inch or two possible in some locations. Watch for occasionally to frequently slick untreated surfaces where these occur. The air flow backs to a more north and northwest direction later Wednesday when a clear-out process takes place. As the block weakens somewhat, systems will start to drift eastward, and high pressure will move over the region during Thursday with dry and tranquil weather, along with a warming trend after a chilly start to the day. High level clouds will appear during the afternoon in advance of an approaching trough and frontal system, which will send more cloudiness into the region during day on Friday, along with a continued milder trend, and a chance of some mixed precipitation and rain by Friday evening&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TODAY: Mostly sunny. Clouds arrive in southeastern MA around sunset. Highs 33-40. Wind N-NE 5-15 mph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TONIGHT: Lots of clouds southeastern MA with possible snow showers. Mostly clear to partly cloudy elsewhere. Lows 18-25, coldest inland. Wind NE 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TUESDAY \/ TUESDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. Probable coastal snow showers southeastern MA \/ Cape Cod with a coating to around an inch of accumulation likely, and locally up to 2 inches of accumulation  possible. Highs 31-38. Lows 21-28. Wind NE 10-20 MPH except 15-25 MPH Cape Cod, higher gusts possible in some coastal locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy to partly sunny. Snow showers ending in southeastern MA. Highs 32-39. Wind N 5-15 MPH except 15-25 MPH Cape Cod.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Clearing. Lows 15-22. Wind N-NW 5-15 MPH, diminishing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THURSDAY: Mostly sunny. Highs 39-46.

Chance of mix\/rain at night. Highs 42-49, coolest northwest of Boston in higher elevations. Wind SE 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 10-14)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A more west to east movement of weather systems during this period. Low pressure moves through the Great Lakes to southeastern Canada early in the period and another low pressure area follows that up to pass near or just south of the region early next week. A rain shower is possible February 10 otherwise the February 10-11 weekend looks mainly dry with above normal temperatures, warmest to start, cooler to finish. Rain\/mix\/snow potential exists February 12 into February 13.
