Between these systems a north to northeast air flow will remain established over our region through Wednesday. A canopy of clouds will be generally located from the I-95 region eastward, with thickest and most persistent cloud cover over southeastern MA through Wednesday. It is here, mainly coastal Plymouth County to  Cape Cod, where occasional to at times more persistent ocean-effect snow showers can occur, with some minor accumulations possible. This will not be a high-impact event. Weather systems start to move eastward during midweek, and the high pressure ridge will find its way into and across our region during Thursday and Friday with fair weather and moderating temperatures. While we&#8217;ll have lost the cloud deck from the ocean, we&#8217;ll start to see some high and mid level clouds moving in at times from the west on Thursday and even more so on Friday. By Friday night, a warm front moving into the region can generate some light precipitation, mainly rain though the possibility of some mixed precipitation across higher elevations of central MA and southwestern NH. This does not look like a widespread event or anything more than just light intensity. It leads a mild air mass into the region to start the weekend on Saturday, with temperatures rising to well over the seasonal average for the date. It should be a mainly dry day, but I can&#8217;t rule out a passing rain shower or two from a weak trough of low pressure passing by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THROUGH WEDNESDAY: Lots of clouds I-95 eastward, fewer clouds to the west. Occasional snow showers Plymouth County MA to Cape Cod \/ Islands. Minor accumulations possible. Highs 32-39. Lows 21-28. Wind NE 10-20 MPH except 15-25 MPH Cape Cod with a few higher gusts possible.<\/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. Wind variable under 10 MPH becoming SW up to 10 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>THURSDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Lows 32-39. Wind S 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FRIDAY: Partly to mostly cloudy. Highs 42-49, coolest northwest of Boston in higher elevations. Wind SE 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FRIDAY NIGHT: Mostly cloudy. A period of light rain possible, with some mix of rain\/sleet\/snow possible higher elevations well west and north of Boston. Lows 32-39. Wind SE-S 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SATURDAY: Partly sunny. A passing rain shower or two possible. Highs 51-58. Wind S-SW 5-15 MPH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DAYS 6-10 (FEBRUARY 11-15)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A cold front swings through the region as a trough departs to the east with mild air ahead of it, a potential rain shower, and a modest cool down following later on February 11 to finish off the weekend. Low pressure threatens a more widespread precipitation event in the February 12-13 time frame, but timing and low pressure track will help determine the details. These can be brought into better focus during the next several days. Fair and seasonably chilly weather follows that storm threat for the middle of next week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DAYS 11-15 (FEBRUARY 16-20)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another potential storm system can impact the region early to mid period.
