DAYS 1-5 (DECEMBER 29 \u2013 JANUARY 2)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As you start your day today, the earlier it is the higher chance you encounter icy surfaces from the Boston area west and north, and less likely you do along the immediate coast heading southward from Boston to Cape Cod to coastal RI. It’s very important to note that in some areas a temperature anywhere from 33 to as high as the lower 40s might initially make you think there’s no ice on the ground, but due to recent very cold weather, the surface temperatures can remain at or below freezing for a while when the adjacent air has warmed above freezing. This means surfaces in those areas can still be icy for a while! Test all surfaces you’re about to walk on whenever possible! The “melt-line” will progress unevenly north and northwest during the morning as a warm front lifts through the region, while occasional rainfall continues, more in liquid than freezing form but with less coverage for a while before it increases again with the approach and passage of a cold front, trailing strong low pressure passing well to our north in southeastern Canada. Monday night, it dries out and turns cold and windy, with many surfaces able to dry off, but ones that do not and are untreated will become icy. We then will be in a cold pattern for the last couple days of December 2025 and the first couple days of January 2026 as a broad low pressure trough sits over our region. Strongest wind will occur on Tuesday with some gusts in the 40 to 60 MPH range possible, strongest in higher elevation and exposed coastal areas. A disturbance’s timing and resultant snow shower chance has trended a little faster from the afternoon of January 1 to more of a morning event. Still may need to tweak this timing but this is the current expectation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TODAY: Cloudy including areas of fog through mid afternoon with surface ice gradually melting to the north and west, periodic rain northern MA and southern NH, a few rain showers to the south initially, then widespread rain showers west to east early to mid afternoon. Clouds start to break from west to east at end of day. Highs 35-42 in southeastern NH and north central MA and 43-50 elsewhere. Wind SE to S increasing to 10-20 MPH with higher gusts, shifting to W from west to east later in the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DAYS 6-10 (JANUARY 3-7)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dry, cold start to the period. Watching the January 5-7 time frame for potential unsettled weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
DAYS 11-15 (JANUARY 8-12)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Drier weather returns, then another system with a precipitation threat again later in the period, based on current trends. Temperatures variable, but averaging near normal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
