A mild air mass has invaded the region for the weekend as a warm front has lifted north of southern New England. A cold front will sweep through the region during Sunday with a few rain showers, but the chilly air behind it won’t really be felt until the late night hours.<\/p>\n
The first several days of next week look more typical of February, with near to below normal temperatures and a couple storm threats. The first, Monday, should pass largely south of the region as low pressure moves along the recently-passed frontal system. Snow should occur in parts of southeastern New England, but at the moment accumulations look minor and mainly south of Boston. A quiet but chilly day is expected Tuesday as high pressure dominates. The next storm system will be a direct hit on Wednesday, and this fast moving system will start as snow everywhere due to the cold air in place. The uncertainty is what happens as the storm progresses. It should warm aloft enough to turn the snow to sleet\/freezing rain in parts of southern New England. There is a significant chance that this system stays mostly snow or all snow north and west of Boston. It’s too early to talk about snow amounts. The end of the week is expected to be cold and quiet.<\/p>\n
