8:05AM Saturday update<\/p>\n
Winter will take an intermission for the weekend, which will be quite nice for this time of year. A relatively mild airmass will dominate, with mostly dry weather into Sunday. Later Sunday, a strong cold front will move into the region from the west, with a few rain showers at first, then a few snow showers and possibly a period of snow at night. This will signal a return to a much colder pattern next week as the Polar Vortex takes up residence over eastern Canada. Watch for a potential snow threat around the middle of next week as low pressure tries to get going offshore and may be close enough to spread snow into southeastern New England. Behind that will arrive the coldest air of the upcoming cold stretch.<\/p>\n
