SUMMARY…
\nAn area of high pressure building to the north of southern New England will bring dry and cold weather today, but an approaching low pressure area from the Midwest will spread high cloudiness into the region, which will thicken up tonight. This low will move eastward, passing south of New England Monday, before turning northeastward toward the waters east of New England Monday night. This track is a good set-up for a snowstorm here across southern New England, though enough mild air may work in aloft at mid storm to cause a sleet\/freezing rain mix or change in far southern areas, mainly along the South Coast. After the storm pulls away, a shot of wind and cold will take over and last into Tuesday with dry weather. A weak low pressure area will approach from the Great Lakes Wednesday with cloudiness and some snow showers, along with an easing of the cold. The low will drag a cold front through the region which will then not get that far offshore Thursday and Friday. We’ll need to watch for the development of one or more waves of low pressure along this front which may threaten the region with unsettled weather late in the week. Another shot of dry and cold weather is likely on Saturday.<\/p>\n
