SUMMARY…
\nA March cold blast arrived Tuesday afternoon as a strong cold front moved rapidly through the region, triggering showers of rain, small hail, and snow, with even some thunder reported in a few locations. Of even more significance were very strong wind gusts, up to 60 MPH in some areas causing damage and power outages. Winds have continued to have strong gusts since, and this will continue through Wednesday, with only a slow diminishing of wind Wednesday night through Thursday as high pressure approaches. This high will then slide just south and east of the region by Friday as a low pressure system approaches from the southwest. It looks like the bulk of this system will pass just south of southern New England, but will bring at least cloudiness and possibly some rain and snow to at least southern MA southward later Friday and Friday night. As this system exits, another low will track northwest of New England and Saturday will turn out milder with a southwesterly flow developing, but rain showers may arrive later Saturday and end as snow showers early Sunday as yet another cold blast arrives and lasts into the start of next week.<\/p>\n
