DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 3-7)
\nAn initial disturbance passing south of New England this morning and early afternoon will bring spotty light drizzle\/rain, some of which may freeze on surfaces northwest of I-495 this morning. During this time, a stronger low pressure area will be moving rapidly northeastward through the Mid Atlantic States and will send areas of moderate to heavy rain through southern New England late this afternoon and early tonight. This low will move beyond the region overnight and early Wednesday but it will remain fairly mild until a cold front arrives later in the day Wednesday with one or two rounds of passing showers of rain and snow, rain favoring most areas with any initial shower and snow more possible in areas north and west of Boston if there is a second area as the colder air comes in. Thursday will be a fair but colder day. A wave of low pressure will pass south of the region Friday but may be close enough to bring some light snow to parts of the region, especially southern and eastern MA, CT, and RI. Fair weather should return Saturday behind this system.
\nTODAY: Overcast. Areas of fog. Scattered light rain\/drizzle morning and early afternoon, some freezing on surfaces far northwest of Boston this morning, then more widespread rain which may be heavy at times late-day.

\nTONIGHT: Cloudy. Rain, heavy at times early, tapering off to spotty light rain and drizzle after. Patchy fog. Temperatures generally steady. Wind variable 5-15 MPH, higher gusts.
\nWEDNESDAY: Mostly cloudy with isolated rain showers morning. Partly sunny afternoon. Risk of rain showers mainly west and north of Boston late in the day. Highs 46-54. Wind W 5-15 MPH increasing to 10-20 MPH with higher gusts late in the day.
\nWEDNESDAY NIGHT: Partly cloudy. Scattered rain\/snow showers early. Lows 27-35. Wind W 10-20 MPH with higher gusts.
