DAYS 1-5 (JANUARY 14-18)
\nAn air mass of arctic origin has arrived, but this air mass is not as brutally cold as the one that was over the region one week ago. Nevertheless, it will be running colder than average for the next several days. The orientation of high pressure will cause a north wind with just enough moisture for a few snow showers around Cape Ann and Cape Cod today and then a northeast wind and a little more moisture for a better risk of ocean-effect snow showers in eastern MA and nearby coastal NH and parts of RI during MLK Jr Day Monday, which may result in some minor snow accumulation mainly on the South Shore of MA. Next, a low pressure area moving through the Great Lakes toward New England will redevelop just south of New England late Tuesday into Wednesday and will bring the threat of a light to moderate snowfall to the area. It’s rather early to know exact details but the track of that system would be more likely to bring the most snowfall to southeastern MA and RI. It appears it would move along quickly enough to allow fair weather to return by Thursday. Forecast details…
