DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 4-8)
\nA windy Wednesday behind departing but intensifying low pressure and ahead of advancing high pressure. That high moves in with a more tranquil day Thursday. Two low pressure areas (from the Mid Atlantic & Great Lakes) phase off the New England Coast late Friday into Saturday but far enough out that we just get a minor event that starts as rain and ends as a period of snow or snow showers, followed by a mainly dry first full weekend of March as high pressure moves back in, with windiest weather between the departing low and approaching high on Saturday and a little less wind by Sunday but still a breeze as high pressure sinks to the southwest and south of New England.
\nTODAY: Sun and passing clouds. Highs 51-58. Wind W 15-25 MPH, gusts 35-45 MPH, with a few isolated higher gusts possible.
\nTONIGHT: Clear. Lows 31-38. Wind W diminishing to 5-15 MPH.
\nTHURSDAY: Sunny. Highs 45-52. Wind W 5-15 MPH, diminishing further.

\nFRIDAY NIGHT: Cloudy. Rain changing to snow or snow showers with minor snow accumulation possible. Lows 28-35. Wind N 5-15 MPH.

DAYS 6-10 (MARCH 9-13)
\nMilder March 9 with late-day rain showers from a cold front. Turning cooler March 10 with early rain showers then dry weather returning. Watching the March 11-13 period for the potential for a low pressure system impacting the region with a variety of precipitation.<\/p>\n
DAYS 11-15 (MARCH 14-18)
\nLow confidence but tendency may be for high pressure to north and low pressure to south which leaves this area vulnerable to unsettled weather.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
