Snow is Trending

Posted by Jeremy Reiner

Just another batch of some nuisance snow out there for you this morning as another tiny storm scooted through here overnight. Most towns picked up a coating-1" but sunshine will go to work this morning (after a 2 hour delay--like a school!!) melting that coating as most towns reach the upper 30s by afternoon. Mainly clear skies for tonight and into tomorrow morning. As we step through tomorrow clouds begin to arrive and those clouds are the leading edge of another storm....a bigger storm for Friday-Saturday.

Here's what we know about this Friday-Saturday storm:

*A drawn out storm---beginning as light snow by 8am Friday then becoming steadier & heavier by Friday afternoon and into Friday night. Snow won't taper off until 9-11am Saturday!

*A plowable snow is likely Friday-Saturday (Our *Special* map in the maps section details how much).

*Poor Travel is expected (ground and air) is expected across southern New England Friday afternoon through early Saturday morning.

*Minor-Moderate Coastal Flooding is likely Friday PM / Saturday AM

Here's What We're Still Working on with this storm:

*Storm Track---It's actually two storms that will join forces to become one storm----if they join forces too late (well southeast of New England) then it will be a storm with much less snowfall.

*Until we can pinpoint the storm track then the amount of snow is not locked in and that dreaded rain/snow line is also not known.

New information will be later this morning--this will further our confidence in this forecast--stay tuned!

Take the Good, Take the Bad

Rain, rain, rain...

...but for many today was a day of hurry up and wait. Sure there were showers, but not every minute was washed out. With the events unfolding tonight, that's about to change.

So....what would you like to hear first? The good news? Bad news? Let's start with the good news....

Come On Ride The Train

Heavy rain is on the move! All afternoon long it was stalled over Western Massachusetts and Connecticut. Heavy pulses of rain traveled over the same towns and cities - a process meteorologists call "training" - resulting in flash flooding in some counties to our west.

Unsettling

Another day where we have cool, ocean air battling warmer land air leading to a clash of air. That means clouds, drizzle, fog, humidity (frizzy hair) for much of the day. It's not a washout though. The highest chance of rain is this morning--until 9:30am and then later this afternoon (after 3pm). In between, you will see a lot of clouds but also some sunshine at times. Even limited sun will be able to shove temps well into the 70s. This warm & humid air is what will lead to another round of showers & t-storms later today. Some of the storms will be intense. Like the past two days the strongest storms will be in western New England. Only isolated showers/ thunderstorms are expected along the coastline later today. Sox game will have the risk of some showers but they should be able to play that game. Welcome back Tito!
