New England faces a weekend of snow followed by a sharp plunge in temperatures, with single digits expected in Boston.
New England residents can anticipate several opportunities for snowfall leading up to the weekend, followed by a significant drop in temperatures, with Boston experiencing single-digit lows. A slight breeze will pick up tonight as a gusty southwest wind prevails along the coast, coinciding with the passage of a clipper system.
This system will bring a quick-moving chance for flurries or snow showers, resulting in light accumulations overnight and potentially hazardous slick conditions on roads for Friday morning commuters.Scattered coatings to 1 inch of snow are likely across Cape Cod and the Islands through Friday morning. Temperatures will dip to the teens and 20s, increasing the risk of icy conditions. Thankfully, milder air will return for Friday, with seasonable temperatures reaching the mid-30s. Sunny skies will melt away any overnight snow and icy patches, and ice-covered bodies of water will also thaw somewhat, making thin ice potentially dangerous in southern New England.Saturday will see temperatures rise into the 40s as rain showers begin to move in by the late evening. Sunday will commence with colder and dry conditions, but as nighttime approaches, an offshore low-pressure system tracking south of New England will interact with colder air in place following a cold front passage on Saturday. This interaction is expected to bring a few inches of snow across southeastern New England. While the precise track and timing are still uncertain, the indications for snow from Sunday night into early Monday remain strong.Following this snowfall event, a significant influx of arctic air is anticipated, bringing some of the coldest temperatures in two years. Highs are projected to reach the teens for Tuesday and Wednesday, with single-digit temperatures in northern New England
