Kind of chilly out right now huh?  Arctic air from Canada has invaded our region, but luckily it will be on it’s way out. One more very cold night ahead before temperatures moderate a bit.

Tomorrow night we have a chance of some snow flurries. A system is diving down out of the Great Lakes and will dive south of the region where it will strengthen rapidly off the East Coast.  Unfortunately for us, this storm will be too far to our South to give us any substantial snowfall. Most locations should expect light snow resulting in a coating to an inch at most.  Extreme Southern regions like the Cape and Islands can expect an inch or two.

The system will be gone by Saturday morning meaning that the weekend should be fairly nice; except for the afternoon highs in the 20s part.  Early next week will feature warmer temperature for most; Northern New England will still be frigid, but Southern New England will see temperatures return to near or slightly above average (around 40).

Near the end of the forecast period; Wednesday and Thursday appear to be unsettled as a system might track to our west and bring us some rainy weather.  But as the front passes, the rain might possibly change over and end as some snow.  But that is a long ways off and details are likely to change.
