A good weekend, but quite cold, will be followed by a nor’easter of several days.
Low temperatures will remain at one digit again this morning in southeastern New England, making it the first consecutive days of a single digit from January 30 and January 31, 2019.
But at least the wind is relaxing, as we warm up to 20 degrees south of New England this afternoon.
There is a lot of sun, except in the northern mountains, where we have clouds and showers, and outside Cape Cod also with clouds and showers.
High pressure moves over us tonight, causing a large, beautiful, bright moon, and the planets and stars should be shining with a mass of dry, clean air.
Again, you want to put on layers if you are going for a walk outdoors, with low temperatures in the south digits and very low from zero in the north for Sunday morning.
Sunday looks great, though, with lots of sun and gentle wind. High temperatures will reach teenagers in the north and 20-year-olds in the south with rising clouds in the afternoon.
The system of storms that dropped 8 feet of snow on Mammoth Mountain in California is traversing the nation and will be at our door Monday morning.
At that time, it will snow heavily from Philadelphia to New York City, with a wall of moderate to heavy snow that will open from south to north in southern New England.
We probably received a few inches of snow for the first few hours, before changing to rain along the coast, near Cape Cod.
For most of central and southern New England, it looks like a band of eight or ten hours of heavy snow Monday through early Tuesday, so it’s likely to snow 8 to 10 inches, for an approximate estimate. early.
Low pressure will move from Pennsylvania and redevelop south of Long Island and slowly crawl to near Nantucket.
A higher level minimum will stop at the top with several low pressure surface systems coming out from south to north across the Gulf of Maine. This means heavy snow bands, with rain on the coast on Tuesday and into the evening.
The wind from the east and northeast coasts will pass half a mile per hour on Monday night and the first Tuesday. There is a possibility of a milder wind from south Boston to Cape Cod on Tuesday, with temperatures reaching close to 40 degrees and snow shifting to drizzle.
Otherwise, further inland, snow bands will continue on Tuesday, with the most intense buildup at this time in the mountains of Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine.
There may be a hole in the middle of precipitation, with smaller amounts in southern Vermont, western Massachusetts, and western New Hampshire. But in much of New England we can end up with a 10-20 inch snowfall, where all the snow stays.
The wind will return from the north on Tuesday night, with perhaps icy conditions returning to the south and east coastline. Wednesday is likely to be a gray, cold day before a little sunny Thursday. Thursday night, a warm front will bring a mix of rain and snow followed by a major warm-up over the weekend with possible heavy showers as we head into next weekend.
It is a 10 day forecast of very busy first alert.
