Our next storm will be impacting the region Friday with rain at the coast and snow inland. The mountains will pick up a few inches of wet snow. Rain will dominate at the coast. A late weekend storm will pass far out to sea and will not impact the region.
A storm will develop along a cold front and will move NE through the day. Amounts will be light other than far east Washington county where up to 1′ of snow could fall.
Indy will be hosting the suberbowl this weekend with no weather worries. Not that that will matter much since the game will be played inside the dome. What to expect inside the dome; 68 and dry.
No need to go into detail for any of the days in the 7-day outlook. The forecast simply is sun with a few clouds highs ranging from 29-37 in southern ME and take off a few degrees and you get the temps for the north and mountains. Add a few degrees to get southern NE temps. Mid atlantic: rainy for Superbowl sunday with temps generally in the 40s through the 7-day.
Snow will be falling today in NE as a warm front pushes north. The warm front will bring warm air and this will cause a mix at the coast and some light rain tomorrow. After that the forecast really becomes extremely unclear. Models like the idea of a coastal storm developing Friday or Saturday with an extremely large trough digging down through the eastern third of the country. Models have been backing off on that solution however there is a possibility to see a storm develop Monday.
NE will see some snow in the next few days. Todays snow will be focused in ME and NH however tomorrow will bring snow to NEs entirety. This will bring 2-4″ in ME and NH. MA will be in the 1-3″ range with RI and CT only seeing a dusting to 1″. More possible storms in the long range but due to huge model uncertainty, it is far to early to go into details.
Warm air will continue to push northward today and will have everyone over to rain with the exception of the north and mountains where cold air and snow will hang on for the remainder of the day. Even in the mountains, a change to freezing rain is expected dropping around .15-.3″ of ice. The whole storm clears out late this evening leaving a goregoues weekend for all.
Models have been tracking a little bit farther west and that means rain for the coast as well as some freezing rain and snow at the very beginning. Snow/mix/freezing rain will all change over to rain around daybreak. Inland will see snoe changing to mix/freezing rain around midday and Te mountains will see mostly snow with occaionial sleet mixing in. Amounts will go as following: Southern coast as well as the immediate middcoast and southern interior-1-2″ inland and midcoast and foothills-3-6″ Mountains and North 4-8″.
Now we watch our next storm that is currently in Texas will move up the coast today and tomorrow. It will reach the Mid Atlantic states Thursday into Thursday night. NE will get the brunt of this storm friday with a strong coastal front like many storms this season. This will set up a definite rain/snow line and we will see where this goes.
Today a cold front moved through the area bringing in cooler temps for the week topping out wednesday in the mid to lower 30s for southern NH and southern ME 30s south into CT and 40s South to Philadelphia. 50s into VA and MD. Thursday will be similar and partly cloudy like wednesday. Friday will feature precipitation in northern NE but is a little early to go into details.
