FRIDAY— WINDY is what most areas will experience as high pressure enters the region. This will cause snow to blow around, may pop a snow squall or two, and bring the risk of snow showers for the interior through early afternoon. Watch out for slick spots in open areas. Gusts could hit 50+ for the taller hills, and wind holds on the slopes are likely. A can or two could be in the roadways in urban areas where trash pick-up happens. FRIDAY NIGHT--The wind slowly subsides but will likely be noticeable for those out and about overnight and into early Saturday morning. While temperatures stay above zero, the windchill drives the ambient temperature below zero for interior areas, with single digits above for many along the coast. SATURDAY - Breezy conditions for the north and east will start off, with diminishing wind for the south and west. The cooling fan shuts off around midday as high pressure settles in. Expect a partly sunny sky with cooler-than-normal temperatures. SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY – The next storm tracks just south of benchmark. Given the flat nature of the steering level, this is yet another marginal snowfall event for the south, with lesser amounts to the north. There is about an 8 to 12-hour window for snowfall. At this point, it is expected to start around Midnight Sunday and end by Noon. Coastal areas may pick up a breeze as the storm heads to the east/northeast and could blow snow around in the afternoon. Dry air is the enemy of snowfall for the north and mountains where it could bust on the low end. York County will likely see the higher-end totals, whereas those of us here have certainly had our fix as of late. Important to note for those traveling south that Winter Storm Warnings have been posted for Southern New England. For those flying in and out of Logan, you will want to check your flight status. THE NEXT ONE comes Wednesday night into Thursday. The storm train of February rolls on. Stay tuned!
