Winter’s grip continues, with another round of upslope snow for the mountains and scattered snow showers possible in Southern New England Thursday morning. A broader look at the forecast also shows signs of a weekend storm passing south of New England, though it may bring some light snow Friday night into Saturday.
Thursday morning kicks off with cold temperatures and active wind gusts up to 40 mph, making it feel even chillier. Scattered snow showers early in the day could create a dusting in parts of Eastern Massachusetts, so be mindful of slick spots during your commute. In the mountains, upslope snow continues, adding 2–4 inches in the Northern Greens, Whites, and far Northern Maine by the end of the day.
Friday brings relief from the relentless winds, with a calmer breeze and temperatures rebounding slightly into the 20s and 30s. As we head into the weekend, a developing storm in the southern U.S. taps Gulf moisture, creating a significant snowstorm in the Southern Plains. For New England, the storm’s track keeps the bulk of moisture to the south, though light snow showers are possible Friday night into Saturday.
Sunday turns brighter and seasonable, with highs in the 30s for Southern New England and 20s in the far north. Stay tuned to 1DegreeOutside for updates on light weekend snow.
