A mild start greets us this Wednesday morning with temps running close to 40 degrees. Mostly cloudy skies prevail this morning with a few spotty light showers or sprinkles possible. The clouds thin for breaks of sunshine midday into the afternoon as the residual snow left on the ground melts with temps running close to 50 degrees.
For some, we’ll add snow back to the ground late Thursday afternoon-Friday, while others see mainly a rain event. The highest risk for several inches of snow/sleet favors near and north of Route 2, while it’ll likely be mainly a rain event near and south of the Mass Pike. I’d expect slick travel Thursday night and Friday across northern Mass and NH and snow and sleet adds up. From Boston, out through MetroWest, the best chance of the coating -1″ of snow comes Friday, once the rain changes back to snow showers. Snow showers taper off by Friday evening and the weekend looks mainly dry through Sunday.
Sunday night, into Monday, the next storm moves in with some snow/mix northwest of 495 and mainly rain inside it. Rain and snow tapers off early Monday morning.
