These low clouds may deposit a few flurries in spots this afternoon
So far this winter most of our snow has been light or has occurred overnight, but this next round of snow will likely be our most substantial plowable snowfall we have seen since the October Nor'easter. Still, this will be no Nor'easter. Not even close.
Big blue high pressure sitting over us is providing a calmer day with less of a wind chill factor. This high will be pulling off the coast and begin to wrap in warmer SW during the afternoon.

But this will feel a whole lot better than yesterday! High clouds will continue to increase making for filtered sunshine this afternoon
The rest of us are seeing a brilliant, blustery and very cold day with the heart of the Arctic air settling over us today. Highs will only be able to climb into the teens today.

Cool filtered sunshine this morning with increasing high altitude clouds will give way to mostly cloudy skies this afternoon and warming temperatures into the 40's.

Clouds will thicken in advance of the rain this afternoon with showers arriving in western New England around sunset. Showers will be reaching the coast between 6-8 PM...
Breezy NW winds will develop today as this low departs with cooler drier air on the move behind a cold front pushing off the coast. Winds will gust to 20 to 30 mph adding a chill to the air. Temps in the 30's this AM south will climb only into the Lwr 40's by the afternoon because of the cold air advection from Canada. Cooler 20's across the north will keep temps in the 30's.
