QUICK CLIPPER
A “clipper” will come through into Thursday morning with a wintry mix. Near the coast you’ll see a mix of snow and rain, but sticking will be difficult with temperatures remaining above freezing. There will be a coating east of 95/128 into Boston, but roads will be generally wet in this area. Between 95 and 495 a coating - 1″ may create some slushy and slippery spots Thursday morning. The worst travel conditions will be found north and west of 495 where 1-3″ is expected with higher totals at elevations in northwestern MA into southwestern NH, particularly north of Rt 2 where we expect up to 5″ to accumulate.
Rain and snow showers will lighten up after 8 AM. The rest of the day will feature dry and blustery stretches with the chance for a few rain and snow squalls as colder air blows into the region. It will be very windy all day, especially on the Cape and Islands where a Wind Advisory will be in effect for gusts up to 50 mph.
COLD END
Brace yourself for cold and wind Friday. Wake-up wind chills in the singles and teens will only climb into the 20s in the afternoon. That cold will stay for the weekend.
