Good morning, Attached is a one pager briefing for a potential snow event late Thursday into Friday. Winter weather advisories continue this morning for areas west of I-95. Freezing rain will result in hazardous travel. Ice accumulations will be a glaze to one tenth of an inch, except two to four tenths of an inch over higher elevations in the Berkshires and northern Worcester Hills.

by BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account 15 Feb '21

15 Feb '21

Good afternoon/evening, Here is the latest briefing for the ice accretion event for tonight into Tuesday morning. Winter Weather Advisories remain in effect for much of southern New England away from the southeast coast. The main impacts will be 1) slippery untreated roads and 2) the possibility of ice buildup causing a few tree limbs to fall and/or some power disruptions -- in the higher terrain areas of the east slopes of the Berkshires, Worcester County, and northwest Middlesex County. Another winter storm is expected Thursday into Friday. Precipitation is expected to begin as snow on Thursday for all southern New England before transitioning to ice and rain Thursday night into Friday. The Thursday evening commute could be adversely impacted. At this time, it is too early for specific snow and ice accumulations. -- Glenn Field, NWS Boston/Norton MA If you have any questions or would like more information, don't hesitate to contact us via this email address, on NWSChat <https://nwschat.weather.gov/>, or at the following: National Weather Service Boston/Norton, MA 46 Commerce Way Norton, MA 02766 508.622.3280 Website <http://www.weather.gov/boston> | Facebook <http://www.facebook.com/NWSBoston> | Twitter <http://www.twitter.com/NWSBoston>

by BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account 13 Feb '21

Good afternoon, Please find attached the latest one-pager briefing on the potential light wintry mix tonight into early Sunday. We have issued a Winter Weather Advisory for areas along the South Coast and the Cape and Islands overnight for total snow accumulations of up to one inch and ice accumulations of a light glaze. We have also attached a second one-pager briefing for a possible light wintry mix on Monday followed by a more potent winter storm late Monday into Tuesday that could bring significant ice accretions to much of the area. There remains a great deal of uncertainty with the precipitation types and transition timing but the setup is favorable for an ice storm across Southern New England. We have attached a preliminary ice accretion forecast map to give you an idea of the potential ice accretion amounts. This will be subject to changes as we get closer to the event. The next briefing will be no later than 5 AM on Sunday, February 14. Thank you.
