Good afternoon,
We wanted to give you a heads up about the potential for some wintry weather on Tuesday. This system is not expected to bring significant snow amounts, but icing is a concern. Additionally, being that it could be the first real accumulating system of the winter, we wanted to bring it to your attention.
Rain will likely transition to a period of snow from west to east beginning Tuesday morning. Timing of this transition to snow would be around early morning for western MA/CT, reaching eastern MA by mid afternoon.
Snow amounts are expected to be light, generally a coating to an inch of snow is likely. One concern for interior Massachusetts would be the potential for some icing/freezing rain during the early morning hours; a low probability but a concern we will be evaluating going forward. Stay tuned for further information.
