Good morning everyone, Attached is the updated briefing regarding the potential for rain changing to a wintry mix of sleet and snow and a possible flash freeze Friday morning. *What Has Changed:* - Winter Storm Watch issued for Massachusetts near and north of the Mass Pike (I-90). - Increasing confidence on higher snow/sleet totals in the Watch area, especially along and north of Route 2. - Watch was also issued for the possibility of significant travel impacts since the timing of the changeover and flash freeze should coincide with the morning commute. - Travel impacts are possible outside of the Watch area but our confidence is lower. Note that the snowfall forecast (also attached) includes snow and sleet accumulations. It's possible some locations experience sleet for a few hours before a change to snow.
