Hi everyone, We want to give you an update regarding the upcoming winter storm. Our greatest concern is following the changeover from rain, there is increasing potential for prolific snowfall rates within a narrow band somewhere in Massachusetts mid to late afternoon on Saturday. While it will be well above freezing to begin with, temperatures will rapidly cool and lead to 1-3 inches/hr of snowfall rate. Given that the snow will be heavy and wet in nature, this could have significant effects on travel and lead to widespread power outages wherever the band sets up. While we have high confidence in this narrow band with prolific snowfall rates setting up, the exact location remains to be fine tuned. Thank you.
