[2025.02.15 PM] NWS Boston EM Briefing: Tonight Into Sunday
Good afternoon everyone Here is the updated briefing on the Winter Storm that will impact the region tonight and Sunday. We generally expect 3-7" of snow for most of southern New England. We did upgrade the Berkshires, Worcester Hills and northern Massachusetts to Winter Storm Warnings. This is for a combination of snow accumulations followed by freezing rain with a period of sleet in between. The greatest concern is for the Worcester Hills and Berkshires...where ice accretion between 0.15" and 0.35" followed by strong winds Sunday night and Monday will exacerbate the power outage risk. A High Wind Watch remains posted for all of southern New England Sunday night and Monday. Westerly wind gusts of 45-65 mph are expected. Power outages possible. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns! Thank You! Meteorologists: Hayden Frank, Kyle Pederson, Candice Hrencecin, Matt Belk, and Emily McMinn. If you have any questions or would like more information, please don't hesitate to contact us.
