[Weather] Accumulating Snow Expected Late Sunday Night Into Monday

[BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account]

Good afternoon everyone.

The threat for accumulating snow has increased late Sunday night into
Monday, but uncertainty remains in specific amounts.  We have included a
brief outline in this email.  Also, attached is our latest snowfall
forecast as well as approximate start and end times.

*WHAT: *
- Accumulating snow expected.

*WHERE: *
- All of southern New England.

*WHEN: *
- Snow is expected to overspread the region from southwest to northeast
between 9 pm and 3 am Monday morning.  The highest risk for a couple inches
of snow accumulation by daybreak Monday will be south of the MA turnpike
and especially near the south coast.
- The focus for accumulating snow will likely shift to central and eastern
MA by Monday afternoon.  Snow should wind down from west to east later
Monday afternoon into early evening.

*POTENTIAL IMPACTS:*
- Roads may be snow covered/slippery along with reduced visibility for the
Monday morning commute (although more limited given the Holiday). Highest
risk will be south of the MA turnpike and especially near the south coast.
- Greatest risk for snow and slippery roads during the Monday
afternoon/early evening commute will be across central and eastern MA,
where the ending time will be the latest.

*UNCERTAINTY:*
- Latest guidance suggests that 2 to 4 inches of snow appears reasonable
for much of the region.  These amounts may shift depending on the track of
the low pressure system.
- A track further south would limit accumulations to mainly an inch or
two.  If the low pressure system tracks further north, 3 to 7 inches of
snow would be possible.

Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.

Thank You
