[Weather] [2021-03-18 PM] NWS Boston EM Briefing: Light Snow and Strong Winds Late Tonight/Friday Morning

[BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account]

Good afternoon,

Please see the attached one-page briefing and images which provide
information on rain changing to snow and strong winds later tonight into
Friday morning.

We have not made significant changes since the last briefing with all
headlines remaining the same. Regarding strong winds, we are still
expecting a period of 40 to 50 mph gusts over the Cape and Islands, except
for 45 to 55 mph gusts possible over Nantucket.

Regarding snowfall, the amounts have been reduced slightly, especially over
Western MA and the CT River valley. Overall, we are still expecting totals
of 1-2 inches overnight, with isolated 3 inches possible. The main impact
from the snow is the possibility of briefly snow covered roads, especially
on secondary roadways during the heavier snowfall rates.

Thanks,
Rodney Chai and Bill Babcock
