[Weather] [2023.02.21 AM] NWS Boston EM Briefing: Multiple Mixed Wintry Precip Events This Week

[BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account]

Good morning,

Two minor/nuisance precipitation events are expected this morning and again
this evening/overnight, with a mix of snow and rain.  Given temperatures
will be above freezing, roads will remain mainly wet, with little to no
impact.  However, across the high terrain of Massachusetts, including the
Worcester Hills, temperatures around freezing may yield snow accumulations
of 1-3 inches, mainly on non paved surfaces, except across the highest
elevations, especially on secondary roads and untreated surfaces.

1-3 inches is the total accumulation for both events, this morning and
again this evening and overnight.  Attached is a model simulated radar
loop, not expected to be exact, but to give you a feel for the overall
precipitation type, timing and evolution of precipitation this morning
through tonight. Also, attached is a map with potential snowfall for this
morning through tonight.

A more significant winter weather event is possible Wednesday night through
Thursday night, when a mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain is expected to
impact the region, with the greatest impact likely across northern
Massachusetts. Slipper travel may impact the Thursday morning commute. The
attached map (potential weather impacts) indicates the area with the
greatest impact likely across northern MA.
