[Weather] [2024.01.26 Early PM] Update on Accumulating Snow Potential Late Sunday into Monday

[BOX Operations - NOAA Service Account]

Good afternoon,

With it being later on Friday, we wanted to send a short e-mail regarding
our latest expectations for a storm system that has the potential to bring
accumulating snows to Southern New England later Sunday into part of
Monday.

We expect this storm system to feature mainly snow for the interior and
higher terrain, while lower elevations such as the coastal plain may
feature a rain/snow mix before changing over to snow. Overall this event
looks roughly similar to those winter weather events we've had to this
point in the winter - where the higher snow accumulations are expected to
have a significant elevational component. In lower elevations, snow amounts
are more uncertain due to temperatures being more borderline.

We are still in the process of finalizing the forecast and details, but we
are considering Winter Storm Watches for the Berkshires, along with
portions of Worcester and Middlesex Counties where the best potential for
snow amounts of 6 or more inches exists. With that said, some adverse
impact to the Monday morning commute - even in lower elevations - looks
reasonable.

There are no attached graphics with this e-mail, but expect a follow-up
e-mail briefing out no later than 6 PM today.

Thank You!

Meteorologists: Andrew Loconto and Frank Nocera
