[Weather] NWS Boston EM Briefing: Potential Impactful Winter Storm Sunday

Good afternoon,

Attached is a one page briefing on the potential winter storm for Sunday.
Given this is a day 5 forecast there are still many unknowns, but it has
the potential to be a high impact storm if it tracks close enough to New
England. It could also pass far enough offshore to spare southern New
England from significant impacts. We included the probability of moderate
impacts from the Probabilistic Winter Storm Severity Index (WSSI).

We also wanted to highlight the very cold conditions for the rest of the
week. We are expecting below zero wind chills during the late night and
early morning hours through the rest of the week. In fact, a reinforcing
shot of arctic air will likely bring dangerously cold wind chills
Thursday night into Friday night which may require cold weather headlines.

Thanks.
Kevin Cadima and Caitlyn Mensch
