Sunday-Monday Snows: Final Call
Focus West
The Situation:
The forecast rationale from First Call on Friday remains largely unchanged, as the approaching system will be forced to track around a large low pressure that will stationed in the Canadian Maritimes, which will cause its eastward progression to halt and veer to the southeast as it enters Westrern New England.
This means that most of the accumulating snowfall will be confined to western New England.
Expected Storm Evolution:
Light snowfall should break out across the Berkshires around or shortly after midday today.
1pm Sunday:
And continue to spread east throughout the afternoon.
4pm Sunday:
The system will begin to feel the influence of the system over the Maritimes as it enters central potions of the region during the evening, and precipitation will begin to track more to the southeastward.
7pm Sunday:
This will greatly limit measurable snowfall east of about the Worcester hills, aside from some potential areas of ocean enhanced snow on the south shore.
1am Monday:
Snowfall should be winding down prior to the morning commute on Monday, so while it would be wise to leave some extra time, delays should be minor.
7am Monday:
Sunday-Monday FINAL CALL:
Sunday-Monday FIRST CALL: Issued Friday 12/9 @ 12pm
Then during this coming week all eyes will shift to a large storm that looks to potentially bring mixed bag of precipitation to the region.
