THE LATEST NOAA NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE RADARS ARE SHOWING AREAS
OF MOSTLY LIGHT TO MODERATE AREAS OF SNOW FROM THE NORTHERN PLAINS
EASTWARD THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES INTO NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND.
FARTHER SOUTH IN NEW ENGLAND AND CLOSER TO THE COAST...THE
PRECIPITATION IS FALLING AS A MIXTURE OF SNOW...SLEET AND FREEZING
RAIN. AREAS OF LIGHT TO MODERATE RAIN...WITH POCKETS OF HEAVY RAIN
WERE OBSERVED TO BE EXITING NEW ENGLAND FROM WEST TO EAST.
THE SURFACE LOW OVER WISCONSIN WILL CONTINUE A SLOW EAST
NORTHEASTWARD PROGRESSION THROUGH THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES REGION.
LIGHT TO MODERATE SNOW COMBINED WITH GUSTY WINDS WILL CREATE
BLIZZARD CONDITIONS NEAR THIS AREA OF LOW PRESSURE. THE SECOND
AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER NEW ENGLAND IS FORECAST TO MOVE
NORTHEASTWARD ALONG THE COAST...BRINGING THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY
RAIN TO PARTS OF COASTAL NEW ENGLAND AND HEAVY SNOW TO PORTIONS OF
NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND. SNOW ACCUMULATIONS WILL LIKELY EXCEED 6
INCHES OVER NORTHERN MAINE. ADDITIONAL FREEZING RAIN
ACCUMULATIONS ARE NOT EXPECTED TO BE SIGNIFICANT ACROSS NEW
ENGLAND.
THE NEXT STORM SUMMARY WILL BE ISSUED BY THE HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL
PREDICTION CENTER AT 900 PM CST. PLEASE REFER TO YOUR LOCAL
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORECAST OFFICE FOR ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION ON THIS EVENT.
