Nor'easter Incoming For Sunday/Monday?
Winter wasn't going to let us off the hook without one more backhand slap. Did you really think it would?
We've had a mild winter, a welcome change after all that Siberia stuff we had a year ago. Cape Cod may have gotten a bit more than her average for snowfall, but a winter where Cape Cod outsnows Boston is an anomaly.
We have a shot at some more snow this Monday, as a storm will develop offshore and see how close she can get to New England. She'll arrive during what may be our last blast of cold weather this weekend.
She could very well miss us. We're several days away. It is one of those two-track scenarios where Track #1 means that the storm goes out to sea, and Track #2 means that we get a rain/wind/snow event.
There's a full moon on Wednesday, and that could provide some Aftersurf if the storm throws waves at us from afar (she's expected to hit Canada as a blizzard), especially Tuesday.
We're too far away to say for sure what will happen, and even if we guess, we have no idea of how much snow will fall, where the rain/snow line would set up and a zillion other things.
I saw no snow totals forecast. I did see wind gust charts giving us gale-force winds. The storm would clip Massachusetts, and mainly be a SE Massachusetts event.
If it hits, the weather would go downhill Sunday night. The storm would be offshore on Monday, and be done with us by Monday night.
Again, it may miss us, most likely will... we just want you to keep an eye on the weather for the next few days. We'll keep you updated.
