2/08 - 5:09 PM: Cold but not as windy tonight. Nice on Tuesday with temps finally, just barely, breaking the freezing mark. Winter Storm Watch issued for areas south of the MA Pike from Springfield to Boston then south to the CT coast. However, there are model differences with the track. We could have more or less snow, the warning area could expand or shrink. We are two days out, so stay tuned as we get closer.
I've posted The Weather Statistics for January 2010. Go see how much snow we've had. We've also updated the monthly stats.
SYNOPSIS...
DRY AND SEASONABLY COOL WEATHER WILL PREVAIL TUESDAY. A RAPIDLY
INTENSIFYING COASTAL STORM WILL LIKELY BRING ACCUMULATING SNOW AND
STRONG WINDS TO PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND...WITH AREAS ALONG
AND SOUTH OF THE MASS TURNPIKE MOST AT RISK FOR SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNTS.
HIGH PRESSURE THEN BRINGS DRY AND SEASONABLY COLD WEATHER THURSDAY
THROUGH THE WEEKEND.
2/08 - 6:35 AM: Partly sunny, cold and windy today. Sunny, and still windy on Tuesday. Then we cloud up Tuesday night ahead of a storm system that is expected to bring snow to the region later on Wednesday. Right now the track, which could change, brings snow Wednesday afternoon into southern New England. The current track supports the heaviest snow south of the MA Pike and a heavy snow for CT and Long Island. We'll have to keep an eye on this system and see if the track changes. After this, I only see cold dry weather into the weekend.

2/07 - 5:39 PM: Windy, cold weather prevails through Monday. Some slight moderation in temps by Tuesday with less wind. Low pressure storm system is expected to be off the coast by Tuesday tracking north. At the moment, the track is not clear. Looks like this one brings some snow into at least the southern portion of the region by Wednesday afternoon. The NWS has issued a Haz statement for coastal CT. Posted below. Stay tuned....

2/07 - 7:42 AM: Windy, cold weather through Monday before the winds ease off. Quiet weather continues into mid-week when another coastal storm forms. Looks like our friends to the south will get the brunt of this one as well, but it may well track close enough to bring us some snow as well. Stay tuned...

SYNOPSIS...
GENERALLY DRY AND COLDER THAN NORMAL WEATHER CONTINUES THROUGH
TUESDAY WITH CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE IN CONTROL. A NEW WINTER STORM
BREWING FROM THE CAROLINAS TO THE OHIO VALLEY LATE TUESDAY MAY
INTENSIFY RAPIDLY AND THREATEN SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND MID WEEK.
HOWEVER...ITS EXACT TRACK REMAINS UNCERTAIN AT THIS POINT. HIGH
PRESSURE THEN BRINGS DRIER AIR FOR THE END OF THE WEEK.
2/06 - 7:51 PM: Here is an interesting link, a time lapse snowfall set of pixs. Take a look.
2/06 - 5:14 PM: After some 30"+ of snow, the storm to our south is headed offshore and out into the open sea. The snow will end soon. They will have LOTS of cleaning up to do down there, with more snow possible by Tuesday. For us, windy and cold weather will stay with us through Tuesday, then we may have a storm to deal with. The long range charts don't agree, so confidence is low this far out. Very cold tonight with lows in the single numbers and wind chill readings below zero.

Regional Weather Discussion ...
t has been quite the quiet mid winter stretch we're on...go back to January 21st (19 days) and we've only had a trace of snow officially at the Concord Airport! Still with that dry string we have seen our "average" snowfall to this point in the season: 38.9". There is one system we have to watch until things go back/stay quiet.
Brisk northwest winds continue today 10-20 mph. Areas of light snow and scattered snow showers will continue in the White Mountains and Great North Woods under mostly cloudy skies. There could be a few inches of accumulation there before things wrap up later tonight. South of the mountains partly cloudy skies this morning...with some extra clouds this afternoon. Highs will be in the 20s for most, lower 30s from Manchester to the coast...but feeling colder than that with the breeze.
Tomorrow we are expecting brighter skies, a little less a breeze and a bit milder temperatures.
Another storm will be passing to our south later on Wednesday and Wednesday Night...this one looks like it will track closer to New Hampshire, but we will be on the northern fringes of the snow shield meaning southern NH stands the best "chance" of seeing an accumulating snow, while northern areas may see next to nothing. A wobble in the ultimate track will make for changes in possible snowfall...so stay tuned! The main time line would be from Wednesday afternoon through daybreak Thursday.
Beyond that, we looks to like we head back into the quite pattern for a while with temps remaining at or just below the norm.
