Discussion
A cold front crossed the region yesterday and noticeably colder air has pushed into the region. Another cold front will slide into the I-95 corridor by early tomorrow and this could set the stage for a few hours of a wintry mix. Low pressure will form along the cold front on Thursday, intensify rapidly, and ultimately become a major snow producer for much of interior New England where a foot or more could fall in portions of Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont. A wintry mix could break out around here in the wee hours of the morning across the northern and western suburbs before a changeover takes place to plain rain. Following the departure of the storm, winds will pick up out of the northwest on Friday, it’ll turn even colder and flurries are possible - perhaps even a heavier snow shower.
