Discussion
Low pressure will develop today just off the New Jersey coastline and then rapidly intensify as it moves northeastward and it will ultimately become a major snow producer for interior sections of New England. In fact, more than a foot of snow is possible from this developing storm system later today and tonight across interior sections of Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont. Around here, any early morning snow or wintry mix will give way to plain rain as the storm pulls to the northeast along the coastline. By early tomorrow, as the storm bombs out near Maine’s coastline, our winds will pick up noticeably out of the northwest and temperatures will generally be held in the 30’s for highs as we close out the work week. In addition to the cold and wind, flurries are likely at times on Friday and there can be a heavier snow shower that makes it across the mountains and into the I-95 corridor.
