.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM WEDNESDAY/...
A VERY COMPLICATED WINTER STORM WILL IMPACT SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND
TONIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. EXPECTING SNOW TO START...THEN QUICKLY
TRANSITIONING TO A MIX OF FREEZING RAIN AND SLEET ACROSS MOST OF OUR
REGION.

CONFIDENCE IS NOT VERY HIGH WE WILL TRULY MEET WINTER STORM WARNING
CRITERIA...WHICH IS 6 INCHES OF SNOW OR 1/2 INCH OF ICE IN 12 HRS
ACROSS MA...CT AND RI. DO THINK THE COMBINATION OF MULTIPLE
PRECIPITATION TYPES WITH ONE QUARTER TO ONE THIRD OF AN INCH OF ICE
WILL PRESENT ENOUGH OF A HAZARD TO WARRANT A WARNING FOR CERTAIN
PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND. THE WEDNESDAY MORNING COMMUTE IS
LOOKING TO BE QUITE MESSY.

ACROSS SOUTHERN NH...CONFIDENCE IS GROWING THAT A WARNING WILL BE
ISSUED LATER TODAY. CRITERIA IS A BIT HIGHER HERE...7 INCHES OF SNOW
IN 12 HRS...AND BASED ON REGIONAL COLLABORATION...WOULD LIKE TO GIVE
NEXT SHIFT A CHANCE TO EVALUATE FURTHER.

USED A BLEND OF THE MOS AND RAW MODEL 2 METER TEMPERATURES.

WITH SUCH STRONG WARM AIR ADVECTION...THINKING THERE WILL BE A STRONG
LOW LEVEL INVERSION TONIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. STRONG 925 MB WINDS
BETWEEN 60-70 KT FORECAST BY JUST ABOUT ALL MODELS...JUST ABOVE THIS
INVERSION. THIS WILL NEED TO BE WATCHED CAREFULLY. MAY NEED A HIGH
WIND WATCH...MAINLY FOR CAPE COD AND THE ISLANDS. BUT SINCE THIS IS A
ESSENTIALLY A THIRD PERIOD EVENT...WANTED TO KEEP THINGS AS SIMPLE AS
POSSIBLE FOR THE MOMENT.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
WEDNESDAY NIGHT...AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH APPROACHES FROM THE GREAT
LAKES WHILE A SURFACE LOW MOVES QUICKLY UP INTO CANADIAN MARITIMES.
WINTRY MIX OF PRECIPITATION WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE NIGHT.  PTYPE
SHOULD CHANGE OVER TO SNOW FOR MOST OF THE AREA BY MIDNIGHT.  LOW
TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN THE 20S TO LOWER 30S.

THURSDAY...HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND BEHIND AN
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH THAT MOVES THROUGH THE AREA.  THERE MAY BE A FEW
LINGERING SNOW SHOWERS DURING THE DAY.  HIGHS WILL BE IN THE 30S.
SKIES CLEAR GRADUALLY OVERNIGHT ALLOWING LOW TEMPERATURES TO DROP
INTO THE TEENS TO THE LOWER 20S.  WINDS WILL BE GUSTY THROUGH THE
DAY AND INTO THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD.  THIS WILL RESULT IN WIND CHILLS
IN THE SINGLE DIGITS ACROSS THE INTERIOR.

FRIDAY...HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES TO BUILD INTO THE AREA.  GUSTY
WINDS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE DAY FRIDAY.  SO DESPITE SUN AND HIGH
TEMPERATURES REACHING INTO THE 20S...TEMPERATURES WILL FEEL LIKE
THEY ARE IN THE SINGLE DIGITS TO THE TEENS.  OVERNIGHT...AS THE NEXT
SYSTEM APPROACHES THE AREA THE CHANCE OF SNOW WILL INCREASE.  LOW
TEMPERATURES WILL BE IN THE SINGLE DIGITS TO TEENS.

SATURDAY...A SURFACE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN
CANADA PULLING A COLD FRONT ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.  AHEAD OF
THE FRONT THERE IS A CHANCE OF SNOW SHOWERS ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA.
HIGHS WILL BE IN THE 20S TO MID 30S AND LOWS WILL BE IN THE MID
TEENS TO MID 20S.

SUNDAY...COLDER TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED AS AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH
MOVES ACROSS SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND.  HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN BEHIND
THE TROUGH WITH CLEARING SKIES.  WINDS WILL BE GUSTY STARTING OUT
THE DAY AND DIMINISH AS THE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN.  HIGHS WILL BE
IN THE 20S AND LOWS IN THE SINGLE DIGITS TO TEENS.

MONDAY...HIGH PRESSURE DOMINATES.  HIGHS WILL BE IN THE 20S.  LOWS
WILL BE IN THE SINGLE DIGITS TO TEENS.

RAIN...SLEET AND SNOW ACROSS THE INTERIOR.

WEDNESDAY...MVFR/IFR IN MIXED WINTRY PRECIPITATION ACROSS THE
INTERIOR. RAIN EXPECTED TO DEVELOP SOUTH AND EAST OF A LINE FROM
