<\/p>\nTwo systems threaten New England ahead of Patriots playoff game<\/p>\n
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCONFETTI BECAUSE THEY\u2019VE WON. WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT AGE? I LIKE THE SOUND OF THAT. THAT THAT SOUNDS AWESOME. HEY, YOU KNOW WHAT? WE\u2019RE GOING TO LOOK AT THE 12 HOUR FORECAST HERE FOR BOSTON OKAY. AND YOU\u2019RE GOING TO SAY WHAT SNOW. HOW IS IT GOING TO SNOW WHEN IT\u2019S 3839 DEGREES OUTSIDE. WELL THIS IS FOR BOSTON AND THE IMMEDIATE AREA. SO YOU CAN SEE HERE THAT WE DO MAKE IT UP INTO THE UPPER 30S. TOMORROW WE WILL HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF SUNSHINE IN THE MORNING, BUT AN AWFULLY CLOUDY MIDDAY AND AFTERNOON TIME FRAME FEELS LIKE TEMPERATURES WON\u2019T BE TOO TOUGH TO TAKE EITHER. SO WHERE IS THIS SNOW WE\u2019RE TALKING ABOUT? WELL, OVER THE NEXT 12 HOURS, THAT LIGHT SNOW WILL BE INCHING CLOSER TO WESTERN PARTS OF WORCESTER COUNTY, THE WORCESTER HILLS. IT SHOULD BE SNOWING THERE BY MORNING. WE\u2019VE GOT TWO ROUNDS OF THAT SNOW FOR THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND, ONE IN THE FORM OF SOME LIGHT RAIN AND SNOW TOMORROW, AND THE OTHER ONE COMING IN FOR SOUTHEASTERN MASSACHUSETTS SPECIFICALLY ON SUNDAY. WHERE IS THE FIRST SYSTEM? WELL, YOU CAN KIND OF SEE IT TAKING SHAPE HERE. WE\u2019VE GOT A SWIRL UP THIS WAY. LOW PRESSURE PRECIPITATION DOWN THIS WAY. AND THE TWO WORK IN CONCERT TO BRING US OUR BOUT WITH SOME SNOW IN SOME AREAS FOR TOMORROW. 19 TO 27 DEGREES WARMEST DOWN TOWARD THE CAPE AND THE ISLANDS. COLDEST. WELL NORTH AND WEST UP INTO THE HILLS OF WORCESTER COUNTY. TOMORROW, 33 TO 45 WARMEST AGAIN DOWN TOWARD THE CAPE AND THE ISLANDS INTO THE BOSTON AREA, AND THEN COLDEST, WHERE WE ACTUALLY HAVE THE SNOW. SO WHERE IS THAT SNOW GOING TO BE? ALL RIGHT. WELL, THE AREA OF LOW PRESSURE BRINGS THAT SNOW INTO PORTIONS OF WORCESTER COUNTY, SOUTHWEST NEW HAMPSHIRE, AND BACK INTO THE WESTERN HALF OF THE STATE. THAT\u2019S WHERE I THINK YOU\u2019RE GOING TO SEE YOUR WELL, LET\u2019S CALL IT YOUR HIGHEST SNOW TOTALS. THEY\u2019RE NOT GOING TO BE TERRIBLY HIGH, BUT THAT\u2019S WHERE YOU\u2019LL SEE THE BULK OF YOUR PRECIPITATION. THEN WE GET INTO SUNDAY. AND THIS IS A STORM SYSTEM THAT\u2019S OUT HERE ACTUALLY. BUT IT\u2019S CLOSE ENOUGH TO FLING ITS NORTHWESTERN SHIELD OF PRECIPITATION INTO SOUTHEASTERN MASSACHUSETTS. SO HERE\u2019S THE SNOW FOR TOMORROW. NOTICE IT KIND OF MARKS TIME RIGHT UP HERE ALONG THE 495 BELT HERE. SO IT\u2019S WEST OF WORCESTER, UP INTO THE ROUTE TWO CORRIDOR. THAT\u2019S GOING TO SEE THE THE BULK OF THE PRECIPITATION ONCE IT REACHES BOSTON IT\u2019S A LOT LESS. IT WILL COME THROUGH QUICKLY. IT\u2019S A FEW SHOWERS WET SNOWFLAKES. AND I THINK THE CAPE AND THE ISLANDS SEE VERY LITTLE FROM THAT SYSTEM. WE\u2019LL TALK ABOUT SUNDAY MOMENTARILY. SO AGAIN OUT TOWARD THE WORCESTER HILLS, 3 TO 5IN OF SNOW IS POSSIBLE, 1 TO 3IN AROUND THE WORCESTER AREA UP TOWARD THE MERRIMACK VALLEY. BUT THEN AMOUNTS DROP AS YOU GET TOWARD THE CITY VERY MUCH. NOTHING AROUND THE SOUTH SHORE COMMUNITIES. THEN SUNDAY COMES AND HERE WE GO. WITH THE SNOW STARTING TO EXPAND INTO SOUTHEASTERN MASSACHUSETTS. REMEMBER, IT WAS HERE. TOMORROW. IT WILL BE HERE ON SUNDAY, AND IT\u2019S MARGINAL TEMPERATURE WISE. SO THAT, YOU KNOW, WE MAY LOSE A LITTLE BIT OF THE SNOW TO MELTING DOWN TOWARD PARTS OF THE CAPE AND THE ISLANDS. WOULDN\u2019T SURPRISE ME ON NANTUCKET TO SEE SOME MIXING DOWN THAT WAY. IT DOESN\u2019T MAKE IT TOO FAR INLAND. IT\u2019S REALLY FROM BOSTON, DOWN THROUGH PROVIDENCE, AND POINTS TO THE SOUTH AND EAST. NOW, COULD THIS JOG A LITTLE BIT TOWARD THE TOWARD THE NORTHWEST? SURE. SO THAT\u2019S WHY I\u2019M GOING ABOUT 2 TO 4IN, INCLUDING JUST ABOUT ALL OF PLYMOUTH AND BRISTOL COUNTIES, MAYBE UP TOWARD THE BOSTON AREA, LIKE BRAINTREE, FOR EXAMPLE, AND THE CAPE AND THE ISLANDS. IT\u2019S GOING TO TURN COLDER BEHIND THIS STORM SYSTEM, AS YOU\u2019LL SEE ON THE SEVEN DAY FORECAST. THERE YOU GO. WE GOT A PAIR OF 30 NINES TOMORROW AND SUNDAY 33 THOUGH ON MONDAY. AND ONCE WE\u2019RE HEADING BACK TO WORK AND SCHOOL ON TUESDAY, DON\u2019T FORGET WE\u2019VE GOT THE HOLIDAY MONDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL BE I\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
