Midweek Storm Likely in Southern New England

Saturday was the nicest, mildest day in the past couple of weeks at the South Coast of Massachusetts. The temperature jumped into the 50s under mostly sunny skies through midday. A cold front will move through Saturday night, and it will be much cooler on Sunday. Highs will be in the upper 30s on Sunday. The weather looks fairly quiet early in the week, with the chance of snow showers or light snow early Monday. A minor accumulation of less than an inch is possible, mainly on grassy surfaces. It will be near 40 on Monday afternoon. Tuesday looks quiet and a bit milder with highs in the mid to upper 40s.

A storm will move from the Midwest to the Northeast on Wednesday. Right now, it looks like the storm will bring mainly cold rain to the South Coast on Wednesday. The temperature will be in the mid 30s to low 40s. As the storm passes by Wednesday night, there is a chance of snow on the back side of the storm. The temperature will drop through the 20s. A minor accumulation is possible late Wednesday night or early Thursday. The weather will be quite cold in the wake of the storm late next week. It may stay in the 20s on Thursday, and only reach the low 30s on Friday.
