Storm Coordination Message #1 – Saturday February 11th, 2012 Snowstorm event
Hello to all..
..Accumulating snow likely Saturday across much of Southern New England with the highest amounts over Rhode Island and Southeast Massachusetts except for Cape Cod and the Islands where a mix of snow and rain may hold down amounts there. Winter Weather Advisories are likely to be issued for portions of the area for Saturday. A closer storm track could bring higher snowfall totals to the region while a track further away from the region could mean lighter snowfall for the area..
..SKYWARN Self-Activation will likely be utilized for this storm event for snowfall reports. Strong winds could affect portions of the coast later Saturday and Saturday Night as a brief surge of arctic air moves into the region for Sunday. Another coordination message will be issued by 11 PM this evening with further details. Below is the NWS Taunton Hazardous Weather Outlook..
