February 17, 2015 Rob Macedo Leave a comment

Hello to all..

..Another winter storm to affect the region. This storm will be much smaller but will add additional snow to the deep snow pack in Southern New England..
..A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for Cape Cod and the Islands from 6 AM-6 PM Tuesday for 3-5″ of snow. The rest of the region is expected to receive 1-3″ of snow. It is possible that some parts of Southeast Massachusetts could receive slightly more than 1-3″ of snow depending on the storm track and any coastal front setup over the area..
..SKYWARN Self-Activation will monitor for snowfall totals from this storm. This will likely be the only coordination message on this storm event unless a significant upgrade to the situation occurs. Below is the NWS Taunton Winter Weather Advisory Statement, Hazardous Weather Outlook and the Winter Weather Graphics Page..
