Storm Coordination Message #1 – Late Monday Night 12/28/15-Tuesday 12/29/15 Winter Storm Potential
Hello to all..
..The first winter storm of the season will affect much of Southern New England late Monday Night into early Tuesday Evening with a Wintry Mix of precipitation. The Tuesday Morning Commute will have the highest degree of impact with some impact possible in some areas for the Tuesday Evening commute..
..Areas along the coastal plain will likely see snow to a wintry mix to rain. Across the interior, some of the southern and eastern portions of the interior are likely to still see a changeover to rain while the northwest interior areas may see a prolonged period of snow or a wintry mix of precipitation..
..Future coordination messages will have more details on this first winter storm of the season including snow and ice amounts and better details on the changeover in precipitation type. This message is being sent as an “early notification” on the potential first winter storm of the season given the holiday season, the very mild record breaking temperatures of the past few days and the lack of winter storms that have affected the region in the late 2015 timeframe..
..SKYWARN Activation in some form is likely for this storm over the course of the day on Tuesday. Ops at NWS Taunton are possible. The next coordination message will likely be sent Sunday Evening between 6-11 PM. Below is the NWS Taunton Hazardous Weather Outlook and snow/ice amount and probability graphics..
