Snow Friday

Thursday will be another warm day with sunny skies and temps in the 50's. A storm will then ride up the coast and give us a shot of snow Friday morning. Ocean effect snow showers are possible on Christmas eve, with a coating of snow possible. Also, at this point the Christmas nor'easter is off-heading too far south.
