Blizzard Saturday?

The light snow tonight won't be as widespread as I thought yesterday. Scattered snow showers after midnight tonight and early Wednesday. It may leave a coating in some areas. However, some locations may have just flurries. Then, cold and dry air will come in for Thursday and Friday. Then, another in a line of storms will come up the east coast. It will intensify as it comes up the coast. Once again, the track is key. Right now, it appears we will be right on the edge of the heavy snow. So a plowable (6+) snow is likely on Saturday afternoon and evening, especially in Boston and points south.  If the storm comes a little closer, we will get more. 

Boston, MA forecast

Tonight: Cloudy with scattered snow showers after midnight. Lows in the low to mid 20's. 

Wednesday: Cloudy with scattered snow showers in the morning, then faint sun in the afternoon. High 35. Some locations may have a coating of snow by noon. A light north wind. 

Wednesday night: Clearing, lows near 20. 

Thursday: Sunny, but breezy. High 30. 

Friday: Sunny with increasing clouds late. Highs in the upper 20's. 

Saturday: Cloudy in the morning, then snow in the afternoon. 6+ inches are likely by Sunday morning. Highs in the upper 20's. Windy along the coast. 

Sunday: Clearing and windy, highs in the mid 20's. 

Groundhog day: Phil did see his shadow, despite the cloudy conditions. That means 6 more weeks of winter.
