Grazed

The rain slowly changed to snow this evening, and will last until 11 PM or so. A coating on some cars are possible. Any slush or puddles left will freeze as temps will fall into the 20's by morning. The next storm up is Friday and this point it seems like a grazing. The storm will explode to far out to sea to give us a lot of snow, with the most snow falling in SE MA. Of course, a shift further NW would bring the heaviest totals to the Boston area, and that is still possible.
