THIRTY BELOW!??!
How's this for a big hearty "fuck you!" from Mother Nature?
Severe Weather Alert from the National Weather Service
... THE COLDEST AIR IN NEARLY TWO DECADES IS LIKELY TO AFFECT SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND TUESDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY...
THIS PAST FRIDAY AND SATURDAYS WEATHER MAY HAVE BEEN JUST A TASTE OF WHAT IS LIKELY TO BE EVEN GREATER IN MAGNITUDE OF RECORD COLD.
THE NEXT SURGE OF FRIGID AIR WILL ARRIVE IN THE FORM OF AN ARCTIC COLD FRONT LATE TUESDAY. SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS AND FLURRIES WILL ACCOMPANY THE FRONTAL PASSAGE... ALONG WITH GALE FORCE WIND GUSTS BEGINNING LATER TUESDAY. WEDNESDAY WILL FIND TEMPERATURES HOVERING NEAR ZERO WITH CHILL SIMILAR TO THAT OF THIS PAST FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.
CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY TO WORSEN THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY AS A REINFORCING SURGE OF FRIGID AIR OVERSPREADS NEW ENGLAND. THIS AIRMASS WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY DANGEROUSLY COLD WIND CHILLS OF 25 TO 30 BELOW ZERO AND RECORD COLD TEMPERATURES OF 5 TO 15 BELOW FOR MUCH OF THE AREA. EVEN THE CAPE AND NANTUCKET SHOULD SEE TEMPERATURES DROP TO AROUND ZERO.
SNOW FROM EARLY TODAY AND THEN POSSIBLY AGAIN THURSDAY WILL MAKE IT EASIER FOR THE COLD TO PENETRATE TO THE SOUTH COAST. A COASTAL STORM MAY IMPACT THE REGION THURSDAY... ESPECIALLY ACROSS CONNECTICUT... RHODE ISLAND... SOUTHEAST MASSACHUSETTS INCLUDING THE CAPE AND ISLANDS... WHERE SEVERAL HOURS OF ACCUMULATING SNOW ARE POSSIBLE. AS THE STORM INTENSIFIES AND PASSES TO OUR EAST... WE WILL FEEL ITS BLUSTERY EFFECTS THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY. IN ADDITION... CAPE COD AND NANTUCKET COULD EXPERIENCE ADDITIONAL ACCUMULATIONS THURSDAY NIGHT... AS OCEAN EFFECT SNOW SQUALLS DEVELOP BEHIND THE DEPARTING OCEAN STORM.
TEMPERATURES WILL RECOVER THIS WEEKEND AS THE CORE OF THIS FRIGID AIRMASS SHIFTS EAST OF NEW ENGLAND.
HEATING SYSTEMS... CAR BATTERIES AS WELL AS PLUMBING SYSTEMS THAT ARE NOT IN GOOD WORKING ORDER AND NOT PROPERLY INSULATED FROM THE COLD WILL BE SUSCEPTIBLE TO THIS 3 DAY PERIOD OF EXCESSIVE COLD. (Awesome! And I thought this past hot-waterless weekend was fun!)
PLEASE STAY TUNED FOR UPDATED STATEMENTS ON THE UPCOMING COLD... STRONG WIND AND POSSIBLE SNOWS.
