NEW: RI May Get Up To 6 Inches Of Snow On Tuesday
Tuesday, February 18, 2014
It looks like today's snow event will turn out to be a little brother of some of the storms we've had this winter. Low pressure in the Eastern Great Lakes this morning will morph into an intensifying storm in the Gulf of Maine this evening. We will get caught on the fringe of the transition process and could see a brief period of heavier snow this afternoon. Some rain could mix in toward the coast. Any precipitation should end quickly this evening.
Snowfall totals will not be impressive ranging from 3"-6" over extreme Northwest Rhode Island, 2''-4" in the metro Providence area and less in and around Southern Rhode Island and Southeastern Massachusetts. The Worcester area may see 4"-8".
A few rain showers should usher in a modest "warm-up" beginning tomorrow and extending into the weekend. Look for it to be slushy and mushy underfoot for a few days as some of the fresh and old snow covers melts.
