next chance of snow

I am now keeping an eye on the weekend forecast as snow is a possibility both Saturday night and Sunday night.
these are the quotes I am finding online from meteorologists. No one is discussing the weekend storms yet.

"There is a lot of noise in the atmosphere during this time frame, but it appears the most significant storm could end up being the Sunday night one. The timing, track and precipitation type all still remain in question. Stay tuned for updates in the next 24-to-48 hours." ~ CBS

"Then, as we head into Sunday night and Monday, a quick moving storms zips through the east coast. This one will have a good slug of moisture with it, and will deliver rain/snow into southern New England. Rain/snow line too early to pin down, but where it snows, it could be significant."
~WHDH


I will post when I have more details (probably will post Friday night)

Could this be our first snow day?

All my seniors are looking for a snow day and they may finally get their wish. The timing on this storm is over night into the early morning. That is perfect timing to get a snow day

Most weather station are reporting 3-6 inches of snow for us and I am sure all my students are hoping we the high end of this amount. 

I will check all the weather maps again later this afternoon and I will post here if anything changes. If there isn't a new post by 4:00 this afternoon that means the snow amounts haven't changed

Update for Tuesday

Good morning everyone. Are you ready for some snow tomorrow? The snow should be starting in the early afternoon and continuing until 1:00 am when it will then change to freezing rain and eventually all rain. All signs point to a treacherous commute tomorrow afternoon.
Here are all the snow total maps I could find. They all seem to have around 3 inches for the Norton Area.

I will check for new maps later this afternoon. I will post if anything changes. If I don't post again by 4:30 this afternoon, that means that nothing has changed

Winter Storm Maya

We have some snow headed our way Tuesday afternoon. Every article I have read about this storm has the snow moving in shortly after noon time. The snow will continue for the rest of the afternoon and most of the evening. In the early morning hours, (around 2am), the snow will change over to rain which should end between 7 and 8 am.
The snow total amounts vary at this time. Below I have posted what I found online. I will look for updated snow total maps tomorrow and post those.

More Ice - Less snow

We have some changes with this storm. The amount of snow has been lowered. Instead we may get a lot of ice which is not a good thing for power outages. Here are the latest snow total maps.

This is a map I found showing the amount of ice that is expected

The ice is heavy and may cause power lines to come down so you need to be prepared for power outages. Keep your fingers crossed that doesn't happen Sunday night when the Patriots game is on.

Weekend update

Good morning everyone. I hope everyone has made plans to stay put all day Sunday. We have precipitation arriving after dark Saturday night and lasting through Sunday night. I have watched every weather forecast I could find last night and this morning in addition to reading a few articles about this storm, Harper, headed our way. This is what is supposed to happen. Snow starts Saturday night (9-10pm) then some time Sunday changes to a wintry mix and possibly to ice. The storm may change back to snow at the end. This storm will bring cod temperatures behind it so be sure to clean up your driveway before the frigid air arrives.
Below are all the snow total maps I could find this morning. I will do another update tonight if anything changes.

Latest on Harper

Some weather stations are posting snow map totals so below I have re-posted everything I can find. Tomorrow morning I will post all the new and updated snow total maps.
Channels 4 and 5 from Boston don't have any totals just rough information

The national weather service and channel 7 WHDH have actually snow amunts

I'll be back early tomorrow morning with the latest update and hopefully a lot more information.

Harper - Our weekend storm

Just a quick update this morning. I will be back with a more in depth update tonight. The snow will start falling some time late Saturday night and continue into Sunday. We may mix with ice and possibly a little rain too.
The storm seems to have taken a track a bit south which means higher snowfall totals for us. The weather channel is the first to put out a snow total map

I am sure there will be more maps out later today so I will post whatever I can find. Check back some time early this evening for an update.

Don't forget there will be a little snowfall Friday morning too. Just an inch but the snow will probably impact the morning commute. Drive carefully

weekend snow

Good morning everyone, are you ready for a little snow this weekend? We start with a coating to an inch Friday morning. I know that isn't much snow but the timing isn't good as the snow will be falling during the morning commute. Drive carefully.
Then we get the bigger storm set to arrive Saturday night and last all day Sunday. Saturday night we will get snow but that should change to rain on Sunday as the storm travels inland. If the track of the storm changes then the snow amounts will change. Since this storm track continues to change everyday I guess I will continue to update this blog every day.

Martin Luther King weekend

Here is my daily update on the upcoming weekend storm. The track of the storm is critical as far as determining who gets snow and who gets rain. There is a possibility that we only 3-4 inches of snow and the rest is rain. As of this morning the storm is tracking more north giving the Norton area more rain than snow, but stay turned because that can change.
