Northeast snow and rain

Posted by: NEwxguy, 12:59 PM GMT on March 01, 2012

This storm is basically a little of everything,the more north you go, the more snow.Here just west of boston,I have about 3 inches of wet snow,mostly slush on the roadways.Its been switching back and forth rain and snow all night,right now a burst of moderate snow.
Decided to work from home today,with fighting a heavy cold and the slop that is out there.This is forecast to continue off and on all day.
Most of this will get washed away on Saturday with a warm rain storm.

Hi NEw! Sorry to hear that you've caught a nasty cold at the tail end of of winter. Smart move to be able to stay home and care for it! Hope you're feeling better soon! My area's received only a few inches of mostly snow. Thankfully, I can still see parts of an exposed roadway outside. Unfortunately, I have to trapse myself to Burlington, MA, early afternoon, for an appointment I couldn't cancel. The worst should be over by then, as I see on current regional maps that the remainder of this system is moving in a more northerly direction and should affect mostly Southern, NH. I'm also glad that I drive a still functional, small, all-terrain vehicle. LOL! By this weekend, it will seem like, what one of our local newscasters mentioned, "a tale of two seasons", as on Saturday we could see temps rise to 50 plus again! Sounds like there will be just enough warmth ahead to melt all traces of this pesky white stuff away. All in all, though, I can't complain about this winter season as it was quite decent in spite of this sudden jab. Remain warm and dry inside and get well soon from that miserable headcold! Hope you're not on-call this weekend! Member Since: June 21, 2006 Posts: 52 Comments: 7125

Hi,Mass,Roadways should be okay for your trip down to burlington.My neighborhood street has about 2 inches of slush,just very sloppy. I certainly feel better today then yesterday when I didn't even go to work.Yes,this has been a very easy winter by all standards,no complaints from me.

We have switched back to all snow as temps have started to drop,so road conditions may start to detoriate as the afternoon goes on,radar has definitely filled in around the area. Member Since: September 6, 2007 Posts: 816 Comments: 13094
