Tuesday's Storm Developments

Get ready for another Northeast snow storm for Tuesday! Almost all indications point to a significant snowfall for our area, possibly a foot or more.

The timing is perfect for the storm, as it will begin in the evening on Monday about 8 or 9 PM. The amount of moisture could be in the 1 to 2 inch range, which would translate to 10 to 20 inches of snow. What will keep snow totals down is the chance of a period of mixed precipitation. Realistically, we are looking at the potential for 6 to 12 inches.

The only really big issue is MCAS testing, the first day of which is scheduled for that Tuesday. We'll see if the State hands down a decree about how to proceed, but it could be a major factor for school superintendents.

This could be winter's last stand. Enjoy the hype. For some schools, this could be the first full snow day of the entire winter.

Happy St. Patty's day, and don't forget to vote for this storm's name. We will name her tomorrow around noon when the poll closes.
