Well, we've survived the first week of 2022...barely.
It's been a rough week, but at least some of the students in the area got to sleep in today or enjoy a day off. The models did a fairly good job with their predictions. Certainly that was the case at the GSD Home Office where we ended up getting the forecasted 2 inches most models were showing.
The models get a lot of criticism, but so far this winter they've been spot on the day before a storm for our area.
Eastern Mass got pounded by this storm and it over-performed in a big way. Parts of Massachusetts southwest of Boston will see 14-20" when this storm final spirals its way out of the Gulf of Maine.
Next up is a shot of snow/wintry mix during the day on Sunday. We could see a slushy inch or two, but then the bigger weather news will be the intense shot of cold air expected for Tuesday. Highs will be in the single digits on Tuesday, and Tuesday night, temps will drop below zero.
Before you get ahead of yourselves, freeze delays are highly unlikely for Wednesday. We would need to get to double digits below zero before school heads start entertaining that idea.
After the cold air passes through, the week looks milder and quiet, but then the weather machine will ramp up the excitement again for a weekend storm. Sadly, we will not get to partake in the snow day prediction game due to the holiday on Monday. But we will gladly take a massive storm.
