Warning Description: Winter Storm Watch
Warning Date: 11:08 PM EST on February 8, 2010
WarningSum:...Winter Storm Watch Remains In Effect From Wednesday Morning
Through Late Wednesday Night...
Warning Message:A Winter Storm Watch remains in effect from Wednesday morning
through late Wednesday night.
This Winter Storm Watch includes northern Connecticut...Rhode
Island and southeast Massachusetts.
Snow is expected to develop over the watch area Wednesday morning
or early afternoon. The snow may become heavy at times Wednesday
afternoon and continue into the evening. The Wednesday evening
rush hour may be quite messy with moderate to heavy snow falling.
Northeast wind gusts of 40 to 55 mph may also affect the
southeast New England coast Wednesday afternoon and night...with
the strongest winds across the cape and islands. This could
result in poor visibilities and some blowing and drifting snow.
The snow will be wet across the coast and bring the potential for
a few power outages. The snow should diminish in intensity and
taper off to flurries after midnight.
This storm is still 36 to 48 hours away and the exact track
remains uncertain. If the system GOES further north...the
potential for heavy snow would increase and the watch would
likely have to be expanded north. A track further south would
likely confine the heavy snow to the immediate South Coast.
The potential for 6 or more inches of snow exists across the
entire watch area. At this time...the highest probability of
reaching warning criteria will be along the South Coast. There
also is the possibility that the snow mixes with or changes to
rain for a time across portions of the cape and islands. If this
happens it would cut down on snow amounts in that region.
Precautionary/preparedness actions...
A Winter Storm Watch is issued for the potential of accumulating
snow of 6 or more inches in a 12 hour period...or 8 or more
inches in a 24 hour period. Anyone traveling in the next 24 to
36 hours should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to modify
travel plans should winter weather develop.
