Good Thursday all-
Today is going to be a rather nice day, considering what we've been experiencing recently. Temps may even reach the freezing point today, as we continue to warm up. Tomorrow through Sunday should be fairly similar to today before an interesting cold front moves through Sunday night bringing what could be a rather heavy wintry mix that could really snarl up the roads for the Monday AM commute, which is certainly worth watching as that's not exactly the best way to start the week! After that, the weather clears and is very cold.
Beyond that, however, around 10-14 days out, there are indications that the infamous "Greenland Block" will set up, and, should that occur, the true snowstorms will finally come to southern New England. Sometime late next week is the first chance for this, around Friday. For what it's worth, by the way, this is far from the least snowy winter on record. Through this date in 2007-08, there was literally no snow the entire winter through this date. It doesn't feel like it, but there really is still 2.5 months left in the snowy season, so there still is plenty of time for the big one.
Today in weather history- January 15, 1780- Somehow, New York Harbor manages to completely freeze over beginning today for 5 weeks, and the ice was so thick that the colonists were able to transport heavy cannons over it!
