Overview
- A fast-moving clipper will bring light snow late Friday into Saturday, generally a coating to a couple of inches with locally higher totals near the coast from ocean-enhanced bands.
- As the system departs, northwest winds are expected to gust 30–50 mph, strongest on Cape Cod and the Islands.
- Wind chills early Sunday could drop to 20 to 25 degrees below zero across parts of New England and the I‑95 corridor, with daytime highs struggling to reach the teens.
- The National Weather Service is monitoring for possible Extreme Cold Warnings, and local meteorologists have issued Alert Day notices for Sunday.
- Officials caution that frostbite can develop within minutes and that rapidly freezing surfaces, hazardous travel, and isolated coastal or power impacts are possible, with signs of moderation later in February.
