CASILIST : Report from Beverly, Mass.

Thought I'd throw in my report from Beverly, Mass.
Snow began Friday around 4pm.. Accumulated to about 2.8" before
changing
to sleet then very quickly to rain around 11:30pm. Temperatures began
the day
around 21 and rose to 26, dropped to 22 when the snow began.. Climbed
to 34F at the time of change over.. We now stand at 58f with Southwest
wind at 20 knots gusting to 30 knots.. Very pleasant springlike day...
However; the latest 48 hour ETA model shows a VERY strong arctic front
on the way, 850mb cold pool of -35C heading southeastward.. The core
should get shunted more eastward across northern New England but some
very cold air on the way nevertheless and the possibility of an
important
overrunning situation coming in the 3-5 day period.
