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.
