Its confirmed. It will in fact snow again this Winter.
A Winter Storm Watch is in effect from Saturday morning through Sunday morning and not unlike most notable weather in our area this, one is wildly speculative across a myriad of models and of course subject to the ocean effect. Popular tracks show the path curling off the coast just south of the Cape while others put us on the leading edge.
In any event, new age weather terminology, barreling, historic, crippling, catastrophic, etc appear to be dedicated to the mid Atlantic states thus far.
Snow or mixed precipitation looks to begin mid day Saturday with temperatures in the low to mid 30’s with winds in the upper 20’s. Heading into Sunday, temperatures look to climb towards the low 40’s for Monday with should make short work of the speculated 6” of accumulation.
A follow up will be issued mid to late afternoon Saturday.
As a lifelong resident of the outer Cape I was the third generation to pick up the mantel in the family construction business. In my early twenties, I called the Cape my home on weekends as I spent several years working for a variety of off-Cape commercial construction companies. My site supervision resume includes two supermarkets, two HUD projects, a funeral home and a handful of steel industrial buildings as well as various restaurant and office remodels.
