Weekend Outlook: February 23-26, 2024

The final weekend of February and Meteorological Winter will feature a little bit of everything.

One system brings in some rain today, another has some light snow or rain Sunday night. Loop provided by Tropical Tidbits.

Some showers are likely through the morning ahead of a cold front, with some wet snow at least to start as you get up into the hills of south-central New Hampshire. The cold front moves through by midday, but a wave of low pressure will ride up along it as it moves offshore. This may keep the rain going for several more hours across Cape Cod, while the rest of us start to dry out. Gusty northwest winds behind the system usher much cooler air in for tonight and Saturday as high pressure builds in with sunshine. Winds die down Saturday night and skies remain clear, setting the stage for a rather chilly night. The cold air doesn’t last long though as temperatures start to moderate a bit on Sunday, getting back closer to normal for late-February. Another weak system moves through Sunday night with some snow or rain showers, then milder air moves in for Monday.
