Today's Weather: More Snow Possible Tonight, With Another Storm On Its Way

The storm that brought snow, sleet and rain to the region overnight and into early Monday gave us a bit of a lull today. Now, a second storm is moving into the region, bringing additional snow overnight into Tuesday.

As we head toward dark, temperatures will begin to fall and colder air will move toward the coastline. This can produce some black ice if there is still moisture on the road, so be aware of that possibility as you're headed home.

Upper-level energy is going to dive south overnight below New England and ignite a major ocean storm for early Tuesday morning. The bulk of this moisture will fall out over the ocean, but the western side of it is going to nick eastern New England. This is a very close call. If the storm is a little further east, we will not see much snow on Tuesday beyond up to a couple of inches. If it's a little closer to the coastline, we could see 6 inches or more.

This snow will be lighter and not heavy and wet, as temperatures will actually be falling back below freezing. As the storm rotates up into the Gulf of Maine, that band of snow tomorrow morning should give Cape Cod and the Islands some accumulation as well.

Once that storm is finally up into Canada, skies will clear and we are looking at dry and chilly weather for the rest of the week.
