Spring is officially here in New England, but that doesn’t mean the chance for snow is gone.
The forecast this weekend does call for snow in the interior, with higher elevations in Vermont and New Hampshire inline for accumulating snowfall.
Many think that the spring season means warm, sunny days ahead, but that’s not always the case in New England. “Backdoor Cold Fronts” can take a sunny, warm day and quickly turn it into a cold, drizzly day. These fronts are common in the spring, and originate to the north and east, usually over the cold waters of the Atlantic and the Gulf of Maine. They’re called backdoor because the direction they move -- northeast to southwest -- is the opposite of a standard cold front.
Certain times western Massachusetts can be near 80 degrees with sunshine, while Boston is in the 40s, with drizzle and fog. We welcome spring this year after a mild, and tranquil winter. Let’s hope the next few months follow the same pattern that winter did!
