...WINTER HAS COME BACK IN FULL FORCE...

A POWERFUL COLD FRONT BLASTED THROUGH THE REGION BY LATE THIS 
MORNING, ALLOWING MUCH COLDER AIR TO OVERSPREAD THE ENTIRE AREA. 
SNOW WILL CONTINUE THROUGH A GOOD PORTION OF THE AFTERNOON AT 
VARYING INTENSITY. 

TEMPERATURES ARE NOW BELOW FREEZING AND WITH A NORTHWEST WIND AT 20 
TO 30 MPH, SURFACE TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO COOL DOWN. THIS MAY 
LEAD TO SLIPPERY SPOTS, ESPECIALLY LESS TRAVELED ROADS, BRIDGES AND 
OVERPASSES. MOST OF THE ACCUMULATING SNOW SHOULD BE CONFINED TO NON 
PAVED AREAS, WITH TOTAL SNOW ACCUMULATIONS OF 1 TO 3 INCHES 
EXPECTED. THE GUSTY WINDS COUPLED WITH THE FALLING SNOW WILL REDUCE 
THE VISIBILITY DOWN TO AROUND ONE HALF OF A MILE. USE CAUTION IF 
TRAVELING THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND LEAVE EXTRA DISTANCE BETWEEN YOU 
AND THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF YOU. WITH THE MUCH COLDER TEMPERATURES 
AND GUSTY WINDS, WIND CHILL VALUES WILL BE DROPPING INTO THE TEENS 
THIS AFTERNOON.

THE SNOW IS EXPECTED TO END LATE THIS AFTERNOON OR EARLY EVENING AS 
INTENSIFYING LOW PRESSURE MOVES INTO NEW ENGLAND. STAY TUNED TO NOAA 
ALL HAZARDS WEATHER RADIO, OR YOUR LOCAL MEDIA OUTLET FOR UPDATES ON 
THIS QUICK RETURN TO WINTER.
