Winter Weather Advisory

Statement as of 4:53 AM EST on January 06, 2009

Expires 6:00 PM EST on January 07, 2009


... Winter Weather Advisory in effect from 11 PM this evening to
6 PM EST Wednesday...

The National Weather Service in Taunton has issued a Winter
Weather Advisory for snow and ice accumulation... which is in effect
from 11 PM this evening to 6 PM EST Wednesday. The Winter Storm
Watch is no longer in effect.

This Winter Weather Advisory is for eastern Essex... western
Norfolk... southeast Middlesex and Suffolk counties in Massachusetts.

Snow is expected to develop across the region this evening.
However... warmer air aloft will force the snow to change to a wintry
mix of snow... sleet and freezing rain after midnight. Ice accumulations
of less than one quarter inch are expected.

When combined with 1 to 3 inches of snow and sleet accumulation in
addition to the ice... some travel problems are anticipated tonight
and Wednesday. Untreated surfaces will be slick for the Wednesday
morning commute... so please plan accordingly. Enough warm air should
arrive by Wednesday afternoon to transition all precipitation to
rain.

A Winter Weather Advisory is issued when snow and/or ice is
forecast to develop in the affected areas... but accumulations are
expected to be light. Any snow or ice would make driving and
walking difficult... but not impossible... on untreated roadways
and sidewalks. When temperatures are below freezing... motorists
need to be especially careful on bridges and overpasses where
slippery spots can easily develop.
