miles per hour in a lot of spots as high as 38 miles per hour in providencetown. so the wind yesterday gusted over 50 miles per hour at times. won't be as strong as today but will create a blustery feel. real feel in the single digits feels like 5 at logan airport and feels like 3 below in worcester. so another very cold start. real feel will be a little bit above where it was yesterday. and it will be a few degrees warmer so through the afternoon, the wind chill forecast will gradually rise through the teens into the low 20s and by the time we get to the afternoon. skies are clear so it's going to be beautiful looking day. and to the west we have got snow coming through chicago down through kentucky and tennessee with several inches of snow this morning. that will pass to the south. it's the next disturbance that's just come into the pacific northwest. this is our weather maker and the energy that is going to dig through the rockies and eventually form our storm as we head into the weekend. so until then it's quiet. mostly sunny today.

of sunshine again tomorrow. the wind will be a little active. by the time we get to tomorrow, area of low pressure will be developing along the gulf coast states. it's going to pick up some moisture from the gulf and it's going redevelop into a storm center off the carolina coastline. the mid atlantic looks like it's going to be the jackpot for the storm. is it out of the reel will of -- realm of possibility some parts see potentially one to two feet of snow? not out of the question. hooks like the storm will pass south and east of nantucket. that would put us on the northern fringech the question is how close -- fringech the question is how close does it get. either way several inches are likely. it's wednesday keep that in mind. the risk of plowable snow decreases. the farther north you go because i think there will be a sharp northern edge in terms of the cut off of the snowfall. highest risk of the greater amounts would be along and south of the mass pike and back down along the south coast. now keep in mind this is track

close are we bump everything a little farther north. and there may be some mixing that results in the outer cape and nantucket so a lot of details in the next couple days. today's highs, right around 30. not the 20s yesterday. tonight we drop back into the teens and to right around 20 in boston and tomorrow is very similar to today. gusts between the 20 to 30-mile- per-hour range and highs up around 30 and accu-weather seven-day forecast will be either side of 30 on through the weekend and if the snow develops here in southern new england it will be a saturday afternoon and evening. tapering off on sunday start of next week looks quieter with a little moderation in temperatures. we should be in the 40s by tuesday. traffic and weather together robi. >> reporter: we have a storm coming and you have your dorothy red shoes on. >> got to click them three times that's it. >> reporter: can you show one. >> i am like cint lift my foot you will. >> reporter: look at that. an ominous warning. >> ominous? i think lucky rough ors lucky yeah.
