heather: well, skiers are going to be happy. harvey: if you look towards the northwest horizon, the clouds are thin and there is colder and drier air. but that we' ve got the storm going up the coast and that is going to complicate matters quite a bit. here is the way it is going to set up. 54 in boston. you are tempted to say, i am going to really doubt what you are talking about here with the temperatures so mild. the wind is out of the northwest and it is not strong but it is cold and that air is going to ever so gradually going to filter in over the next 15 through 18 hours. it is the 40' s to the north and the west and if you wide now it a little bit more, you can see -- if you widen out a little that more coming you can see it is going to be cold enough to support the rain changing to snow.

time. see how we dropped to the 40' s in boston around 11:00 tonight. in the morning it is raining a boston because it is 41. but then look at the temperature downward? it is going to get dental 33 and it will still be raining at the cape at 40, but the cold air continues to move southeastern direction. we will have snow falling and then it finishes up the snow follow. here is the storm that is eventually going to do it. we have a week cold front -- through front. as the cold air slowly filters and, it will bring in some snow. this is getting close to boston. then we earn some heavy rain through the morning. around 5:00 a.m., this is mixing with snow and it starts to

eventually, that happens in boston as well. this is around 7:00 in the morning. it is snowing steadily and probably starting to accumulate in boston. still raining at a good clip down at the cape. snow gradually ends from west to east mid-to-late afternoon. so when all is said and done, our best estimate is that we will have a minimum of four and a maximum of eight possible inches of snow all around the re estimating three to five inches at the cape. when you get the of orange and beyond, smaller amounts. that is why there is a winter storm warning around most of our area and down in the cape, they are at a winter weather advisory. and -- whoa -- that was almost a trip! a stumble! that' s what you have to be
