out into worcester county, 495. afternoon. i don't expect much snow until 6:00 or 7:00 this evening. 31 in worcester. yes, it is above freezing. that helps us out. temperatures near 40 degrees this afternoon. initially, the first flakes aren't going to stick. they are going to melt on contact with the road. and this plume of moisture you see south of us, very slow to lift northbound. i do expect some patchy light snow or flurries, perhaps as early as 4:00 or 5:00 p.m. the bulk of the snow holding off until after 7:00. this will work through. we will have a period of snow 7:00 through 11:00 tonight. you will watch this rain-snow line inch farther off to the north and west through the overnight hours. in fact, after midnight tonight, the only location snowing, northern worcester county, northwest middlesex county. up into southern new hampshire. there may, indeed, be a period of sleet or freezing rain in the colder valley locations out there near pepperell and and up into southwestern new hampshire. until early tomorrow morning.

notice in worcester county, northern worcester county, seeing some of this at 8:45 in the morning and a few showers into boston by 9:30. the heavy stuff will come later on but there will be showers around during the morning drive. they'll just be spotty. here's the issue. out here in worcester county, it's below freezing. fitchburg is 30 degrees. through the night and into the morning, temperatures will start to go up as winds shift around to the south now. it will be a race to see if the precipitation gets in before the temperatures rises enough. same for new keene, new hampshire. manchester, worcester at 35 right now. it will be marginal where you get down to freezing in the city of worcester. but certainly worcester northward i'm mildly concerned about the potential of spots of ice out there. we're not talking about an ice little while between like 7:00 and 9:00 in the morning out in that part the state. the winds will start to pick up. a moderate risk for strong winds tomorrow, rain certainly going to get heavier and that ice risk is on the lower side. this is the rain that will c

first things first -- the ice lingering through worcester county. once we get into the afternoon, notice those steadier showers. some heavy downpours will be those will come through overnight and there could be a rumble of thunder and some torrential downpours as well. this will linger. the storm is tracking to our west and will bring in the heavy downpours. winds are a concern as well, over 50 miles per hour and a high wind watch. we' ve got the heavier rain in place, and take a look with me at future cast. tomorrow morning, those heavy downpours will be with us, but by 8:00, look where they are going -- offshore. we' re driving off the bulk of the day tomorrow, once we get past the morning. rainfall amounts on the order of 1-2 inches, then it dries out heading into the weekend. anchor: another weekend in the 50' s? meteorologist: yeah. anchor: we like it. thank you. so far, quiet on the roads, but you want to budget in some travel time. let' s get to the maps and check the rest of your trip -- no construction to contend with. if you are heading in

but it is cold enough out in worcester county and beyond. from worcester up, we have snow showers that are going on. we'll tend to see them continue around the region in scattered form through about 6:00 or 7:00 tonight and then once we lose a little bit of the heating of the day that we had, they will tend to dissipate. also, the disturbance responsible for them moving away. but there is another little disturbance in the upper levels of the atmosphere. it will come through during the first 2/3 of the day tomorrow. at 7:00, seeing some more break-outs around hartford, scattered around the region. doesn't mean they will be precisely where they are depicted here but the idea is in scattered locations, maybe even in boston, a few snow showers or snow squalls tomorrow. that will usher in the first stage of the 1-2 punch of arctic air. these snow showers will be scattered. they will be dissipating during the course of the night. i want to give you an idea of how this will break down in terms of temperature. as you look at boston, where there have

back into worcester county we could see up to two inches of snow before that changeover to sleet and freezing rain. this warm front lifting through overnight. once it goes to our north tomorrow, warmer air will flood on in and the winds will be strong as well. we have a high wind watch up tuesday evening. could see gusts to 50 miles per hour. temperatures. tonight we're starting out near 30 degrees but by tomorrow morning at 6:00 a.m., we're in the 40's. during the afternoon hours tomorrow, yeah, we are going into the 50's so a huge warm-up coming on in. it does come with that rain. tomorrow morning i don't expect a lot of wet weather for the morning commute. but there will be some showers around through lunchtime. it's once we get toward late day and evening you can see the slug of heavier rain punching on in here through 8:00 or 9:00 in the evening in the boston area. that's off shore. we're drying things out on wednesday. in total we are talking about clear it out on wednesday of one to maybe one-and-a-half inches of rain. again we've got a little bit of snow coming in in addition

it looks like what's happening out there in worcester county. there is plenty of rain down the coast here that can come to our area. the northwest trajectory, how far northwest it's going to go is still in question and that's one of the problems we're going to tackle with this forecast. here's the other one. mid-50s for a high today. it's freezing keene new hampshire. thing is, you're farther away from this storm up this way. you'll have the least amount of precipitation come in and therefore less amounts of snow even though you're cold enough for it. you get into worcester county, it's still 40 degrees. 47 in boston. 42 out at chatham and only cools down to 42 and 43 because of the otherwise you'd be warmer than that. this rain will continue to move on this evening. the hills of northeastern connecticut into worcester county, but collapsing toward 128 as soon as just after midnight. but look at the temperatures. you're not gonna get much snow up to 39 degrees. rides to the northshore but again warm enough you're not going to have much sticking

they expand at north port into worcester county. it will be a sharp cut-off that may have to be cut back in the morning. we'll see where the cut-off ends up depending on the tracked unlike last february we'll say everybody is getting a whole bunch of snow. those are actually easier to forecast than these marginal systems coming on by. a winter weather advisory along the coast and out to the cape and islands. 3 to 4-inches of snow is near the water and a little more on the western side of the city. there is the snow for tomorrow, 100% chance we're getting something out of it no matter what town you're in. and then temperatures around average for saturday and sunday. there will be snow flurries ahead of the milder air that will come on in. and i know the new hampshire primary is on tuesday. i know we've been talking a lot about it but we'll take more snow that's likely to work within that time frame that could impact things going on there. we'll take one storm at a time. first thing's first and that's tomorrow. make sure you're here w

last night, it was just plymouth and the cape and islands now essex, middlesex and portions of worcester county. let's look at snow totals, 4 to 7 inches likely anywhere from worcester over to boston, all the way up to the north shore, down to the south here, plymouth around barnstable counties these are the areas with ocean enhancement. 7 to 8 inches of snow. the farther west, much lower to 2 inches. our far western areas. let's talk winds as well. not too strong today. 11:00 tonight, begin to see northeast winds beginning to pick up 10, 20 miles per hours, out of the northeast, piling the water up against the shore line. but, also, again, enhancing the objection affection snow. look at the winds tomorrow, 40 in provincetown, 23 in boston as we wake up. monday afternoon, they don't go away. it's going to be a big storm and it's passing far to our south, but big enough to increase those snow. let me show you the high tide tomorrow. concerns. that's why a coastal flood watch county. splash over likely, road closures, water coming up into basement thes in flood prone areas tomorrow morning. an un

worcester county temperatures going to be general in the 30s to about 40 degrees. this is a snow band expecting tomorrow night. wide snow after mild day will coming toward us going to be cold enough by the evening for these to be flakes flying elevations expect according 20 of snow here through worcester during a 10 o'clock news and through boston during our love o'clock newscast tomorrow night not tonight for tomorrow night this all slides offshore notice mild air changing snowflakes to raindrops at times.in southern new england. rain snow situation by then and just showers first batch of snow will be the one that's going to produce any kind of accumulation not very much hour by hour takes you through midnight tomorrow night notice a half inch or so in boston nearly an inch and worcester getting an inch overnight by 5 o'clock in the morning that wouldn't be it couple of inches in the higher elevations in central new england perhaps as many as three inches in northern host new england and the scare areas out that way. seven day forecast keeps your weekend and view

it's a cold start through worcester county in the lower to middle teens and upper teens to near 20. duxbury at 23 degrees. borne coming in at 24 degrees. so it's a cool start, but this is the coldest air we'll see over next few days. we have a lot of sunshine this morning once that sun does rise, although more clouds down through the cape and down through coastal plymouth county at this hour. us. so we'll get that sunshine this morning and clouds increasing as we work into the afternoon. that's the leading edge of the milder air that's going to work in from both on saturday and sunday, and you can see it back through the midwest. look at this. this time of the morning, 65 chicago, and you take a bigger picture of what we expect this afternoon. 71 in st. louis. it won't be 71 degrees over the weekend, but we can get enter lower 50s back through detroit and over to pittsburgh. you note it's relatively quiet across the midwest. i don't expect any big storms over the weekend, although a couple nuisance-type fronts working on inch one will be tonight, a couple scattered snow showers out

it to six certainly going snow won't stick you go inland interior southern new england factor worcester county 4 to 6 inches sharp cut off to the north north of the city of forster was in the 45 inch range we do for north of worcester topping off to one or two to northern worcester county in southern new hampshire and lesser amounts father north and west. with a late changeover cape cod i have you on one to three as well watch that changeover happening overnight which is to a morning to place not include those coastal areas does not include cape cod right now with the south coast but the reasons i was telling you i agree with that northern worcester county certainly possible getting into the windstorm range with six inches or more but right now forecasting that for you at least north of the city posted by very much clearly if you're worcester you could be right near that line temperatures just so warm right now watch how they fall tonight this is where the changeover will happen from the 40s and into the 30s the teacher all the way to the morning 5 o'clock in the morning it's just cold enough

sliver of shower activity, i'd say mid to late morning, 9:00, 10:00 a.m., we'll skirt by northern worcester county up into southern new hampshire. if temperatures are close to freezing still, there may be one or two in far northern worcester hampshire that see freezing rain. that's it for any ice out there. this is going to be an all rain afternoon the steadier rain developing. southern new hampshire out through worcester county first. early in the afternoon, then between 2:00 and 4:00 pushes toward the boston area. that will ensure a wet evening commute for pretty much all of us. although the cape and the islands, you still may be missing out on some of the rain here by late this afternoon. the timing of the temperatures, look at the surge in the mild air. yes, that's 59 degrees at 9:00 p.m. if we hit 59 degrees in the city of boston, that will be good enough to tie the record high. again, these upper 50s won't arrive until this evening, but it's a slow and steady process to get the mild air in here. i do expect widespread low to mid-50s by late this afternoon. the southerly wind increasing, too,

however, still some patches of freezing drizzle and freezing rain across worcester county. worcester up into fitchburg, outer route 2 back into athol. that's the area i do expect some icy spots on the secondary roads and the driveways through mid to late morning at least. otherwise scattered showers, areas of fog and drizzle throughout the day. temperatures trending to the milder side by this evening, a lot of us well into the 40s if not lower 50s showing up across southeastern mass. the theme this evening and overnight tonight will be the downpour, the strong southerly winds and the mild air all of us surging into the 50s overnight tonight, and starting off tomorrow morning. about 24 hours to go with this system before we begin to dry it out. the weekend overall looking good right now, more on that seven-day forecast ahead. >> sarah: time now for fast track traffic with danielle gersh. >> danielle: thanks, sarah. here's a look at 39 through somerville headed into boston. this is a very slow drive back to 128. let's go to the maps. now you can see all red from 128 into boston on 93 s

but, i am following snow showers off to the west. from worcester county on toward middlesex county now, just about to get to townsend. fitchburg and princeton all involved in this line of snow showers. we also have a couple around oxford. also one around douglas. most of these are light but for very brief moments it can come down harder and we've also been following this one, newberry down a little snow and rain mixed in. here's the wider view. aerial coverage is diminishing for the most part. a lot of times it get stuck in the berkshires. that could happen. the cold we're talking about is two stages. the first one moves in tomorrow afternoon and tomorrow night and into friday. you'll notice the difference. you can see it's down to 12 in minneapolis. seven in sault sainte marie. the second part of this, though, that's locked up to the north. further, but not locked. it's ready to be unleashed to the south and that subzero air for at least a fair part of this upcoming weekend. so as we check out the temperatures to expect, look at saturday afternoon around 1:00. 20 in boston. point it j

middle 30' s out of worcester county. beverly, 34. middle 30' worcester temperature is with sunshine. the clouds are coming in. by midnight, there will be snow flying. it will be light, but things are changing dramatically varied we have sunshine now, but to the advancing. they will get the car this afternoon. snow out of new york state. at band of snow is ahead of the warm frontal boundary. it is the leading edge of a warmer air mass. toward cincinnati, it is 61. 71 in st. louis. that will try to work in as the warm front crosses the area. the wind will continue out of the south all night. they will not come up much, but with the clouds in the wind out of the south, the temperatures tonight are not far from where they are now. upper 20' s and lower 30' s. i 10:00 this evening, there is we will see this makes with a coast line before the sun comes up tomorrow. it is not a big deal, but may be enough to coat the ground. into northern new england, there could be a few inches of snow. frontal boundary. when that gets north, we will have

and by lunchtime today, some steady rain, western worcester county, enter southern new hampshire, but still just some spotty showers around into the city of boston. so the best chance in boston of getting rain not until mid-afternoon through the evening hours and we'll continue to see that rain this evening, maybe even a rumble of thunder as the warm air works in and some downpours work on in, as well. half an inch to an inch of rain. should dry out for a while tomorrow and there may be a little rain early on friday morning down through southeastern mass. getting the kids ready for school? dry start out there. temperatures generally running lower to middle 30s, climbing into the low 50s by final bell. we'll need the rain ger later this afternoon. more on the forecast as "today in new england" starts right now. >> christa: crisscrossing new hampshire with six days to go before the primary. the presidential candidates are turning their attention to the granite state, and we're live along the campaign trail today.

pike and southern worcester county as well. we expect that rain to transition over to heavy, wet snow as we go through the late overnight hours tonight. more specifically, early tomorrow morning. hard the believe. right? 54 degrees in boston right now. 37 in buffalo. 21 in green bay. this is the cold air that is going to be pushing in toward new england overnight tonight. as essentially, a front gets stalled out. just to the east of us. along that front, there is a couple of waves of low pressure riding along it. this will ensure we get precipitation late overnight tonight into the day tomorrow. now, what will happen is when the cold enough air reaches us, the rain that we get beginning to break out by 9:00, 10:00, midnight tonight will transition over to snow. between about 3:00 and 5:00 in the morning. from worcester into the city of boston. worcester first. then toward boston. then eventually, down through the south shore by about 7:00 in the morning. the cape and the islands, probably between about 8:00 and 10:00 in the mor

as cold as 15 below in orange out in worcester county so it is a cold start this morning. temperatures do come up into the teens though by noontime. 20's this afternoon. the wind turn to the south. they'll stay light today but the clouds are thickening up. by this evening we'll be dealing with a little burst of snoaf changing to sleet, freezing rain. winter weather advisory up. going to get a little bit messy. there's a warm front to our south lifting north ward. snow is breaking out around d.c. right now. we're going to watch that lift north ward. first comes the clouds around noontime. those thicken up. notice what happens by 7:00 this evening. yes, snow is breaking out across in between 4:00 and 8:00 p.m. during the evening commute there will be snow around. the road surfaces are so cold that it's going to stick very quickly and it's going to become very slippery pretty fast. it will turn to a mix and then eventually rain. you can see that happening as the warmer air invades before midnight in boston tovment the north and west this pink area here from the merrimack vall

we have had some rain, some parts of northern worcester county, southern new hampshire. all of that taking the form of southern -- rain. most of it along the mass pike. chooses not seen much of it. boston south, mid and upper-40' s. in raleigh, north carolina, and that warm air mass is feeding in a head of the frontal boundary, temperatures will climb. we will be warmer at midnight tonight than it is right now. the warmth is coming in, but it rain. the intensity starts to increase and through the evening commute we have the potential for also the potential for a little starts to clear out. we would talk about how much to expect and take you through the rest of the weekend into the weekend coming up. emily: sounds good. thank you. now commitment 2016 -- donald in iowa, claiming ted cruz stole the caucus win. trump posted several tweets this morning claiming cruz put out a release that said gop contender ben carson was dropping out of the race, urging caucus voters to give their support to cruz. he also claims cruz sent out voter violation certificates to thousands of vote

meantime paying attention to a winter storm, expanded to include all of eastern mass and southern worcester county, at 7:00 dole morning and goes until 7:00 on tuesday morning. we are concerned about the possibility of moderate coastal flooding for the south shore and the cape. painly around the the time of high tide tomorrow morning and early tomorrow afternoon. 31 in boston, 37 in p-town and vineyard, most below the freezing marks, so do look out for a patch or two of ice in the short term. hard lay included in the sky now and sunshine, and light southwesterly winds will help get temperatures up to the low 40s. fairly mild sunny weather, this will be the calm before the you may see rain and snow begin very late tonight for the cape than islands and may begin as rain for the nantucket and vin yaird.the rest of us will wait million late morning hourance i will tuck about how much i think we'll get coming up. >> two suspects in the hospital, it happened in lowell. police were on their way to a home invasion when they got there they were confronted bay hand with a gun. they shot the man twice. a sec

that is extended merrimack valley, worcester county, up into new hampshire it's winter weather advisory and because of the shift in the track warmer air is going to linger from today down along the south coast and the cape. lighter snowfall tallies compared to what we're thinking this morning. that is why you have a winter weather advisory. current temperatures that we've in the 50s and a half a foot of snow is on the way tomorrow. but right now boston at 54. norwood at 55. there has been a cool front that came through southern new england early this has been slow to arrive because of the storm system. peace going to -- it's going to slow the arrival down and the storm system will ride up along this front and in doing so will create its own cold air. so the that is the challenge with the forecast. thetimeline just after midnight tonight the storm begins as rain because we're in the 50s. then you notice storm timeline as we advance it you see it changes to snow in the city. western suburbs, by 4:00 am tomorrow morning and during the 7:00 am commute timeline, we're talking about wide spre

in worcester county, worcester is 44 , milford at 43 . metro west tomorrow dedham at 44 holliston you are at 43 . here on the south shore middleboro 44 new bedford at 45 and taunton at 44 coming up tomorrow afternoon. now here's that seven-day forecast it takes you right through the next few days. look what happens on wednesday. there's going to be some precipitation moving in on wednesday. we talked about how it's going to be mild again into the mid-50s on wednesday. that's coming with a trade-off. it will be a front that comes by in the morning. then here comes the rain that takes you through lunchtime. rain starting to make its way through worcester county. light at first then heavier blocks into the evening. so your evening commute figures to be very wet out there in worcester county. then pushes offshore late at night on wednesday into early thursday morning when with very that to contend with coming up. but beyond that it also cools down starting up friday into the upcoming weekend. your weekend is always in view. here 38 on saturda

and the zero line is now moving into portions of worcester county. orange now is 1 below zero. so as you can see, so we're right in the shaft of this axis of real chill coming out of the arctic and right into new england for now and fortunately not going to be around for too long but it's going to be fast and furious. and it's going to be meaning something as we go through tonight. the all-time low ever in boston was 18 below back in february 1934. the last 550 years, 7 below in january of 2004 and last ten years the coldest in boston was last year. we never really actually had any individual record low while it got down to 3 below zero. the last time we had a record low in boston was way back in 1967 in terms of the month of february. i think it's going to go down to a record low of 12 below tonight in worcester and i predict it's going to be 6, 7 below in boston and it's going to go down lower than the record low for tomorrow. so make it the cold valentine's day on record. why should temperatures as we go through the night now it will be mostly clear but snow showers in the o

patchy flurries breaking out through worcester county, easing in toward metro west. we'll continue to see patchy light snow and flurries this morning. we have a risk of heavier snow showers and squalls occasionally rolling through this afternoon. it will be much like a springtime or summertime pattern where they're hit or miss and you get a brief burst of snow instead of rain coming own down. this could drop locally a coating to an inch of snow, maybe one or two towns across northern worcester county, the higher train of northwestern rhode island coming in an inch and a half or two inches of snow, generally speaking, about a coaching to an inch. temperatures today, lower to middle 30s this afternoon. seasonably cold. very cold, in fact, near record cold as we get into the weekend. windshield values minus 20 if not minus 25 to 30 at times late overnight saturday into sunday morning. actual air temperatures going below zero, even just below zero in the city of boston. widespread minus 5 to minus 10 in a lot of the suburbs kicking off valentine's day. >> we're following

out worcester county the first flakes doctor mixon and they will be wet and mushy snowflakes heavy stuff it's hard to move because temperatures have been in the 50s still in the 40s back there through worcester county that's no rain line collapses toward austin by 2:30 am and then into the city right on the cusp 4:30 a.m. that pink line is actually just outside of the city on the map it's going to be that close to call to see when the snow is going to fall in boston wet roads in and around boston for beginning it's knowing to take a while for it to start to stick to the roadways. it's going to be sticking back here in worcester lapses down cape cod by 9 o'clock and it continues to snow into the early afternoon before pulls on out of here as far as now amounts acting right now 4 to 6 inches of snow outside of boston to worcester including the city of worcester part of the south shore away from the coast line boston on the cusp probably about three or four inches of snow right now or line can go either way. i'll keep tracking that rain moving right now in the snow changeover tonight. >> in
