URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE
National Weather Service Taunton MA
504 AM EST Mon Dec 5 2005
A winter storm is expected to impact Southeastern New England late tonight into Tuesday
Low pressure is expected to reach the coast of the Carolinas this evening, then strengthen as it passes southeast of Nantucket Tuesday. This winter storm has the potential to bring heavy snow and strong winds to Rhode Island and southeast Massachusetts, including the Providence to Boston corridor.
Keep in mind there is still some uncertainty in the forecast track of this storm. It is still possible that it will track closer to Southern New England, which would bring heavy snowfall farther inland and impact more of the region. There is a lower chance that the storm will track farther offshore, resulting in less snowfall than currently expected.
