Presidents Day Winter Advisory For Framingham, MetroWest

The National Weather Service in Boston has issued a winter weather advisory for MetroWest, including Framingham, for Presidents Day from 3 p.m. until 6 a.m. Tuesday.

Temperatures at 5 a.m. were still below 0 (minus 7), not counting the wind chill on Monday.

Snow is only expected to be a maximum of 1 to 3 inches, but the storm is also expected to bring sleet and freezing rain. The snow is expected between 4 and 8 p.m. on Monday.

Then the snow will transition to sleet and freezing rain. By Tuesday morning at daybreak, the freezing rain will transition to rain, but isolated pockets of freezing rain could continue through the rest of Tuesday morning.

The freezing rain means black ice conditions could exist.

And fickle Mother Nature will bring 50 degree temperatures, wind, and rain for Tuesday, Feb. 16.
