Late-Season Winding Down Across New England

April 16, 2021
UPDATED by WeatherBug Meteorologists
A Spring nor’easter is winding down across New England, bringing a few more burst of wet mountain snow and coastal rain.
 
This coastal system, located just off Cape Cod late Friday afternoon, will slowly move away from New England tonight and early Sunday. This system, having access to colder air from Canada, has produced wet snow across interior New England today. It will still be able to produce a couple more inches of wet snow across the mountains of New Hampshire and western Maine tonight and into early Saturday.

Winter Storm Warnings remain in effect across parts of western Massachusetts, southern Vermont, northern New Hampshire, and western Maine.

A cold rain will fall along the coast, with some wet snowflakes mixing in with the raindrops.
 
Many areas across the Green and White Mountains of Vermont and New Hampshire into the Berkshires of western Massachusetts and the Catskills and Adirondacks of New York received several inches of snow, with higher elevations spots receiving measuring more than 6 inches snow. 
 
This will be a thick, heavy snow capable of snapping tree branches and causing power outages.
The rain and snow will diminish as the storm moves away from New England on Saturday.
 
If you live in or plan to travel through the higher terrain of New England through early Saturday, plan for difficult driving conditions. Keep an extra flashlight, food and water in your vehicle in case of emergency. Have candles or fuel for a back-up generator to prepare for power outages.
