Frigid conditions are expected to worsen in Massachusetts on Tuesday night, with temperatures between 5 and 15 degrees and wind chills making it feel even colder. Worcester, Pittsfield, and Great Barrington are expected to see lows in the single digits with wind chills between minus 10 and minus 5 degrees. The National Weather Service has not issued a Cold Weather Advisory, but Boston Mayor Michelle Wu has urged residents to take precautions, especially those at risk of hypothermia and frostbite.
Wednesday should see drier conditions with temperatures in the mid- to low 20s, colder than usual for February in Massachusetts. A system could bring up to 3 inches of snow to the Cape and Nantucket on Thursday evening, with a potential for 1 inch along the I-95 corridor between Providence and Boston. Another blast of cold air is expected for the weekend, with temperatures rising into the high 30s and low 40s.
Looking ahead to next week, forecasters are uncertain about a potential storm that could bring a wintry mix between Monday and Tuesday. Residents are advised to stay updated on the weather forecast in the coming days. If anyone sees individuals in unsafe conditions due to the extreme weather, they are encouraged to call 911 to ensure their safety.
