[Wet Snow/Power Outage Concern Saturday] The rain will turn into wet snow in most of the region Sat. Dense, wet snow is expected, but the exact location still needs to be fine-tuned. The risk of scattered power outages and some fallen wood is the highest risk in the Central / NE region. pic.twitter.com/n0IKL82fcK

Tomorrow there will be 40-50 mph winds along the coast. Few 50+ gusts of wind are possible on the south coast of the coast. Fortunately, the tides are not astronomically high and strong land winds do not last. pic.twitter.com/2UQN9TbJk2
