This is great video. A snow storm made roads treacherous and even led to a highway closure. In all, about 15 to 25 inches of snow was dumped on part of the north cascades. And thats not all.

In worcester, 7. 5 inches snow. There really is no snow in this sevenday forecast. So were going to have to wait just a touch longer. This morning we are waking up to some patchy, dense fog as well as some patchy black ice. You want to be careful out there on the roads as temperatures have dropped well below freezing in spots. Thats leading to some slick spots out there. Now the warm trend continues for today. And even into tomorrow. And then were watching an ocean storm for tuesday. The latest models shifting it farther off shore which means not everyone is going to benefit from some muchneeded rain. I want to show you these visibilities though. You can see were going to have problems down around chatham to falmouth now where youre seeing zeromile visibility there and then up towards parts of orange where you see visibles down you folks in beverly. So be aware of that. If youre headed out first thing. And then you have to also talk about some black ice because where temperatures are below the freezing mark in lawrence and beverly and even orange where youre seeing that fog, you could be having some patchy black ice out there this morning. The other thing to talk about is just how cool it is this morning but we are going to warm up very quickly. So highs today going to climb into the low to mid 50s. A few upper 50s on the map, i think, especially the south shore, the cape and the islands. I dont think were necessarily going to get to 60 but we could be pretty close in some spots. Well see a lot of sunshine those winds will be out of the south and west at about 510 so if you are headed out, the patriots game today, theyre taking on the eagles at Gillette Stadium at 4 25, 60 degrees by kickoff but those numbers will be dropping into the 40s as that sun sets. It will be set at game time tonight. As for the low temperatures tonight we drop back into the 20s and 30s in most spots. Cape and the islands holding in the 40s overnight with clear skies. And then tomorrow we do it all over again. Its another mild day. Well have temperatures in the low to mid 50s and a lot of sunshine but notice that wind does shift from the west to the north and west. Notice pittsfield only tops out at 45 degrees. Thats because this cold front on its way in as well as this area of low pressure were going to watch. Now High Pressure for us is dominating our weather this weekend. Thats why we are dry both sunday and monday. But once we get to tuesday i do put a medium chance of some rain coming through. Im going to show you that on the future cast. So as we go towards monday we are still mild. Here comes this backdpoor kind of cold front coming on in and then we watch this area of low pressure but notice the track is taking it farther off shore. So i do think if anyone is going to see any rain from this one, its really going to be the cape and the islands. However, were going to have to watch that track really carefully because as of right now even though its farther off shore, we have to watch the if it does, that could get more of us involve ed with some rain. If it starts early enough even with mixed precipitation to start because temperatures will be below the freezing mark on tuesday in the morning hours. We stay cool in the 40s through wednesday and then warm back up in the 50s by the end of the week. Frank and karen. Frank thanks a lot, danielle. Time now is 5 15.
