A powerful system will track into the Canadian Maritimes overnight Saturday into Sunday after leaving portions of western and northern New England under 6-12” of snow.
We’ll see colder air flowing into New England Saturday night along with a northwest wind gusting over 40 mph at times.
A changeover to snow is also likely from west to east this evening with a coating to an inch or so south, more possible across the higher terrain of southern New England, with the highest amounts across Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine.
Precipitation will slowly cut off late Saturday night with northern Maine holding onto the last bursts of snow through after midnight.
