Weather Forecast: A Week of Ups & Downs with Snow Over Weekend

By |

Watertown residents should prepare for a classic February weather pattern with plenty of ups and downs. After a quiet end to the week, all eyes are on a winter storm set to arrive late Saturday night, bringing a good chance for plowable snowfall across the area. While trends are favoring mostly snow, there’s still a small chance for some sleet or freezing rain to mix in.

Watertown residents should prepare for an active weather pattern as we close out January and head into the first week of February.

We’re keeping a close eye on a storm system approaching from the west, which looks increasingly likely to bring some precipitation during the day. The biggest question remains what kind — rain, snow, sleet, or even freezing rain could all be in the mix depending on how much warmer air pushes in.
