New England maps show how much snow or rain our region could see

Two weak clipper systems are set to race across New England late Tuesday into Wednesday, bringing another round of snow, this time light showers, mainly up north in New Hampshire, Maine, and Vermont.

With not as much energy in the atmosphere, these minor storm systems are expected to produce about 1 to 2 inches up north, with the higher elevations possibly seeing up to 4 inches.

“It looks like it’s going to be a light system, but some of the snow may occur during Wednesday’s morning commute,” said Francis Tarasiewicz, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service.

The snow will most likely be the last one of January, and the coming week otherwise looks clear, Tarasiewicz said.

Boston is set to end the month 1.9 degrees colder, on average, than normal, NWS Boston posted to X Thursday. December was 0.4 degrees colder than normal. This marks the first time two back-to-back months had colder average temperatures than normal since April and May of 2020, according to NWS Boston.

It’s still early, but these maps show the systems’ possible development:

“This track usually means very little precipitation. If you want a storm of significance the clipper has to go south,” says Globe meteorologist Dave Epstein.

Cold dry weekend ahead. Next chance of any precipitation comes Wednesday as a clipper moves to our north. This track usually means very little precipitation. If you want a storm of significance the clipper has to go south. pic.twitter.com/yYyTYsJPDg
