[ Friday, Feb. 7, 2003 ]
A winter storm is in progress across the Commonwealth. Snow began to fall last evening and will continue through this afternoon, with the greatest accumulations occuring in the southeast. Snow should end sometime this afternoon. Temperatures will once again turn colder behind this system. Tomorrow will see a break in the precipitation as high pressure builds over the region. This high won’t stick around for long as a series of weak disturbances will ripple through the Northeast, bringing the chance for some scattered snow showers.
