May Nor'easter to Bring Rain to New England Before Memorial Day

A nor'easter, a storm system that typically impacts the Northeast during the fall and winter months, is forecast to bring rain and wind to New England this week. The storm is expected to arrive on Thursday, bringing with it the potential for travel delays as people begin their Memorial Day weekend.

While the storm is not expected to bring snow, the combination of rain and wind will create conditions that feel more like autumn than late spring. Temperatures are expected to remain relatively mild, but the rain will make it feel cooler.

Officials are advising residents to monitor weather forecasts and take precautions as needed. Motorists should be prepared for reduced visibility and potential flooding on roadways. Outdoor activities may be affected, and those planning to spend time outside should dress appropriately for wet and windy conditions.
