Special Weather Statement issued March 4 at 6:05AM EST by NWS Boston/Norton MA

Effective: Wed March 4, 2026, 6:05 AM
Expires: Wed March 4, 2026, 9:00 AM

Residual moisture, light winds and the cold ground from our recent weather will be favorable for the formation of black ice this morning. This may also be accompanied by some freezing fog . Motorists traveling early Wednesday morning should allow extra time to reach their destination and be prepared for black ice. Untreated walkways and parking lots may also become very slippery for pedestrians. Temperatures should rise above freezing by mid- late Wednesday morning alleviating any black ice issues.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
