Bitter Blast, Snow Back For Big Game Weekend: See How Cold It Will Get In RI

Some of the coldest air of a very harsh winter will hammer Rhode Island this weekend as fans across New England make their final preparations for the big game on Sunday night.

The cold will be preceded by snow Friday night as the temperatures drop and about a half inch of snow falls across the region, according to the National Weather Service.

The slight moderation in the punishing cold from earlier this week is essentially over, with a high on Thursday near degrees and a northwest wind of 5 to 9 mph.

Friday will be a similar day with a high near 30 but calmer winds.
