It now appears that the heaviest snow will be from Boston and points south, as the storm has shifted south slightly. To the north of Boston amounts will drop off dramatically. I expect the snow to start between 9 and 930 AM in Boston, and get heavy by early afternoon. Once the snow starts falling the temps will start dropping. However, the city streets may just be wet for a time.
Alerts:
A Winter Storm Warning in effect for all of eastern Mass. except for the north shore.
A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for north of Worcester and the north shore.
A High Wind Warning is in effect for the Cape and Islands for gusts to 60 MPH!
A Hurricane Wind Warning is in effect for the open waters as winds will be over 75 MPH!
Timeline: For Today
930 AM: Snowing in Boston.
4 PM- 9PM: The height of the storm. Wind-driven Heavy snow. Except rain on the cape for a time, before ending as snow.
After 9 PM: Snow showers
Amounts: Slightly less in Boston. (Town details in last blog)
10-14: Interior SE mass.
6-10: A line from Boston to Worcester along the pike. Also the South Shore. About 8 inches in JP. Also includes the lower cape.
