Good morning everyone! We just wanted to let you know that we have increased snowfall totals into the 2-4" range for portions of central and eastern MA as well as much of Rhode Island. Therefore...we have issued a Winter Weather Advisory through tonight for much of this region including the Boston to Providence corridor. We do expect snow to expand in coverage through the afternoon and persist into the evening before things begin to wind down after midnight. Temperatures just southeast of the Boston to Providence corridor were above freezing allowing for some light rain. It will get colder later this afternoon and especially by this evening allowing for a change to snow. Untreated roads may become snow covered and slippery especially for the evening commute as temperatures drop. Attached is the graphic depicting our Winter Weather Advisory as well as our latest snowfall forecast. Thank You: Meteorologists: Hayden Frank and Bryce Williams If you have any questions or would like more information, please don't hesitate to contact us.
