We’re on a WEATHER ALERT from theBoston 25 Weather Team due to winter storm warnings, watches, and advisories in our area.
“Travel could be very difficult. The hazardous conditionscould impact the Tuesday morning and evening commutes,” the National Weather Service wrote in a storm advisory.
On Monday afternoon, the National Weather Service upgraded posted watches to warnings in some areas.
In a midmorning update on Monday, Boston 25 Meteroloigist Shiri Spear updated her expected snowfall totals because the storm was “trending later and milder.”

According to Spear’s latest snow map, the best chance for accumulation will be at elevations and points to the north. There is a possibility for a coating of snow in Boston but it won’t be until the tailend of the storm.
The Boston 25 Weather Team initially called for snow with totals in the range of 3 to 7 inches for interior towns north and west of I-495. Those areas will now likely see 1-3 inches.
Northern Massachusetts towns along the New Hampshire and Vermont borders could see 3-7 inches of snow, while northern New England is also in for up to 7 inches.
The South Shore, South Coast, and Cape Cod and the Islands will likely see just plain rain due to warmer temperatures.
