Snow is already flying across parts of New England this morning and will expand through midday. Expect a lull/light intensity mid-afternoon, then the heaviest burst arrives ~5 PM to midnight, when snowfall may peak near 1″/hr in bands. The storm slides south/east of Nantucket overnight and exits early Monday – western areas taper ~5–7 AM, eastern areas ~7–9 AM (a touch later for a few coastal pockets). No wind or coastal issues with this one.
Interior/north: colder 20s = fluffier accumulation.
Eastern & far SE MA (incl. Boston/Merrimack Valley): wetter/pastier snow.
South Coast/Cape/Islands: brief rain mix at times; totals trimmed a bit on Nantucket.
Broad 2–4″ to 4–6″ across southern & eastern New England; we’ve dragged 4–6″ farther north & west into parts of SNE.
Widespread 3–6″ now likely for many in the south/east.
Locally higher where evening bands park.
Lighter north (coating to 2″).
Late AM–midday: coverage fills in; light/moderate.
Mid-afternoon: brief easing in spots.
5 PM–midnight: peak rates (up to ~1″/hr in bands).
Pre-dawn Mon: taper west→east; stragglers offshore after daybreak.
Tailgating mid-30s → low-30s with light snow. Steadier/heavier snow more likely second half. No wind/coastal concerns—just plan for slick travel home.
