BOSTON (WHDH) - A winter storm is moving through Massachusetts on Friday, bringing with it freezing rain, sleet and dangerous road conditions.

A winter storm warning is in effect in Northern Berkshire County until 8 p.m.

The remainder of the state, excluding Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket, is under a winter weather advisory until 10 p.m.

Frigid air is moving down into the region from the northwest, causing rain and sleet to freeze. Sloppy slush that accumulates will turn solid as a rock by midnight as temperatures dip.

The majority of the Bay State is projected to get an icy coating throughout the day and into the evening.

Several inches of sleet is expected across Northern Mass.

The Mass. Department of Transportation is urging people to stay off the roadways and if they must travel, to do so with extreme caution. Hundreds of crashes were reported across the state.

Patchy, freezing drizzle and sleet is projected to linger into the late evening before drying out overnight.

The weekend is slated to be dry and cold with high temperatures in the 20s.
