BOSTON (WHDH) - Residents are bracing for even more snow across New England after two storms in three days have covered the region with snow and ice.
Following Thursday’s blizzard that dumped as much as 20 inches in some regions, an additional coating of snow came in the form of an overnight storm. While most areas saw just a coating to an inch or two, areas like Melrose saw as much as 4 additional inches of snow.
The rest of the weekend will give a brief respite from the snow until Sunday evening.
