7Weather- A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for areas outside of 128 (purple color). There could be slick travel as we approach sunset. A Winter Storm Warning is in effect for southern New Hampshire where precipitation is expected to stay as snow and where we will see the most accumulation from this system of 4″-6″ of snow.
Areas along the coast will see a brief wintry mix, and then the precipitation changes to a cold rain. This includes all of southeast Massachusetts and areas along the the coast (Boston and up into the North Shore). There will likely be a coating along 128 and up I-95 before a switchover to mainly rain.
Worcester likely gets about 1″ of snow before the changing over to sleet and rain, and Fitchburg will be around 2″ of snow. Locations right along the MA/NH line fall under 2″-4″ of snow, and the areas north are under 4″-6″. Methuen, Pepperell, and Ashburnham are forecast to get 2″-4″ of snow. Milford, NH will likely be near 4″ and Manchester, NH closer to 6″ of snow.
