An area of low pressure will head east from the Great Lakes region today, redeveloping off the Mid-Atlantic Coast on Wednesday, which will bring the potential for several inches of snow to portions of the region late tonight into Wednesday afternoon.
Winter storm warnings and advisories have been issued around the region in anticipation of this snowfall.
Precipitation type is uncertain along and southeast of the Boston-Providence Corridor, where maritime air pushes onshore.
Snow starts flying late Tuesday night from south to north across the area, increasing in intensity by tomorrow morning.
