The afternoon gets cloudier with time as our next winter storm arrives. The storm will likely start just after sunset around 8 p.m. and ramp up earlier in the morning Sunday. Winter storm watches have already been issued for Saturday evening through Sunday afternoon for much of New England.
Intense bands of snow will set up through MetroWest and central Massachusetts, and along the Massachusetts Turnpike. The 1-5 a.m. timeframe is when the bulk of the snow occurs.

As it stands right now, most locations will pick up 5-8 inches of snow. While it’s not a guarantee, we are watching for the potential of higher totals through central Massachusetts. Temperatures will be marginal (near 30 degrees), but we do think most of this will be a heavier, pasty snow.
Unlike this past Thursday’s storm, timing will be in favor of snow lovers, as this will occur during the colder point of the day, away from the sun’s radiation.
For those with plans to watch the Big Game, roads should be much more improved by the evening before kickoff.
