Plowable snow returns to Massachusetts Tuesday. Maps show who might get the most.
Read Original Source
There is snow falling in Massachusetts Tuesday and it could be plowable in some towns, but the Boston area won't see much. The National Weather Service has issued Winter Storm Warnings in southern New Hampshire, Maine and Vermont as well as in elevated areas in Massachusetts. Those areas include the Berkshires and Worcester Hills. A Winter Storm Warning is issued in areas where there is a significant chance of 6 inches or more of snow accumulation.
AI Summary
Main Idea: The National Weather Service says a one-day winter storm will bring mostly rain to eastern Massachusetts Tuesday, but some inland and higher areas could get plowable snow.
Key Points:
- Winter Storm Warnings are in effect for parts of southern New England, including the Berkshires and Worcester Hills, where 6 inches or more could fall.
- Most of eastern Massachusetts, including Boston, should see rain for much of the day before a late shift to wet snow.
- The heaviest snow is expected northwest of Route 495, while the coast, Cape Cod, and the Islands should get little snow or mainly rain.
- The storm should not bring major coastal damage, power outages, or flooding, but cold air later this week could bring the first below-zero feels-like temperatures of the season.
Impact on the People
Negative Impact
Snow and heavy rain can make Tuesday travel slow and dangerous, especially north and west of Route 495, and can disrupt commutes and local business activity.
Positive Impact
The National Weather Service warnings give households and workers time to prepare for winter roads and very cold weather later in the week.
