Storm shuts down libraries, museums, businesses for the day
Parts of the Greater Boston area could see up to 18 inches of snow Tuesday, prompting businesses, libraries, and other institutions around the region to close due to the weather.
State and weather officials are urging people to stay off the roads if they can, and Boston Mayor Marty Walsh announced Monday the city’s public schools and libraries would be closed. Cambridge also closed its public schools and libraries.

Thinking you’ll head out for a bite, do some shopping, or enjoy the weather with a winter activity like ice skating? You should still plan ahead. The snow is affecting operating hours for some food vendors and restaurants, and prompting some businesses to shut down for the day.
