Snow has arrived this morning and will continue to spread over southern New England today. Snow is expected to end mid-late morning towards western New England, then between 4-7 PM for eastern MA and RI. Showers may linger through the evening over the Cape and Nantucket. pic.twitter.com/mk2Z0LHmjC

Snow to start our Saturday, mainly light for now, but seeing some enhancement with heavier snow across the north shore and Cape Ann and across RI. Expecting more bands to push in mid morning & into the afternoon leading to difficult travel! All the details on @wbz this morning! pic.twitter.com/F2CNuHqZEQ

Estimating how much snow will fall on Saturday is tricky. There may be some localized heavier bands over Cape Ann. Ocean effect snow over the Cape Saturday night and some ocean enhancement along the South Shore. It will snow lightly most of the day. Tapering by evening. pic.twitter.com/j7KXrADpSO

UPDATED SNOW MAP: With snow already falling and expected to continue throughout the day, expect a good portion of our area to see 3-6" of snow. The highest totals will fall across the North Shore with 6-10" of snow. pic.twitter.com/jNRGQPbaum

Still mostly 2-5", but some area likely to see up to 8". I think while more not impossible, it is less likely. Placing the band exactly correctly is meteorologically very difficult so know that it is most likely in the zone I outlined, but could shift during the day. #Boston pic.twitter.com/kdmBjLCKYr
