Still fine tuning the snowfall amounts with the arrival of new model data. No major changes, just a slight shift westward of higher snow amounts. This has neces...sitated expanding the warning a bit as well. Light snow will spread northward across the region this morning and afternoon. Models are in pretty good agreement that snowfall rates will really pick up after 3 or 4pm. These higher rates should last through the evening hours and then taper off after midnight as the storm moves out to sea. Everyone stay safe out there. See more
