And that rain snow line has been coming inside 128 now so you get near andover up 93 and we have been mixing with wet snow neighbors back into the merrimack valley. In boston 37 at Logan Airport and get just west of town inside 128 we are seeing some of the wet snowflakes mixed in and it happens when the precipitation starts to come down harder. We are seeing some of the rain transition over to snow. Back down near franklin seeing some of the snow mix in as well. That will continue to press south and east from brockton back up to quincy over the next lets say hour and 20 minutes or so. North and west of that, its all snow and coming down lighta at light clip and rain in southeastern massachusetts. So that rain snow line will continue to work south and east and Winter Weather advisories and winter storm warnings that are up until 3 p. M. This afternoon. The winter storm warning does providence. Its widespread plowable commute. Rain changing to snow between widespread 4 to 8 inches for many of us and because of the consistency of the snow heavy and wet, there may be isolated outages that result in the heaviest areas of 5,6, 7inch.

So the snow continues in boston and taunton and plymouth through the afternoon but slowly tapers off from west to east late this afternoon. That evening commute should be few lingering flurries not out of the question on the cape and islands from 5 to 7 p. M. All clear overnight and watch out for icy patches as we get into your weekend forecast. Snow today 4 to 8 inches in boston and inside 495 outside 495, 2 to 4 inch rain.

But that rain snow line watch what happens presses south over the next our and can be hour and a half hour and a half and takes a little longer on the mid and outer cape to late morning to change over and continues to snow right on through the early afternoon. So we have slowed down the timing ever so slightly until about 2 00 we wrap up the snow in worcester and at 3 in the boston takes a little bit longer in the cape until about 5 30 or is 6. But intensity will taper off and clearing so things will freeze up heading into overnight tonight. No change in the snow accumulation map. 4 to 8 inches a wet pasty snow.

It is a messy commute on this troy morning and jon keller wants to make sure you get to work in a safe and timely manner. We all do right so he put together a check list of things to do before you hit the road. Reporter good morning. Wait, what is that stuff outside your window . Why its snow. Small ice particles known to fall from the sky during winter in new england and sometimes during fall and spring as well. We have not seen much snow this season and we had more than our fill last winter lets face it, memories are short. And there may be some of you new to the garden of eden unfamiliar with snowstorms. So, heres a quick reminder of what snow does and how to deal with it. First if you plan to drive to work this morning leave extra time for several reasons. You must thoroughly remove all you take it on the road. Not just a grapefruit sized hole in the windshield to pier through. Failure to do so is against the law and will earn you the utter contempt of other drivers. Especially the ones who get the snow on your roof deposited on their car when you hit the brakes. Then, theres the driving itself which will be slow going. Snow is wet and wet roads are slippery roads. Trust me on this. If you are planning on taking the t you might also encounter delays. See the mbta has been designed and maintained to run smoothly in all weather conditions. That might occur in san diego. New england weather not so much. And a final tip. When you shovel, lift with your knees not your arms or back and get it cleared away fast before it freezes. And dont think you can leave it for spring to take care of. Theres no telling when that may arrive. Keller wbztv. Com or via twitter at keller at large. Call this one another win wynn state ending the battle over the wynn project.

Temperatures at 39 on the east side of taughton at taughton the colder air is coming so the rain snow line will continue to press south and east here so bridgewater and plymouth is next. Precipitation comes down harder, too, we are getting wet snowflakes that mix in and that may be the case east of there as well. Snowflakes coming downright here at wbz studios and some of the deeper blues indicate where the snow is coming down at a steadier calypso have an email from mark that said an inch of snow on ground and we are talking about sterling to clinton back up near boxboro and thats where we have the moderate burst of snowch anticipating conditions to deteriorate on the roads over the next several hours as that band shifts east and that rain snow line continues to transition through mid to late morning on the cape. We have had reports all morning coming in and Pamela Gardner is standing by with the weather watcher reports. We are always thankful for these. They are valuable especially when we are dealing with the rain to snow transition.

But heading to the south and east here, we are experiencing more rain according to denise in plymouth and its a wind driven rain.

That rain snow line you mentioned coming into plymouth in the next hour or so. You are seeing the wet flakes mix in southeastern mass by 8 a. M. The rain snow line by thecape in the upper cape and then transitioning last from nantucket it may take until midday until early afternoon. Snow continues on through the early afternoon. So deeper blues burst of moderate and at times heavy snow as much as an inch per hour at times and the clearing comes in snow as in worcester around 2 gib or take. 3 in the city of boston and then farther south of east and intensity tapers off. Snowfall total accumulation 4 to 8 inches and big swath from mass. 2 to 4 taking longer to make the transition over the cape and islands like a coating to two on nantucket and well north and west of the boston.
