With the first winter storm of the season bearing down on the southern New England coast, the big question is whether the precipitation, expected to start Wednesday night, will be in the form of rain or snow, or even a mix.
As of late Monday afternoon, the forecast models did not agree on whether the system would be centered offshore or on the coast and where the storm tracks will determine how much snow the area receives.
While some forecasters are predicting up to a foot of snow, National Weather Service meteorologist Bill Simpson said it was too early to say how much snow the storm will bring.
