What a crazy band in Eastern MA. Snow rates are heavy. Those under that band (which was in NE CT earlier) will pick up another 2-4" of snow.


notice the wind chills in Western PA. Check out the OBS for Marthas Vineyard where its snowing there now.

Flurrying here. We will get these on and off snow showers today.
