In the meantime, the most recent forecast continues to show
widespread accumulating snow and ice for much of interior Southern New England
late this afternoon through Friday morning. Locally, a Winter Weather
Advisory is in effect from 7 PM this evening to 7 AM Friday morning for Hampden
and Hampshire Counties of Massachusetts for 2-4" of snow with isolated
amounts to 6" and a coating to two-tenths of an inch of ice. A Winter
Weather Advisory is also in effect for Franklin and Western Hampshire Counties
of Massachusetts from 7 PM Thursday Evening to 9 AM Friday Morning for
3-6" of snow with isolated higher amounts to 8" and up to one-tenth
of an inch of ice. The weight of snow and ice across the area may cause
isolated pockets of tree and wire damage and isolated power outages.
As usual, it’s almost always the ice and freezing rain
that’s truly problematic. Stay safe – and if you are still catching up on your
winter weather prep, here’s a handy guide from the National Weather Service.
