Another winter storm is heading for Southern New England on Tuesday. The storm may bring snow and rain to the coast, but it will be all snow inland, and some accumulation is likely. Areas north of the Massachusetts Turnpike could pick up about 6″ of snow in the afternoon and early evening. A Winter Storm Warning has been posted. Between the I-95 corridor and the MA Pike there may be several inches of snow, and a Winter Weather Advisory is in effect. See below for more details.
