Faster than expected is good. Does this mean the evening commute will be better?
Yes, we expect the snow to end by 5 pm in RI.
Thanks Fred.
Thanks Fred.
Fred- seems like a lot of dry air is sucking up anything thats trying to fall over west glocester. the sun just came out briefly! I know this will not last, but it seems like this could be even more of a minor storm than originally thought. What do you think?
Snow picking up here in North Tiverton.
Hi Fred – Earlier you were thinking that the snow in RI will be over by 5pm. Is it moving even faster now? I’m curious when the snow will end specifically in the Providence metro area. Thanks!
Roads are horrendous in North Tiverton. Even the main roads are bad right now. Be safe, everyone!
4.5 inches on the Providence Johnston line, off of Rt.6 as of 2:15pm
4.5 was the final accumulation in western providence. It’s already compacted down about .6 inches since the changeover.
Seems to be just about over in new bedford. How does it look heading to Westfield? I need to make that trek later on today.
The storm will be over everywhere between those two points by 5 pm.
