With a winter storm warning in effect from 7 a.m. Sunday through 8 p.m. Monday, residents should brace for travel disruptions and significant accumulations across the region[1][2].
Snowfall Expectations by Area and Timeline
Snow begins lightly Sunday morning around 8-11 a.m., intensifying after 2 p.m. with rates up to 2 inches per hour, potentially mixing with sleet on the South Coast by evening[3]. Expect 13-19 inches statewide, with some spots near Boston reaching up to two feet by Monday[1][2]. Sunday night could pile on 7-11 inches, followed by 2-4 more Monday amid gusty winds up to 35 mph and wind chills near -4[1]. Interior areas like northern Bristol County may see 14-20 inches total[3].

Stock up on essentials, clear driveways early, and monitor updates as conditions evolve into Tuesday's clearer skies[1]. This nor'easter promises power outages and school closures, marking a true test of winter readiness for Bay Staters[2]. Stay safe amid the blizzard fury.
