Will the South End see six inches of snow this weekend, or will we see more like three inches with rain mixed in?
The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Storm Watch from Saturday afternoon through Sunday afternoon. The NWS said 3 inches of snow or more is possible and warned of heavy wet snow that may fall at 1 to 2 inches per hour. Snow may mix with rain in the South End area.
The NWS warned that the heavy wet snow could bring down tree limbs and result in scattered power outages.
Here is a look at the snowfall estimates for Boston as of 10 a.m. Friday:
- Channel 4 (WBZ): 4 to 6 inches south of the Mass Pike, including Boston; 6 to 12 inches north of the Mass Pike
- Channel 5 (WCBV): 3 to 6 inches south of the Mass Pike, including Boston; 6 to 9 inches north of the Mass Pike
- Channel 7 (WHDH): 3 to 6 inches closer to Boston; 6 to 10 inches just north and west of Boston
- NECN: 6 inches
Channel 7 meteorologist Pete Bouchard wrote on his weather blog:
Storm start-up still looks like Saturday afternoon. We’ll still be able to get around and the amounts will be light through midnight – in fact, we may even mix from Boston to the South Shore. (Cape sees rain.)
After midnight, the storm will get a little meatier. Snow intensity will increase into Sunday morning.
Heavy snow through Sunday morning.
Tapering to flurries by mid afternoon on Sunday
There is a lot of water being thrown around in the atmosphere, and with marginally cold temps, this will result in a heavy, wet snow in many spots. Even in Worcester county, it will make for good snowballs and snowpeople. On the South Shore, it will cake to the trees and power lines – so there might be more power outages.

I do feel like I spent an inordinate amount of time on the far more traditional gameplay elements, which may possibly make the meaning of the game a bit unclear. Should you mess about with it though, you will discover it. 312003
