Snowfall forecast for Massachusetts for Saturday, Jan. 29, 2022 (National Weather Service) |
.
The storm is here. And with as much as 10 inches already reported on the ground in Eastern Massachusetts by 10:00 am, we’re in for a big one.
The updated forecast from the National Weather Service Saturday morning wasn’t pulling any punches.
“A powerful winter storm with near-record snowfall, blizzard conditions, near hurricane-force wind gusts, and coastal flooding will impact much of Southern New England Saturday into Saturday evening,” the agency said.
What has changed in the forecast is that line of really high snow totals has pushed further west, encompassing more of the state.
A whopping 24 to 30 inches is expected to hit Boston and much of Southeastern Massachusetts.
And although the forecasted totals decrease as one heads west, most of the state is expected to get more than a foot of snow. The western end of the Berkshires is the only part of the state expected to be spared
the heavy snowfall with 4 to 6 inches expected there.
Thundersnow — thunder during a snowstorm — was reported in Attleboro just before 11:00 am. More
