Say it ain’t snow! First flakes of the season on the way for parts of Massachusetts

WORCESTER, Mass. — Some parts of Massachusetts will see snow this week when a storm packing heavy precipitation moves in.

“Another storm is on the way Tuesday night into Wednesday. Temperatures will be warm enough for most of our area to support rain. The higher elevations and interior spots will see the first snowflakes of the season,” Boston 25 Meteorologist Shiri Spear wrote in her latest weather blog.

The snowfall isn’t expected to amount to much, but it could cause slick travel conditions.

Higher elevations in Worcester County and Western Massachusetts could see 1 to 2 inches of snow, while other areas could get a coating. Points closer to the coast will be in for rain.

Flakes will likely start flying between 10 p.m. Tuesday and midnight Wednesday.

“Elevations will take the brunt of this first snow,” Spear wrote in a tweet.

In addition to the first snow and rainstorm, temperatures will run below average all week.
