DEDHAM, Mass — While the snow will gradually taper off by the time of Wednesday’s morning commute, snow piling alongside roadways may pose a slight visibility hazard.
Lingering Winter Weather and High Wind advisories will be lifted by Wednesday morning, according to Boston 25 News Meteorologist Kevin Lemanowicz.
Highways that are treated and cleared should be safe to drive on as temperatures won’t be cold enough for a flash freeze.
Snow began piling up in Western and Central Massachusetts late Monday into early Tuesday, while Eastern Massachusetts saw drenching rain. The rain-to-snow shift in Eastern Massachusetts happened after 12 p.m.
Points along the North Shores saw between 4 to 8 inches of snow. As of 6:00 p..m., Haverhill boasted the highest snow total with 8 inches. A coating to 2 inches of snow was expected on the Cape and the Islands.
Worcester was buried under 12 inches of snow, while some Worcester County towns at a higher elevation, like Princeton, were dumped with over 25 inches of powder.
