Boston, MA – Light snow will fall across parts of Massachusetts tonight, primarily impacting Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard, and Nantucket.
Snowfall is expected between 8 p.m. Tuesday and 4 a.m. Wednesday. Accumulations will remain light, ranging from 1 to 3 inches. According to the National Weather Service (NWS) in Boston, snow will easily coat cold road surfaces, creating slick driving conditions.
The heaviest snowfall will likely occur over Nantucket and parts of Martha’s Vineyard. Areas further inland may see less than 1 inch. Commuters and travelers in the region should use caution and allow extra time on untreated roads.
The NWS advises residents to monitor updates and avoid unnecessary travel during this time. Road crews are expected to treat major routes, but secondary roads may remain slippery overnight.
The snowfall comes amid otherwise mild January weather, with daytime highs returning to the upper 30s later this week. Residents can expect clear skies after sunrise Wednesday.
