The advisory is in effect beginning at 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday in Eastern Franklin, Northern Worcester, Northwest Middlesex County, Western Franklin, Western Hampden, Western Hampshire, Northern Berkshire, and Southern Berkshire. The advisory goes until 7 p.m. on Wednesday.
“Light snow is on the way tonight, but there will also be some light freezing rain to deal with at times through Wednesday,” said Meteorologist Vicki Graf.
Most of the snow will fall in the overnight hours and not affect any of the commutes.
“We will start to see minor accumulation with up to 2″ of snow in the higher elevations into early Wednesday morning,” Graf said in her morning forecast.
Snow will taper early in the day on Wednesday, with some patchy and light freezing drizzle that will linger at times through Wednesday afternoon.
