Watch NECN's continuous live coverage of Saturday's historic winter storm, which is set to bring over 2 feet of snow to parts of New England.
The snow continues to pick up in waves of intensity. Plow trucks will have a hard time keeping up with the rapid snowfall rates of 1 to 2 inches plus per hour and at times in eastern New England in the most intense snow bands, 2 to 4 inches per hour.
In the heaviest snow bands, we will see over 30 inches of snow. That could set up over areas just northwest of Boston to the Merrimack Valley as well as the South Shore. This set up may give one community 18 inches, and another 30 inches in a 5-mile stretch. Thundersnow is also likely with these intense bands.
Winds continues to intensify. Gusts from the northeast will push 40 to 50 mph along routes 128, 495, to Worcester. Thirty to 40 mph gusts across Springfield and Vermont to interior New Hampshire. At the coast of Maine, New Hampshire, and all of eastern Massachusetts to southern Rhode Island we will see gusts of 50 to 70 mph or greater in isolated spots.
