National Weather Service Once Again Increases Expected Snowfall As We Prepare For Heavy Snow

The National Weather Service (NWS) has potential snow totals yet again as we move closer to the start of storm– currently expected to begin between 9pm-11pm tonight.

Now, the expected snowfall map shows a range of 8-12” for much of the area with northern areas in the 6-8” range. The “high end amount” has been increased to 13-16” while the “low end amount” is now up to 4 inches for most of the area.

The NWS writes, “Be ready for heavy snow tonight-Monday AM. This will severely hamper transportation. It is highly recommended to postpone non-essential travel.” Precipitation is expended to end by 11pm Monday-1am Tuesday.
