Here's how much snow has fallen in Mass. storm Jan. 28-29, 2024

Here’s how much snow has fallen in Massachusetts thus far

PARTS OF THE STATE PICKING UP MORE THAN A HALF A FOOT OF SNOW FROM THE STORM THAT STARTED YESTERDAY. BUT YOU CAN SEE NEW IPSWICH, NEW HAMPSHIRE COMING IN WITH THE HIGHEST TOTAL CLOSE TO NINE INCHES OF SNOW, BUT OVER EIGHT INCHES IN ASHBY ASHBURNHAM, SEVEN AND A HALF STERLING, SIX AND A HALF, AND OFFICIALLY IN WORCESTER. AT THE AIRPORT, ALMOST FIVE INCHES OF SNOW. AND THAT’S WHERE WE EXPECTED THE HIGHEST TOTALS HERE. NORTH AND WEST OF 495, AND PARTICULARLY WITH ELEVATION. THIS IS WHERE WE HAD COLD ENOUGH AIR FOR THE DURATION OF THE STORM. WE HAD A LOT OF MIXING EAST OF THERE, AND THAT HELD THE AMOUNTS DOWN SLOPPY 2 TO 4IN FOR A LOT OF SPOTS. BETWEEN 495 AND 128, AND THEN CLOSER TO THE COASTLINE, AN EVEN LOWER AMOUNTS AND SOUTH EASTON. MASSACHUSETTS HAS SEEN MAINLY RAIN. YOU’RE ACTUALLY TRANSITIONING OVER TO SOME OCEAN EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS THAT COULD PRODUCE A COATING TO AN INCH OF SNOW, AND THIS WOULD COME IN DURING THE COURSE OF THE MIDDAY AFTERNOON AND INTO TONIGHT. IT’S GOING TO TAKE UNTIL TONIGHT BEFORE A LOT OF WHAT FALLS WILL ACTUALLY STICK AS WE’VE GOT COLDER AIR WRAPPING IN ON THE BACKSIDE OF OUR STORM HERE. BUT IT’S PULLING AWAY NOW, SO WE ARE SEEING THE SNOW TAPER OFF IN MOST AREAS. ANYTHING FROM THIS POINT ON IS REALLY GOING TO BE DRIVEN BY OCEAN ENHANCEMENT AND OCEAN EFFECT SNOW. LOOK AT THE WINDS. THEY’RE GUSTING OVER 30MPH. STILL HERE DOWN TOWARD THE CAPE AND NANTUCKET. AND THIS IS WHERE THE WIND IS GOING TO PERSIST TODAY. DRAWING IN THAT COLDER AIR. AND AS IT RIDES OVER THE RELATIVELY WARMER OCEAN WATERS, THAT’S HOW WE’RE GOING TO SEE THOSE OCEAN EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS DEVELOP. BUT TEMPERATURES HOLD PRETTY MUCH WHERE THEY ARE IN THE MID FEW UPPER 30S RIGHT THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. THAT WIND BLOWING WILL MAKE IT FEEL JUST A LITTLE COLDER. YOU CAN SEE BY MIDDAY THOSE OCEAN EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS ARE DEVELOPING, BUT AGAIN MINIMAL IMPACT DURING THE DAYLIGHT HOURS AS TEMPERATURES ARE GOING TO BE HOVERING JUST ABOVE THE FREEZING MARK. ONCE THE SUN GOES DOWN TONIGHT, THAT’S WHEN ANY LINGERING SNOW SHOWERS COULD PRODUCE A COATING TO UP TO AN INCH OF SNOW AND ELSEWHERE IT’S GOING TO BE DRY WITH SOME PARTIAL CLEARING. TONIGHT. WATCH OUT FOR SOME SLICK SPOTS WITH A REFREEZE OVERNIGHT AS TEMPERATURES FALL BACK INTO THE TEENS AND 20S TONIGHT FOR OVERNIGHT LOWS, SUN AND CLOUDS. TOMORROW IT IS A COLD DAY. THE WINDS WILL SETTLE DOWN THOUGH, BUT THE TEMPERATURES STRUGGLE TOMORROW. UPPER 20S TO AROUND 30 DEGREES. THAT’S ALL. WE’RE HEADED TO ON YOUR TUESDAY. BUT A QUIET STRETCH AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS ON IN THAT WILL SUPPRESS ANY STORMINESS TO OUR SOUTH THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. SO IT’S A DRY STRETCH FOR A CHANGE. TEMPERATURES START TO MODERATE AGAIN TOWARD THE END OF THE WEEK. WE WILL WATCH A WEAK SYSTEM THAT COULD BRING A FEW RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS ON FRIDAY, AND BEHIND THAT ONE,
