WHDH is reporting we will get more snow Sunday morning, followed by clearing in the afternoon.
Ready for more snow? Well, we're getting some more this morning along more wind. WHDH is reporting another 4-6 inches in the a.m. hours, followed by gusty winds in the afternoon. "Despite this not being a repeat of last weekend, there will be several hours that this storm packs a punch in terms of falling snow and wind," wrote WHDH's Chris Lambert on his weather blog. "Moderate to heavy snow, combined with an active wind does reduce visibility through late morning Sunday, creating tricky travel. As ugly as it'll look in the morning, much of the snow is done by noon, with the exception of the Cape and Islands, and perhaps some lingering light snow at the coast." Temperatures are expected to be in the 20s today before warming up to the 30s …

WHDH is forecasting more snow for Thursday morning.
We'll have two more days to clear out the snow before another storm hits us. WHDH-TV is predicting three to six more inches of snow early Thursday morning. WHDH's Chris Lambert writes on his weather blog: "We catch a two day break before more snow tracks toward New England overnight Wednesday and Thursday morning. Looks like a quick hitter with a few inches of snow possible from Worcester to Boston, with lighter amounts north, and heavier amounts south. Indications are most of SE Mass will be in the 3-6" range. It's an early look at this storm, so the bands may get adjusted north or south. With a fast west to east movement of the storm, I don't expect this to become a blockbuster snow and wind event. However, I do expect more …
