Are lower because the steadiest snow never really got going into the city until late morning. Again, we are farther from the storm than they are on cape cod. Boston officially so far 2. 2 inches of snow. Lunenburg, concord, bridgewater area between three and four inches of snow. So moving forward again light snow continuing up until about midnight tonight with an additional snow. In terms of coastal gladding, we will watch the 11 00 p. M. High tide but i dont think it will be muff of a concern because less win wind and tides themself lower but there might be pockets of minutor coastal flooding. This morning we had a moderate coastal flooding. Still snowing across much of southern new england at this time. The deeper shades of green indicating where we have stead steadier snow and that is focus focused in preliminary euthanasia and brings come taunt taunty down along route 3, route 24, then north across metro boston again, patchy, light snow this on the convenient is overwhelming for the road crews so that is why if you have travel plans it evening, you can certainly make those plans just allow extra time because it will be a little bit gracy out there. Your 7 on 7 forecast again noticing that as we move the storm time line through the evening hours, dryer air begins to chew away at that band of snow and it all wind down just after midnight tonight to just a couple flurries. This is how much snow you will have again anywhere between five and nine informs of snow. I think for metro boston inside 128 probably closer to five than nine inches of snow and the down along the south shore to the canal 9 to upwards of 12 inches of snow by very late tonight and early tomorrow morning. Chris . Anchor biggest concern was coastal flood an and very strong winds to go along with heavy snow. Nantucket gusting well over 60 Miles Per Hour. Close to 65 earlier. Edgartown 57. Rockport 57. Because of those strong an shore winds we did have coastal flooding during the midday high the south shore as well as nantucket as we go into this evenings high tide just after 11 00 we have a coastal blood advisory in place. Not expecting a moderate al flooding but still minor coastal flooding of the thing about tonights high tide tides astronomically a half foot to too foot lower also winds out of the north and not out of the northeast and less of a component pinning water toward the coastline and wind wont be quite as strong as what they were earlier this morning into the early afternoon hours. Still gusting to 28 in the city of boston. 36 in plymouth. 47 hyannis. 44 nantucket. So well deal with the gusty winds through the evening although tonight these winds do subside. Well only gust to 15 to 20 Miles Per Hour from boston west overnight tonight. Still to 30 down through the diminish tonight. Anchor officials in dangerous driving conditions today and telling people to stay off the roads if you dont need to be out. There sam caputo is in dorchester.

We were on 93 southbound and leaving the city not an awful lot of cars and as you see in front of me right now 93 south while wet not all that slick. Not a lot of snow on the actual road itself. Right now its almost really flowerying outside and boston here south of boston in the quincy area. Not terrible at the moment but obviously the farther south you go the worst conditions are. Some of side streets in the city itself and just south of the city a little slushy. A little bit wet but not too bad bad. The plow has been keeping up because the snow hasnt been coming down as a strong rate. Its been steady throughout and the folks on the road everyone seems to be taking it slowly but obviously with this snowstorm continuing at least for a couple more hours you could have some slick roads especially down in the south shore and thats where we are headed right now. Anchor that looks encourag encouraging for people who are about to get out there and head home because roads look good at this hour. Just the fact it was this lighter, fluffier snow its easier for plows to keep up with with. There still is a blizzard warning for some people. Its not pretty out there. Flooding is a major concern with that storm. Anchor of course those a along the shore are seeing some of the worst of that. We have a team of reporters covering this storm. Lets go out now to Brandon Gunnoe live in scituate and that looks like a tough place to be. Im not sure that we got the memo this storm was starting to wind down bass for some reason the last probably 30 minutes it seems like the wind are really picking up here along the water in scituate but what is much better is today around some time between 10 30 and 11 11 30 during high tide. This is it lighthouse road which leads to scituate lighthouse and this just picture this entire road in this entire area was completely covered in water during that high tide so the that is good news. Not too many Power Outages from what were hearing but as you can see the snow is blowing sideways and winds are still quite strong.

High tide causing flood concerns around town neck beach. The high winds threatening to knock out power. Another concern with the heavy waves in the high wind is beach erosion. With the storms weve lost so much beach and erosion and even the home owners its been horrible the money they had to pay. Getly said the town just completed a project to restore the beach after a major storm washed away 8 feet of shoreline. I just hope we dont lose another 8 to ten feet in this storm.

Anchor of course we keep a close eye on the conditions right here in boston. Anchor the storm is on friday and today giving kids an extra long weekend. City. What you can tell us, bree . Its interesting i think thats mother natures way of saying that we should always have a snow day the day after the super bowl because we did this last year as well although the snow amounts very, very different. By this time last year boston had already picked up more than four feet of snow make being for even nine foot snow drifts and this is all were dealing with here today. This is because of all of the shoving that they have done as the day went on. The total for boston today, 2. 2 inches which is not a whole lot considering that its fluffy powdery snow that should pile up very quickly although that measurement was reported at 1 00 p. M. So i imagine its a little higher at this point. As you checked in with me an hour ago we really had some good snowflakes coming down. Some big ones but here just more like flurries that are blowing around that wind still pretty significant so if you are headed out which a lot of people are out, kind of business as usual as we head through this monday afternoon and evening just make temperatures in the teens around wind chills close to zero degrees.
