The National Weather Service in Wakefield issued a winter storm warning of up to 8 inches of snow for our area starting Wednesday morning – the third straight snowfall in the past month and the most significant to date.
“Travel will be difficult to impossible over portions of the area Wednesday and Thursday,” the weather service’s statement said.
Snow will be heaviest the further east you go, with the lower Peninsula and the Norfolk/Virginia Beach areas potentially receiving up to a foot of snow.
It will start snowing late Wednesday morning, but the bulk of snow should fall Wednesday afternoon into the first half of Thursday, according to the weather service.
