ACTON, MA — Another round of snow showers is on the way, prompting a winter weather advisory from the National Weather Service from noon today until 7 p.m. Feb. 19.

Flakes should start falling late Thursday afternoon, through Friday leaving Acton with up to six inches of accumulation by Friday night.

Snow will begin in the mid-afternoon Thursday and precipitation might not let up until early Saturday morning, NBC10 Boston meteorologist Aaron Perry said in an email.

"It is looking like the coastal system is going to take a more southern track, leading to a slower and more prolonged scenario for Southern New England," Perry said.
