Westford Turns Into Winter Wonderland, 2 Inches Possible

WESTFORD, MA — If you've looked out your window this morning, you might notice the rain has turned to snow. According to the National Weather Service it will likely switch back to rain at some point.

And as shocking as this may seem for those of us who were ready — or already did — break out the shorts and tank tops, this isn't so unusual for our area.

Last April 18, the temps dipped down to the 40s and 30s after a week in the 60s and blanked the tulips and daffodils in a half an inch of snow.

The National Weather Service said way back in 2007, there was a storm that brought some pretty heavy rain that wreaked havoc in the area.

Rain and snow. High near 37. North wind 9 to 15 mph, with gusts as high as 31 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. Total daytime snow accumulation of 1 to 2 inches possible.
