2 to 4 Inches of Snow Likely in Amherst Tonight into Saturday

The National Weather Service is advising we may see our first accumulating snowfall of the season Friday, in Cheshire and Hillsborough counties.

According to a special weather statement, rain is expected to mix with snow before changing over completely to snow.

Snow may be heavy at times between 10 p.m. and 1 a.m. and then taper off as dawn approaches, depending on where you are. 

Accumulations of 2-4 inches are likely, with a few areas possibly reaching 5-6 inches, depending upon the duration of the heavier snowfall.
