Snowfall Predictions Vary Largely for Friday Storm
It's going to snow this weekend, but how much will we get?
The state and national news networks all agree on one thing, there is a storm coming to town for Friday and Saturday.
What they don't agree on is how much snowfall you're going to see. As of Wednesday morning, estimates range from 3 inches to nearly 2 feet.
In the Braintree area, the National Weather Service as of Wednesday morning was predicting snow to start early Friday morning, last through midday Saturday and drop just a few inches of snow.
