This storm was definitely a powerful nor'easter. In general, the Boston area has received 12 to18 inches of snow.

Things have changed dramatically since Saturday when there was some snow in the Boston area. The average high in Boston is 55 degrees at this time of year and we're projecting 68 to 70 degrees.

Solid men of Boston, banish long potations! Solid men of Boston, make no long orations!

This is as much snow as we've seen in the last 15 years, and we got it all in one whack.

Wednesday night we have a chance of snow or rain and temperatures will be in the low 30s. That will continue into Thursday, but it's not going to be a big storm. It's going to be more of a nuisance - there shouldn't be any accumulation that effects anything in a negative way.

We expect the snow to begin around 6 to 8 p.m. and continue into early Sunday afternoon.
