The National Weather Service (NWS) has upgraded a Winter Storm Watch to a Winter Storm Warning in advance of a weather system forecast to deliver another batch of snowfall to Lincoln County beginning Weds. morning.
The potential exists for significant snowfall accumulating to 10-15 inches by late Weds. night, according to the NWS. Some forecasts are indicating that immediate coastal areas and peninsulas in Lincoln County may see less snowfall accumulation as some precipitation may fall as rain or mix.
The Storm Warning is effect from 10 a.m. Weds. to 7 a.m. on Thurs., according to the NWS.
The snowfall will arrive courtesy of a low front forecast to deepen near Cape Cod on Weds. then chug northeasterly through the Gulf of Maine during the day.
The NWS warns that driving will be dangerous during the heaviest snowfall, which is forecast for Weds. evening and may include the evening commute.
The Lincoln County News website will continue to follow the progress of this event and post any additional information here as it becomes available.
