Most of Eastern and Central Massachusetts is expected to get at least 3 inches of snow on Thursday.

The National Weather Service is predicting 3-4 inches for most of Eastern and Central Massachusetts and 4-6 inches for the South Shore and parts of North Central Massachusetts. Cape Cod and the Islands are expected to only get 1-3 inches except for the Upper Cape, which may get 3-4 inches.

The snow is expected to start on Wednesday night and last into Thursday evening.

Though the NWS is not predicting a major storm, any snow will complicate problems for an area that has seen two major storms in a week. Parts of Massachusetts have picked up more than four feet of snow and schools have been cancelled for at least four days in most communities over the past week.
