Wintry Weather Blast Cancels All Beverly After School Sports Monday

BEVERLY, MA — A swath of wintry weather forecast for Monday afternoon caused the cancellation of all afternoon and evening after-school sports at Beverly High School.

The potentially most severe snowstorm of the 2022-23 winter will be seen across the state by Monday afternoon, according to forecasts, as rain turns to sleet and then all snow that could be heavy at times.

"Moderate to heavy snow at times this afternoon, impacting the late day commute, with snow-covered roads," the National Weather Service predicted early Monday.

There's also a coastal flood advisory for shoreline areas in Essex County, Boston and down through Cape Cod.
