Snow showers on Wednesday afternoon through Thursday will likely drop a few inches of snow on most of Rhode Island.

One to 4 inches is expected to hit the region, according to the National Weather Service.

The snow is expected to start mid-afternoon on Wednesday and fall sporadically all the way into Thursday night.

Fog and strong winds are possible on Thursday and the wind chill is expected to drop to below zero on Thursday night.

Once the snow leaves on Thursday, the forecast is for partly sunny and chilly on Friday and Saturday before the next chance of snow arrives on Saturday night and Sunday. Weather forecasters said the weekend storm may wind up being a mix of rain, snow and ice.
