Up To Ten Inches Expected in Andover, Parking Ban in Effect

By the time the snow stops, Andover could get between 6-10 inches of snow accumulation.

The heaviest snow should have already fallen but we could end up getting the better part of a foot of snow just as it was melting away.

According to the lastest forecasts from the National Weather Service in Taunton, a winter weather advisory is in effect beginning 7 a.m. Thursday but the bulk of snow is not expected to fall until Thursday night into Friday morning.

Andover is now looking at a total of 6-10 inches of snow accumulation from this storm and Friday commuters may be looking at a slow drive into work.
