BOSTON—The second winter storm in four days to hit the Northeast is expected to bring blizzard conditions to southeastern Massachusetts on Monday and leave behind as much as 18 inches of snow.
Snow from the storm bearing down on New England could last into Tuesday, when New Hampshire’s first-in-the nation presidential primary is held. It’s accompanied by high winds that could gust up to 65 mph in the hardest hit areas and bring power failures.
Much of the rest of Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and most of Connecticut are under a winter storm warning and could get as much as 10 inches of snow, according to the National Weather Service. A coastal flood warning has also been issued.
